Where is the engine oil pump installed?
1 Answers
Oil pump installation location depends on the type of oil pump, generally installed inside the engine, inside the oil pan. Here is some information about oil pumps: 1. For automotive lubrication system oil pumps, commonly used are internal gear pumps and rotor pumps. 2. Internal gear pump: The internal gear pump is usually installed at the front of the cylinder block, with the driving gear sleeve on the front end of the crankshaft and directly driven by the crankshaft. 3. Rotor pump: The rotor-type oil pump consists of a housing, inner rotor, outer rotor, and pump cover. The inner and outer rotors are not concentric and have an eccentric distance. The inner rotor drives the outer rotor to rotate together in the same direction.
