What is a flywheel housing? What is the function of the flywheel housing

(Summary description) 

The flywheel housing is installed between the engine and the gearbox, externally" connected to the crankcase, starter, and oil pan, with a built-in flywheel assemblyπ, which serves as a connection to the body, protection and carrier.

  The main function of the flywheel housing is to realize the effective connection be←tween the engine and the transmission. Through its changes, the same type of en"gine can be equipped with different types of cars to meet market demand.

  The size of the connecting surface of the same series of flywh←eel housings is basically the same as that of the connectin•g surface of the engine, but it is different from the connecting surf∞ace of the clutch, but has the same functional holes.

  Generally, the flywheel shell is shaped like a basin, and its structure is characterize&d by large dimensions, with a maximum diameter of up to 60‌0mm and a height of nearly 300mm. Most flywheel shells are made of g±ray cast iron casting blanks. The material structure is characterized by uneven wa∑ll thickness. Generally, the wall thickness is 6-8mm, the thinnest part is only↔ 5mm, and the maximum wall thickness is up to 40mm. The area of ​​the two ‍surfaces connected to the engine and the clutch is large, and ↕it is easy to deform during die-casting, and the amount of deformation is not™ easy to control, so the connecting holes on the two surfaces must be machined. In orde r to ensure that the flywheel housing has good stability and tightness ₽during operation, detailed technical requirements are set on its important surfacesπ and holes.

The flywheel housing includes a housing, a support plate, a♦nd bolts. There are screw holes on both sides of the housing, and bolt holes are opened on the supp ort plate. The bolts pass through the bolt holes on₩ the support plate and are screwed into the housing. In♦ the screw hole, connect the support plate to the shell.

   The number and position of the threaded holes on÷ the support plate are determined according to the matching installation requiremΩents of the engine. The utility model aims to provide a flywheel shell which can βadapt to the matching installation requirements by replacing ↑the supporting plate. The flywheel shell can be use d universally, reduce molds and tooling, increase the batch size<, reduce the types of accessories, save production mana$gement, financial management, and storage management costs, and reduce costs.

   At least one heat dissipation window is provided on the flywheel housing, and a wate≠rproof cover is provided on the heat dissipation window. The function of♣ the flywheel shell is to have the functions of heat dissipation and metal powder removal, simple ™structure, easy to install, accommodate the clutch assembly, bear the weight of the tra♦nsmission, and play the role of power transmission fulcrum.

  The function of the flywheel housing is to bear weight, position the engine and transmission, and‌ place the lifting parts. Although it does not have much wear, its da•mage and misalignment also have a great impact on the engine.

  As the flywheel shell bears weight and external force, c≈racks and deformation will inevitably occur. After the flywheel shell is deformed, i←ts parallelism and the center of the bearing hole lose their oεriginal accuracy, that is, the bearing hole of the f↕lywheel shell cannot be concentric with the center of the crankshaft and th<e center of the transmission, causing the engine and the transmission center to deviate. This will λaffect the transmission of power. The wear of the driven part will al×so increase, and abnormal transmission noise will occur. The misalignment o≈f the two planes of the flywheel housing will also ca↕use unnecessary wear to the mechanical parts of the driven• part, such as the wear of the clutch plate, the driving axle o☆f the transmission, and the bearing.

   In order to make the centerline of the engine cra★nkshaft coincide with the centerline of the transmission drive shaft, the flywheel housing is eβquipped with a plane and a center positioning device. For example, the plane of th₹e cylinder block and the plane of the flywheel housing, the driving wheel cover o₽f the transmission and the bearing hole of the flywheel housing are guaranteed to be paralle×l and concentric. Therefore, in addition to paying attention to the co"ncentricity of the crankshaft and the flywheel, it is necessary to strictly adjust and re¥pair several datum surfaces or holes of the flywheel housing during the war"ranty.

   Because although the flywheel housing is a singl'e body, its bearing hole center and plane are the same as the cylinder block. Therefore, the basic₽ part of the flywheel housing cannot be ignored in the warranty.

   flywheel housing is generally suitable for flywheel compδonents of electronically controlled diesel engines for vehicles.

  Generally, the flywheel shell is shaped like a basin, a§nd its structure is characterized by large dimensions, with♠ a maximum diameter of up to 600mm and a height of nearly 300m'm. Most flywheel shells are made of gray cast iron casting blanks. The material struct¶ure is characterized by uneven wall thickness. Generally, the wall thi•ckness is 6-8mm, the thinnest part is only 5mm, and the maximum wall αthickness is up to 40mm.

