The electric wire connector 4 is electrically connected with the electric heating filter screen 3, and the electric wire connector 4 is positioned outside the first shell 1 and the second shell 2.
When the engine oil collector provided by the embodiment of the disclosure is used in an automobile engine, since the oil collector comprises the first housing 1, the second housing 2 and the electric heating filter 3, the oil collector can be connected with an oil pump through the first housing 1, and the oil collector can be placed in an oil pan through the second housing 2. Therefore, under the action of the engine oil pump, the engine oil collector can input the engine oil in the oil pan to all parts in the engine from the oil outlet 11 after the engine oil passes through the oil inlet 21 and is filtered by the electric heating filter screen 3.
And because, this engine oil collector still includes wire connector 4, and wire connector 4 is connected with electric heat filter screen 3 electricity. Therefore, when the electric heating filter screen 3 is blocked due to the existence of ice beads, the electric heating filter screen 3 can be connected with an external power supply through the wire connector 4, so that the electric heating filter screen 3 can rapidly generate heat to melt ice residues, and the electric heating filter screen 3 is unblocked. The engine oil can be smoothly filtered through the electric heating filter screen 3, the pressure of the engine oil entering each part of the engine is ensured to be recovered to be normal, and the normal oil supply of the engine is realized.
That is to say, the engine oil collector that this disclosed embodiment provided can be under extremely cold condition, and automatic heating electric heat filter screen 3 to remove the jam of puck, avoid electric heat filter screen to take place the jam and influence the normal fuel feeding of engine.
Illustratively, the oil outlet 11 of the first housing 1 is used for communicating with an oil inlet of an oil pump, and the oil inlet 21 of the second housing 2 is immersed in an oil pan.
With continued reference to fig. 1, the electric heat screen 3 includes an electric resistance wire mesh 31 and a wire frame 32. The outer periphery of the resistance wire net 31 is connected to a net frame 32, and the net frame 32 is located between the first casing 1 and the second casing 2 and is connected to the first casing 1 and the second casing 2, respectively.
In the above-described embodiment, the net frame 32 is used to connect the first and second housings 1 and 2 to sandwich the electric heating filter net between the first and second housings 1 and 2. On the other hand, the net frame 32 is also used for edge covering the outer periphery of the electric resistance wire net 31 to prevent impurities in the electric resistance wire net 31 from falling into the oil passage from the outer periphery thereof, thereby avoiding the problem of abrasion of the parts needing lubrication in the engine due to the impurities entering the parts.
Illustratively, the resistive wire mesh 31 has a plurality of resistive wires that are interleaved with one another to form the resistive wire mesh. This enables simple fabrication and formation of the resistive mesh 31.

With continued reference to fig. 1, the mesh surface formed by the electric resistance wire mesh 31 is a concave curved surface, and the middle part of the electric resistance wire mesh 31 protrudes toward the oil inlet 21 relative to the oil outlet 11.
In the above implementation, the mesh surface of the electric resistance wire mesh 31 is set to be a concave curved surface and is convex toward the oil inlet 21, so that the impact strength of the electric resistance wire mesh 31 can be increased.
When the engine oil enters the engine oil collector from the oil inlet 21 and passes through the resistance wire mesh 31, the resistance wire mesh 31 protrudes towards the oil inlet 21, so that when the engine oil pressure is high, the pressure of the high-pressure oil can be resisted by the convex curved surface, the deformation and the damage of the resistance wire mesh 31 can be avoided, and the service life of the resistance wire mesh 31 can be prolonged. In addition, the filtering area of the resistance wire mesh 31 can be increased, and the overflowing speed of the engine oil can be effectively increased.

Of course, the resistance wire mesh 31 may also be a structural member made of other materials, such as chromium-aluminum alloy, as long as the requirements of high resistance and high strength can be met, which is not limited by the present disclosure. Only when the oil pump draws the engine oil, the requirements of certain high resistance and high strength can be met, so that the resistance wire mesh 31 cannot be damaged due to overlarge impact force of the engine oil, and meanwhile, the resistance wire mesh can quickly generate heat after being electrified.
