Description

Valve driving device, internal combustion engine and vehicle
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of passport classification, in particular to a valve driving device, an internal combustion engine and a vehicle.
Background
The valve timing mechanism of the internal combustion engine is used for providing fresh air necessary for the working of gasoline combustion for the cylinders and exhausting the burnt waste gas, and the main function of the valve timing mechanism is to open and close the inlet valve and the outlet valve of each cylinder according to a certain time limit, so that the whole process of ventilation and replenishment of the cylinders of the internal combustion engine is realized. The same theory is applied to the internal combustion engine, so that the concept of valve lift and timing is generated, the valve lift is like the angle of opening of a valve, the valve timing is like the time of opening of the valve, the problem is solved from the perspective of three-dimensional thinking, and the angle and the time are the size of a space, and the air intake and exhaust amounts in unit time are determined.
The valve of the internal combustion engine is usually driven by a cam shaft, and for a common internal combustion engine without variable valve timing technology, the opening and closing time of intake and exhaust is fixed, but the fixed valve timing is difficult to consider the requirements of the internal combustion engine under different rotating speeds and working conditions, and the fixed breathing rhythm prevents the efficiency of the internal combustion engine from being improved.
When the internal combustion engine is in a high rotation speed interval, one working stroke of the four-stroke internal combustion engine only needs a few thousandths of seconds, so that the short time often causes insufficient air intake and incomplete air exhaust of the internal combustion engine, and the efficiency of the internal combustion engine is influenced, so that the defects of insufficient air intake and incomplete air exhaust are required to be overcome through early opening and late closing of the valve, under the condition, the moment that an intake valve and an exhaust valve are simultaneously opened is inevitably generated, and the valve timing is called as a valve overlap angle. The angle of valve overlap tends to have a large impact on engine performance, and is what is appropriate? It is known that the higher the engine speed, the shorter the absolute time that is left to intake and exhaust for each cylinder in one cycle, and therefore the longer the intake and exhaust times of the engine are required to achieve higher charge efficiency. Obviously, the higher the rotational speed, the greater the valve overlap angle required.
When the internal combustion engine is in a low-rotation-speed working condition, excessive valve overlap angle can enable excessive exhaust gas to flow into an air inlet end, the air suction amount can be reduced instead, the air flow in the cylinder can be disturbed, and at the moment, an ECU (electronic control unit, also called a driving computer) can be difficult to accurately control the air-fuel ratio, so that unstable idle speed and low-speed torque are caused. In contrast, if the valve train is optimized for low rotational speed conditions only, the internal combustion engine cannot reach higher peak power at high rotational speeds. So the current internal combustion engine design will choose a compromise and it is not possible to achieve optimum conditions under two distinct conditions.
Therefore, it is important to develop a valve driving device which can be adjusted according to different working conditions of the rotation speed of the internal combustion engine and can obtain ideal air intake and exhaust efficiency at high and low rotation speeds.

wherein, the controller is electrically connected with the telescopic component 12 for controlling the telescopic component 12 to do telescopic motion.
In the valve driving device of the present embodiment, the main piston 21 is pushed to compress the hydraulic oil in the second cavity 82 by the extending movement of the extension member 12, and the compressed hydraulic oil in the second cavity 82 will push the upper piston 22 to move in the direction of the lower piston 23 due to the incompressibility of the hydraulic oil; before the upper piston 22 moves to the lash adjustment hole 201, excess hydraulic oil in the third chamber 83 will flow out of the third chamber 83 from the lash adjustment hole 201, during which the lower piston 23 does not move; the upper piston 22 continues to move to cover the gap adjusting hole 201, at this time, the third chamber 83 is a sealed chamber, and the movement of the upper piston 22 compresses the hydraulic oil in the third chamber 83, and the compressed hydraulic oil in the third chamber 83 pushes the lower piston 23 to move in a direction away from the third chamber 83 due to incompressibility of the hydraulic oil, and the movement of the lower piston 23 pushes the opening and closing of the valve 90.

The seal 84 may be made of a wear-resistant material such as rubber, which is not particularly limited herein, as long as the seal 84 is made of a wear-resistant material.
In one embodiment, the contact area of the main piston 21 with the hydraulic oil is larger than the contact area of the upper piston 22 with the hydraulic oil and larger than the contact area of the lower piston 23 with the hydraulic oil, thereby converting a small stroke of the main piston 21 into a large stroke of the upper piston 22 and the lower piston 23, and increasing the height of the valve driving device for opening the valve 90 while reducing the size of the valve driving device.
It will be appreciated that the size relationship among the main piston 21, the upper piston 22, and the lower piston 23 may be set according to the application scenario of the valve driving device, and the example is not specifically limited herein.
In one embodiment, the valve driving device further comprises a hydraulic connecting pipe and a second hydraulic cylinder;

the third chamber 83 for containing hydraulic oil is formed among the upper piston 22, the first hydraulic cylinder 20, the hydraulic connection pipe, the second hydraulic cylinder, and the lower piston 23. The lower piston 23 is separated from the first hydraulic cylinder 20 by the hydraulic connecting pipe, and the first hydraulic cylinder 20 and the housing 11 are installed separately from the lower piston 23, which is advantageous for installation of the valve driving device in a vehicle.
The hydraulic connection pipe may be a soft pipe or a hard pipe, and is not particularly limited in this example.

In one embodiment, the controller is located within the housing 11 for reducing the number of connecting wires. The controller is arranged in the first cavity 81 formed between the housing 11 and the first hydraulic cylinder 20, so that connecting wires between the controller and the telescopic part 12 are reduced, and the cost is reduced.

