[Detailed Description of the Invention]
[0001]
[Field of the Invention]
The present invention relates to an engine oil pump assembly, and more particularly
relates to improving an engine oil pump assembly where there is provided a
transmission chamber at one side of an engine crank case, an auxiliary chamber formed
adjacent to an outer side of the transmission chamber, an oil pump attached to an inner
wall of the transmission chamber, a driven gear coupled to a pump shaft of the oil pump
and of a larger diameter than the oil pump and a drive gear fixed to a crankshaft for
driving the driven gear located at the transmission chamber, a fitting hole enabling
detachment of the oil pump from the side of the auxiliary chamber provided at a

bulkhead between the transmission chamber and the auxiliary chamber, and a cover
for covering this fitting hole.
[0002]
[Related Art]
Related engine oil pump assemblies such as that disclosed in, for example, Japanese
Utility Model Publication Laid-open No. 61-63492 are well known.
[0003]
[Problems to be Solved by the Invention]
The fitting of an oil pump and associated drive system to a narrow transmission
chamber that be easily performed from the auxiliary chamber-side with such oil pump
assemblies by forming a fitting hole.
[0004]
However, with the related assemblies, the fitting hole inevitably has to be made of a
larger diameter than the driven gear in order to fit the oil pump and driven gear entirely
from the auxiliary chamber-side. Consideration then has to be given to compensating
for lowering of the strength of a bulkhead between the transmission chamber and the
auxiliary chamber when the diameter of the fitting hole is made large.
[0005]
In order to resolve the aforementioned problems, it is the object of the present invention
to provide an engine oil pump assembly that enables an oil pump and driven gear to be
located in a narrow transmission chamber even if a fixing hole provided in a bulkhead
between a transmission chamber and an auxiliary chamber within a crankcase is of a
smaller diameter than a driven gear coupled to a pump shaft.

According to the present invention there is provided an engine oil primp assembly comprising a transmission chamber formed at one side of a crankcase of an engine, an auxiliary chamber formed adjacent to an outer side of the transmission chamber, an oil pump attached to an inner wall of the transmission chamber, a driven gear coupled to a pump shaft of the oil pump and of a larger diameter than the oil pump and a derive gear fixed to a crankshaft for driving the driven gear located at the transmission chamber, a fitting hole enabling detachment of the oil pump from the side of the auxiliary chamber provided at a bulkhead between the transmission chamber and the auxiliary chamber, and a cover for closing the fitting hole,
characterized in that the pump shaft can be withdrawn in one direction with respect to a housing and pump rotor of the oil primp and with respect to the driven gear, the fitting hole is formed with a smaller diameter than the driven gear, and movement in the axial direction of the pump shaft is restricted by a cover for closing the fitting hole.
According to the first characteristic, first, after fitting the oil pump inserted .into the
transmission chamber via the fitting hole from the auxiliary chamber-side, the driven
gear is inserted, and put next to the oil pump. Next, by sequentially insertion-fitting the
pump shaft into the driven gear, pump'housing, and pump rotor in that order from the
auxiliary chamber-side via the fitting hole, the oil pump can be fitted to a narrow
transmission chamber even when the fitting hole is of a smaller diameter than the driven
gear, and the coupling of the driven gear to the pump shaft is straightforward. The
strength of the bulkhead can therefore be maintained by having a small-diameter fitting
hole, and the assembly can be made accordingly lighter.
[0008]
Further, a member dedicated to preventing the pump shaft from coming away is no
longer necessary because movement of the pump shaft, inserted through the driven gear,
pump housing and pump rotor, in the axial direction is restricted by the cover and the
structure can therefore be further simplified.
[0009]
In addition to the first aspect, in a second aspect of the present invention a bearing hole
rotatably supporting the pump shaft is provided in the cover.
[0010]
According to the second aspect, the cover bearing hole, together with the bearing hole
of the pump housing, supports the pump shaft on both sides of the driven gear in a
strong manner and thus contributes to improving the durability of the oil pump.
[0011]
In addition to the first an second aspects, in a third aspect of the present invention, the
cover is prevented from corning away from the fitting hole by an accessory fixed to the
auxiliary chamber.
[0012]
According to this third characteristic, a dedicated support member is not required for the

