Oil reservoir assembly for vehicle
The present disclosure in some embodiments provides an oil reservoir assembly for a vehicle, the assembly comprising: a first oil reservoir formed with an outlet; a second oil reservoir spaced apart from the first oil reservoir in a lateral direction and in front of the vehicle, in fluid communication with a master cylinder, and having an inlet; a connecting member connecting the outlet and the inlet to convey a working fluid from the first oil reservoir to the second oil reservoir and a first rib located inside the second oil reservoir, extending from an upper surface of the second oil reservoir and parallel to a longitudinal direction of the vehicle, and extending in a first direction of the inlet.
1 . An oil reservoir assembly for a vehicle, comprising:
a first oil reservoir having an outlet;
a second oil reservoir in fluid communication with a master cylinder of the vehicle, having an inlet and spaced apart from the first oil reservoir in a width direction of the vehicle;
a connecting member extending between the outlet of the first oil reservoir and the inlet of the second oil reservoir and configured to convey a working fluid from the first oil reservoir to the second oil reservoir; and
a first rib disposed within the second oil reservoir, protruding downwardly from an upper surface of the second oil reservoir, extending in a longitudinal direction of the vehicle, and adjoining the inlet in the width direction of the vehicle,
wherein, when the vehicle turns, an air pocket is formed on a side of the first rib in the width direction and blocks the inlet of the second oil reservoir to suppress a backward flow of the working fluid from the second oil reservoir to the first oil reservoir.
2 . The oil reservoir assembly of claim 1 , wherein the first rib is located within a predetermined distance from the inlet.
3 . The oil reservoir assembly of claim 1 , wherein the first rib has a predetermined length in a vertical direction of the vehicle.
4 . The oil reservoir assembly of claim 1 , wherein the first rib has an end portion bent in the width direction toward the inlet.
5 . The oil reservoir assembly of claim 1 , wherein the inlet is located at the upper surface or a side surface of the second oil reservoir.
6 . The oil reservoir assembly of claim 1 , wherein the second oil reservoir is spaced apart from the first oil reservoir by at least predetermined distance in a height direction of the vehicle.
7 . The oil reservoir assembly of claim 1 , wherein the second oil reservoir is located at a position closer than predetermined distance from the first oil reservoir in the width direction.
8 . The oil reservoir assembly of claim 1 , wherein the second oil reservoir is spaced apart from the first oil reservoir in the longitudinal direction of a vehicle.
9 . The oil reservoir assembly of claim 1 , wherein:
the second oil reservoir is spaced apart from the first oil reservoir in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle,
a second rib extending from the upper surface of the second oil reservoir in the width direction is located inside the second oil reservoir, and
the second rib is located at a rear of the inlet.
10 . The oil reservoir assembly of claim 1 , wherein the first oil reservoir comprises an oil injection part for injecting the working fluid.