   The neck height of the neck flange is low, which can improve the rigid©ity and load-bearing capacity of the flange. Compared with the butt-welded flange, the welding work‌load is large, the electrode consumption is high, and it cannot withstand hi✘gh temperature and high pressure, repeated bending and temperatur∑e fluctuations, but the on-site device is more convenientα, and the process of welding seam scratching can be omitted, which is more popular.< Butt welding flange with neck: neck flange welding is usual•ly called "high hub" flange. Its purpose is to transfer the pressure of the ↕pipeline, thereby reducing the high stress concentration in the "flange base. Neck flange welding is a good design for butt weldin'g those flanges that are provided due to their own constructive va​lue. However, the price is relatively high because of  the complicated production process of the product. Threaded (threa¶ded) flange: The threaded flange is connected by threaded fasteners. But the center of the> product has a thread size corresponding to the pipe. Its ₩main advantage is that it can be assembled without weld↔ing. Sliding flange: Sliding flange has a lower hub, because the pipe enters the singl≥e flange before welding. This is to provide sufficienσt strength inside and outside the welding to avoid leakage. Sliding flanαges are matched with boring pipes with slightly larger outer diameters. T→hey are better than neck flange welding due to lower initial cost. flange Many users, bu✘t the cost of the latter device will not be low, due to the increase in the number of weld neck fl>anges, lap flange: in practice, the lap flange is the s→ame complete sliding flange, unless it is in the hole and A radius between flange races. It is nece&ssary for the radius to have the flange to contain the lap stub to comple≥te. Usually, the lap flange and the lap stub end mating together will assemble γthe system. The socket welding flange is a similar sliding flange, un"less it has a hole and a counter hole size. The matching of the  counter hole and the pipe allows the pipe to be inserted into a sliding flange similar to the flanεge. The diameter of the smaller hole is matched with the same pipe with the same ID. The restrict£ion is a built-in hole that stays at the bottom as a ​shoulder sleeve designed for pipes. This eliminates any flow restrictδions when using socket welding flanges.
  1. In order to compact the sealing surface of the flat welding flange, only a sma©ll pressure is required. As the required pressure drops, the size of the bolts and the  number required are correspondingly reduced. After all, a plan is planned. A ∏flat welding flange product with a relatively small volume and a relatively light we​ight.    2. The production of flat welded flanges can save data and red‌uce costs. When the raw material of the pipe is spec®ial and the price is high, the cost of welding the flange of the same raw material wi¶ll be high, and the use of this flange can effectively save the cost of materials. Conduc∞ive to construction, when connecting, the bolt holes of the flange are inconvenienπt to align or to avoid replacing the flange bolt holes of the equipme​nt, etc., the use of this flat welded flange is very suitable.         3. The flat​ welding flange can save space and reduce weight in the process of use. The most important tφhing is to ensure that the head part will not leak. It has a very outstanding sealiδng function. The reason why the size of the compact fl≥ange is reduced is because The diameter of the seal is reduced, which will re≈duce the cross-section of the sealing surface. Also, the fla×nge gasket has now been replaced by a sealing ring to e¥nsure an outstanding matching of the flat welded flange seal facin★g the sealing surface.    flat welding flange    But it also has some disadvantages: ‌    Disadvantages of flat welding flange:   The m§ain design disadvantage of flat welded flanges is that it cannot ensure no leakage. Tπhis is the lack of its planning: the connection is dynamic, and for example, thermal expans☆ion and fluctuating cyclic loads will cause movement between the flange surfaces, which will affe↔ct the function of the flange, which will damage the integrity  of the flange and eventually lead to leakage. It is impossibleα for any product to be without shortcomings, just try to control the lack of products t♠o the minimum, so the company tries to perfect the functionβs of the products when producing flat welded flanges to make them play the great₩est role.
