Abstract
The present invention discloses an engine oil supply system, which includes an oil pan for storing lubricating oil. An oil suction pipe is disposed in the oil pan, the oil suction pipe is twisted in the oil pan, and at least two oil suction portions are disposed on the oil suction pipe, so that at least one oil suction portion is below a lubricating oil level when the engine is in any position. The technical solution disclosed by the present invention can ensure that the lubricating oil can enter each part of the engine for lubrication through the oil supply system when the engine is used either in a leant or inverted manner.
