Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the lubricating oil supply of gas generators, specifically an automatic lubricating oil replenishment system for engines. Background Technology

[0002] During the operation of a gas generator, an adequate supply of lubricating oil is a crucial prerequisite for ensuring its safe and stable operation. Lubricating oil can form an effective lubricating film between the various components of the generator, reducing friction and wear between parts, thereby ensuring the smooth operation of core functions such as power transmission.

[0003] To meet the continuous lubrication requirements of gas generators, existing technologies typically equip them with dedicated lubrication oil tanks to store lubrication oil and replenish the lubrication system. However, current lubrication oil filling methods have significant limitations: Firstly, the operation of adding lubrication oil to the gas generator set's lubrication system mainly relies on manual timed operations or direct pump filling. This method cannot monitor the changes in the internal lubrication system of the gas generator set in real time, and therefore cannot automatically trigger oil replenishment based on the actual oil level. This leads to situations where lubrication oil is not added in a timely manner in practical applications. Once the lubrication system is short of oil, it will significantly accelerate the wear of components, thereby seriously affecting the service life of the gas generator and even potentially causing equipment failure. Secondly, the traditional direct pump filling method lacks a precise control mechanism, resulting in low accuracy in the filling amount. It is difficult to strictly match the actual needs of the lubrication system. This can lead to either overfilling, causing lubrication oil waste and increased system load, or underfilling, resulting in poor lubrication performance. Utility Model Content

The system is equipped with a replenishment pipeline that can replenish lubricating oil according to the lubricating oil level of the engine lubrication system, so that the engine has sufficient lubricating oil and ensures the efficient operation of the engine.

[0009] Optionally, the oil replenishment pipeline is provided with an oil outlet, which is located between the oil replenishment tank and the refueling branch connection point, and is used to drain the lubricating oil in the oil replenishment tank.

[0022] The embodiments of this application are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain this application, and should not be construed as limiting this application.

[0023] In this document, relational terms such as "first" and "second" are used merely to distinguish one entity or operation from another, without necessarily requiring or implying any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Furthermore, the terms "comprising," "including," or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such a process, method, article, or apparatus.

[0024] As described in the background section, to meet the continuous lubrication requirements of gas generators, existing technologies typically equip them with dedicated lubrication oil tanks to store lubrication oil and replenish the lubrication system. However, current lubrication oil filling methods have significant limitations: Firstly, the operation of adding lubrication oil to the gas generator set's lubrication system mainly relies on manual timed operations or direct pump filling. This method cannot monitor the liquid level changes within the gas generator set's internal lubrication system in real time, and therefore cannot automatically trigger oil replenishment based on the actual liquid level. This leads to situations where lubrication oil is not added in a timely manner in practical applications. Once the lubrication system is short of oil, it will significantly accelerate the wear of components, thereby seriously affecting the service life of the gas generator and potentially causing equipment failure. Secondly, the traditional direct pump filling method lacks a precise control mechanism, resulting in low accuracy in the filling amount. It is difficult to strictly match the actual needs of the lubrication system, which may lead to lubrication oil waste and increased system burden due to overfilling, or poor lubrication effect due to underfilling.

[0025] For the reasons mentioned above, this embodiment is as follows: Figures 1-6 As shown, an automatic engine lubricating oil replenishment system is provided, wherein the engine's lubrication system is connected to a lubricating oil filling line 200 (e.g., ...). Figure 3As shown, the oil filling passage is the lubricating oil filling pipeline. The oil replenishment system includes an oil replenishment pipeline 100 connected to the lubrication system. An oil replenishment tank 1 and an oil level maintainer 8 (such as...) are sequentially installed on this oil replenishment pipeline. Figure 2 As shown, the oil replenishment path is the oil replenishment pipeline.

[0026] The oil level maintainer is used to maintain the lubricating oil level in the lubrication system. For example, the oil level maintainer is an existing device, such as the YWO100A oil level maintainer manufactured by Fuchuang Power Control Technology (Qidong) Co., Ltd.

[0027] The lubricating oil filling pipeline includes a lubricating oil source, which is connected to the lubrication system through a filling pipeline equipped with a filling pump 6;

[0028] The oil replenishment line and the lubricating oil filling line share a common pipeline section 13, which is located between the oil pump and the oil level maintainer, and the flow direction is controlled by a valve.

[0029] The oil replenishment pipeline is provided with an oil outlet 14, which is located between the oil replenishment tank and the refueling branch line connection point, and is used to drain the lubricating oil from the oil replenishment tank.

[0030] The oil outlet 14 is also connected to the lubricating oil filling pipeline through a pipe with a valve, which is used to release the lubricating oil in the lubrication system.

[0031] The oil replenishment pipeline is connected to the lubricating oil filling pipeline through a pipe with a valve, and is used to fill the oil replenishment tank with lubricating oil.

[0032] The aforementioned technical features, through the set oil replenishment pipeline, can replenish lubricating oil according to the lubricating oil level of the engine lubrication system, ensuring that the engine has sufficient lubricating oil and guaranteeing efficient engine operation.

[0033] When using, such as Figure 2 As shown, the automatic oil replenishment of the oil tank 1 is achieved by opening ball valves A2, B5, C10, D11, and E12, while closing all other ball valves. The oil level maintainer 8 determines the level of lubricating oil in the engine. When the threshold is triggered, the lubricating oil in the oil tank enters the engine through the pipeline via the oil level maintainer 8, achieving the purpose of automatic oil replenishment. When the stop replenishment threshold is reached, replenishment stops.

[0034] like Figure 3As shown, when adding lubricating oil to the engine: open ball valves M4, H9, and E12, and close all other ball valves. Connect the oil pipe to the lubricating oil source (such as a lubricating oil container) at the oil inlet, and turn on the oil pump 6 (such as a gear oil pump). The engine oil can then enter the engine oil pan (i.e., the lubrication system) through the oil pump.

[0035] like Figure 4 As shown, to drain the engine lubricating oil: open ball valves F3, B5, G7, and E12, and close all other ball valves. Connect an oil pipe to the oil container at the oil outlet, and turn on the oil pump 6 (such as a gear oil pump). The engine oil can then be drained from the engine oil pan (i.e., the lubrication system) through the oil pump.

[0036] like Figure 5 As shown, to add lubricating oil to the replenishment tank: open ball valves A2 and M4, close all other ball valves, connect the oil pipe to the lubricating oil source (such as a lubricating oil drum) at the oil inlet, and turn on the oil pump 6. The lubricating oil can then enter the replenishment tank from the lubricating oil source through the oil pump 6.

[0037] like Figure 6 As shown, to drain lubricating oil from the oil tank: open ball valves A2 and F3, close all other ball valves, connect an oil pipe to the lubricating oil source (such as a lubricating oil tank) at the oil outlet, and the lubricating oil will be automatically drained by gravity or siphon.

Various modifications to these embodiments will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein may be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the present invention.