Illustratively, the wire tabs 4 are two. The two wire tabs 4 are respectively located on opposite sides of the outer periphery of the resistance wire net 31, and the two wire tabs 4 are respectively electrically connected to the resistance wire net 31.
In the above implementation mode, two wire connectors 4 are arranged, so that the two wire connectors 4 can be simultaneously connected with an external power supply, the electric heating filter screen 3 can rapidly generate heat through a closed circuit to melt ice residues, the pressure of engine oil is recovered to be normal, and normal oil supply of an engine is realized.
Illustratively, the wire connector 4 may be a cable connector.
Illustratively, the external power supply is a vehicle power supply of the vehicle, and whether the vehicle power supply is communicated with the electric heating filter screen 3 or not is controlled by an ECU (Electronic Control Unit).
When the electric heating filter screen 3 is used, when the electric heating filter screen 3 is not blocked and is unblocked, the pressure of engine oil entering the engine is normal, and the engine oil can not be supplied to an ECU (electronic control Unit), namely, a power supply of the whole vehicle is not communicated with the electric heating filter screen 3, the electric heating filter screen 3 is not started, the engine oil pump can normally absorb oil from the oil outlet 11, and the engine oil collector can normally supply oil to all parts of the engine.
When the electric heating filter screen 3 is seriously blocked, the pressure of the engine oil entering the engine is suddenly reduced, so that a signal is input to the ECU, the electric heating filter screen 3 in the engine oil collector is connected with the power supply of the whole vehicle to form a closed circuit, the electric heating filter screen 3 quickly generates heat to melt ice slag, the pressure of the engine oil entering the engine is recovered to be normal, and the engine oil collector can normally supply oil to all parts of the engine.

The net mount 32 and the first outer flange 13 are located in the installation ring groove 231, and the first outer flange 13 abuts against the net mount 32.
In the above implementation manner, the first casing 1 is provided as the first pipe 12 and the first outer flange 13, and the second casing 2 is provided as the second pipe 22 and the second outer flange 23, so as to conveniently form the installation ring groove 231, and then the net rack 32 is press-fitted in the installation ring groove 231 through the first outer flange 13, thereby improving the installation efficiency and the installation firmness of the electric heating filter screen 3 in the first casing 1 and the second casing 2.

That is, the net frame 32 can be press-fitted into the mounting ring groove 231 through a hot press process, and the first and second cases 1 and 2 are directly press-fitted together.
Fig. 2 is a schematic structural view of an engine oil collector provided in an embodiment of the present disclosure, and with reference to fig. 2, an opening of the oil inlet 21 is an oval shape.
The opening of the oil inlet 21 is formed in an elliptical shape, so that the contact area between the oil inlet 21 and the oil pan can be reduced. When the engine oil in the oil pan shakes, the engine oil enters the oil through the oil inlet 21 of the second pipe body 22, and the oil inlet 21 is not easy to separate from the liquid level. And even if the oil inlet 21 is separated from the liquid surface, a gap generated between the oil inlet 21 and the liquid surface is relatively small. Therefore, air is not easy to enter the oil pump from the oil inlet 21 or less air enters the oil pump, so that the pressurization treatment of the oil pump is not affected basically, and the normal lubrication effect of an engine lubrication system can be ensured by the oil collector.
Optionally, the angle formed between the axis of the oil inlet 21 and the axis of the oil outlet 11 is greater than 90 degrees (see the included angle between the straight line a and the straight line b in fig. 1).
In the above implementation, the angle formed between the axis of the oil inlet 21 and the axis of the oil outlet 11 is set to be greater than 90 degrees, so that the plane in which the oil inlet 21 is located can be in an inclined state, that is, the plane in which the oil inlet 21 is located can be inclined toward the oil pan, so that the oil can be quickly sucked up from the oil inlet 21.
