Description

Rocking arm for the valve actuating mechanism of internal combustion engine
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of rocking arm of the valve actuating mechanism for internal combustion engine, the rocking arm is fabricated to plate forming part And the side wall of the recess with alignment with two, fulcrum post is inserted in the recess with its end regions, the fulcrum post For it is can rotating, the roller of the fulcrum post is surrounded, wherein be set to be used for can be rollably against eccentric wheel or cam for the roller.
Background technology
Valve actuating mechanism with the rocking arm for starting the type is known from document DE4234868A1.Here, rocking arm The recess inserted as the end regions of bearing screw rod, in each side wall with hole.On pin in the hole of the side wall of rocking arm In be fixed from illustrated from the document.For the valve actuation with the end regions for accommodating fulcrum post In the known rocking arm of mechanism, forming method is needed for fixation of the pin on the side wall of rocking arm, for example pin is suppressed or Riveting, or need additional locking member.
However, by the way that reshaping method is applied on pin, the selection for the raw material of the pin is restricted.In addition, Compacting or the riveting machine for needing to expend for reshaping, extend the whole week of manufacture method by the function of the compacting or riveting machine Phase.The structural solutions with additional locking member for pin to be fixed in the corresponding hole of side wall have the disadvantage that It is, its channel profiles for needing additional component and usually requiring pin.
The content of the invention
The present invention is based on following purpose, that is, a kind of rocking arm for having and being provided with fulcrum post is proposed, in the rocking arm Both the reshaping method of pin need not be used for also without additional locking component.
According to the present invention, the purpose is by making the use that there is the side wall of rocking arm the axial direction along pin outwards to deform respectively Realized in the abutting region of the side of pin.
Abutting region for pin can be on the wall of side from side wall top edge.The top edge of side wall and the ring week in roller On contact site it is adjacent, cam is applied on roller at the contact site.Pin can with the side region on its top against On the abutting region of side wall.It thus limit the Axial mobility of pin, and in addition, the rigidity of rocking arm is by means of being inserted Pin keeps constant or is even enhanced according to structure space.
The abutting region of the outside deformation of side wall can be constituted with channel section shape.The recess of side wall have cylinder, The profile being open upwards, the angle of circumference of the recess or more than 180 degree, then wherein cylindrical pin is solid with its end regions Surely it is snapped in recess.
Or the angle of circumference of the profile of recess is less than or equal to 180 degree, then pin loosely inserts recessed with its end regions In mouthful, i.e., it is not fixed therein.But, in both cases, all pin is radially shape-ordinatedly maintained in recess.
By means of being according to the obtainable advantage of rocking arm of the present invention:Unrestricted choice, simplification for the raw material of pin Form fit that installation process, anti-shotpin are removed in the axial direction and the rigidity improved if necessary relative to known rocking arm.
Brief description of the drawings
Be shown in the drawings one embodiment of the present of invention, and be described in detail below with according to previously known The comparison of the rocking arm of prior art.Accompanying drawing is shown:
Fig. 1 shows the perspective representation of the rocking arm according to the present invention;
Fig. 2 shows the side view of rocking arm;
Fig. 3 shows the vertical vertical section of rocking arm;
Fig. 4 shows the vertical cross section of rocking arm;
Fig. 5 shows the lower view of rocking arm, is partly splitted in support region;And
Fig. 6 shows the vertical section of the previously known valve actuating mechanism with rocking arm.
Embodiment
The well-known valve actuating mechanism 1 of the internal-combustion piston engine of Fig. 6 with reference to the accompanying drawings is arranged on shown partially In cylinder head 2 and by cam 3, the Rocker arm 4 with roller 5, support component 6 and the air-exchanging valves 7 of the camshaft not being shown specifically Constitute.Support component 6 is arranged in the receiving hole 8 of cylinder head 2 and via the fuel feeding of pressure medium hole 9.In addition, support component has There is spherical end section 10, the ball-and-socket 11 of Rocker arm 4 is supported by the end section.
Rocker arm 4 can be fabricated to plate forming part, wherein the rocking arm has substantially U-shaped cross section.In rocking arm On the end 12 of ball-and-socket 11, Rocker arm 4 is bonded on the valve stem 13 of air-exchanging valves 7.Air-exchanging valves 7 have valve retainer 14 And pre-tensioner in a closed position via valve spring 15, the valve spring is in axial direction fixed via spring-leaf retainer 16 On valve stem 13.Roller 5 is introduced into the side wall 18,19 of Rocker arm 4 via pin 17.It is fixed in order to be able to rotationally be supported on roller 5 On pin 17 in the wall of side, needle bearing 20 is used.When cam 3 rotates, roller 5 is rolled on the ring week of cam 3.
Two parallel side walls 22 and 23 being connected to each other are had according to the rocking arm 21 of the present invention, between side wall 22 and 23 Roller 24 can be rotatably supported on fulcrum post 25 in gap.Rolling bearing or sliding bearing can be used for supporting.In the embodiment In, provided with needle bearing 26, the set-up mode of the needle bearing is shown in Fig. 3 to 5 of accompanying drawing.Needle bearing 26 surrounds branch Consign and 25 and concentrically surrounded by roller 24.On the end regions of two axial directions of pin, pin 25 is maintained at rocking arm 21 In side wall 22 and 23.Each end regions of pin 25 are inserted in the recess 27 or 28 of corresponding side wall.
As shown in Figure 2, the recess 28 of side wall 23 has cylindrical, the profile that is open upwards with circumferential angle alpha.Equally Ground constitutes the recess 27 of side wall 22.According to the numerical value of the angle of circumference, pin 25 is with two end regions or is regularly engaged Insert into recess 27 and 28 or loosely in recess 27 and 28 so that the pin is radially shape-ordinatedly kept there In side wall 22 and 23.
In order to limit the motion of pin 25 in the axial direction, each side wall 22 or 23 has the abutting region 29 outwards deformed Or 30.The abutting region extends out and terminated in recessed from the top genesis of side wall 22 and 23 in the upper area of pin 25 On the cylindrical profile of mouth 27 and 28.Because two sides of pin 25 are interior with the abutting region 29 or 30 of side wall 22 or 23 Surface is adjacent, so abutting region limits the Axial mobility of pin.
