OIL PUMP CONSTRUCTION [13B-MSP]
id0111e4100600
• The oil pump is installed inside the front cover. The eccentric shaft drives the inner rotors through the oil pump chain and oil pump sprocket.
• A trochoid type oil pump has been adopted.
• The oil pump consists of oil pump body, shaft, front outer rotor, front inner rotor, middle plate, rear inner rotor, rear outer rotor, and oil pump cover.
• A two-rotor type oil pump has been adopted to realize both discharging performance and downsizing. This also contributes to reducing the discharging pulsation which is unique to trochoid pumps.
• An aluminum alloy oil pump body and cover have been adopted to reduce weight.
• The relief valve, which returns engine oil to the intake side when the oil pressure is the specified value or more, is integrated with the oil pump cover.
