Second reflux line 49 is connected to reflux line 43 with the outlet of sparger 23.At the downstream part of pressure controlled valve 47, reflux line 43 will supply to preheater 31 with the HFO that crosses, to finish this circulation.

HFO is sent to common rail 40 and is provided with the heating equipment of being represented by the heating coil shown in Fig. 3 from common rail 40 via the pipeline that proportional control valve 25 is sent to hydrovalve actuator 19 and sparger 23 from the outlet of preheater 31.This pipeline can for example be heated by steam tracing or by electrical heating elements on its total length.The HFO that the heating of these pipelines is used to reduce heat is the heat loss when mobile downstream from preheater.At the motor run duration, remain near 150 ℃ towards the temperature of the ducted HFO of sparger and hydrovalve actuator, yet this depends on the viscosity of the HFO that uses.The adjacent channel that extends in parallel on the part of its length for example pressure piping 20 and service 24 can be provided with shared heating equipment (not shown).

Reflux pipeline 43 and 49 also is provided with the heating equipment of same-type as mentioned above.The temperature of HFO is so crucial in reflux pipeline, and heating equipment is adjusted to the temperature of guaranteeing HFO and can be lower than 50 ℃.

At the motor stopping period, HFO enters hydraulic system to avoid air, and avoids local cooling of HFO and sclerosis under the effect of recycle pump 34 and pass hydraulic system circulation (with the lower pressure of 3-10 crust).At the motor stopping period, the temperature of leaving the oil of preheater 31 is set in and is about 50 ℃, solidifies to avoid HFO.

At circulation period, in order not only to arrive sparger 23 but also arrive hydraulic actuator 19, proportional control valve periodic variation position.According to another mode of execution, this proportional control valve is provided with the 4th bypass position (not shown).In this position, proportional control valve leads to sparger and hydrovalve actuator simultaneously.According to another one mode of execution (not shown), independent by-pass valve is set, it allows HFO side by side to flow to sparger and hydrovalve actuator from common rail.

Heated pressure pipeline 20 is provided with device, so that this pipeline can move in about 150 ℃ temperature range of motor run duration from 50 ℃ of circulation period.Stop and after the temperature of HFO was elevated to about 150 ℃ from about 50 ℃, thermal expansion made the length of pressure piping 20 increase at motor, vice versa.

As shown in Figure 5, pressure piping 20 is provided with one or more U-shaped parts 50, the difference of length when it can be absorbed in different running temperature by the flexibility of U-shaped part.Alternately, perhaps combine, need can between two carriages 51 and 52, axially freely overhang in the part of the pressure piping 20 that moves under low temperature and the high temperature and other pipeline, as shown in Figure 6.Each carriage comprises lining 53, holds an end of pressure piping 20 in the lining 53, makes that pressure piping 20 is fixing diametrically but is removable in the axial direction.By cast iron, steel, polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), fluorine rubber, (FPM), copolymer (NBR), nitrite rubber, poly-(dimethyl siloxane) (SI) or similar material O shape circle 54 or the similar packing ring made guarantee sealing airtight basically between pipe end and the lining.The pressure that is applied on two relative free ends of pipeline 20 balances each other.The axial variation of pipeline 20 length is absorbed by its axial pipe end that freely overhangs.

Packing ring in the hydraulic system from cast iron, steel, polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), fluorine rubber, (FPM), copolymer (NBR), nitrite rubber, poly-(dimethyl siloxane) (SI), select its mixture or the similar material, with sealing airtight basically between the parts of guaranteeing hydraulic system.Concrete packing ring is described with reference to Fig. 9 below.

Fig. 4 shows another preferred implementation of hydraulic system.This mode of execution is identical with the mode of execution shown in Fig. 3 basically, yet high-pressure service pump 33 also is used as the low pressure pump that makes the HFO circulation at the motor stopping period.Here, the clutch 56 by central unit control is arranged between gear 37 and the high-pressure service pump 33.At the motor run duration, clutch 56 engages, and high-pressure service pump 33 is driven by bent axle 3.At the motor stopping period, clutch 56 is disengaged.Another clutch 55 by central unit control is arranged between high-pressure service pump 33 and the electric motor 38 '.Clutch 55 is disengaged at the motor run duration, engages at the motor stopping period.Electric motor 38 ' drives high-pressure service pump 33 at the motor stopping period, but more much lower than its motion speed at the motor run duration, is used for the pressure circulation of HFO with the 3-10 crust so that enough hydraulic pressures to be provided.

