Description

Camshaft for internal combustion engine
Technical field
One aspect of the present invention is related to a kind of camshaft of exhaust valve for internal combustion engine.According on one side, this is convex Wheel shaft has moveable cam contour element, obtains cam contour shape relevant to revolving speed by means of the cam contour element Shape.
Background technique
It is generated by means of camshaft with fixed stroke height and the intake and exhaust valves of stroke duration The valve mechanism of valve stroke is normally used in internal combustion engine.However, such valve mechanism is in the different load to internal combustion engine There are disadvantages in terms of the optimal adaptation of range.Once camshaft will activate in addition, engine is started during starting stage Valve mechanism;However, the energy for the gas in compression and combustion room must be applied by starting engine, this may be in the phase of starting Between cause it is unfavorable.
In order to adapt to such demand, it is allowed for the improved valve stroke curve started there are many valve mechanism.One Kind is extremely simple but effective design is based on following camshaft, it may be assumed that in order to activate valve, which includes being arranged side by side Several cam rails, and the camshaft can carry out transverse shift by means of adjustment unit.Then, suitable for the convex of corresponding demand Wheel track can be selected by the transverse shift of camshaft.In the case where the camshaft for exhaust valve, for example, can be by If under type setting is for a cam of starting stage and for the additional cams of normal operating, it may be assumed that wherein, for starting rank The cam of section provides additional valve opening, to reduce the gas pressure in combustion chamber.
However, such adjustment unit increases space and the weight demands of valve mechanism, and need to adjustment unit Carry out complicated control.Furthermore, it is also possible to damage the stability and intensity of camshaft.
JP 2008-82188 describes a kind of camshaft, has the function of decompression and for phase shift, the decompression function It can depend on the revolving speed of camshaft.Wherein, control shaft 57 is rotated by means of centrifugal mechanism 50 relative to cam 36, to be promoted 65a and 65b(is sold referring to Fig. 6, Fig. 7 of JP 2008-82188).The mechanism need together with kinematic link 59 be attached to this from The tension spring 53 of concentric mechanism, and therefore, there is bigger space requirement.
Further, since control shaft 53 is arranged on rotation axis, at least one shaft end of camshaft must be it is come-at-able, This leads to the limitation of installation and placement to camshaft.
Summary of the invention
The present invention have a kind of target of camshaft is provided, the camshaft on the one hand be it is adjustable, but then, subtract At least some of few disadvantages mentioned above.
According to an aspect of the present invention, camshaft is especially provided the exhaust valve for internal combustion engine.The camshaft packet Include cam and the trigger mechanism for its cam contour element.The cam limits cam contour, for by rotating the camshaft Periodically to activate exhaust valve.The cam includes cam body and the cam contour element.The cam contour element can It is moved to the first cam contour position and the second cam contour position relative to cam body, so that if at cam contour element In the first cam contour position, then the cam contour has the first cam profile, and if at cam contour element In the second cam contour position, then the cam contour has the second cam contour shape different from the first cam profile Shape.The trigger mechanism is configured under lower first camshaft speed (in particular, under first range of speeds) for institute It states cam contour element and is maintained at the first cam contour position, and (in particular, under higher second camshaft speed Under two ranges of speeds, it is higher than the first revolving speed or velocity interval) the cam contour element is maintained at the second cam contour position It sets.
The camshaft has bearing on two sides, that is, it has first bearing and second bearing, for around the cam The camshaft axis of axis is pivotably supported the camshaft, wherein the cam is axially arranged between these bearings.Root According to the present invention, the trigger mechanism is also disposed between these bearings.
Preferably, the cam contour element is prominent in the first cam contour position, for activate (opening) exhaust valve (with Surrounding cam contour is opposite), and in the second cam contour position, it is not prominent or protrusion is less, so that exhaust valve is not subjected to Any, i.e. any substantive additional actuating (opening);It therefore, will not be than the cam contour by means of cam contour component ambient Further open.