With continued reference to fig. 2, the first tube 12 is of a bent tube configuration and the second tube 22 is also of a bent tube configuration.
In the above implementation manner, the first pipe 12 and the second pipe 22 are set to the above structure, that is, the included angle between the central axis of the first end of the first pipe 12 and the central axis of the second end of the first pipe 12 is greater than 90 degrees, and the included angle between the central axis of the first end of the second pipe 22 and the central axis of the second end of the second pipe 22 is greater than 90 degrees. This facilitates the securing of the second end of the first tube 12 to the second tube 22 and the mounting of the first end of the first tube 12 to the oil pump. While enabling the first end of the second tube 22 to be located within the oil pan.
Alternatively, the inner wall of the second end of the second pipe 22 has a plurality of pipe ribs 221 along its circumferential direction, and the length direction of the pipe ribs 221 is the same as the axial direction of the second end of the second pipe 22.
In the above implementation, by disposing a plurality of ribs 221 on the inner wall of the second pipe body 22, it is possible to increase the structural strength of the second pipe body 22.
With continued reference to fig. 1 and 2, the first housing 1 further includes an ear plate 14, the ear plate 14 is connected to an outer wall of the first end of the first tube 12, and the ear plate 14 is located in a plane perpendicular to a central axis in the first end of the first tube 12, and the ear plate 14 is used for connecting to an oil pump.
In the above implementation manner, the ear plate 14 is configured as above, so that on one hand, the oil pump can be positioned, and meanwhile, the connection with the oil pump through the ear plate 14 is facilitated.
Illustratively, the ear plate 14 is provided with a mounting hole, and the insert 7 is arranged in the mounting hole. When actually connected, the lug plate 14 and the mounting hole on the oil pump are fixed together by the insert 7.
Alternatively, in order to reduce the weight of the engine oil collector, the first housing 1 and the second housing 2 may be both plastic structural members.
Referring again to fig. 1, the engine oil collector further includes a sealing ring 6, and the sealing ring 6 is sleeved on the outer peripheral wall of the end of the first housing 1 near the oil outlet 11.
In the above implementation, the seal ring 6 is used to seal the joint between the first housing 1 and the oil pump, and prevent oil from leaking between the first housing 1 and the oil pump.
Illustratively, the outer wall of the first end of the first pipe body 12 is in a thread structure, and the sealing ring 6 is sleeved in the thread pitch of the thread structure. The first end of the first pipe 12 is connected with the oil pump by screw thread.
This facilitates the mounting of the sealing ring 6 on the one hand and the assembly of the first tube body 12 with the oil pump on the other hand.
The working mode of the engine oil collector provided by the embodiment of the disclosure is briefly described as follows:
when the electric heating filter screen is used, when the electric heating filter screen 3 is not blocked and is unblocked, the pressure of engine oil entering the engine is normal, signals can not be input to an Electronic Control Unit (ECU), namely, a power supply of the whole vehicle is disconnected with the wire connector 4, the electric heating filter screen 3 can not generate heat, the engine oil pump can normally absorb oil from the oil outlet 11, and the engine oil collector can normally supply oil to all parts of the engine.
When the electric heating filter screen 3 is seriously blocked, the pressure of the engine oil entering the engine is suddenly reduced, so that the whole vehicle control unit inputs a signal to the ECU, the ECU controls the whole vehicle power supply to be communicated with the wire connector 4, the electric heating filter screen 3 and the whole vehicle power supply are communicated to form a closed circuit, the electric heating filter screen 3 starts to generate heat, ice residues are melted, the pressure of the engine oil entering the engine is recovered to be normal, and the engine oil collector can normally supply oil to all parts of the engine.
On the other hand, the embodiment of the present disclosure further provides an engine oil heating method, where the engine oil collector is used to implement the engine oil heating method, and the method may be executed by a computer device, for example, an onboard controller such as a vehicle control unit or an ECU. As shown in fig. 3, the engine oil heating method includes:
s301: and obtaining engine oil indicating information of the engine, wherein the engine oil indicating information is used for indicating whether ice balls exist in the engine oil or not.