a rear wheel Wr is fitted to the rear part of a body frame 2 of the motorcycle 1 and is
capable of freely rocking up and down via a link 9, and a shock absorber 3 is interposed
between the power unit P and the body frame 2
[0016]
As shown in FIG. 2, the power unit P comprises a water-cooled four-cycle engine 4 and
a belt-type infinitely variable transmission 5 coupled to the left side-surface of the
engine 4 The rear wheel Wr is mounted at a position immediately after the engine 4 at a
side of the rear end of the infinitely variable transmission 5.
[0017]
In FIG. 2 to FIG 4, the crank case 6, cylinder block 7 coupled at the front surface of the
crank case 6 and arranged in a substantially horizontal manner, and a cylinder head 8
joined to the upper surface of the cylinder block 7 constitute the engine body of the
engine 4 A crankshaft 10 housed in and supported by the crank case 6 is connected to a
piston 11 moving up and down within a cylinder bore 7a of the cylinder block 7 via a
connecting rod 12.

[0018]
A well-known valve gear 74 including a camshaft 14 driven by a crankshaft 10 via a
timing transmission assembly 13 and an inlet valve 72 and exhaust valve 73 are
provided in the cylinder head 8 (refer to FIG. 4).
[0019]
The crankcase 6 comprises a front case half 6a continuing on integrally from the
cylinder block 7 and a rear case half 6b bolted onto the front case half 6a. Left and right
crank journals 10), and 10j2 of the crankshaft 10 are then sandwiched between the
crankcase halves 6a and 6b via ball bearings 15, and 152, respectively. A drive pulley
16 of the infinitely variable transmission 5 is attached to a journal outer shaft section
IOe extending outwards from the left crank journal 10j,, and a transmission case 17 is
bolted to the left end of the crank case 6.
[0020]
A transmission chamber 18 in which the timing transmission assembly 13 is located and
a cylindrical auxiliary chamber 19 adjacent to the outer side of the transmission
chamber 18 are formed at the right end of the crank case 6 on the opposite side to the
infinitely variable transmission 5. An oil seal 21 tightly fitting with the outer surface of
the crankshaft 10 is mounted at a bulkhead 20 between the transmission chamber 18 and
the auxiliary chamber 19.
[0021]
As shown in FIG. 3 and FIG, 5, a stator 22s of a generator 22 (accessory) is fixed using
a plurality of bolts 23 (refer to FIG. 5) to a plurality of bosses 19a projecting from the
inner wall of the auxiliary chamber 19, and a rotor 22r fixed to the right end of the
crankshaft 10 by bolts 24.
[0022]
An auxiliary chamber cover 25 and a fan cover 26 are sequentially connected to the
right end of the crank case 6, an engine cooling radiator 28 is fitted to the outer end of
the fan cover 26, and a cooling fan 27 for cooling the radiator 28 and the generator 22 is
positioned within the fan cover 26. The cooling fan 27 is fixed together with the rotor
22r to the crankshaft 10 by the bolts 24.
[0023]
As shown in FIG 3 and FIG 4, the lower part of the crankcase 6 forms an oil sump 29
and lubricating oil 30 accumulated in the oil sump 29 is sucked into an oil pump 32