Second range of speeds is substantially close to first range of speeds, wherein first range of speeds and second range of speeds Between conversion can be with threshold value or with specific transitions (transition range) Lai Dingyi.Therefore, the trigger mechanism is configured to Cam contour element is maintained at the first cam contour position lower than in the case where predetermined threshold or transition range by revolving speed, and Revolving speed is more than that cam contour element is maintained at the second cam contour position in the case where predetermined threshold or transition range.According to one A aspect, the trigger mechanism be configured to from the first revolving speed to the second revolving speed (or from first range of speeds to the second revolving speed Range) transition period take cam contour element to second cam contour position from the first cam contour position.
For example, the first revolving speed can be located in the typical range of speeds for starting.According on one side, also depend on First revolving speed of engine type is between 0rpm and 1,000rpm, and preferably between 0rpm and 500rpm.Second turn Speed can be located in the normal operation range of engine, in each case relative to the revolving speed of camshaft, higher than about 500rpm, and preferably higher than 700rpm or 1,000rpm.Therefore, the threshold value can be located at for example between 500rpm and 1, In the range of speeds between 000rpm.
Therefore, camshaft according to the present invention allows cam profile relevant to revolving speed, and therefore, allows to be vented The valve stroke curve relevant to revolving speed of door.According to a particular aspects, under the slow-speed of revolution typical for starting stage, Cam contour element is prominent (in the first cam contour position), so that realizing additional valve opening (with higher revolving speed or the Compare two cam contour positions) so that needing the pressure starter motor in combustion chamber using less effort.
According to an aspect of the present invention, can realize in the case where the transverse shift of not cam should be related to revolving speed Cam profile.Particularly, this enables camshaft to install on two sides.Installation on two sides makes it possible to especially Power is transmitted advantageously between cam and valve, this is because avoiding the undesirable bending vibration of camshaft, and energy It is enough neatly to control valve mechanism.
First cam profile can be different from the second cam profile, particular in that the first cam profile With protruding portion, to open exhaust valve (70) during the compression travel of internal combustion engine.The protruding portion preferably takes up described convex The rotation angle range between 1 ° and 30 ° of wheel shaft.The protruding portion is preferably centered on phase on the direction of rotation of cam Maximum eccentricity or angle (protruding portion of cam body) for cam contour bias the angle between 90 ° and 270 °, Particularly preferably bias the angle between 90 ° and 180 °.
The cam contour element preferably (in axial direction) is mounted in cam in center.
Herein, "one" always refers to "at least one";For example, " cam "=" at least one cam " etc..The One range of speeds may include static (revolving speed 0).
In dependent claims and to showing other expedients in being described below of attached drawing.There, embodiment Various aspects and the appended drawing reference of details attached drawing indicate;However, these appended drawing references are only shown and are for the purpose of illustration.

Specific embodiment
Figures 1 and 2 show that the exhaust for internal combustion engine with camshaft 10 according to an embodiment of the invention The valve mechanism of door 70.Camshaft 10 includes cam 11, is arranged to actuating exhaust valve 70.Camshaft 10 can be revolved around its axis Turn.For this purpose, camshaft 10 is supported in cylinder head by bearing 8a, 8b, therefore propped up on two sides by bearing 8a, 8b Support.Therefore, it is overhead camshaft.Camshaft 10 further includes centrifugal elements 21, is come below in relation to Fig. 3 and Fig. 4 more detailed Ground description.
Installation part 8a, 8b on two sides allow the advantageous power between cam and valve to transmit, this is because keeping away The undesirable bending vibration of camshaft is exempted from.Installation part on two sides also allows for neatly controlling valve mechanism; According to a preferred aspect, the transmission gear or chain conveyer sprocket wheel that are connected to the crankshaft of internal combustion engine are located at the side 7a of camshaft On, and the output gear for being connected to inlet valve drive shaft is located on the other side 7b of camshaft 10.This allows the cam Axis is in valve mechanism described in such as DE 102005057127.