Describe the preferred implementation of actuator 19 and pneumatic spring 18 below in detail with reference to Fig. 7-11.

Exhaust valve 11 has the bar 57 that extends straight up from valve head 58, and the upper end of bar 57 supports the cylinder 59 that firmly is installed on the valve rod 57, thereby forms wiper seal and vertically can move on stationary piston 60.Stationary piston 60 is parts of spring housing 61.Have the spring housing 62 that is connected to forced air feeding mechanism (not shown) on stationary piston 60, this forced air feeding mechanism keeps spring housing 62 to fill with for example forced air of the predetermined minimum pressure of 4.5 crust overvoltages.Also can use other air pressure, for example the 3-10 crust.Pressure minimum is selected according to the required elastic characteristic of pneumatic spring.Can the spring housing on a plurality of different cylinders is interconnected, but preferably, each spring housing is cut off individually by the safety check 63 at forced air feeding mechanism place.Forced air in the spring housing 62 produces the power that makes progress that continues on cylinder 59.Should power upwards when moving down, cylinder 59 increase, and the air in the extrusion spring chamber 62, safety check 63 prevents that the air in the spring housing 62 from flowing out.

Spring housing 61 defines around pneumatic spring 18 and chamber 64 thereon, position.Chamber 64 is connected to discharge portion 65, makes this chamber have barometric pressure.Any oil that leaks from actuator 19 will enter chamber 64, and discharge via discharge portion 65.This spring is configured such that leaking oil is difficult to enter spring housing 62, because cylinder 59 forms umbrella, it forces and leaks the bottom that oil flows through and arrive chamber 64 thereon downwards, and can not have the risk that enters spring housing 62.This is very important, because when leakage oil is attempted to pass even further entered pneumatic system, leaks oily (HFO) and can assemble and sclerosis or obstruction Pneumatic pipe in spring housing.

With reference to Fig. 7 and 9, hydrovalve actuator 19 is by cylinder 66 structures, and this cylinder is by the top braces of housing 61.Piston 67 is contained in the central hole of cylinder 66.This central hole seals at the place, top of cylinder 66, and opens wide at the place, bottom of cylinder 66.Hole 68 in this central hole and the housing 61 is provided with coaxially.(closely) end of going up of piston 67 is contained in this central hole, and the far-end of piston 67 acts on the top of valve rod 57.

Main pressure chamber 69 limits between the top of cylinder 66 and piston 67.Hydraulic fluid (HFO) is supplied to the hydrovalve actuator via opening 70 and discharges from the hydrovalve actuator.Opening 70 is passed into intermediate pressure chamber 71, this intermediate pressure chamber be arranged under the main pressure chamber 69 and be defined in cylinder 66 and the intermediate portion of piston 67 between.Opening 70 is by proportional control valve control and alternately be connected to pressure piping 20 and reflux line 43, and this proportional control valve is exemplarily illustrated as close/open valve 25 ' in this view, although also usage ratio valve alternatively.Aux. pressure chamber 73 is defined between the respective diameters enlarged portion of the enlarged diameter part 74 of piston 67 and central hole.Alternatively, packing ring 68 ' can be arranged between enlarged diameter part 74 and the cylinder 66, with the amount of the leakage oil that reduces to enter chamber 64.During the first portion that opens stroke of hydraulic actuator 19, the axial passage 75 that aux. pressure chamber 73 forms through the recess 75 by piston 67 is provided with the high pressure HFO from medial compartment 71.During opening stroke, close by the control flange 76 on the cylinder 67 at predetermined neutral position axial passage 75.Simultaneously, opening 77 is connected to reflux pipeline 43 with aux. pressure chamber 73, because the top edge of enlarged diameter part 74 is positioned under the top edge of opening 77 now.Thereby enlarged diameter part 74 helps to overcome during the first portion that opens stroke of hydraulic actuator 19 by the pressure in the firing chamber 15 and is applied to bigger power on the valve head 58.In the predetermined neutral position of piston 67, the supply discontinuity of arriving the high-pressure liquid of ancillary chamber 73, and this aux. pressure chamber is via opening 77 emptyings.Pressure in the firing chamber 15 descends now, and no longer needs the effect of enlarged diameter part 74.

