[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to an oil pan for a horizontal multi-cylinder internal combustion engine in which a balancer shaft is provided in the interior space of the oil pan.

In a 2-stroke multi-cylinder engine or a 4-stroke multi-cylinder engine with an odd number of cylinders, a configuration that only provides a balance weight on the crankshaft will reduce the primary and secondary inertia forces of the reciprocating parts in each cylinder. It is difficult to properly balance the secondary inertia couple, and in order to achieve a good balance between the two, it is necessary to install a balancer shaft separately from the crankshaft.

In this case, in a 2-stroke engine, a balance weight can be attached to the camshaft for opening and closing the exhaust valve, which rotates at the same speed as the crankshaft, to create a balancer shaft, but in a 4-stroke engine, the camshaft's rotational speed is 1/1/1 of the crankshaft. 2, the camshaft cannot be used as a balancer shaft and a separate balancer shaft is required.

In a horizontal multi-cylinder internal combustion engine in which the crankshaft is arranged as a horizontal axis, it is advantageous to incorporate such a balancer shaft into the internal space of the oil pan in order to limit the increase in size of the engine. However, in this case, the general mounting method of bearing the balancer shaft on multiple shaft supports fixed to the bottom surface of the crankcase increases the assembly process because multiple shaft supports are assembled. This is an extremely troublesome work that involves highly accurate centering work by adjusting shims, etc., resulting in extremely low work efficiency and an increase in costs.

The present invention was devised in view of the conventional situation, and provides an oil pan in which a plurality of shaft supports for bearing a balancer shaft are integrally cast on the side wall of the oil pan, thereby increasing the efficiency of the assembly work of the balancer shaft. In addition to significantly improving the oil pan, it also increases the rigidity of the oil pan and reduces resonance noise with the crankcase.

A shaft support 11 is installed on the front end wall of the oil pan 1.
A shaft insertion hole 1a is formed in a portion opposite to the shaft insertion hole 11a. The balancer shaft body 3A inserted through the shaft insertion hole 1a is
Shaft insertion hole 11a of shaft support base 11
After the balancer shaft 3 is attached to the shaft body 3A, a balance weight 3B designed to have an appropriate weight is attached to the middle part and the rear end part of the shaft body 3A to complete the balancer shaft 3. A balancer shaft gear 4 is fitted into the front end of the balancer shaft 3 and fastened with a nut 15.

After installing balancer shaft 3 in this way,
The outer edge flange portion 1c of the oil pan 1, whose shaft insertion hole 1a is hermetically sealed with a blind lid 1b, is connected to the lower surface of the crankcase 6 by tightening bolts, and the balancer shaft gear 4 is meshed with the crank gear 5. Note that the balancer shaft gear 4 has the same number of teeth as the crank gear 5.

In this configuration, since the shaft support 11 is integrally molded with the oil pan 1, there is no need to assemble the shaft support, and the shaft insertion holes 11a of all the shaft support 11 can be processed at the same time. As a result, misalignment can be suppressed to an extremely small level without performing troublesome centering work, and the balancer shaft 3 can be assembled with high precision.

In addition, the shaft support 11 functions as a reinforcing rib and increases the rigidity of the entire oil pan 1, so high-frequency vibrations due to resonance of the oil pan 1 with the crankcase 4 are well suppressed, reducing vibration noise throughout the entire speed range of the engine. Can be reduced. Furthermore, as the rigidity increases, even if the oil pan 1 is made of aluminum casting as in this embodiment, sufficient strength can be ensured and the weight of the oil pan 1 can be reduced. Separately from the shaft support base 11, reinforcing ribs 12 and the like may be provided separately as shown by chain lines in the figure.
