What is the function of an oil scraper ring?

Oil scraper rings serve a carrying function, transporting lubricating oil to the shaft above the liquid level. The specific functions of oil scraper rings are detailed below: 1. Specific functions of oil scraper rings: The primary function of an oil scraper ring is to scrape off excess oil splashed onto the cylinder wall during the downward stroke, preventing excess oil from entering the combustion chamber and participating in combustion. During the upward stroke, it applies a uniform oil film on the cylinder wall to reduce wear on the piston, piston rings, and cylinder. 2. Classification of oil scraper rings: Oil scraper rings are a type of piston ring, divided into conventional oil scraper rings and composite oil scraper rings. Conventional oil scraper rings are made of alloy cast iron, with a groove cut in the middle of the outer circumference and numerous small oil drainage holes or slits at the bottom of the groove. Composite rings, on the other hand, consist of upper and lower scraper blades and an expander that provides radial and axial elastic force. The scraper blades of composite rings are very thin, exerting high specific pressure on the cylinder wall and strong oil-scraping action.

The oil slinger is absolutely crucial. I deal with it all the time when repairing engines—it's mounted on the crankshaft and spins with it. When the engine runs, oil splashes everywhere inside the crankcase, and the oil slinger uses centrifugal force to fling that oil right back into the oil pan. Without it, you're in trouble—oil can sneak into the combustion chamber, causing blue smoke, and if the piston rings get coated in oil, it messes with their sealing ability. If you see oil leaks at the front or rear of the crankshaft, chances are the oil slinger is either worn out or installed backward. Last time I worked on an old Toyota, the oil leak was so bad the undercarriage was caked in sludge—turned out the oil slinger was warped. Wouldn't you say it's like the engine's little guardian against oil leaks?

Why Does the BYD Han Experience Brake Failure?

The reasons for BYD Han's brake failure are: 1. Severe overloading; 2. Improper operation; 3. Lack of maintenance in the brake system. The solutions are: 1. Release the accelerator pedal, shift to manual mode, and downshift from high to low gears sequentially, engaging the handbrake with each downshift while pressing the brake release button until the vehicle comes to a complete stop, then shift to park; 2. Utilize terrain or emergency escape lanes to decelerate; 3. Use roadside obstacles to reduce speed. Taking the 2020 BYD Han as an example, it is a mid-to-large-sized sedan with body dimensions of 4960mm in length, 1910mm in width, and 1495mm in height, a wheelbase of 2920mm, a fuel tank capacity of 48 liters, and a curb weight of 2020kg. The 2020 BYD Han is equipped with a 2.0T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 192PS, a maximum power of 141kW, and a maximum torque of 320Nm, paired with a 6-speed dual-clutch transmission.

Is It Normal for a Car's Steering Rod to Rust?

It is a normal phenomenon. More extended information is as follows: Overview: Even some high-end cars do not spend money on treatment because these parts are not directly visible during use and do not pose any safety hazards. Therefore, many manufacturers do not treat the steering column, and only some drivers or car owners discover this issue during maintenance, making it relatively common. Treatment Method: Use fine sandpaper to remove and clean the rust on the steering shaft, then melt white candle wax at high temperature and apply the melted wax to the metal part of the steering shaft. The thickness of the wax application can be determined by yourself. This wax application method can provide moisture-proof and air-isolating effects, preventing rust for several years.
