The present invention rocking arm in the course of the work, slip cap between lock pin working end 92 therein and lock pin mounting hole 22
Connect, therefore, lock pin component can be moved between locking, unlocked position.When the oil pressure from hydraulic tappet is in low oil pressure shape
During state, lock pin 9 is in released state, now, and the lubricating oil oil pressure in lock pin shoe cream room 11 is not enough to promote lock pin 9 to transport to the right
Dynamic, the first oily passage 91 is connected with the first fuel feed hole 21, and then, the lubricating oil from tappet can pass through the quilt of the first fuel feed hole 21
It is introduced into the first oily passage 91, fuel feeding is carried out to lock pin shoe cream room 11 simultaneously also by the first fuel feed hole 21, it is logical into the first oil
Lubricating oil in road 91 is guided and sprayed to the surface of roller 6 by the first oily passage 91.In order that lubrication of the injection to the surface of roller 6
Oil mass is tried one's best many, and ensures that flow through the lubricating oil on the surface of roller 6 as often as possible can enter back-moving spring from the second fuel feed hole 32
In the inner chamber of seat 3, the diameter of the first oily passage 91 is smaller and unsuitable excessive, to cause in low oil pressure state, by the
The lubricating oil of one oily passage 91 can be injected into the upper surface of roller 6 with larger flow velocity, so that pair roller 6 is moistened
It is sliding.Because the second fuel feed hole 32 is the radial direction through hole that is communicated with the inner chamber of return spring holder 3, therefore, roller 6 can be by above it
A part for lubricating oil is splashed by the second fuel feed hole 32 in the inner chamber of return spring holder 3, meanwhile, also by the lubricating oil above it
Another part splash return spring holder 3 and the quiet relative sliding contact face of rocking arm 2 gap in, with to return spring holder 3 with

Loss, is conducive to improving the reliability and durability of the reset assembly mechanism of motion rocker arm 10.Profit into the inner chamber of return spring holder 3
Lubricating oil flows out to quiet rocking arm by the second oily slow guiding of passage 24 again and contacted with valve stem on R faces 5, so as to quiet rocking arm and gas
Door rod contact R faces 5 are effectively lubricated, therefore, and the frictional dissipation and contact effectively alleviated in the rocking arm course of work is dynamic
It can be lost, improve the abrasion durability degree of rocking arm, improve the working environment of rocking arm and valve tappet.
It should be noted that, lock pin working end 92 therein is pacified with lock pin due to rocking arm of the invention in the course of the work
Dress is slidably socketed between hole 22, and therefore, lock pin working end 92 may occur in sliding process relative to lock pin mounting hole 22
Rotate, the first oily passage 91 is misplaced with the first fuel feed hole 21, so as to cause the lubricating oil entered in the first oily passage 91
Amount is not enough, influences the lubricant effect of rocking arm.In order to ensure that enough lubricants capacities can enter in the first oily passage 91, it is ensured that shake
The lubrication needs of arm, can be set on lock pin working end 92 into oil ring groove 96, it is described enter the oily passage 91 of oil ring groove 96 and first
It is mutually communicated, as shown in Figure 1, shown in Figure 5.Therefore, one can be collectively forming by entering oil ring groove 96 and the wall of lock pin mounting hole 22
Annular oil suction chamber, can ensure the oil inlet quantity of the first oily passage 91 using the annular oil suction chamber, so that it is guaranteed that rocking arm work when institute
The lubricants capacity needed.
In quiet rocking arm 2, because the second oily passage 24 is provided in the bottom of return spring holder mounting groove 23 and is shaken close to quiet
Arm contacts R faces 5 with valve stem, and the second oily one end of passage 24 has connected the intracavity bottom of return spring holder 3, to ensure back-moving spring
Lubricating oil in 3 inner chambers of seat can be directed out completely, it is to avoid lubricating oil is stored within return spring holder mounting groove 23, should
The second oily other end of passage 24 then connects quiet rocking arm and R faces 5 is contacted with valve stem but R faces are not contacted with valve stem by the quiet rocking arm
5, therefore, the lubricating oil being directed by the second oily passage 24 slowly infiltrates in the presence of gravity and rocking arm oscillating motion
R faces 5 are contacted with valve stem to the quiet rocking arm, so that it is by sufficient lubrication.
When the oil pressure from hydraulic tappet is in high oil pressure state, lubricating oil is directed into after lock pin shoe cream room 11,
The lubricating oil of high oil pressure in lock pin shoe cream room 11 will promote lock pin 9 to move right, and lock pin 9 is in locking shape
State, now, the oil supply gallery between the first oily fuel feed hole 21 of passage 91 and first are cut off, i.e., the entrance quilt of the first oily passage 91
Cut-out, to ensure lock pin 9 will not be influenceed to work the pressure release of lock pin shoe cream room 11.Therefore, the self-lubricating passage quilt of whole rocking arm
Cut-out, the surface of roller 6, return spring holder 3 contact R faces 5 with valve stem not with the quiet relative sliding contact face of rocking arm 2 and quiet rocking arm
More lubricating oil are received again, but rely on the lubricating oil remained before the switch operating of lock pin 9 to keep lubrication.
First the 21, first oily passage 91 of fuel feed hole, the center line of second the 32, second oily passage 24 of fuel feed hole in the present invention
It is preferably on same plane, can so ensures that the flow velocity of lubricating oil in the self-lubricating passage of whole rocking arm is uniform, carry
The lubricant effect of high rocking arm.If it should be noted that do not prevented between return spring holder 3 and return spring holder mounting groove 23
Turn design, in the rocking arm course of work, return spring holder 3 can be installed relative to return spring holder mounting groove 23 around return spring holder
The center line of groove 23 is rotated, and the through hole direction for making the second fuel feed hole 32 is no longer aligned with the direction of roller 6 by this, so as to finally cause quiet shake
Arm is contacted with valve stem can not receive enough lubricating oil on R faces 5, have impact on lubricant effect.Therefore, as shown in figure 4, can be with
Convex shoulder 31 is set on return spring holder 3, second fuel feed hole 32 be located at convex shoulder 31 and the bottom lock end of return spring holder 3 it
Between, annular groove 14, the oil of annular groove 14 and first can be formed between return spring holder 3 and quiet rocking arm 2 at convex shoulder 31
Passage 91 is communicated, as shown in Figure 1;Meanwhile, the second described fuel feed hole 32 sets several, and the second fuel feed hole 32 is respectively positioned on again
In the same sagittal plane of position spring base 3.Using such structure design, lubricating oil can be made finally to be drawn by annular groove 14
It is directed at one or more the second fuel feed hole 32, and is entered by the second fuel feed hole 32 in the inner chamber of return spring holder 3, finally from the
Two oily passages 24 flow out carries out effectively lubricating to contact R faces 5 with valve stem to quiet rocking arm, meanwhile, the profit in annular groove 14
Lubricating oil can also be sufficiently lubricated the relative sliding contact face between return spring holder 3 and quiet rocking arm 2.But it should be noted
, increase the quantity of the second fuel feed hole 32, can make the manufacturing cost of return spring holder 3 increases, while can also reduce reset bullet
The mechanical strength of spring abutment 3.