The valve mechanism further includes the mechanism for activating exhaust valve 70 by cam 11.Shown in fig. 1 and 2 Embodiment in, the mechanism include be arranged in cam 11 and export valve 70 between rocker arm 60 and gasket 72 so that the outlet Valve is activated via rocker arm 60 and tappet 72 by cam 11.Fig. 2 also shows valve spring 74, makes valve 70 against convex 11 biasing (at least by stages, for example, in the case where valve is activated) of wheel, and therefore, valve 70 and cam 11 it Between generate force closure.In the stage that valve is not activated, valve is pressed into valve seating by valve spring, which applies Corresponding reaction force.
As can be seen in Figure 2, cam 11 includes cam body 12 and cam contour element 40(referring to Fig. 3 b, figure 4b;In Fig. 2, it is only capable of seeing one end of the cam contour element as relief surface 44), the cam body 12 and cam contour Element 40 limits the cam contour 16 of cam 11 together.More precisely, decompression of the cam contour 16 by cam contour element 40 Surface 44(is also appointed as the cam contour surface of cam contour element) and cam body 12 remaining cam contour surface 14 It is formed.Cam contour 16 is the section profile of cam 11, which activates exhaust valve in the case where camshaft 10 rotates 70, and therefore, the valve stroke curve of exhaust valve 70 is had decisive impact.
Cam contour element 40 is designed to pin, is retractable into cam body 12 and stretches out from cam body 12 (referring also to Fig. 3 b, Fig. 4 b).
In extended position (the first cam contour position shown in Fig. 3 b), the cam contour surface of cam contour element 40 44 is prominent relative to remaining cam contour surface 14.As a result, pass through the cam contour surface 44 of cam contour element 40, outlet Valve 70 is subjected to additional actuating (opening).In retracted position (the second cam contour position shown in Fig. 4 b), cam contour Surface 44, which is arranged to, to be flushed with remaining cam contour surface 14 and (does not protrude substantially) so that outlet valve be not subjected to it is any Additional actuating (opening), it means that do not have tangible actuating (opening).Therefore, cam contour 16 has variable cam wheel Profile shape, depending on cam contour element 40 is in the first cam contour position or the second cam contour position.
As a result, the cam contour surface 44 of cam contour element 40 be disposed in cam contour 16 as in lower section, it may be assumed that In the section, at least in the second cam contour position or in remaining cam of the section around cam contour element 40 On contour surface 14, outlet valve 70 is closed.
Therefore, the cam contour surface 44 of cam contour element 40 is used as relief surface 44;In typical starting stage Under the slow-speed of revolution, additional valve opening (in the first cam contour position) allows the pressure in combustion chamber to be released, so as to combustion The pressure starter motor in room is burnt to need using less effort.Under higher rotation speed typical for normal operating, it is therefore prevented that Additional valve opening, so that the loss of engine efficiency need not be received.
As shown in Figure 2, axial direction of the cam contour element 40(relative to camshaft) in center it is mounted on cam 11 In.This center installation, especially combines with the valve mechanism with rocker arm 60, it is ensured that power is from cam 11 to valve 70 Uniform and low-loss transmitting.According to general aspect, the center of cam contour element 40 is to be less than the 20% of cam width from convex The center deviation of wheel (relative to axial direction).
Fig. 3 and Fig. 4 illustrates in greater detail the trigger mechanism 20 of valve mechanism as shown in Figures 1 and 2, by means of this Trigger mechanism 20, cam contour element 40 move according to revolving speed and (retract and stretch out).Therefore, trigger mechanism 20 ensures cam wheel Wide element 40 or its cam contour surface 44 are stretched out at the low rotational speed (the first cam contour position) and (the under higher rotation speeds Two cam contour positions) it retracts.
Fig. 3 a, Fig. 4 a are the side views from the right side in Fig. 2 as a result,;Fig. 3 b, Fig. 4 b are the plane A-A along Fig. 2 Side sectional view;And Fig. 3 c, Fig. 4 c are the side sectional views of the plane B-B along Fig. 2.Fig. 3 a-c is shown in the first cam The cam contour element of outline position, and Fig. 4 a-c shows the cam contour element in the second cam contour position.