Fig. 8 shows the typical opening curves figure of exhaust valve.In Phase I, the beginning section of opening motion need obtain bigger power from hydraulic actuator 19, overcoming the pressure in the firing chamber 15, and is used to make heavier exhaust valve 11 to quicken.In this stage, hydraulic actuator 19 must provide maximum power.Yet, should avoid the hydraulic shock ripple that produces owing to opening fast of control valve 25 or 25 '.In Phase, exhaust valve 11 arrives the position of opening fully, and in this stage, and exhaust valve 11 should be little by little slack-off and stop, and preferably, can not abut against each other with other object.In Phase I, the return movement of exhaust valve 11 should gently begin, the hydraulic pressure ripple that should avoid the rapid opening and closing owing to control valve 25 or 25 ' to cause.In Phase IV latter stage, it is the most key that valve head 58 drops on the valve seat gradually and accurately, because metal object will abut against each other.Thereby crucial is that exhaust valve 11 and piston 67 are little by little slack-off, thereby huge accelerating force is minimized, and avoid valve head to impinge upon on the valve seat.Exhaust valve 11 suitable opening curves can obtain in many ways according to the present invention.A kind of mode is the simple hydraulic actuator that is used for exhaust valve by use, for example the oil hydraulic cylinder (not shown) combines with the suitable control of proportional control valve, thereby makes the opening degree of exclusiveness basically of proportional control valve guarantee to be used to obtain suitable opening curves by suitable power and resistance that actuator is applied on the exhaust valve.Another kind method is by using hydraulic actuator described herein and valve spring, and it has inherent characteristic, makes the suitable opening curves that is used for exhaust valve to obtain by the ON/OFF control valve.Actuator with inherent characteristic also can combine with Proportional valve.

When exhaust valve will be opened and proportional control valve 25 when high-pressure liquid is fed to opening 70, and make main pressurized chamber, middle pressurized chamber and the pressurization of auxiliary pressurized chamber.The high pressure hydraulic fluid of main pressurized chamber and auxiliary pressurized chamber makes piston be pressed downward.

Piston 67 (first piston part) is provided with piston cap 78 (second piston portion).The top of piston 67 (near-end) slidably engages piston cap 78, thereby forms compensated chamber 79 between piston 67 and piston cap 78.According to preferred implementation, piston cap 78 is enclosed within on the top of piston 67.Yet piston cap 78 also can be arranged to be engaged in (not shown) in the top of piston 67.Spring 80 urges piston 67 and piston cap 78 makes it away from each other, thereby enlarges compensated chamber 79.First flow path is arranged between compensated chamber 79 and the main pressure chamber 69.First flow path comprises valve member 81, and valve member 81 is engaged in the receiving bore in the top of piston cap 78.Spring 80 upwards urges valve member 81 towards piston cap 78.According to another mode of execution (not shown), independent spring can be set be used for upwards urging piston cap 78 and valve member 81.This power that allows to be applied on arbitrary element can be regulated independently of one another.

Valve member 81 is provided with axial bore 82 and two radial holes 83 and 84, and these holes connect compensated chamber 79 and main pressure chamber 69, unless valve member 81 is positioned at its upper position in receiving bore.At this upper position (Fig. 9 and 12), the wall of opening by receiving bore in hole 84 is stoped, thereby first flow path is closed.First flow path is used for when piston 67 is positioned at its upper position allowing excessive hydraulic fluid 79 to overflow from the compensated chamber, and piston cap 78 is because the amount of hydraulic fluid in the compensated chamber 79 too much is set to the top than needed such more close main pressure chamber 69.(Figure 10 and 11) in this case, valve member 81 be against the end surface of cylinder 66, and valve member 81 moves down with respect to piston cap 78, thereby open first flow path, makes that compensated chamber 79 can emptying, leans against on the valve seat up to valve head 58.Thereby first flow path is only just opened when (closely) end place is positioned at little predetermined axial range on cylinder 66 at piston element.

