How to Install the Engine Thrust Plate?

 The thrust plate structure of the engine is in the form of a semi-circular sheet. The two sides are made of different materials, and one side is made of steel, which is harder. The other side is made of aluminum-based bearing alloy material, which is relatively soft and is in contact with the crankshaft. When the engine is running, it slides relative to the crankshaft. To reduce friction, there is an oil groove on one side of the bearing alloy.

Correctly installing the thrust plate will help the engine run better, but if the thrust plate is installed backward, the service life of the engine will be lost. LandTopMall is a mall with 8 years of spare parts sales experience. We have professional spare parts experts and highly acclaimed high-quality products. Welcome to buying engine spare parts such as thrust plates.

How to Install the Engine Thrust Plate?

1. There are two crankshaft thrust plates, which are only installed on the front and rear thrust surfaces of the main bearing seat of the cylinder block; 2. Before installation, add engine lubricating oil to the thrust plate with oil grooves; 3. Place the oil-free grooves in the direction of the road The cylinder block, with the oil groove surface facing the crankshaft, is installed into the thrust piece groove of the fourth main bearing seat; 4. Note that the oil groove surface of the thrust piece faces the crankshaft side.

 

What is a Thrust Plate?

What is a thrust plate? This is a good question. As a kind of engine sliding bearing, the thrust plate mainly plays the role of supporting the crankshaft axially in the engine, preventing the crankshaft from moving axially while ensuring the axial rotation of the crankshaft. In addition, pay attention to the maintenance of the engine. Engine maintenance is to replace the engine oil. Most family cars need to replace the engine oil every 8,000 to 1,000 kilometers. Engine oil is called the blood of the engine. Engine oil is very important to the engine. If there is no engine oil in the engine, the engine cannot run normally.

 

Engine oil not only plays a lubricating role in the engine but also plays the role of cleaning, sealing, buffering, rust prevention, and heat dissipation. When the engine is running, the engine oil will form an oil film on the surface of various components in the engine, which can prevent friction caused by direct contact of various components in the engine. If the various components in the engine are in direct contact to cause friction, it will affect the instantaneous generation of large doses of heat in the engine, which is fatal to the engine. Every performance of the engine oil will be degraded after long-term use, so the engine oil needs to be replaced regularly. If your thrust piece has worn out and needs to be replaced, please call: (+852) 63548665 to contact our accessories experts to get the most suitable solution. The 119515 thrust piece is currently one of the best-selling products in LandTopMall.

What Happens if the Thrust Plate is Installed Backward?

The steel surface cooperates with the crankshaft, and there is no obvious performance at the beginning. The power will be reduced but the feeling is not obvious. However, there is no oil groove on the steel surface. After a while, the steel surface and the crankshaft will be severely worn, the thrust plate will become thinner, and the thrust plate will come out of the thrust plate groove between the crankshaft and the cylinder block, and the crankshaft will increase the amount of play. , the engine will knock the cylinder, the piston, connecting rod, and cylinder liner are not necessarily the one that breaks first, whichever breaks the engine will be scrapped. In addition, the crankshaft will run with the pulley and the timing chain, and some engines will also run with the oil pump chain. Excessive axial movement may directly cause the belt, timing chain, or oil pump chain to fall off. Once these situations occur, no There is no intake and exhaust, no cooling, no lubrication, and the engine is directly scrapped.

Simple Introduction and Maintenance of Excavator Olecranon Shears

Image
 What are olecranon scissors? How to maintain the olecranon shears? Next, I will briefly introduce it to you. The olecranon shears are heavy-duty hydraulic shears, large cylinders, mounted on excavators for dismantling scraps such as scrap trucks, shears, steel, tanks, pipes, etc. These shears can be used in different work scenarios, including the dismantling of workshops, recycling of waste materials, etc., and can cut iron materials. Unique design and innovation guarantee olecranon shears for steel, cans, tubes, etc. The machine has high efficiency and strong cutting force, and its performance is more than 15% compared with ordinary hydraulic shearing machines. It is one of the larger shear forces in the hydraulic shearing of excavators.     The olecranon scissors can be used to cut waste materials. It can also be applied to the recycling of scrap metal materials, the recycling, and reuse of scrap steel, the dismantling of scrapped automobiles, etc. Realize 360-degree h...

YANMAR Europe well represented at Europe 2022

Image
  From 2 to 5 November 2022 will once again open its physical doors. Yanmar Europe will be there (Hall 1, station 224) to personally introduce visitors to the latest developments in ship engines. This is the first time we have exhibited together at the Joint Booth (Booth 1, Booth 227) with Nikofken, one of our marine engine service distributors in Yanmar, the Netherlands. Nikofken specializes in major repairs and spare parts sales of mainframe and auxiliaries. For 35 years, the company has been an important partner in Yanmar's dealer network. The Dutch market is important Yanmar's European headquarters is in Almere, making the Dutch home market an important one. As a result of their long-standing good relationship with Nikoverken, it was a logical decision that also significantly reinforced each other's advantages in European ports. Visitors can see and experience with their own eyes that the original Japanese Yanmar engine and real parts can also be fast and reliable in th...

Analysis Scheme of Common Fault Causes of Excavators

Image
  Why is it difficult to start the excavator in winter? It is not only determined by its technical conditions but also affected by the outside temperature. It is more difficult to start at a low temperature in winter, mainly due to the following reasons:   (1) In winter, the climate is cold, the ambient temperature is low, the viscosity of the oil increases, and the frictional resistance of various moving parts increases, which reduces the starting speed and makes it difficult to start.   (2) The capacity of the battery decreases as the temperature drops, which further reduces the starting speed.   (3) Due to the reduction of the starting speed, the leakage of compressed air increases, and the heat dissipation of the cylinder wall increases, which greatly reduces the temperature and pressure of the air at the end of compression, which increases the delay period of diesel ignition, and even cannot be burned in severe cases.   (4) The viscosity of diesel oil at lo...