In one embodiment, the telescoping member 12 comprises a piezoelectric actuator. The piezoelectric actuator has high control precision, so that stepless adjustment of the stroke of the valve 90 opened and closed by the valve driving device is realized. It will be appreciated that the telescopic member 12 further comprises a motor, a cylinder for telescopic movement, and the examples are not particularly limited.
The piezoelectric actuator is capable of realizing expansion and contraction based on a piezoelectric effect, and can be selected from the prior art, and is not particularly limited herein. The piezoelectric effect, when some dielectrics are deformed by the action of external force along a certain direction, the polarization phenomenon is generated in the dielectrics, meanwhile, opposite charges are generated on the two opposite surfaces of the dielectrics, and when the external force is removed, the dielectrics are restored to an uncharged state, and the phenomenon is called positive piezoelectric effect; when the direction of the force changes, the polarity of the charge changes. Conversely, when an electric field is applied to the dielectric materials in the polarization direction, the dielectric materials are deformed, and when the electric field is removed, the deformation of the dielectric materials disappears, which is called an inverse piezoelectric effect, the coefficients of the positive piezoelectric effect and the inverse piezoelectric effect are equal, and the material having the positive piezoelectric effect inevitably has the inverse piezoelectric effect.
Because the extension distance of the piezoelectric actuator is proportional to the driving voltage, the purpose of changing the lift of the valve 90 can be realized by changing the voltage value of the driving voltage; because the piezoelectric actuator has high control precision, the electronic throttle valve 90 in the prior art can be omitted; because the response speed of the piezoelectric actuator is very high, the opening and closing time of the valve 90 can be precisely controlled, and even the opening mode of the valve 90 can be realized for a plurality of times in one stroke, so that the valve has higher combustion efficiency under the idle speed and low load working conditions.
The compression ratio and the expansion ratio of the traditional otto cycle internal combustion engine are the same, and after the valve driving device is used, the air inlet valve 90 is delayed to close after the air inlet stroke is finished, the piston moves upwards under the drive of the crankshaft, and part of mixed gas sucked into the cylinder is spit back to the air inlet manifold; when the intake valve 90 is closed, the compressed mixture is already less than the mixture sucked in during the intake stroke, the compression ratio is reduced variably, and the expansion ratio is kept unchanged; it is understood that the operation in which the expansion ratio is larger than the compression ratio can also be achieved by controlling the amount of air-fuel mixture sucked into the cylinder by controlling the time and lift of opening the intake valve 90; thereby simply realizing the otto cycle to the miller cycle mode.
In one embodiment, the number of the piezoelectric actuating elements is one, and the piezoelectric actuating element has a simple structure and low cost.
In one embodiment, the number of piezoelectric actuators is at least two, and all of the piezoelectric actuators are arranged in parallel. The support force to the main piston 21 is increased by arranging a plurality of piezoelectric actuators in parallel, and backup can be performed, thereby ensuring the reliability of the operation of the valve driving device.
In one embodiment, the number of piezoelectric actuators is at least two;
The piezoelectric actuators are arranged in series for increasing the distance of linear movement of the main piston 21. The stroke of the main piston 21 is increased by the serial arrangement of the piezoelectric actuators, so that the valve drive device can be applied to a use scenario in which the long telescopic member 12 and the smaller first hydraulic cylinder 20 are used due to insufficient space.
In one embodiment, the series of piezoelectric actuators may be divided into two series, three series, four series, etc., as examples and are not particularly limited. Each group comprises at least one piezoelectric actuator, the travel of the master piston 21 is twice that of the master piston 21 when not in series, three times that of the master piston 21 when not in series, and four times that of the master piston 21 when not in series.
In another embodiment, the piezoelectric actuator further comprises at least one connecting sheet, wherein the connecting sheet is positioned between two adjacent groups of piezoelectric actuators, so that the stability of the piezoelectric actuators when the piezoelectric actuators are arranged in series is improved.
As shown in fig. 4 and 5, in one embodiment, the valve driving device further includes a power supply, a boost control circuit, a half-bridge pre-driving and protecting circuit, and a pulse slope control circuit;
The half-bridge pre-driving and protecting circuit comprises an upper half-bridge circuit and a lower half-bridge circuit;

the drain electrode of the MOS tube of the lower half-bridge circuit is grounded;
the controller is electrically connected with the boost control circuit and the half-bridge pre-driving and protecting circuit and is used for controlling the boost control circuit and the half-bridge pre-driving and protecting circuit to work. Thereby realizing the separate control of the lift of the valve 90 and the timing of the valve 90, and having simple control and high control precision.
The boost control circuit may select an integrated circuit from the prior art, which may steplessly convert an input voltage and output the same, for example, converting an input 12V into an output of 100V or 105V or 200V, which is not particularly limited herein.
The pulse slope control circuit may select an integrated circuit capable of controlling the discharge speed of the piezoelectric actuator from the prior art, which is not described herein. The pulse slope control circuit reduces the impact of the valve 90 and the valve 90 of the valve driving device when the valve 90 is opened and closed, reduces noise and prolongs the service life of the valve driving device.
The lift of the valve 90 can be changed by changing the output voltage of the boost control circuit, and the pulse time of the upper half-bridge circuit of the half-bridge pre-driving and protecting circuit is the opening time of the valve 90, and the pulse time of the lower half-bridge circuit of the half-bridge pre-driving and protecting circuit is the closing time of the valve 90. By changing the pulse slope of the pulse slope control circuit, the speed of opening and closing of the valve 90 can be controlled.