Second flow path is between compensated chamber 79 and intermediate pressure chamber 71.According to preferred implementation, second flow path is formed by the annulus 85 between piston 67 and the piston cap 78.Because annulus 85 is narrower, second flow path has high relatively flow resistance.Second flow path allows compensated chamber 79 to be filled under the effect of spring 80.The suitable characteristics of the power by selecting to be used for spring 80 and the resistance of flow path 85 obtains the suitable filling rule of compensated chamber.

Air refreshing tube 86 with high flow capacity restriction (flow restriction) is arranged on the top of cylinder 66, and the top of the main pressure chamber 69 that will be formed by dampening chamber 87 is connected to reflux line 43.

Piston cap 78 has the periphery of axial taper, and its diameter increases gradually towards piston head.Tapering part cooperates with inwardly outstanding annular flange flange 88, and annular flange flange 88 is led to the position of central hole at opening 70 and located above lucky and extend from central hole.Tapering part forms narrow annulus 89 with annular flange flange 88, and the size of annulus 89 changes along with position of piston.Hydraulic fluid must pass this annulus 89 and be compressed, thereby flow to main pressure chamber 69 from middle pressure chamber 71.This makes and produces pressure drop between intermediate pressure chamber 71 and the main pressure chamber 69.This pressure drop raises during 89 size decreases in the annulus, and along with flow rate increases and increases gradually, thereby prevent that effectively piston 67 from arriving at a high speed.The size of tapering part makes annulus 89 towards the end of opening stroke and less.Towards the end of described stroke, thereby the speed of piston 67 is restricted effectively, even the supply pressure of hydraulic fluid is than higher.Tapering part is shown in Fig. 9-11, and it has bandy slightly profile, but for example frustum of a cone, aduncate slightly profile, both combining form or the predetermined profile of any needs also are possible to other profile.This profile can pass through test method, computer emulation method or analytical method to be determined, described method representation should have much in each position and flow restriction of stroke, so that valve actuator has optimum dynamic property.Then, can correspondingly construct tapering part.

The downward power of actuator 19 and the power that makes progress of pneumatic spring 18 reach balance at the end to outer stroke, and promptly piston 67 and exhaust valve 11 will self stop owing to them, shown in the Phase of Fig. 8.Neither need the supply of cutoff high HFO, also do not need stroke limiting stop to stop piston and exhaust valve.Because the supply of HFO does not need unexpected cut-out, thereby does not have the hydraulic shock ripple, otherwise, described hydraulic shock ripple will be oppressed whole hydraulic system.Do not have stroke limiting stop, thereby make mechanical load lower with impact.

Being fed to the pressure of HFO of hydraulic actuator 19 and the pressure that is fed to the air of pneumatic spring 18 is controlled as and guarantees that exhaust valve 11 arrives suitable open position.The size of actuator 19 and pneumatic spring 18 is arranged so that they are in the open position reverse power of balance easily.

During near the fully open position, the flow path between the tapering part of flange 88 and piston cap 78 narrows down at piston 67.Narrow slit has damping effect for the motion of piston 67, thereby piston stops at open position, and does not almost have or do not have at all to impact and vibration subsequently.

Piston 67 turns back to retracted position under the effect of pneumatic spring 18.Form with dampening chamber 87 is provided with the end of travel damping to hydraulic actuator 19 at the top of cylinder 66 (at near-end).The size at piston cap 78 tops forms with dampening chamber 87 and cooperates with micro-gap, and when the top of second piston portion 78 is inserted in the dampening chamber, in return stroke, the micro-gap outflow dampening chamber 87 that forms by annulus 90 by forcing hydraulic fluid to pass, thereby absorb most of kinetic energy of piston 67 and exhaust valve 11, and valve head 58 is located on the valve seat gently.