through an oil filter 31 and sent under pressure to the crankshaft 10 and other parts of
the engine by the pump 32.
[0024]
A cylindrical filter chamber 33 opening at a front surface is formed at the lower part of
the front case half 6a and houses the cup-shaped oil filter 31 and a support spring 35
that presses a seal member 34 attached to the open end of the oil filter 31 against the
back wall of the chamber 33, with a cap 36 being screwed into the opening of the filter
chamber 33.
[0025]
The filter chamber 33 is partitioned by the oil filter 31 into a dirty chamber within the
oil filter 31 and a clean chamber outside the oil filter 31. An intake oilway 37 extending
from the oil sump 29 is connected to the dirty chamber and an intake port 32i of the oil
pump 32 communicates with the clean chamber via an outlet oilway 38.
[0026]
If the cap 36 is removed, the oil filter 31 can be taken out and cleaned and lubricating
oil 30 within the oil sump 29 can be discharged to the outside through the filter chamber
33, i.e. the cap 36 doubles as a drain bolt.
[0027]
In FIG. 7, the oil pump 32 is fitted to an inner wall of the transmission chamber 18 on
the opposite side to the bulkhead 20 The oil pump 32 is equipped with a pump housing
40, a pump rotor 41 housed within the pump housing 40 and a pump cover 42 connected
to the open face of the pump housing 40 The intake port 32i and an outlet port 32o are
provided at the pump cover 42. The pump housing 40 and the pump cover 42 are fixed
to the inner wall of the transmission chamber 18 using bolts 43 at the inner side of the
cover 42. A pump shaft 46 that penetrates a pump housing bearing hole 45 of the pump
housing 40 is fitted at and coupled to a communicating hole 44 of the pump rotor 41.
[0028]
A boss 48a of the driven gear 48 is then fitted to the pump shaft 46 and is coupled via a
joint pin 68, i.e., as shown in FIG. 8, the joint pin 68 is fitted at the pump shaft 46 in
such a manner as to transverse the pump shaft 46 and couple between the pump shaft 46
and the driven gear 48 by engaging with a key channel 69 at the end surface of the boss
48a of the driven gear 48
[0029]

The driven gear 48 is driven at low speed by the drive gear 47 fixed to the crankshaft 10 at the transmission chamber 18 and is formed with a much larger diameter than the oil pump 32. A drive sprocket 49 of the timing transmission assembly 13 is integrally formed at the drive gear 47. [0030]
A circular fitting hole 50 of substantially the same diameter as the oil pump 32, i.e. of a much smaller diameter than the driven gear 48, is provided at the portion of the bulkhead 20 facing the oil pump 32 in such a manner that the oil pump 32, and in particular, the bolts 43, can be detached from the auxiliary chamber 19 via the fitting hole 50. [0031]
A cover 52 is fitted to the fitting hole 50 via a seal member 53. A saccate bearing hole 51 for rotatably supporting an outer end of the pump shaft 46 and limiting movement of the pump shaft 46 in an axial direction is provided at the inner surface of the cover 52. As shown in FIG. 10, a segmental flange 54 projecting radially from an outer peripheral edge of the cover 52 and a strut 55 projecting from the outside surface of the cover 52 are formed integrally with the cover 52. The cover is therefore supported at a fixed position at the fitting hole 50 as a result of the flange 54 coming into contact with the bulkhead 20 at the auxiliary chamber 19-side and an end of the strut 55 pressing against the inner surface of the stator 22s via a resilient cap 56. [0032]
The outlet port 32o of the oil pump 32 communicates with the outer surface of a crank pin lOp via a feeding oilway 58 formed at the front case half 6a, an oil chamber 60 faced by the outer surface of the ball bearing 15, bearing the left crank journal 10j,, oil grooves 59 formed at the outer surface of the left crank journal 10j,, an oil sump 61 provided at a crank web l0w extending integrally from the left crank journal 10j1, a hollow part 62 of the crank pin l0p, and radially-facing oil spout 63 provided at the crank pin l0p. The outer surface of the crank pin l0p which the oil spout 63 opens out to supports a big end 12b of the connecting rod 12 via a needle bearing 64 (refer to FIG
4).
[0033]
The above oilway structure is now described in more detail
[0034]

