Structural Features of Dongfeng Cummins B and C Series Engines

Both the Dongfeng Cummins B and C series engines feature reasonable strength, compact and simple structure, a reduced variety and quantity of components, light weight, high efficiency, and energy - saving. Next, the author will introduce in detail the structural features of the Cummins B and C series engines one by one.

1. A design that combines several parts is adopted, which reduces the number of parts, increases the universality of parts, and eliminates many complex parts. For example, the water pump housing, oil pump housing, water pump inlet pipe, and oil cooler housing are combined within the cylinder block; the intake manifold, thermostat housing, small - circulation cooling water pipe, and fuel filter housing are combined within the cylinder head.

2. Every effort is made to minimize the number and variety of parts. For instance, the total number of gears in the gear chamber is 6 (including three gears for driving the oil pump and air compressor); plastic nozzles are used for piston cooling (one per cylinder for the B - series engine and two per cylinder for the C - series engine), and no further simplification is possible.

3. There are many aluminum castings and stamped parts, resulting in light weight. Examples of aluminum castings include the gear chamber, flywheel housing, intake pipe cover, valve chamber cover, and oil cooler; examples of stamped parts include the oil pan, tappet chamber cover, and gear chamber cover.

4. Light - sized and simple accessory assemblies with high universality are widely used. These include a rotary oil pump, a water pump with a stamped impeller and combined bearings, a plate - fin oil cooler, a spin - on combined oil filter, a spin - on fuel filter, a multi - hole tubular oil suction device. Due to the significant differences in working intensity and performance levels between supercharged and non - supercharged engines, parts such as the fuel pump, piston, upper compression ring, and connecting rod assembly are not universal. However, the rest are universal (excluding the newly added parts in the supercharged type).

5. The key parts have sufficient dimensional margins and strength reserves.

6. To meet the needs of various applications and matching requirements, a large number of optional parts are designed. For example, the oil filler can be located at the top, front, or side; there are three types of oil pans: front - sump, middle - sump, and rear - sump; the oil dipstick can be located at the front, middle, or rear positions; an air compressor, hydraulic pump, and air conditioner can be optionally installed; a low - temperature starting device can be optionally installed; and several types of high - pressure oil pumps can be optionally installed.