By changing the flow resistance that the flow path between opening 70 and the main pressure chamber 69 is regulated in the design of tapering part at the needed pressure in each position of piston 67 according to main pressure chamber 69.Thereby hydrovalve actuator 19 can cooperate well with the high-voltage power supply with change pressure.Low relatively supply pressure will cause lower valve acceleration.Therefore, electronic control unit 26 changes the timing and the length of valve open continuously, with the variation in pressure in the supply of compensation high pressure hydraulic fluid.When supply pressure is low, electronic control unit 26 will indicate proportional control valve 25 to open and stay open longer a period of time earlier, open long enough to guarantee exhaust valve, to discharge the gas in the firing chamber suitably, and when supply pressure was higher, vice versa.

Cylinder 66 comprises ventilation and recirculation conduit 86, and warm thus hydraulic fluid can pass actuator and circulate and turn back in the reflux line 43.This helps when motor does not move valve being remained on running temperature, and this can also remove air effectively.

The operation of hydrovalve

In the closed position of exhaust valve 11, piston cap 78 residing positions are: its top is positioned at dampening chamber 87 inboards and is positioned at the position range that valve member 81 is allowed.Figure 10 shows the highest possible position of piston cap 87, and wherein first flow path is opened, and Figure 12 shows the minimum possible position of piston cap 78, and wherein valve member 81 is closed.In position range, between the wall of the top of piston cap 78 and dampening chamber 87, always there is a narrow annulus 90.

Exhaust valve 11 is by opening to opening 70 (Figure 10) supply high-pressure medium (HFO or fuel oil) from proportional control valve 25 (according to another mode of execution, for example the valve of other type of close/open valve 25 ' or servovalve can be used in alternative Proportional valve).Thus, hydraulic medium is flowed through annulus 89 and annulus 90 and is entered into main pressure chamber 69 and dampening chamber 87, and forms pressure and urge piston 67 downwards.The hydraulic fluid that flows out from opening 70 also flow into medial compartment 71, and enters into aux. pressure chamber 73 via axial passage 75.Thereby the pressure that acts on the enlarged diameter part 74 has increased the power that urges piston 67 downwards.

When on the piston 67 make a concerted effort to surpass the reaction force of pressure in pneumatic spring 18 and the firing chamber time, exhaust valve 11 begins to open.In the incipient stage of opening motion, pass annulus 90 and enter the restricted mobile low pressure that is formed in the dampening chamber 87 that produced in the dampening chamber 87, thereby the incipient stage of guaranteeing to open motion is level and smooth, does not have rapid acceleration and does not have the hydraulic shock ripple, referring to the Phase I of Fig. 8.

When exhaust valve 11 partially opens, the pressure in the firing chamber 15 and finish exhaust valve 11 and open needed power and obviously descend.In this stage, flowing of hydraulic fluid by being cut to aux. pressure chamber 73 by control flange 76, and simultaneously aux. pressure chamber 73 is connected to reflux line 43 via opening 77 and reduces to act on downward power on the piston 67, to allow to supply to aux. pressure chamber 73 in all the other stages of opening stroke from the hydraulic fluid of reflux line 43, allow the further expansion of aux. pressure chamber 73, thereby avoid in axial passage 75 and in aux. pressure chamber 73, air pocket occurring.

When the opening degree of exhaust valve 11 increased, the circulation area in slit 89 reduced.Thereby the pressure in main pressure chamber 69 and the aux. pressure chamber 79 reduces gradually.Pressure in the pneumatic spring 18 increases gradually simultaneously, thereby the velocity-stabilization ground of exhaust valve 11 reduces, up to form good balance between the power that gentle moving medium applies by hydraulic pressure.Because relative hydrodynamic pressure little by little changes, exhaust valve 11 and piston are decelerated to fully smoothly and stop, and do not have any hydraulic shock ripple and Mechanical Contact, with reference to Fig. 8 Phase.The damping function of the circulation area that sharply reduces by slit 89 reduces near any oscillating movement of exhaust valve 11 fully open position.

