A lubrication system for an internal combustion engine of a work vehicle includes an engine oil sump and a pump unit fluidly connected to the engine oil sump to receive engine oil therefrom. The pump unit, in turn, includes a first oil pump comprising a variable displacement pump, a second oil pump, a drive line mechanically coupled to the first oil pump and the second oil pump that drives each of the pumps, and a manifold that directs engine oil from the engine oil sump to the first and second oil pumps. A first oil circuit is fluidly coupled to the first oil pump to direct a first flow of engine oil to piston spray jets in the engine and a second oil circuit is fluidly coupled to the second oil pump to direct a second flow of engine oil to one or more oiled engine components in the engine.

The present disclosure relates to an engine system (1) for a vehicle (100), comprising, an internal combustion engine (10), a lubrication system (20) arranged to lubricate the internal combustion engine (10) and a first lubrication pump (21) arranged to supply lubricant to the lubrication system (20). The first lubrication pump (21) is configured to be powered by an auxiliary power source (40), wherein the lubrication system (20) is further arranged to supply lubricant to at least one auxiliary component (30, 31) of the engine system (1) which requires to be lubricated when in use, and wherein the lubrication system (20) comprises at least one valve (23, 25) for selectively shutting off lubricant supply to the at least one auxiliary component (30, 31). The present disclosure also relates to a vehicle (100), to a method for controlling lubricant supply to an auxiliary component (30, 31) and to a control unit (70).

An electrically-actuated camshaft phaser used in an internal combustion engine including a camshaft sprocket, configured to receive rotational input from a crankshaft, that includes a sprocket ring gear having a plurality of radially-inwardly facing gear teeth and a radially extending sprocket side; a camshaft plate that includes a camshaft ring gear having a plurality of radially-inwardly facing gear teeth and a radially extending camshaft side; a plurality of planetary gears having radially-outwardly facing gear teeth, each gear with a first radial gear face and a second radial gear face, wherein the planetary gears engage the sprocket ring gear, the camshaft ring gear, or both the sprocket ring gear and the camshaft ring gear; and one or more fluid escapement channels formed in at least one of the camshaft sprocket, the camshaft plate, the first radial gear face, or the second radial gear face.

An engine oil passage structure for an engine contributing to downsizing the engine and achieving protection of an oil passage against external forces is provided. Provided is an oil passage structure for an engine installed in a small vehicle, the engine including an engine body formed of a crankcase and a cylinder block and a cylinder head stacked inclined vehicle frontward on the crankcase, the crankcase, the cylinder block, and the cylinder head being integrally fastened. The oil passage structure includes, near a bent part formed by a case front wall of the crankcase and a cylinder front wall of the cylinder block forming a valley part by an obtuse angle, a right-left direction oil passage extending in a right-left direction along the valley part.

A blow-by gas device of a supercharger-equipped engine includes a blow-by gas passage that introduces blow-by gas into an intake passage via a positive crankcase ventilation (PCV) valve. A supercharger has a supercharger rotor provided integrally with a rotation shaft rotatably supported on a bearing part. A space communicating with the bearing part is connected to a communication passage. The communication passage guides the blow-by gas into the space.

A bearing supporting an end of a layshaft in an internal combustion engine is lubricated by injection of oil through a flange that mounts the layshaft on the engine. A pressure responsive flow control valve controls delivery of oil through the flange to the bearing. A backflow prevention adapter prevents backflow of oil to the engine's oil pump.

An apparatus includes an exhaust gas purification device configured to be coupled to a cylinder head of an engine via a bracket, the exhaust gas purification device defined by a housing including a body portion, a first end portion, and a second end portion, the body portion interposed between the first end portion and the second end portion, the first end portion configured to be coupled to the bracket.

An engine apparatus includes an engine, an exhaust gas purification device, an outlet side bracket, and an inlet side bracket. The exhaust gas purification device is mounted above a cylinder head to extend along an axis of an output shaft of the engine. The inlet side bracket is configured to couple an exhaust gas inlet side of the exhaust gas purification device to the cylinder head. The inlet side bracket includes a first bracket, a second bracket, and a third bracket. The first bracket is configured to be secured to a surface of the cylinder head intersecting the axis of the output shaft and includes a wide width. The second bracket includes a proximal end portion and a distal end portion. The third bracket is configured to be coupled to an end surface of the exhaust gas purification device and the distal end portion of the second bracket.

A valve opening/closing timing control device that sets a relative rotation phase between a driving-side rotating body and a driven-side rotating body using a driving force of an electric actuator is compactly configured. The device is provided with: a first bearing disposed between an inner periphery of the driven-side rotating body and an eccentric member; a second bearing disposed between the eccentric member and an input gear on a side of the first bearing away from a camshaft in a direction along a rotational axis; and a front plate fixed to the driving-side rotating body on a side of the second bearing away from the camshaft. An Oldham coupling is disposed on the side away from the camshaft of both the first bearing and the second bearing in the direction along the rotational axis.

A bearing supporting an end of a layshaft in an internal combustion engine is lubricated by injection of oil through a flange that mounts the layshaft on the engine. A pressure responsive flow control valve controls delivery of oil through the flange to the bearing. A backflow prevention adapter prevents backflow of oil to the engine's oil pump.
