An engine assembly includes an oil pan including an oil pan body defining a cavity. The oil pan body includes a dividing wall separating the cavity into a first compartment and a second compartment. The engine assembly further includes a drip tray coupled to the oil pan body. The drip tray is disposed over the second compartment and can direct oil to the first compartment where the oil is warmed up initially in order to minimize the time it takes to heat the oil when the internal combustion engine is warming up. The engine assembly further includes an oil scraper coupled to the oil pan body. The oil scraper is disposed over the drip tray and can scrape oil from a crankshaft.

In an oil pan inner tank valve structure, a disc-shaped float valve is arranged below a valve port that provides fluid communication between the inside and outside of a bottom wall of an inner tank, and a lower cover is arranged below the float valve. In addition, a center recess is depressed at a lower surface center of the float valve, and a lateral movement restricting pin is upright from the lower cover and is constantly engaged with the center recess by recess/protrusion engagement. The lower cover restricts a vertically movable range of the float valve. In addition, the lateral movement restricting pin restricts lateral movement of the float valve so that a top portion of an upper surface bulged portion vertically constantly faces an area inside a valve seat.

The volume of lubricating oil stored in the sump of an internal combustion engine for a vehicle is in significant excess of the volume of oil circulating through the engine at any one time. The circulating oil, drawn from the sump, may be rapidly heated during its passage through the engine, but the excess volume remaining in the sump dilutes and cools the circulating oil as it returns to the sump. By separating the oil volume into a portion which is circulated through the engine and a second portion which has only limited opportunity to mix with and cool the circulating oil the circulating oil may attain its operating temperature more rapidly. Once the stored volume of oil in the engine has also reached its operating temperature the circulating oil and stored oil may be recombined.

An oil pan 1 includes: an oil pan body 2 having a reservoir 21 for storing oil circulated in an engine E and returned to the reservoir 21; and a separator 3 having a vertically extending sidewall unit 4 partitioning the reservoir 21 into a first reservoir 21a for storing high-temperature oil and a second reservoir 21b for storing low-temperature oil. The first reservoir 21a has a suction-member-placement region 22 in which a member for sucking oil is provided. The separator 3 has an inclined portion 61 extending, to the suction-member-placement region 22, from a portion below a downstream end of a return pipe Rt for allowing oil to return to the first reservoir 21a.

An oil pan for an internal combustion engine has a casing having a first oil chamber and a second oil chamber that are separated from one another. A valve connects the first and second chambers with one another in an open position of the valve. The valve is switched temperature dependent, wherein the valve is closed at a temperature below a switching temperature. An outlet opening communicates with the first oil chamber. The first oil chamber has a first oil volume and the second oil chamber has a second oil volume, wherein the first oil volume is smaller than the second oil volume. The outlet opening is positioned in an exterior wall of the first oil chamber and provides a connecting opening for connecting an oil cooler to be connected to an exterior wall of the casing.

An oil catching system for an internal-combustion engine, particularly for an opposed cylinder engine, has an oil catching housing arranged below a crankcase. An oil suction space is provided in the oil catching housing from which the lubricating oil is transported by way of a main oil pump equipped with an oil suction pipe to consuming devices. At least one oil collecting space adjoins the oil suction space, in which oil collecting space the lubricating oil coming from the consuming devices is returned by way of an oil pipe. The oil suction space is separated from the oil collecting space by at least one oil separating wall, in which at least one passage opening is arranged which can be controlled by way of a flap, by way of which passage opening the lubricating oil can flow from the oil collecting space into the oil suction space.

An engine assembly includes an oil pan including an oil pan body defining a cavity. The oil pan body includes a dividing wall separating the cavity into a first compartment and a second compartment. The dividing wall defines a compartment opening extending therethrough, and the compartment opening fluidly interconnects the first compartment and the second compartment. The engine assembly also includes an oil pump at least partially disposed inside the first compartment of the oil pan. The oil pump includes a pump pickup conduit in fluid communication with the first compartment. The engine assembly additionally includes a temperature sensor disposed inside the pump pickup conduit of the oil pump. The temperature sensor can measure the temperature of oil flowing into the oil pump. In other words, the temperature sensor can sense the temperature of the oil pumped in the engine.
摘要:
An engine assembly includes an oil pan having an oil pan body. The oil pan body includes an inner pan surface defining a cavity configured to collect oil and an outer pan surface opposite the inner pan surface. Further, the oil pan includes a dividing wall disposed within the cavity and coupled to the oil pan body. The dividing wall divides the cavity into a first compartment and a second compartment. The oil pan defines an opening extending through the dividing wall. A valve is disposed in the opening and can move between an open position and a closed position. When the valve is in the open position, the first compartment is in fluid communication with the second compartment. When the valve is in the closed position, the valve blocks fluid flow between the first compartment and the second compartment via the opening.

An oil pan structure (1) includes a lower structure (2) fixed to a lower portion of an engine block, a main oil pan (3) provided under an engine block with the lower structure being between the main oil pan and the engine block, a sub oil pan (5) that is provided in the main oil pan (3) and forms a first chamber (6) and a second chamber (7) inside the main oil pan (3). The sub oil pan (5) is separated into an upper body (5a) and a lower body (5b). The upper body (5a) is formed together with the lower structure (2) by injection molding.
摘要:
An engine assembly can heat or cool oil and includes an oil pan. The oil pan includes an oil pan body, and the oil pan body includes an inner pan surface and an outer pan surface opposite the inner pan surface. The inner pan surface defines a cavity configured to collect oil. The oil pan further includes a pan passageway extending through the oil pan body. The pan passageway is disposed between the inner pan surface and the outer pan surface. In addition, the pan passageway is configured to carry a heat transfer fluid in order to transfer heat between the oil disposed in the cavity of the oil pan and the heat transfer fluid.
