The oil-scavenge pump 40 has a proximately cylindrical appearance, and also has a head end 410 and a rod end 430. In more detail, the oil-scavenge pump 40 mainly includes four components, as a cap member 41, a resilient member 42, a piston member 43 and a filter member 44.

[0046] As shown in FIG. 3, to be specific, the jacket ring 47 is pressed into the mounting slot 13, the pad 46 and the seal ring 45 are placed into the mounting slot 13 sequentially. Thereafter, the cap member 41 and the piston member 43 are first pre-assembled individually and then combined with the resilient member 42 and the filter member 44. On next, the assembled cap member 41 and the resilient member 42 and the piston member 43 and the filter member 44 are pressed into the mounting slot 13, and then, the rod portion 435 of the piston member 43 squeezes and passes through the jacket ring 47, the pad 46 and the seal ring 45, such that to construct and assemble into the oil-scavenge pump 40. Also, the piston member 43 squeezes and passes through the seal ring 45, such that to stretch the seal ring 43 wider to tightly contact and fit an inner wall of the mounting slot 13, and to achieve fluid tightness.

The step S101 is to provide the main body 10 of the hydraulic device 1, wherein the main body 10 is disposed with the mounting slot 13, the oil entrance 101 and the oil exit 102. Furthermore, the mounting slot 13 are formed with a plurality of countersinks (right side in FIG. 3) with different diameters, wherein those countersinks are formed with larger diameters on an external side of the main body 10 and smaller diameters on an internal side of the main body 10, and the diameters of the countersinks are formed narrower and narrower from the external side to the internal side sequentially,

[0051] On next, the step 102 is to press and mount the jacket ring 47 into the mounting slot 13 of the main body 10, wherein the jacket ring 47 is concentrically disposed into the mounting slot 13 on the innermost countersink with the smallest diameter, in a manner of interference fit. Such that, an outer wall of the jacket ring 47 tightly contacts and fits the inner wall of the mounting slot 13, and hence the jacket ring 47 is fastened within the mounting slot 13.

Furthermore, as the piston member 43 moves, slides related to the pump valve 414 of the cap member 41, the resilient member 42 within the valve cavity 4143 can push back the piston head 431 and return the piston member 43 to the normal state. Thereafter to mount the tubular filter member 44 on the rod portion 435, with the second-anchor structure 441 facing the first-anchor structure 4144 of the pump valve 414, then to move the filter member 44 along the rod portion 435 to contain the piston seat 434 and the piston head 431 and then to engage the second-anchor structure 441 with the first-anchor structure 4144. thereby, the filter member 44 holds and interconnects the cap member41, the resilient member 42 and the piston member 43 altogether.

[0056] The step S107 is to press the assembled the cap member 41 and the resilient member 42 and the piston member 43 and the filter member 44 into the mounting slot 13 of the main body 10, which includes a process of having the rod portion 435 of the piston member 43 to straightly enter the mounting slot 13 first and pass through the seal ring 45, the pad 46 and the jacket ring 47, then to be mounted and fastened within the mounting slot 13, in manner of interference fit. Along with that, a portion of the filter member 44 surrounding the rod portion 435, which is also mounted and fastened within the mounting slot 13 in manner of interference fit, such that to tightly contact and fit the inner wall thereof. Moreover, one of the countersinks of the mounting slot 13 holds and positions an outer surface of the pump valve 414, such that to secure the cap member 41 therein and complete the entire assembling process of the oil-scavenge pump 40.

[0057] Additionally in one embodiment, during the step S107 of pressing the assembled the cap member41 and the resilient member 42 and the piston member 43 and the filter member 44 into the mounting slot 13, the pad 46 and the seal ring 45 may be configured to have an original inner diameter smaller than a diameter of the rod portion 435 of the piston member 43. Such that, as the rod portion 435 squeezes through the pad 46 and the seal ring 45, it stretches the pad 46 and the seal ring 45 wider to tightly contact and fit the inner wall of the mounting slot 13 and hence fasten the pad 46 and the seal ring 45 in manner of interference fit, in order to enhance a stability of the oil-scavenge pump 40 and a fluid tightness between the oil-scavenge pump 40 the main body 10.

[0058] Furthermore, in one embodiment, after the oil-scavenge pump 40 is mounted into the mounting slot 13, the next is to apply a riveting process to fasten the head portion 410 of the oil-scavenge pump 40 (the cap head 411 of the cap member 41), such that to further secure the oil-scavenge pump 40 within the main body 10.

[0059] As described in the abovementioned embodiment, among the four components 41, 42, 43, 44 of the oil-scavenge pump 40, the cap member 41 and the piston member 43 can be pre-assembled, whereas the resilient member 42 and the filter member 44 are both single components formed as one piece therefore needless to pre-assemble. However, the present disclosure is not limited thereto, the resilient member 42 and the filter member 44 may be configured to include multiple parts that require to pre-assemble, in other embodiment.

[0060] Also, in this embodiment, the cap member 41, the piston member 43 of the oil-scavenge pump 40 are pre-assembled in advance (step S104 and S105), and then assembled with other components 42, 44 (step S106) before mounting into the main body 10 of the hydraulic device 1. However, the present disclosure is not limited thereto, in other embodiments, the steps S104 ~ S106 of pre-assembling the components 41, 42, 43, 44 are swappable, furthermore the steps S104 ~ S106 may also be proceeded before the step S102 of mounting the jacket ring 47 into the main body 10.

[0061] In summary of the abovementioned embodiments, in contrary to the conventional technology, the oil-scavenge pump 40, the hydraulic device 1, and the method for assembling the oil-scavenge pump 40 according to the present disclosure, which have the following technical advantages.

[0062] For the conventional technology, the components of the hydraulic device are fastened and sealed off by welding, however the quality of welding is unstable and hence to also cause unstable fluid tightness of the hydraulic device, moreover, the connection by welding is vulnerable to high temperature and vibration, which can cause safety problems in an operation of the hydraulic device.

[0063] In the other hand, the hydraulic device according to the present disclosure, which has a relatively simplified structure and assembling manner, thus a riveting process is applicable to achieve a fine quality of fluid tightness, and therefore no need of welding, which also can secure the components from damage or even breaking apart by rapid vibration or high temperature generated during the operation of the hydraulic device. Also, the method according to the present disclosure, which separates the oil-scavenge pump into four components in advance, such that to reduce the processes for mounting the oil-scavenge pump into the main body, and thereby to facilitate an efficiency of the assembling process.

[0064] The above disclosure is only the preferred embodiment of the present disclosure, and not used for limiting the scope of the present disclosure. All equivalent variations and modifications on the basis of shapes, structures, features and spirits described in claims of the present disclosure should be included in the claims of the present disclosure.
