Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Brennkraftmaschine nach dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1.The invention relates to an internal combustion engine according to the preamble of claim 1.

Um Brennkraftmaschinen in Kraftfahrzeugen schadstoffemissionsärmer zu betreiben, ist es bekannt, sie mit einem Kraftstoffgemisch, z. B. aus Benzin und Methanol, zu versorgen. Die jeweilige Zusammensetzung dieses Kraftstoffgemischs erfordert jedoch eine entsprechende Einstellung von Zündanlage und Gemischaufbereitungsanlage der Brennkraftmaschinen.In order to reduce pollutant emissions to internal combustion engines in motor vehicles operate, it is known to use a fuel mixture, e.g. B. from gasoline and methanol. The respective composition of this However, the fuel mixture requires an appropriate setting of Ignition system and mixture processing system of internal combustion engines.

Es ist deshalb Aufgabe der Erfindung, eine hochwirksame Einrichtung für Brennkraftmaschinen zu schaffen, mit der die Zusammensetzung des Kraftstoffgemisches, beispielsweise bestehend aus Benzin und Methanol, gemessen und mit daraus gewonnenen Signalen die Zündanlage und die Gemischaufbereitungsanlage entsprechend eingestellt werden.It is therefore an object of the invention to provide a highly effective device for To create internal combustion engines with which the composition of the Fuel mixture, for example consisting of gasoline and methanol, measured and with the signals obtained from it the ignition system and the Mixture processing system can be set accordingly.

Erfindungsgemäß wird diese Aufgabe durch die kennzeichnenden Merkmale des Patentanspruchs 1 gelöst. Weitere, die Erfindung ausgestaltende Merkmale sind in den Unteransprüchen enthalten.According to the invention, this object is achieved by the characterizing features of Claim 1 solved. Further features embodying the invention are contained in the subclaims.

Die mit der Erfindung hauptsächlich erzielten Vorteile sind darin zu sehen, daß mit der Schallmeßeinrichtung auf einfache, jedoch sichere Weise die jeweilige Zusammensetzung des Kraftstoffgemisches ermittelt wird, wobei mit den gewonnenen Signalen funktionsgerecht die Zündanlage und die Gemischaufbereitungsanlage eingestellt werden.The main advantages achieved with the invention are the following: that with the sound measuring device in a simple but safe way respective composition of the fuel mixture is determined, with the ignition signals and the signals obtained functionally Mixture processing system can be set.

In der Zeichnung, die eine schematisch dargestellte Brennkraftmaschine wiedergibt, ist ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung gezeigt, das nachstehend näher beschrieben ist.In the drawing, which is a schematically illustrated internal combustion engine reproduces an embodiment of the invention is shown, the is described in more detail below.

Eine Brennkraftmaschine 1 der Viertakt-Hubkolbenbauart, die beispielsweise vier in Reihe angeordnete Zylinder umfaßt, ist mit einer Zündanlage 2 und einer Gemischaufbereitungsanlage 3 versehen. Letztere ist an ein Kraftstoffversorgungssystem 4 angeschlossen. An internal combustion engine 1 of the four-stroke piston type, which comprises, for example, four cylinders arranged in series, is provided with an ignition system 2 and a mixture processing system 3 . The latter is connected to a fuel supply system 4 .

Die Brennkraftmaschine 1 wird mit einem Kraftstoffgemisch, z. B. aus Benzin und Methanol (flexible-fuel) betrieben, wobei die Zusammensetzung des Kraftstoffgemischs, insbesondere seine physikalische Eigenschaft; hier besonders die akustische, mittels einer Schallmeßeinrichtung 5 ermittelt wird. Die Schallmeßeinrichtung 5 wird gebildet durch einen Ultraschallsender 6 und einen Ultraschallempfänger 7, die mit Abstand zueinander an einer Kraftstoffgemisch-Meßstrecke 8, die durch einen Kraftstoffbehälter 9 dargestellt sein kann, angeordnet sind. Der Kraftstoffbehälter 9 ist entweder über eine Leitung 10 mit einem Haupt-Kraftstoffbehälter verbunden oder bildet selbst letzteren.The internal combustion engine 1 is mixed with a fuel mixture, e.g. B. operated from gasoline and methanol (flexible fuel), the composition of the fuel mixture, in particular its physical property; here in particular the acoustic one is determined by means of a sound measuring device 5 . The sound measuring device 5 is formed by an ultrasonic transmitter 6 and an ultrasonic receiver 7 , which are arranged at a distance from one another on a fuel mixture measuring section 8 , which can be represented by a fuel tank 9 . The fuel tank 9 is either connected to a main fuel tank via a line 10 or forms the latter itself.

Der Ultraschallsender 6 und der Ultraschallempfänger 7 senden ihre Signale über die Kraftstoffgemisch-Zusammensetzung an einen Signalwandler 11, der einerseits mit einem ersten Steuergerät 12 der Zündanlage 2 und andererseits mit einem zweiten Steuergerät 13 der Gemischaufbereitungsanlage 3 verbunden ist. Beide Steuergeräte können in einem Rechner vereinigt sein. Die Gemischaufbereitungsanlage 3 kann eine Einspritzvorrichtung oder auch ein Vergaser sein.The ultrasonic transmitter 6 and the ultrasonic receiver 7 send their signals via the fuel mixture composition to a signal converter 11 which is connected on the one hand to a first control unit 12 of the ignition system 2 and on the other hand to a second control unit 13 of the mixture preparation system 3 . Both control units can be combined in one computer. The mixture preparation system 3 can be an injection device or a carburetor.

Beim Betrieb der Brennkraftmaschine 1 wird die Zusammensetzung des Kraftstoffgemischs (= Anteile des Benzins und des Methanols) über den Ultraschallsender 6 und den Ultraschallempfänger 7 gemessen. Daraus werden Signale an den Signalwandler 11 gemeldet. Der Signalwandler 11 meldet Signale an das erste Steuergerät 12, das den Zündzeitpunkt beeinflußt und das zweite Steuergerät 13, das (bei einer Einspritzanlage) die Einspritzmenge und die Öffnungszeit einstellt (bei einem Vergaser wird der Querschnitt der Düse verändert).When the internal combustion engine 1 is operating, the composition of the fuel mixture (= proportions of the gasoline and the methanol) is measured via the ultrasonic transmitter 6 and the ultrasonic receiver 7 . From this, signals are reported to the signal converter 11 . The signal converter 11 reports signals to the first control unit 12 , which influences the ignition timing and the second control unit 13 , which (in the case of an injection system) sets the injection quantity and the opening time (in the case of a carburetor, the cross section of the nozzle is changed).
