Description
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of method of operating internal-combustion engines.
Background technique
Known, in order to influence compression or inflation process, a subsidiary combustion chamber is set, this subsidiary combustion chamber is connected with cylinder in the compression of engine cycles or during expansion period or disconnects.EP0095252 proposes to use between compression period this subsidiary combustion chamber to capture the part of cylinder intake, and this part is transformable, so that change the effective compression ratio of motor.Unexamined patent application PCT/GB2004/001018 proposes subsidiary combustion chamber as the buffer cavity in the air mixing power engine vehicle, so that service vehicle slows down thus as the gas compression machine operation when motor, in two steps, pressurized gas is delivered to the pressurized gas storage via this subsidiary combustion chamber, and, in two steps, make via the expansion of compressed gas of this subsidiary combustion chamber from the compressed gas storage device when motor when service vehicle quickens thus as the air expansion machine operation.Another unexamined patent application GB0405828.5 proposes to use subsidiary combustion chamber to change the compression temperature of cylinder intake, so that realize the CAI/HCCI burning and influence automatic ignition timing.
In order to use notion set forth above, up to the present, special-purpose subsidiary combustion chamber must be set and carve the control valve special that is connected with cylinder in due course, so that change the internal gas transmission.Yet this system has increased cost and complexity, and is difficult to be installed in the confined space of engine chamber.
Summary of the invention
According to the present invention, a kind of method of operating internal-combustion engines is provided, this internal-combustion engine has cylinder, first and second suction ports, first and second intake valves, one-way valve and variable valve actuation system, wherein cylinder has reciprocating piston, first and second suction ports are used for making gas to supply to cylinder from ambient air, in first and second intake valves each all is arranged between a corresponding suction port and the cylinder, one-way valve is arranged in second suction port, only allow gas to flow with a be separated by segment distance and being oriented of second intake valve to cylinder, variable valve actuation system is used to control the opening and closing of at least the second intake valve, the method is characterized in that, in at least one operator scheme of motor, second intake valve is opened and closed, cylinder and ambient air are isolated fully simultaneously, to allow gas between cylinder and subsidiary combustion chamber, to transmit, this subsidiary combustion chamber is limited by the part of second suction port between second intake valve and one-way valve temporarily, the pressure of supplying with greater than ambient air when the pressure in the subsidiary combustion chamber is so that when not having gas to leak through one-way valve, second intake valve is opened.
Motor is known, and wherein one-way valve is arranged in the upstream of intake valve so that improve the intake and exhaust of motor.The present invention is based on this situation and realize, that is, between intake valve and one-way valve the interim enclosed cavity that limits can play with above-mentioned prior art with reference in be used for the identical effect of subsidiary combustion chamber that the internal gas clearing house needs.
Should note, when intake valve the ambient air intake period of engine cycles by timing normally when opening or closing, one-way valve in second suction port will be controlled by the swabbing pressure from cylinder, and will open automatically to allow ambient air to flow through along the direction to cylinder.On the other hand, when the opening and closing that need internal gas transmission and intake valve are changed when second suction port temporarily being connected to the local compression that is higher than from the suction pressure of ambient air constantly, second suction port will no longer play the effect that stream of ambient air is opened one's mouth, but motor still can be with passing through the air-operated that first suction port is supplied with, so that except the charging efficiency that may reduce motor, the running of motor there is not significant adverse effect.
In the present invention, convert interim subsidiary combustion chamber to by end with second suction port, in the firing chamber, do not need additional space to comprise this equipment, and by utilizing existing intake valve and valve actuation system thereof, and need not repeat to control necessary connection valve of independent subsidiary combustion chamber and related valves actuating system, save cost thus.
One-way valve is preferably and is installed in the leaf valve that is used to isolate interim subsidiary combustion chamber in second suction port.
In one embodiment of the invention, can motor be operated as variable compression ratio engine by following such method step, promptly, after the press cycles that moves on to engine cycles constantly by the opening and closing with second intake valve begins, interim subsidiary combustion chamber temporarily is connected with cylinder, capture the part of compress inlet air thus in subsidiary combustion chamber, this part is transformable, so that change the effective compression ratio of motor.
Above-mentioned subsidiary combustion chamber is set uses the suggestion that is used for variable compression ratio engine that illustrates among the EP0095252.And, by changing effective compression ratio, can this method be used to change the compression temperature of cylinder intake, so that realize the CAI/HCCI burning and influence automatic ignition timing according to the suggestion that illustrates among the GB0405828.5.
In Another application, in order in the circulation that is not having fuel to misfire during the vehicle deceleration, to absorb power, can make motor as the air compression machine operation by following such method step, promptly, move on to the early stage of the press cycles terminal point of engine cycles constantly by opening and closing with second intake valve, described interim subsidiary combustion chamber temporarily is connected with cylinder, in subsidiary combustion chamber, capture some pressurized air thus, temporarily be connected with the external pressurization air accumulator with the subsidiary combustion chamber that the open/close valve of timing between the described forced air storage will seal then by being arranged on described subsidiary combustion chamber then, thus some pressurized air be delivered in the air accumulator.