An outer race of the ball bearing 15, supporting the left crank journal 10j, is fitted at a
infinitely variable transmission 5-side outer wall 65 of the crank case 6, an oil seal 66 is
mounted in a close-fitting manner at the journal outer shaft section lOe, and the annular
oil chamber 60 faced by the outside surface of the ball bearing 15, is defined by the
outer wall 65 and the oil seal 66
[0035]
The left crank journal 10j, has a larger diameter than the journal outer shaft section lOe
that extends further outwards than the left crank journal 10j, and an annular step 67 that
faces the oil chamber 60 is therefore formed between the left crank journal 1 Oj, and the
journal outer shaft section lOe. A pair of the oil grooves 59 that reach from the step 67
to the base of the left crank journal 10j, are provided at the outer surface of the left
crank journal 10j,, with the open ends of these oil grooves 59 going to the step 67 then
constituting inlets.
[0036]
The oil grooves 59 are formed when forging the crankshaft 10 and in order to make this
forming straightforward, as becomes clear from FIG. 6 and FIG 9, are arranged at two
locations shifted by a phase of approximately 90 degrees from the crank pin lOp about
the center of rotation of the left crank journal 10j,, and parallel to the axis of the left
crank journal 10j,.
[0037]
Further, a circular recess 70 is formed in the outside surface of the crank web lOw on
the same side as the left crank journal 10j, and an annular side plate 71 encompassing
the left crank journal 10j, is press-fitted into the recess 70. The annular, flat oil sump
61 is then defined between the side plate 71 and the crank web lOw. The outlets of the
oil grooves 59 then open at the inner side of the oil sump 61 in the radial direction and
have the hollow part 62 of the crank pin lOp opening at a central part.
[0038]
As shown in FIG. 6, a second feeding oilway 58' diverging from the feeding oilway 58
is provided in the front case half 6a, the cylinder block 7 and the cylinder head 8, for
supplying oil to the valve gear 74 via the second feeding oilway 58.
[0039]
The following is a description of the operation of this embodiment
[0040]

Regarding the fitting of the oil pump 32 and its drive system, first, in the front case half
6a prior to the rear case half 6b being connected, the oil pump 32 is inserted into the
transmission chamber 18, and the oil pump 32 is fitted to a prescribed location within
the transmission chamber 18 the auxiliary chamber 19 using the bolts 43 inserted into
the transmission chamber 18 through the fitting hole 50.
[0041]
Next, the large diameter driven gear 48 is inserted into the transmission chamber 18 of
the front case half 6a so as to be next to the oil pump 32. The pump shaft 46 equipped
with the joint pin 68 is then sequentially fitted into the boss 48a of the driven gear 48,
the bearing hole 45 of the pump housing 40 and the communicating hole 44 of the pump
rotor 41 in that order from the auxiliary chamber 19 through the fitting hole 50, and the
joint pin 68 is made to engage with the key groove 69 of the boss 48a.
[0042]
Finally, the cover 52 with the seal member 53 mounted at its outer periphery is fitted to
the fitting hole 50 of the bulkhead 20, the cover bearing hole 51 is fitted with the outer
end of the pump shaft 46 and the flange 54 comes into contact with the outer surface of
the bulkhead 20. The end of the strut 55 of the cover 52 is then covered with the
resilient cap 56.
[0043]
The coupling of the driven gear 48 to the pump shaft 46 is therefore straightforward
when the oil pump 32 is fitted to the inner wall of a narrow transmission chamber 18
even when the fitting hole 50 of the bulkhead 20 is of a smaller diameter than the driven
gear 48. Reduction in the strength of the bulkhead 20 is therefore substantially
avoided by having the fitting hole 50 of a smaller diameter than the driven gear 48 and
brings about the benefits of being light in weight.
[0044]
Further, a member such as a clip, etc., dedicated to preventing the pump shaft from
coming away is no longer necessary because movement of the pump shaft 46, inserted
through the driven gear 48, pump housing 40 and pump rotor 41, in the axial direction is
restricted by the saccate cover bearing hole 51 of the cover 52 fitted to the fitting hole
50, and the structure can therefore be further simplified.
[0045]
Further, the cover bearing hole 51 of the cover 52, together with the bearing hole 45 of