Fig. 3 a, the side view of Fig. 3 c or section view show the centrifugal elements 21 of trigger mechanism 20.Centrifugal elements 21 are set It is calculated as lever, there is the first lever arm 27 and the second lever arm 28 on two sides, and centrifugal elements 21 can be revolved around axis 22 It is mounted on camshaft 10 with turning and (that is, being mounted on the suspension rotated together with camshaft 10, here, is mounted on cam body On 12, which is rigidly connected to camshaft 10).Fig. 3 a, Fig. 3 c show the centrifugation in the first eccentric position Element 21;In Fig. 4 a, Fig. 4 c, it is shown at the second eccentric position, in second eccentric position, 21 phase of centrifugal elements First eccentric position is rotated clockwise around axis 22.
Biasing element 30 shown in Fig. 3 c, Fig. 4 c makes centrifugal elements 21 towards the first eccentric position (in Fig. 3 a, Fig. 4 a In view, counterclockwise) biasing.Biasing element 30 is disposed in the opening for passing through camshaft and being laterally extended of camshaft 10 In, so that the rotation axis that the longitudinal axis of biasing element 30 passes through camshaft extends at right angle.The biasing can be by multiple Position spring realizes that the reset spring is approximate with the longitudinal axis of biasing element 30 in camshaft 10 to be disposed concentrically upon, and is made Biasing element 30 presss from both sides (pressure) and leans on centrifugal elements 21.The reset spring can be the opening (in retainer) for being clipped in camshaft and partially Set the retainer on element 30() between compressed spring.
In one aspect, the slave camshaft 10 of biasing element 30 is convex towards being shorter in length than for the section outstanding of centrifugal elements 21 The camshaft radius of wheel shaft 10 at this location.This is suitable for the first eccentric position and/or the second eccentric position.This allows to bias The particularly compact arrangement of element 30.
In the first eccentric position, centrifugal elements 21 press from both sides (pressure) by biasing element 30 and lean on the first retainer.Here, first stops Moving part is for example formed by the middleware 26 of the first lever arm and camshaft 10 at the first lever arm.First retainer is disposed in On the lever sides different from biasing element 30 of centrifugal elements 21.First retainer limitation centrifugal elements 21 make in biasing element 30 The pivot on direction that centrifugal elements 21 bias.The pivot of centrifugal elements 21 in the opposite direction is biased the reset bullet of element 30 The maximum compression of spring limits, or is limited by the additional retainer between the second lever arm 28 and camshaft 10.
In one aspect, biasing element 30 is connected to centrifugal elements 21 in a manner of force-fitting;Particularly, it is pressed against centrifugation Element 21.
Centrifugal elements 21 are made to be located at resting position, Huo Zhe towards the biasing that the first eccentric position applies by biasing element 30 Under the slow-speed of revolution (the first revolving speed) of camshaft, it is located at the first eccentric position, as shown in fig. 3a.
In the shown embodiment, centrifugal elements are designed to lever.Lever 21, and especially its lever arm 27,28, ruler It is very little to be set such that the centrifugal force acted on as the cam shaft rotates acts on the first lever arm 27 than on the second lever arm 28 It is stronger, and therefore, apply the torque towards the second eccentric position in centrifugal elements 21 as a whole (that is, in Fig. 3 a, figure It is oriented clockwise in the view of 4a).If revolving speed is more than specific threshold (for example, being in higher second revolving speed), the torque More than the biasing of biasing element 30, and as a result, centrifugal elements 21 are subsequently positioned at the second eccentric position, such as institute in Fig. 4 a Show.
