7 results about "Fan clutch" patented technology

A fan clutch is a thermostatic engine cooling fan that can freewheel at low temperatures when cooling is not needed, allowing the engine to warm up faster, relieving unnecessary load on the engine. As temperatures increase, the clutch engages so that the fan is driven by engine power and moves air to cool the engine.

An emergency engagement structure for a fan clutch

PendingCN122359158AMechanical fanDrive shaft
This invention discloses an emergency engagement structure for a fan clutch, relating to the field of engine cooling technology. It addresses the problem in mechanical fans with clutches where leakage of transmission oil within the clutch causes the fan to lose power and stop, leading to diesel engine overheating and shutdown. The emergency engagement structure includes a drive shaft, a driven shaft, and an engagement unit. The drive shaft is connected to the engine, and the driven shaft is mounted on the fan. The drive shaft transmits rotation to the driven shaft and the fan via transmission oil. The engagement unit is located within the hollow portion of the driven shaft and serves to rigidly connect the driven shaft to the drive shaft. The actuator of the engagement unit is an electric actuator that pushes a cylindrical pin through a through-hole in the side wall of the driven shaft, abutting against the drive shaft. This achieves a rigid connection between the driven and drive shafts, allowing the fan to continue operating without relying on transmission oil and preventing diesel engine overheating.

Silicone oil fan clutch and engine cooling system

PendingCN122428994AFan clutchSilicone oil
The application provides a silicone oil fan clutch and an engine cooling system. The silicone oil fan clutch comprises a clutch body and a clutch speed ratio control mechanism. The body is provided with an oil storage cavity with an oil outlet hole and an oil return hole. The control mechanism comprises a temperature sensing driving element and a valve plate assembly. The valve plate assembly has first and second adjusting parts corresponding to the oil outlet hole and the oil return hole respectively. When the temperature rises, the first adjusting part is first driven to increase the opening degree of the oil outlet hole, and then the second adjusting part is driven to reduce the opening degree of the oil return hole to a preset minimum value. When the temperature decreases, the action sequence is reversed. The application breaks through the limitation of traditional control of only the oil outlet and fixed oil return. In the medium and low temperature zone, the fan rotating speed, energy consumption and noise are effectively reduced by adjusting the oil return. In the high temperature zone, the high clutch speed ratio and the heat dissipation reliability are ensured by cooperative control. The whole process is pure mechanical linkage, which is fast in response and reliable in structure, and realizes reasonable matching of the speed ratio and optimization of energy efficiency under all working conditions.