During the opening stage of exhaust valve 11, valve member 81 is closed owing to the effect of spring 80 and against the downside of living piston cap 78.The amount that flows into the hydraulic fluid of compensated chamber 79 has guaranteed the predefine position of piston cap 78.The pressure difference between intermediate pressure chamber 71 and the main pressure chamber 69 and the power of spring 80 upwards urge piston cap 78, thereby a spot of hydraulic fluid is inhaled between the compensated chamber 79 via the annulus between piston cap and the piston 85.In the fully open position of exhaust valve 11, the pressure of main pressure chamber 69 and intermediate pressure chamber 71 equates, and has only spring 80 upwards to urge piston cap 78.Exhaust valve 11 open and fully during the opening stage, refilling of compensated chamber 79 makes piston cap 78 upwards move lentamente with respect to piston 67.

Exhaust valve 11 cuts out once more when coupling together in proportional control valve 25 change positions and with opening 70 and reflux line 43.The thrust of pneumatic spring 18 makes hydraulic fluid enter the reflux line 43 via annulus 89 from main pressure chamber 69.Little circulation area in the annulus 89 is guaranteed the soft start of return stroke, and during piston 67 moved upward, it had the stable speed that increases, and this speed is controlled by the stable increase of the circulation area of annulus 89, with reference to Fig. 8 Phase I.Because the pressure in the main pressure chamber 69 is higher than intermediate pressure chamber 71, will make compensated chamber 79 dwindle a little via the discharge of annulus 85.Hydraulic fluid in the aux. pressure chamber 73 is via opening 77 emptyings, and when opening 77 is blocked by enlarged diameter part 74, via axial passage 75, medial compartment 71, opening 70 and Returning pipe 43 emptyings.

In the closing movement final stage, piston cap 78 is inserted in the dampening chamber 87, thereby formed annulus 90 has obviously reduced the available circulation area of hydraulic fluid in the dampening chamber.Hydraulic fluid in the dampening chamber 87 flows out dampening chamber via annulus 90, thereby it is used as braking force on piston 67 by the corresponding increase of pressure in the compensated chamber 79, thereby makes its deceleration, with reference to Fig. 8 Phase IV.In the compensated chamber 79 increase of pressure will make some wherein fluid discharge via annulus 85.Thereby before exhaust valve 11 cut out, the speed that valve head 58 lands on valve seat went up by the circulation area of annulus 90 definite largely.Air refreshing tube 86 and annulus 85 more or less help fluid to flow out from dampening chamber 87.

If it is big that compensated chamber 79 has become during the opening stage of exhaust valve 11 fully, piston cap 78 will occupy to be inserted into it compares higher a little position in the dampening chamber 87.Thus, valve member 81 will be against the end (bottom of dampening chamber) of cylinder 66, and opens first flow path, with emptying compensated chamber 79 (Figure 11), makes piston cap 78 can occupy correct position (Figure 10).

If shrink fully the return stroke compensating during chamber 79 at exhaust valve 11, piston cap 78 will occupy to be inserted into it compares lower a little position in the dampening chamber 87, and valve member 81 will be not against the end (Figure 12) of cylinder.Up to next opening stage; spring 80 just can upwards urge piston cap 78; thereby compensated chamber 79 will admit the amount of hydraulic fluid that flows out via annulus 85, up to the end (Figure 13) of valve member 81 against cylinder 66, and guarantee that piston cap 78 occupies position roughly placed in the middle in its axial range.

Piston cap 78 makes hydraulic actuator 19 automatically compensate owing to move under different temperatures, repair with the operation of compensated chamber's 79 combinations---be the grinding of valve seat and the dimensional changes that foozle produced.Thereby valve head 58 will always softly and accurately land on valve seat.

According to an embodiment of the invention, hydraulic actuator 19 also can be embodied as does not have the compensated chamber as shown in Figure 7.It is not too important motor that this mode of execution can be used for dimensional changes compensation, for example when as the general hydraulic fluid of hydraulic fluid when moving for 30-60 ℃.

Although detailed for illustrative purposes description the present invention, it will be appreciated that these details only are the purposes that is used to explain, those skilled in the art can make version under the situation that does not depart from scope of the present invention.