According on one side, the lever extends along the partial sector around camshaft 10.According to one aspect, the first thick stick The center of gravity of lever arm 27 is more than 90 °, preferably more than 120 ° relative to the centre offset of the second lever arm 28, or is even more than 135°.According on one side, the center of gravity and/or lever end of the first lever arm 27 are relative to pivot axis 22(relative to cam The rotation axis of axis 10 and on the spatially extended direction of centrifugal elements 21) biasing more than 90 °, preferably more than 120 °, Or even more than 135 °.According on one side, the center of gravity and/or lever end of the second lever arm 28 are relative to pivot axis 22 Biasing is less than 90 °, and preferably less than 45 °, or even less than 30 °.According on one side, the center of gravity of the first lever arm 27 and/ Or lever end biases twice of the angle of the center of gravity or lever end more than the second lever arm 28, three relative to pivot axis 22 Times or even four times.Herein, angle always surrounds the rotation axis of camshaft 10 and prolongs in the space of centrifugal elements 21 It is limited on the direction stretched.These aspects allow lever to have sufficiently large lever arm, and at the same time having in radial directions low Space requirement, so that compact design is possible.
According on one side, centrifugal elements (lever) 21 can be pivoted around the lever axis for being parallel to camshaft axis.According to On one side, it arranges to the lever axis opposing cam axis eccentric axis;Preferably, its protrusion in cam body 12 Direction on radially remote from camshaft axis.The protrusion is the radial angular range since camshaft axis, There is the angular deviation less than 30 ° on the direction of the protrusion (maximum eccentricity) of cam body 12.
According to additional aspect, centrifugal elements 21 are arranged to and 12 direct neighbor of cam, that is, therebetween without another function Energy part, such as the bearing for cam etc..Axial distance (side according to one aspect, between centrifugal elements 21 and cam 12 Face to side) it is less than 0.5cm.According to one aspect, between the central plane of centrifugal elements 21 and the central plane of cam 12 Axial distance is less than twice of the axial width of cam or less than 1.5 times, or the axial width of even less than cam.According to one A aspect, camshaft are supported on two sides, and centrifugal elements 21 are disposed between two bearings 8a, 8b.This makes It can be realized compact design in axial direction.
Fig. 3 b, Fig. 4 b show cam contour element 40 and coupled connection mechanism, which is couple to centrifugal elements 21 Cam contour element 40.
This coupling is implemented so that if centrifugal elements (21) take the first eccentric position (as shown in figure 3b), Cam contour element (40) is maintained at the first cam contour position, and if centrifugal elements (21) take the second eccentric position (as shown in fig 4b), then cam contour element (40) is maintained at the second cam contour position.
Cam contour element 40 is designed to pin, and the blind hole of cam body 12 is at least partially disposed at along pin axis In, and can be withdrawn into the blind hole.The surface that the slave blind hole of cam contour element 40 faces out forms cam contour surface 44.In the first cam contour position (Fig. 3 b), the pin is at least partly stretched out from blind hole, and in the second cam contour position (Fig. 4 b), the pin are substantially retracted into blind hole, so that cam contour surface 44 is flushed with circumferential surface.
Coupled connection mechanism between centrifugal elements 21 and cam contour element 40 realized by moveable stop-motion body 24, The stop-motion body 24 is in first or second stop position, this depends on the eccentric position of centrifugal elements 21.The stop-motion body is designed For pin, which is rigidly connected to centrifugal elements 21 and can rotate around the axis for being parallel to camshaft axis.
According on one side, stop-motion body 24 is connected in a manner of just sealed (positive-locking), particularly rigidity To centrifugal elements 21.According on one side, connection opposing cam axis eccentric axis between centrifugal elements 21 and stop-motion body 24 Arrangement, it is preferable that radial partially with the protruding portion or protrusion (+/- 30 ° of angular range around prominent) of cam body 12 It sets.
According on one side, by moving centrifugal elements 21 between the first and second eccentric positions, which can To be rotated around the stop body axis for being parallel to camshaft axis.According on one side, stop-motion body 24 or stop body axis are relatively convex Axle axis is prejudicially arranged, is preferably arranged in the protrusion of cam body 12.According to one aspect, stop body axis It is equivalent to the lever axis of centrifugal elements (lever) 21, and stop-motion body 24 can rotate together with centrifugal elements 21.
