[0009] A further improvement is that it also includes a lubricating oil pump. The upper end of the first gear shaft extends out of the housing body and is connected to the lubricating oil pump. The first gear shaft drives the lubricating oil pump to work and delivers lubricating oil to each bearing part through the oil passage.
[0010] A further improvement is that a filter is installed inside the housing, and the filter is connected to the oil passage.
[0011] Further improvements include: the main body of the tank is equipped with an oil drain plug, an oil level gauge, and a vent.
[0012] A further improvement is that internal splines for connecting the drive device and the water pump are respectively provided at both ends of the input shaft.
