Description

Engine oil observation device for locomotive

The new model relates to a maintenance auxiliary equipment for a locomotive, in particular to an oil observation device for a locomotive.

Referring to Figure 1, an observation device 1 for observing the oil state is suitable for connecting to an oil tank of a locomotive (not shown in the figure), and includes a pipe 11 connected to the oil tank, and a detachable ground An oil dipstick 12 inserted in the pipe 11. The oil in the oil tank will be conducted into the pipe 11, and the oil dipstick 12 is extended in the pipe 11 for a predetermined length, and a plurality of scales are formed, and the oil dipstick 12 is attached to the pipe 11 The height of the liquid level presented by the oil in the medium can be used to determine the amount of oil in accordance with these scales.

However, since the oil dipstick 12 has a certain length and is drawn from the duct 11 in an upward direction when in use, the configuration of the peripheral equipment of the locomotive must cooperate with the observation device 1 to make a certain space. Therefore, the design of the vehicle body equipped with the observation device 1 is relatively limited. For example, if the relatively rear configuration of the locomotive needs to be changed, the installation space of the rear wheels may be affected, or the track of the front and rear wheels may be increased, making it difficult to use The overall locomotive presents a relatively compact configuration. Moreover, the method of dipstick 12 is an "indirect observation", which may affect the accuracy of observation due to vehicle body tilt, sloshing of the liquid level, incomplete dip, etc. There is still a need for further improvement.

[Problems to be solved by this model]

Therefore, the object of the present invention is to provide an oil observation device for a locomotive that does not require additional operating space and can be directly observed.

[Technical means to solve the problem]

Therefore, as the creation of item 1 in the scope of the patent application, the engine oil observation device of the new type locomotive includes a crankcase with an oil chamber.

[The effect that this model can achieve]

In the creation of item 1 in the scope of patent application, the oil contained in the oil chamber will be led out through the oil guide until it can be observed from the window. There is no need to perform the disassembly action like the traditional oil dipstick, and it can be conveniently viewed directly from the outside, and because the operation space required for the disassembly action does not need to be considered, other equipment positions can be freely configured.

In the creation of item 2 of the scope of patent application, these indicator scales can be used to more clearly determine whether the oil level displayed in the window meets the standard of normal operation.

In the creation of items 3 to 5 of the scope of patent application, the joint surface of the crankcase can also be used to install accessories such as the radiator. After the radiator is installed, the radiator and the window are not mutually exclusive. The position configuration of the interference will still not affect the function of observing the oil volume from the window.

In the creation of item 6 of the scope of patent application, since the transmission mechanism and the crankcase have a certain weight, considering that the guiding structure and the window need to be arranged on the same side of the crankcase, it is beneficial to shorten the oil guide. Therefore, the transmission mechanism is arranged on the opposite side, thereby balancing the weight arrangement of the entire locomotive.

In the creation of item 7 in the scope of patent application, the guiding structure is formed by directly extending from the crankcase, which not only simplifies the manufacturing process, but also does not require additional processing or installation work in the subsequent.

In the creation of item 8 in the scope of patent application, the oil injection hole of the cylinder head can be supplemented with oil, which can improve the efficiency of maintenance and has a certain degree of convenience.

2 and 3, an embodiment of the engine oil observation device of the new locomotive defines a driving direction D of the locomotive 9 and a transverse direction T transversely perpendicular to the driving direction D. The locomotive 9 includes a crankcase 91, a radiator 92 disposed on the crankcase 91, a transmission mechanism 93 (shown in the figure) disposed on the crankcase 91 and located on the opposite side of the radiator 92 along the transverse direction T In FIG. 5), and a cylinder head 94 disposed on the opposite front of the crankcase 91. The crankcase 91 includes an oil chamber 910, and a joint surface 911 facing the outside along the transverse direction T. The radiator 92 is disposed on the joint surface 911 as shown in FIG. 3, and the installation is completed. The joint surface 911 is shielded as shown in FIG. 2. This embodiment includes a guide structure 3 suitable for connecting to the crankcase 91 and a window 4 installed on the guide structure 3.

3 to 5, the guiding structure 3 is preferably integrally formed with the crankcase 91, and defines an oil channel 310 connected to the oil chamber 910 and extending outward, and an oil channel 310 connected to the oil guide The road 310 is located relatively outside and has an installation space 320 with an opening 329. The guiding structure 3 includes a plurality of indicating scales 33 formed on the outer surface of the installation space 320. The cylinder head 94 has an oil injection hole 940 formed on the cylinder head 941 for replenishing engine oil. The oil injection hole 940 can also be formed in other positions of the cylinder, and is not limited to the cylinder head 941 described above. Wherein, the oil injection hole 940 communicates with the oil chamber 910 of the crankcase 91 and the oil guide channel 310 of the guide structure 3 in sequence. That is to say, the oil injection hole 940 exposed from the top can be directly replenished when replenishing the oil, and the replenishing oil can be smoothly diverted through the communication relationship between the oil injection hole 940, the oil chamber 910, and the oil guide channel 310 To the oil guide channel 310, and there is no need to disassemble other parts, which is beneficial to improve the maintenance efficiency.

5 and in conjunction with FIG. 4, it should be particularly noted that since the crankcase 91 is not directly arranged on the outermost side of the locomotive 9 in the transverse direction T, it is necessary to install other equipment outside the crankcase 91 Therefore, the design of the guiding structure 3 must be used to ensure that the oil in the oil chamber 910 can be led out. The design of the guide structure 3 and the crankcase 91 integrally formed is beneficial to simplify the manufacturing process and can avoid subsequent processing or installation operations, but the actual implementation is not limited to this.

3 and 4 again, the window 4 is disposed in the installation space 320 and closes the opening 329, and is made of transparent materials such as plastic, glass, etc., and can be used to observe the flow from the oil chamber 910 to the The oil level of the oil guide channel 310 cooperates with the indicating scales 33 located beside the window 4 to confirm the amount of oil, and it is even possible to visually determine whether the clarity meets the standard for normal operation of the locomotive 9. Wherein, the window 4 is spaced from the radiator 92 as shown in FIG. 2 and is located at the opposite rear of the radiator 92. Therefore, even if other equipment is installed on the joint surface 911 of the crankcase 91, the The window 4 will also be exposed to the outside and will not affect the basic function of observing the oil condition.

5, the window 4 and the crankcase 91 are located on the side opposite to the transmission mechanism 93 along the transverse direction T. Since the transmission mechanism 93 and the crankcase 91 both have a certain weight, considering the guiding The structure 3 and the window 4 need to be arranged on the same side as the crankcase 91 to shorten the oil guide path. Therefore, the transmission mechanism 93 is arranged on the opposite side to balance the overall weight configuration of the locomotive 9.

In summary, the oil observation device of the new locomotive uses the guide structure 3 to guide the oil in the oil chamber 910 out through the oil guide channel 310, so that the state of the oil can be directly observed from the window 4, Effectively improve the convenience and substantial efficiency of maintenance, and because there is no need to reserve any operating space, the freedom of space utilization for configuring other equipment can be increased to meet other design requirements, so it can indeed achieve the purpose of costing new models.

However, the above are only examples of the present model, and should not be used to limit the scope of implementation of the present model, all simple equivalent changes and modifications made in accordance with the patent scope of the present model application and the contents of the patent specification still belong to This new patent covers the scope.