      Flange work characteristics:   Flange work characteristics:    1. A self-control bu≈tterfly valve that can be remotely controlled, which alsoβ has the characteristics of a flanged butterfly valve, and can be equipped with a wide range of b'utterfly valves;   2. The power supply is the driving energy of the butterfly v♦alve, with a wide range of power sources, wide application range, saφving human resources, and having work efficiency;   3. Convenient operation and easy to meet πvarious control requirements. It can be realized by selecting diffeλrent actuators, signal feedback, flow adjustment, explosion-pr∞oof and other functions;   4. Ultra-miniaturization can be realized, mechanical self-locking± can be realized, and different sealing rings can be changed to meet different working conditio✘ns.   The working principle of flange:   Using t≤he actuator to input a standard signal of 0-10 mA, the motor group drives the gear, worm, and ​torque to drive the disc to rotate. When the valve is in the fully open position, the thickγness of the butterfly plate is the resistance of the medium flo​wing through the valve body, so the pressure drop generated by the valγve is small, so it has better flow control characteristics.   Butterfly valve has two sealing t↓ypes: elastic seal and metal seal. For elastic sealing valves, the sealing ring can be embeddδed on the valve body or attached to the periphery of the bu↑tterfly plate. The valve with metal seal generally has a longer life than the ©valve with elastic seal, but it is difficult to achieve a complete seal. Metal seals can adapφt to higher operating temperatures, while elastic seals have the de↔fect of temperature limitation. If flanged butterfly valves are required to be used as flow c£ontrol, the main thing is to correctly select the size and type of th★e valve.
 The valve is an accessory of the pipeline, used to controγl the flow, pressure, and direction of the fluid. The fluid to be controlled can be liquid, gas, g€as-liquid mixture or solid-liquid mixture.   one.≥ Basic parameters of valve   The basic parameters of the valve i→nclude working pressure (PN), working temperature (T) and nominal diameter (DN). For various v✔alves equipped on pipelines, nominal pressure and nominal diσameter are commonly used as basic parameters. Nominal pressure refe←rs to the maximum working pressure that a valve of a certain material can withsta☆nd at a specified temperature. The nominal diameter refers to☆ the nominal inner diameter of the connecting end of the valve body and the pipe←line. Valves, pipelines and pipeline accessories of the same nominal diameter ca♦n be connected to each other, which is interchangeable.   two. Valve classification    ∑1. According to function and purpose    According to∞ the different functions of the valve, it can be divided into the f↑ollowing five types:   ①Shutoff valve    shut-off valve is also called cl✔osed-circuit valve, its function is to connect or cut off the medium in the pipeline. Block valv¥es include gate valves, globe valves, plug valves, ball$ valves, butterfly valves, and diaphragm valves.   ②Check va&lve    Check valve is also called one-way valve or check valve, its function is to prevent the b$ack flow of the medium in the pipeline. For example, the suction valve of the water pump belo ngs to the non-return valve category.   ③Safety valve    The role of safety valves is to pr<event the pressure of the medium in the pipeline or device from exceeding the speci fied value to protect the safe operation of subsequent equipment.   ④Regulating va<lve   The function of the regulating valve is to regulate the pressure, flow and other parameters 'of the medium. The regulating valve has different classificati×on methods. According to the purpose and function, the re♥gulating valve can be divided into:    (1) Two-position valve. The two-position valve is∑ mainly used to close or connect the medium.    (2) Regulating val•ve. The regulating valve is mainly used for regulating the coefficient. When selecting the valve,₩ the flow characteristics of the regulating valve need to be de×termined; the regulating valve can be divided into the foll↕owing forms according to the structure: single-seat re&gulating valve; double-seat regulating valve; sleeve regulating valve; angle regulating Valve; thΩree-way regulating valve; diaphragm valve; butterfly valve; ball valve; eccentric rota>ry valve.    (3) Shut-off valve. Usually refers to a valve with a →leakage rate of less than one part in 100,000.   ⑤Divert valve    The diverter valve includes v★arious distribution valves and flow valves, etc., who₩se function is to distribute, separate or mix the medium in the pipeline.   2. Accord∏ing to the valve drive mode   According to the valve drive mode,∑ it can be divided into the following three types:   ①Automatic valve    refers to valves th>at do not require external drive, but rely on the energy of the medium to act‍uate the valve, such as safety valves, pressure reducing valves, trap"s, check valves, automatic control valves, etc.   ②Power driven valve   The power-d♣riven valve can be driven by various power sources. Including electric valves≥ driven by electricity, pneumatic valves driven by compressed air, hydraulic valves driven by hydr"aulic pressure such as oil, and combinations of vario∞us driving methods, such as pneumatic-electric valve₽s.   ③Manual valve   Manual valves use handwheels , handles, levers, sprockets and other components to manipulate the valve action by manpower. Wh↔en the valve closing torque is large, a gear or turbo reducer cσan be set between the handwheel and the valve stem. If necessary,♣ universal joints and drive shafts can also be used for long-distance operation.   3↑. Press the connection method    can be divided into the following six ty pes according to the connection method:   ①Threaded connection valve: The valve body has an in₩ternal thread or an external thread to connect with the pipe thread;   ②Flange connection vδalve: the valve body has a flange to connect with the pipeline flange;   ③Welding connectio₹n valve: The valve body has a welding groove and is welded to the pipeline;    ④Clamp-connected valve: the valve body has a clamp to connect with the pipe clamp;   ⑤ Car★d sleeve connection valve: It is connected with the pipeline by >a card sleeve;   ⑥Wafer connection valve: a connection form in ♦which the valve and the two pipes are directly clamped together •with bolts.   4. According to the valve body materia‌l   ①Metal material valve   The valve body and other parts are made of meta₽l materials, such as cast iron valves, carbon steel valves, alloy steel valves, copper alloy↓ valves, aluminum alloy valves, lead alloy valves, titanium alloy va≤lves, Monel alloy valves, etc.   ②Non-metallic valve   The valve body and other ↓parts are m
The caliper can also be called a brake cylinder. There are a lot of pistons ins∑ide the caliper. The function of the caliper is to push the brake pads to clamp the bra∑ke disc, so that the car can slow down. After the brake pads clamp the br>ake disc, the kinetic energy can be converted into heat en↕ergy. The brake system is a vital system in a car. The brake  system is related to the driving stability and driving safety factor of the car. Th>e key components of the brake system include vacuum booster pump, brake master cylinder, br≤ake cylinder, brake pads, and brake discs. Brake pads an★d brake discs are basically wearing parts that need to be replaced on a regular basis. As the ₹driving distance of the car increases, the brake pads and brake ≤discs will basically continue to wear. After the brake ✘pads and brake discs are worn to a certain degree, they need to be rep'laced. If they are not replaced, the braking distance ₩will be affected. After the driver steps on the brake pedal, th<e master cylinder can push the brake cylinder through the brake fl®uid. At this time, the brake cylinder can push the brake pad's to clamp the brake disc. The vacuum booster pump provides power assist≠ance, and the vacuum booster pump allows the driver to easily ste€p on the brake pedal. The brake fluid in the brake system needs to be replac÷ed regularly. If it is not replaced for a long time, it will affect the braking force and b♠raking distance. Brake fluid is a kind of fluid that is ≠easier to absorb water. When the water content of the brake fluid reaches 3%, it needs to be ©replaced. After replacing the brake fluid, the air in the brake system pipeline needs to be e£mptied, otherwise the braking force and braking dis§tance may also be affected.
   We have seen many products using gears in our lives, but do& you know what principle they use gears? According to its working principle,→    gear has the following functions: First, gears can transmit mechanical power, su§ch as automobile gear shifting devices, industrial gearboxes, etc.; second, gears ca≠n change the direction of movement, such as mechanicaλl watches, shaking head devices in electric fans, etc.; ₹third, gears can reduce speed and Improve torque, such♦ as motor reducer, various speed change mechanisms, etc.   Gear transmission m∏echanism    Here are two interesting applications of gears in auto mobiles and aviation, let's take a look at the role of gears in them.    There is a mech₹anical structure in a car called a differential, which is an extremely ∞important part. When a car turns, the speeds of the inner and outer₹ wheels are different. If there is no differential, the speeds of the inner and o&uter wheels are the same. The wheels slip and roll over. Moreover,  the speed of the car is very fast, and it is absolutely impossible to have no differ£ential at high speeds. The gear here is on the differentλial, which can not only transmit the power of the engine, but also reduce the speed t£hrough the different speed ratios of the gear device, and at the same time can achieve a very co'ol "differential" function.    three-dimensional model of differential   In aviation, helicoΩpters using coaxial reversal technology are favored by many countries because of  their excellent performance. This helicopter has two propellers on the same shaft. When the♦ plane is flying, the rotation direction of the two propellers must be opposite to ensu¶re the power balance of the plane.   Helicopter using coaxial reversal technology    From the thr®ee-dimensional model of the coaxial reversal structure, it can be seen that after two tra©nsformations of the gear, the mechanical transmission directionε is smoothly changed, and two different rotation directions are realized on the sam♠e shaft.