the pump housing 40, supports the pump shaft 46 on both sides of the driven gear 48 in a strong manner and thus contributes to improving the durability of the oil pump 32. [0046]
When the entire engine is then assembled, the inner end surface of the stator 22s of the generator 22 fixed to the inner wall of the auxiliary chamber 19 of the crank case 6 presses against the end of the strut 55 of the cover 52 via the resilient cap 56 so that the cover 52 is supported in a fixed position with the flange 54 coming into contact with the outside surface of the bulkhead 20. A dedicated support member such as a bolt, etc., is therefore no longer necessary and this support structure can therefore be simplified On the other hand, the drive gear 47 fixed to the crankshaft 10 meshes with the driven gear 48 so as to enable the oil pump 32 to be driven. [0047]
When the engine is running, the drive gear 47 rotating together with the crankshaft 10 drives the driven gear 48 at low speed and the rotor 41 of the oil pump 32 can therefore be driven at an appropriate speed. The oil pump 32 operating in this manner then takes in lubricating oil 30 of the oil sump 29 via the oil filter 31 and sends this oil under pressure to the feeding oilway 58, oil chamber 60, oil grooves 59, hollow part 62 of the crank pin l0p and the oil spout 63. The ball bearing 151 supporting the left crank journal lOj, can therefore be lubricated in the oil chamber 60 and the outer surface of the crank pin l0p, the needle bearing 64 and the inner surface of the big end 12b of the connecting rod 12 can be lubricated at the crank pin 1 Op. [0048]
Lubricating oil of the oil chamber 60 can therefore be communicated in a direct manner to the oil grooves 59 and oil can be supplied to the crank pin l0p in a smooth manner because the inlets of the oil grooves 59 open at the annular step 67 between the large-diameter left crank journal l0j, and the small diameter journal outer shaft section l0e. [0049]
The oil grooves 59 formed at the outer surface of the left crank journal 10j1, for communicating between the oil chamber 60 on the outside of the ball bearing 151 and the oil sump 61 on the outside of the crank web l0w can also be easily made In particular, when the oil grooves 59 are arranged parallel with the axis of the left crank journal 10j1, the oil grooves 59 can be formed at the same time as the forging of the crankshaft 10 A special groove-forming process is therefore not necessary, productivity

can be improved for the crankshaft 10 and cost reductions can be made.
[0050]
The oil grooves 59 on the outer surface of the left crank journal 10j1 are located at a
position phase-shifted by approximately 90 degrees from the crank pin l0p with respect
to the center of rotation of the left crank journal 10j,. When the piston 11 then reaches
top dead center and bottom dead center, the oil grooves 59 are then positioned in a plane
orthogonal to the axis of the cylinder bore 7a. The application of a large vertical load
from the piston 11 in the vicinity of the oil grooves 59 of the left crank journal 10j1 can
therefore be avoided and a lowering of the strength of the left crank journal 10j1 due to
the oil grooves 59 can be avoided.
[0051]
The present invention is by no means limited to the aforementioned embodiment, and
various design modifications are possible without deviating from the spirit of this
invention as defined in the patent claims. For example, an electric motor or other
accessory can be employed in place of the stator 22s of the generator 22 in order to
prevent the cover 52 coming away from the fitting hole 50.
[0052]
[Effects of the Invention]
According to the first aspect of the present invention, an engine oil pump assembly
comprises a transmission chamber formed at one side of a crankcase of an engine, an
auxiliary chamber formed adjacent to an outer side of the transmission chamber, an oil
pump attached to an inner wall of the transmission chamber, a driven gear coupled to a
pump shaft of the oil pump and of a larger diameter than the oil pump and a drive gear
fixed to a crankshaft for driving the driven gear located at the transmission, a fitting
hole enabling detachment of the oil pump from the side of the auxiliary chamber
provided at a bulkhead between the transmission chamber and the auxiliary chamber,
and a cover for closing the fitting hole Here, the pump shaft can be withdrawn in one
direction with respect to a housing and pump rotor of the oil pump and with respect to
the driven gear, the fitting hole is formed with a smaller diameter than the driven gear,
and movement in the axial direction of the pump shaft is restricted by a cover for
closing the fitting hole The oil pump can therefore be fitted to a narrow transmission
chamber even when the fitting hole is of a smaller diameter than the driven gear, and the
coupling of thi. driven gear to the pump shaft is straightforward. The strength of the

bulkhead can therefore be maintained by having a small-diameter fitting hole, and the
assembly can be made lighter accordingly. Further, a member dedicated to preventing
the pump shaft from coming away is no longer necessary because movement of the
pump shaft in the axial direction is restricted by the cover and the structure can
therefore be further simplified.
[0053]
According to the second aspect, because a bearing hole for rotatably supporting the
pump shaft is provided at the cover, the cover bearing hole, together with the bearing
hole of the pump housing, supports the pump shaft on both sides of the driven gear in a
strong manner and thus contributes to improving the durability of the oil pump.
[0054]
According to the third aspect of the present invention, a dedicated support member is
not required because the cover is prevented from coming away from the fitting hole by
an accessory fixed to the auxiliary chamber, and the structure can therefore be further
simplified.
