The oil pump chain plate is an important part in the engine. It is a flat part on the chain or chain belt connecting the oil pump and the crankshaft.
The main function of the oil pump chain plate is to transfer the rotating power of the crankshaft to the oil pump, so as to drive the oil pump to work. When the engine is running, the rotation of the crankshaft will be transmitted to the oil pump through the oil pump chain plate, so that the oil pump will start to work. The oil pump is responsible for sucking the oil from the oil pan, and sending the oil pressure to all lubricating points of the engine through the oil passage to ensure the lubrication and cooling of all parts of the engine.
The design and manufacture of oil pump chain plate need to consider the transmission characteristics of chain or chain belt and the working requirements of oil pump. It needs to have enough strength and rigidity to bear the rotating force of the crankshaft and the working pressure of the oil pump. At the same time, the oil pump chain plate also needs to have good wear resistance and corrosion resistance to ensure that it will not be worn or corroded during long-term use.
In a word, the oil pump chain plate plays the role of transmitting the rotating power of crankshaft to the oil pump in the engine, and is an important part to ensure the normal lubrication and cooling of the engine. Its design and manufacture need to meet the requirements of strength, rigidity, wear resistance and corrosion resistance to ensure the reliability and performance of the engine.