The subsidiary combustion chamber that sealing is provided then makes the suggestion that illustrates in PCT/GB2004/001018 can be applied to the air mixing power engine via close/open valve to the above further connection of external compression air accumulator, this air mixing power engine once in a while during vehicle deceleration with acting on the air compressor that absorbs power from reciprocating piston.In this case, method of the present invention will capture some pressurized air during the back press cycles of engine cycles in interim subsidiary combustion chamber, and during the residue process of engine cycles, the air that traps is discharged in the external pressurized air accumulator subsequently, in the forced air storage, stores some compressed air energies thus.
The pressurized air that stores can be reused in the air mixing power engine later in every way, as stopping-rising the operation period starting and reset motor, the accelerating period give engine booster with compressed-air actuated quick release in case reduce from turbosupercharger response lag, quick ignition and particle trapper are regenerated and secondary air are sprayed into engine exhaust and be the motor power-assisted under certain cruising condition for catalyzer.
Especially in another one is used, method of the present invention can be applied in particular combinations " starting-igniting (the crank-fire) " circulation, and this circulation is used for stopping-rising the operation period use and is stored in the pneumatic starting motor of external pressurized air accumulator and makes engine ignition.In this case, change the opening and closing timing of first and second intake valves, so that being supplied with, cylinder and ambient air isolate, promptly, during the air inlet cycle of engine cycles, do not open first intake valve (by means of the variable valve actuation system of the disconnected cylinder of valve), normally open and close simultaneously second intake valve, and close/open valve is connected to the external pressurized air accumulator with second suction port by opening regularly.During above-mentioned starting-ignition cycle, one-way valve in second suction port will keep owing to the air pressure from the outside air storage closing, and pressurized air will enter cylinder during the air inlet cycle and simultaneously with the high drive piston, produce the auxiliary power that is used to pilot engine thus.Identical air is compressed in back to back press cycles then and is lighted with fuel, produces further combustion powered thus.This will very rapidly quicken to motor with two torque pulse in same circulation.
By a whole row cylinder being connected to shared external pressurized air accumulator according to said method, starting-ignition cycle will be only one or two crankshaft revolution with the ignition order of interior and cylinder automatically synchronously, turning crankshaft and moment reset motor.In case motor starts, pressurized air from the outside air storage just is cut off, and motor will smoothly and naturally carry out the transition to normal fired mode, one-way valve in second suction port is opened immediately automatically to draw ambient air by suction port in circulation subsequently simultaneously, then activates first intake valve again.Therefore be very effective process according to the starting-ignition cycle of internal gas transmission method of the present invention for stopping in the air mixing power engine-play operation.
During driving, acceleration and the quick starting of vehicle, above-mentioned starting-ignition cycle also can be used for giving engine booster with the very high pressure-charging of the compressed air pressure of a lot of crust, though be the very short time, but produce the very big torque that surpasses by the instantaneous torque of turbocharger supercharged normal, expected, therefore eliminated response lag and the emission smoke intensity problem that causes by turbo lag.
Certainly, motor ambient air air inlet cycle of can be at any time constantly all moving on to engine cycles by the opening and closing with first and second intake valves switches to two circulation suction ports operations, so that charging efficiency maximizes.
In above-mentioned application of the present invention, use variable valve actuation system to change the opening and closing moment of first and second intake valves.This can be to use the full flexible variable valve actuation system of the no cam type of electric liquid or electromagnetic actuators, but this system still is in the prototyping stage and very complicated and expensive at present.Therefore advantage of the present invention be also can use how simply and realize through the cam-actuated system of checking, as the disconnected cylinder (de-act) of variable cam timing (VCT), lift range variable and duration (VVLD), cam profile conversion (CPS) and valve, all these can become the standarized component in the volume production motor rapidly.
For quick reference, VCT realizes that by variable phase device timing pulley drive camshaft its example can find, as Ford (Ford in a lot of motors
), General Motors (General Motors
) and (Toyota of Toyota
), VVLD realizes that by the variable-geometry rocking arm its example can be at BMW (BMW
) find in the motor, CPS realizes that with one optional joint the in two available fixed cam profile on common cam shaft its example can be at Honda (Honda by cam follower
) find in the motor, the disconnected cylinder of valve realizes by the locking framework with lost motion, this mechanism is by being the modulated displacement engine exploitation according to (Eaton) company.
By selecting most economical variable valve actuation system for the different engine application of using internal gas transmission method of the present invention as required, can produce efficient and reliable kit for every kind of application.For example, use the interim subsidiary combustion chamber that produces by the present invention variable compression ratio engine can by the VVLD conjugation with little valve lift and narrow valve duration on second intake valve VCT and control.In another example, use the low-cost air mixing power engine of interim subsidiary combustion chamber between ignition mode and compressor mode, to switch, and switch to starting-ignition cycle pattern by the disconnected cylinder of valve that acts on first intake valve during also can stopping-rising by VCT or the CPS that acts on second intake valve.And, also can comprise another VCT or the CPS system that act on first intake valve in this motor, with the same high speed performance that improves with traditional application target.
In above-mentioned example, it is power operated extra functional that the hardware of producing VCT, VVLD, CPS or the disconnected cylinder verified is used to obtain variable compression ratio, HCCI/CAI burning control and air mixing.This makes internal gas switching method height of the present invention practicality only needs less development effort to realize potentiality.