Cam contour element 40 is biased against stop-motion body 24.The biasing is not shown, and can for example pass through reset spring It realizes, the axis of the reset spring and cam contour element 40 is disposed concentrically upon, and cam contour element 40 is made to press from both sides (pressure) By stop-motion body 24.The reset spring can be the retainer being clipped in the blind hole or cam body 12() and cam contour element Retainer on 40() between compressed spring.According on one side, cam contour element 40 is connected in a manner of force-fitting Stop-motion body 24(is pressed against it).According on one side, the contact portion between stop-motion body 24 and cam contour element 40 is disposed in In cam body 12, it is preferably arranged in the protrusion of cam body 12.
According on one side, stop-motion body 24 is non-circular in the part that the folder of cam contour element 40 leans on stop-motion body 24.
If centrifugal elements 21 are in the first eccentric position, stop-motion body 24 is in the first stop position and is cam wheel Wide element 40 provides the first retainer, which limits the first cam contour position for being used for cam contour element 40. If centrifugal elements 21 are in the second eccentric position, stop-motion body 24 is in the second stop position and is cam contour element 40 The second retainer is provided, which limits the second cam contour position for being used for cam contour element 40.According to one Aspect, the first retainer and the second retainer are different.Preferably, the second retainer is recessed relative to the first retainer.
Fig. 3 b, Fig. 4 b embodiment in, which is realized by axis 24, the axis 24 around axis 22(Fig. 3 c, figure It 4c) rotates and is rigidly connected to centrifugal elements 21.Therefore, according to the eccentric position of centrifugal elements 21, axis 24 is rotated to First stop position (Fig. 3 b) or the second stop position (Fig. 4 b).
Cam contour element 40 is pin, is mounted in cam 11, can be shifted along cam contour element axis, and against The biasing of axis (stop-motion body) 24 (that is, along second cam contour location bias of direction or direction of cam body 12).
Based on this biasing, therefore cam contour element 40 takes retainer using position specified by axis 24.In axis 24 The first stop position (Fig. 3 b), retainer generated by the section relatively more outstanding of axis 24.This prevents cam contour element 40 are moved in cam body 12 (towards the second cam contour position), so that cam contour element 40 is in the first cam contour Position, that is, its cam contour surface 44 is prominent relative to remaining cam contour surface 14.
In the second stop position (Fig. 4 b), the section that retainer passes through the relatively fewer protrusion of axis 24 or flattens is generated.This Release cam contoured component 40 is moved in cam body 12 (towards the second cam contour position), and due to the biasing, Therefore cam contour element 40 is in the second cam contour position, that is, it will not be prominent with its cam contour surface 44.
In this way, it realizes under the slow-speed of revolution (the first revolving speed), cam contour surface 44 is prominent, and therefore, draws The additional actuating for playing exhaust valve 70, as shown in Fig. 3 a-3c, and under higher rotation speed (the second revolving speed), cam contour surface 44 flush with remaining cam contour surface 14, and it is therefore prevented that exhaust valve 70 additional actuating.
Referring to Fig. 5, the position of cam contour element 40 will more accurately be described.As already mentioned, cam contour element 40 cam contour surface, more precisely, the center 44' on the cam contour surface, is preferably arranged in cam contour 16 At lower section, it may be assumed that at the section, at least in the second cam contour position or in remaining cam contour table of the section In face, outlet valve is closed.
The cam contour surface of cam contour element 40 is preferably arranged in the pressure for distributing to internal combustion engine of cam contour 16 In the section of indention journey.
Angle [alpha] between the maximum eccentricity 16a of cam contour 16 and the center 44' on cam contour surface is preferably less than 180 ° (measured along direction of rotation as shown in Figure 5, wherein the direction of rotation be it is clockwise, as based in Fig. 3 b and Fig. 4 b Shown in rocker arm 60 it can be seen that).For example, angle [alpha] can between 90 ° and 180 °, preferably between 105 ° and 180 °, Or even between 125 ° and 180 °.Which ensure that cam contour surface is effective as relief surface, and during starting It can be released stress from combustion chamber.
The maximum eccentricity 16a of cam contour 16 is usually unrelated with cam contour position, and is defined as avoiding opposite Ambiguity in the second cam contour position.