The oil indicator includes at least one of an oil pressure within the engine and an ambient temperature of the engine.
S302: and controlling the engine oil collector to heat the engine oil in the engine according to the engine oil indication information.
Optionally, S302 is implemented by:
and if the oil pressure in the engine is lower than the pressure threshold value or the ambient temperature of the engine is lower than the temperature threshold value, controlling an engine oil collector to heat the oil in the engine.
Wherein, the engine oil collector is controlled to heat the engine oil in the engine by connecting the electric heating filter screen with an external power supply.
The external power supply can be a whole vehicle power supply.
For example, in S302, whether the electro-thermal filter is heated or not may be controlled according to the following manner.
In embodiments of the present disclosure, the presence or absence of ice droplets in the oil is indirectly reflected by the oil pressure and/or ambient temperature. When the engine oil pressure is lower than the pressure threshold value, the engine oil passing through the electric heating filter screen is reduced, and the electric heating filter screen can be blocked by ice drops condensed in the engine oil. When the ambient temperature is below the ambient threshold, water in the engine oil may condense into ice beads. The oil pressure and/or ambient temperature may thus reflect the presence or absence of ice droplets in the oil.
The oil pressure can be detected by a pressure sensor, and the ambient temperature can also be detected by a temperature sensor. In this embodiment, both the oil pressure and the ambient temperature are obtained by the vehicle control unit.
In one embodiment, the oil indicator is oil pressure. When the oil pressure in the engine is not lower than the pressure threshold value, the oil indicating information indicates that ice beads do not exist in the oil, and the controller does not control the electric heating filter screen 3 to heat. When the oil pressure in the engine suddenly drops, at the moment, the oil pressure is lower than a pressure threshold value, the oil indicating information indicates that ice drops exist in the oil, and the controller controls the electric heating filter screen 3 to heat.
In another embodiment, the oil indicator is an ambient temperature of the engine. When the actual environment temperature is not lower than the temperature threshold, the engine oil indication information indicates that ice beads do not exist in the engine oil, and at the moment, the controller does not control the electric heating filter screen 3 to heat. When the actual environment temperature is lower than the temperature threshold value, the engine oil indication information indicates that ice balls exist in the engine oil, and the controller controls the electric heating filter screen 3 to heat.
In another embodiment, the oil indicator includes oil pressure and ambient temperature. When the oil pressure in the engine is not lower than the pressure threshold and the actual environment temperature is not lower than the temperature threshold, the oil indication information indicates that ice drops do not exist in the oil, and at the moment, the controller does not control the electric heating filter screen 3 to heat. When the oil pressure in the engine is lower than a pressure threshold value or the actual ambient temperature is lower than a temperature threshold value, the controller controls the electric heating filter screen 3 to heat.
Of course, the electric heating filter screen 3 is controlled to heat, and the electric heating filter screen can also be directly opened manually to automatically heat.
When the engine temperature control device is in actual use, the pressure threshold and the temperature threshold can be reasonably set according to the corresponding pressure and the environment temperature when the engine normally works.
The above oil heating method has the same beneficial effects as the engine oil collector described above, and the details are not repeated herein.
In another aspect, an embodiment of the present disclosure further provides an engine lubrication system, where the engine lubrication system includes an engine cylinder, an oil pan, an oil pump, and an engine oil collector above the oil pan, and the oil pan is disposed at the bottom of the engine cylinder.
The oil pump and the oil collector are both arranged in the engine cylinder body. The oil inlet 21 is immersed in the oil pan, and the oil outlet 11 of the oil collector is communicated with the oil inlet of the oil pump.
The above engine lubrication system has the same advantageous effects as the engine oil collector, and will not be described in detail herein.
The present disclosure is to be considered as limited only by the terms of the appended claims and all changes that come within the meaning and range of equivalency of the claims are therefore intended to be embraced therein.
