  • Patent number: 10550740
    Abstract: A multifunctional engine brake, comprising an engine valve motion transformation mechanism, a slow seating mechanism (250), and a timing oil control mechanism. By axially moving a roller (235) on a roller shaft (231), the connections between the roller (235) and different cams (230, 2302) are switched, so as to implement the transformation between different engine valve motions. A roller axial driving mechanism (100) is disposed in the roller shaft (231), thereby achieving a simple and compact structure, a symmetrical and reliable force, and easy manufacturing and assembling. The timing oil control mechanism provides timing oil supply or discharge for the engine brake, thereby eliminating the randomness of the opening or closing of a conventional engine brake, avoiding slipping and impact of the roller during roller translation, and improving the reliability and durability of the brake and engine.

  • Patent number: 9376941
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for resetting a valve lift for use in an engine brake. A brake piston (160), and a hydraulic fluid passage (214) are arranged within a rocker arm (210) or a valve bridge (400) of an engine. A resetting valve arranged between the rocker arm (210) and the valve bridge (400) is driven by a change in the distance between the rocker arm (210) and the valve bridge (400). When the valve lift of an engine exhaust valve (300) reaches a maximum, a reset fluid passage (219) is opened, the hydraulic pressure within the hydraulic fluid passage is released, the brake piston (160) is reversed by one interval, the motion transmission between a cam (230) and the engine exhaust valve (300) is partially disengaged, and the valve lift of the engine exhaust valve (300) is reduced.

  • Publication number: 20140182536
    Abstract: A reset rocker arm braking method and device are provided. A braking piston hole and an oil drain piston hole which are communicated with a braking oil supply passage are arranged inside a rocker arm, and an oil drain passage is arranged between the braking piston hole and the oil drain piston hole. When the rocker arm is driven by a braking cam lobe of a cam, an exhaust valve is opened to realize braking by a braking piston inside the braking piston hole. When the rocker arm is driven by an exhaust cam lobe of the cam, the rocker arm drives an oil drain piston in the oil drain piston hole to open the oil drain passage to discharge oil, and the lift profile of the exhaust valve is reset and reduced to a conventional exhaust valve lift profile without an engine braking.

  • Patent number: 8764421
    Abstract: Scroll type fluid machinery, in which two stationary scrolls (2A, 2B) are fixed onto a housing (1), and form volume changing mechanisms (50A, 50B) with matching orbiting scrolls (3A, 3B). Three orbiting units (40) are located between the two volume changing mechanisms. Each orbiting unit comprises a rotating member (10) and a thrust-cancelling shaft (20). Assembly sets of the thrust-canceling shaft consist of turning elements and a connector, which in turn connects with orbiting scrolls through threads. There exists only circumferential constraint but no axial constraint between the connector and the turning element. Rotating turning element will rotate the connector, and thus move the two orbiting scrolls closer or farther through the threads on the connector. The rotating member of this invention further provides a larger space to the supporting bearings (14A, 14B) of the thrust-canceling shaft, and also eases component manufacturing, machinery's assembly and adjustment, and bearings' cooling.
