What's the use of an oil pump in an automobile engine?
The function of the oil pump is to send the oil to the friction parts of the engine, so that the engine oil is circulating in the lubrication road to ensure the engine to be well lubricated. The oil pump is mostly gear pump. It consists of gear pump body and so on. When the engine works, the camshaft drives the drive gear of the pump body. The gear swing oil flows along the inner wall of the pump from the oil inlet to the oil outlet, forming a low pressure to generate suction, and the oil in the oil box is sucked into the oil inlet. And the oil at the mouth of the oil more and more, and therefore increased pressure, oil will be pressed to each of the friction parts, the realization of forced lubrication.
When the engine is transported within pump oil lubrication parts inside the engine.
Give the oil pressure so that it can be recycled to the point where it needs lubrication
