Abstract

This device serves for the extraction of fuel from the two tank chambers of a semitrailer tanker, of which only one has a fuel pump. In order to be able to extract fuel from the other chamber, complex and costly measures have to be put into operation. The novel device has the features, for this purpose, of likewise connecting the other tank chamber to the fuel pump by way of a conduit rising up over the partitions, and of the two conduits having valves (10, 11, 13) which react to the filling level in the tank chamber (6) without a pump (7) by one valve being closed and the other being opened and vice versa. As a result, using simple means, the tank chamber is emptied without a pump. <IMAGE>

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zur Brenn­ stoffabsaugung aus zwei unterhalb einer Trennwand nicht verbundenen Tankkammern eines Satteltanks, nach dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1.The invention relates to a device for burning fabric suction from two below a partition unconnected tank chambers of a saddle tank, according to the preamble of claim 1.

Um den Nutzraum von Kraftfahrzeugen zu vergrößern, werden Brennstofftanks über Antriebsbauteile oder Auspuffrohrteile des Fahrzeuges angeordnet, wobei hierfür der Tank im Bodenbereich Aushöhlungen auf­ weist, die Trennwände bilden zwischen beiderseits der Aushöhlungen bestehende Tankkammern, die aus baulichen oder sicherheitsrelevanten Gründen keine tieferliegenden Verbindungsleitungen aufweisen sol­ len.To increase the usable space of motor vehicles, are fuel tanks via drive components or Exhaust pipe parts of the vehicle arranged, wherein for this, the tank hollows out in the bottom area points, the partitions form between on both sides of the hollows existing tank chambers that are made of constructional or security-related reasons none have lower-lying connecting lines len.

Es ist somit erforderlich, Maßnahmen zu treffen, die sicherstellen, daß kein ungenutzter Brennstoff in den bestehenden Tankkammern verbleibt.It is therefore necessary to take measures which ensure that no unused fuel remains in the existing tank chambers.

Eine bekannte Vorrichtung sieht hierfür vor, daß in der Tankkammer ohne Brennstoffpumpe eine Saugstrahlpumpe angeordnet ist, die von der Brenn­ stoffrücklaufmenge, daß heißt, der von dem Kraft­ fahrzeugmotor nicht benötigten Überschußmenge, ge­ speist wird (DE-C2-39 40 060).A known device provides for this that the tank chamber without a fuel pump Suction jet pump is arranged by the Brenn Return quantity of substances, that is, that of the force vehicle engine not required excess amount, ge is fed (DE-C2-39 40 060).

Nachteilig ist bei dieser Vorrichtung, daß die für den Betrieb der Saugstrahlpumpe benötigte Brenn­ stoffmenge auch bei Vollastbetrieb des Kraftfahr­ zeugmotors von der Brennstoffpumpe bereitgestellt werden muß, daß heißt, diese muß für eine höhere Förderung ausgelegt sein.The disadvantage of this device is that the the operation of the suction jet pump amount of substance even when the motor is operating at full load Stuff motor provided by the fuel pump must be, that is, this must be for a higher one Funding.

Aus der japanischen Gebrauchsmusterveröffentlichung 57-109921 ist eine andere Lösung bekannt, bei der immer wenn der in einer Hauptkammer befindliche Brennstoff ausgeht, ein Schaltventil betätigt wird, so daß Brennstoff aus einer Hilfskammer angesaugt wird.From the Japanese utility model publication 57-109921 another solution is known in which whenever the one in a main chamber Fuel runs out, a switching valve is actuated,  so that fuel is sucked in from an auxiliary chamber becomes.

Eine solche Konstruktion erfordert demnach das Schaltventil und andere Baueinheiten wie eine Meß­ einheit des Flüssigkeitsspiegels und eine Steuereinheit zur automatischen Betätigung des Schaltventils, was sehr kostspielig und kompliziert ist.Such a construction therefore requires that Switch valve and other units like a measuring unit of the liquid level and a Control unit for automatic actuation of the Switching valve, which is very expensive and complicated is.

Hiervon ausgehend liegt der Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine gattungsgemäße Vorrichtung derart zu gestalten, daß eine Entleerung der beiden Tankkam­ mern erreichbar wird, wobei die Brennstoffpumpe im Vergleich zu der Vorrichtung mit Saugstrahlpumpe nur für eine ausreichende Motor-Brennstoff-Versor­ gung ausgelegt sein soll.Proceeding from this, the object of the invention based on such a generic device shape that an emptying of the two tank came mern is reached, the fuel pump in Comparison to the device with suction jet pump only for an adequate engine fuel supply should be designed.

Diese Aufgabe ist durch die im Kennzeichen des Pa­ tentanspruchs 1 angegebenen Merkmale gelöst. Vor­ teilhafte Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind in den Unteransprüchen angegeben.This task is characterized by the characteristics of Pa Features specified 1 solved. Before partial developments of the invention are in the Subclaims specified.

Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung ist schema­ tisch in der Zeichnung dargestellt und wird nach­ folgend mit Angabe von erreichbaren Vorteilen be­ schrieben.An embodiment of the invention is schematic table shown in the drawing and is after following with indication of achievable advantages wrote.

Die Zeichnung zeigtThe drawing shows

Fig. 1 einen sogenannten Satteltank mit Brennstoff; FIG. 1 is a so-called saddle tank with fuel;

Fig. 2 ohne Brennstoff in Tankkammer ohne Pumpe. Fig. 2 without fuel in the tank chamber without a pump.

Fig. 1 zeigt einen Brennstofftank 1 mit einer Aus­ höhlung 2 im Bodenbereich 3, wodurch Trennwände 4 gebildet sind zwischen beiderseits der Aushöhlung 2 bestehende Tankkammern 5, 6. Diese sollen aus bau­ lichen oder sicherheitsrelevanten Gründen keine tieferliegenden Verbindungsleitungen aufweisen. Fig. 1 shows a fuel tank 1 with a hollow from 2 in the bottom area 3 , whereby partitions 4 are formed between the two sides of the cavity 2 existing tank chambers 5 , 6th For structural or safety-related reasons, these should not have any lower connecting cables.

In der rechten Tankkammer 5 ist eine übliche Brenn­ stoffpumpe 7 angeordnet, die ganz oder teilweise vom Brennstoff umspült ist. Diese Brennstoffpumpe 7 weist eine Ansaugleitung 8 auf, die Brennstoff aus der rechten Tankkammer 5 absaugen soll, und eine weitere Ansaugleitung 9, die über die Trennwand 4 hinweg in die linke Tankkammer 6 einmündet.In the right tank chamber 5 , a conventional fuel pump 7 is arranged, which is wholly or partially surrounded by the fuel. This fuel pump 7 has an intake line 8 , which is intended to extract fuel from the right tank chamber 5 , and a further intake line 9 , which opens into the left tank chamber 6 via the partition 4 .

Beide Leitungen 8, 9 münden so tief wie möglich im Tankbodenbereich aus.Both lines 8 , 9 open out as deep as possible in the tank bottom area.

Erfindungsgemäß weisen beide Leitungen 8, 9 Ventile 10, 11 auf, die auf den Füllstand in der Tankkammer 6 ohne Pumpe 7 reagieren, in der Art, daß ein Ven­ til geschlossen und das andere geöffnet wird und umgekehrt.According to the invention, both lines 8 , 9 have valves 10 , 11 which react to the fill level in the tank chamber 6 without a pump 7 , in such a way that one valve is closed and the other is opened and vice versa.

Es hat sich als vorteilhaft herausgestellt, wenn die Tankkammer 5 mit der Brennstoffpumpe 7 einen möglichst hohen Füllstand aufweist. Deshalb wird zunächst die Tankkammer 6 ohne Pumpe 7 entleert.It has proven to be advantageous if the tank chamber 5 with the fuel pump 7 has the highest possible fill level. Therefore, the tank chamber 6 is first emptied without the pump 7 .

Hierfür weist die Ansaugleitung 9 der linken Tank­ kammer 6 das Ventil 11, hier ein Schwimmerventil, auf, das von einem Hebelschwimmer 12 betätigt wird. Bei hohem Füllstand schwimmt der Hebelschwimmer 9 12 auf und die Ansaugleitung 9 bzw. das Ventil 11 ist geöffnet.For this purpose, the suction line 9 of the left tank chamber 6, the valve 11 , here a float valve, which is actuated by a lever float 12 . When the fill level is high, the lever float 9 12 floats and the suction line 9 or the valve 11 is opened.

Die Ansaugleitung 8 der anderen Tankkammer 5 ist durch das Ventil 11, hier ein Saugventil 13, ver­ schlossen, so daß Brennstoff nur aus der linken Tankkammer 6 angesaugt wird. Fällt der Füllstand in der linken Tankkammer 6 unter einen vorgegebenen Füllstand, taucht der Hebelschwimmer 12 auf und be­ lastet das Schwimmerventil 11, so daß die Ansaug­ leitung 9 verschlossen wird, wie in der Fig. 2 dar­ gestellt ist. Unter dem fallenden Ansaugdruck öff­ net das Saugventil 13, so daß nun die rechte Tank­ kammer 5 entleert wird. Das Schwimmerventil 11 kann entgegen der Darstellung auch von einem Schwimmer­ körper, zum Beispiel einer Kugel, betätigt werden, daß heißt, der Schwimmerkörper bildet dann gleich­ zeitig ein Ventilschließglied.The suction line 8 of the other tank chamber 5 is closed by the valve 11 , here a suction valve 13 , so that fuel is sucked in only from the left tank chamber 6 . If the level in the left tank chamber 6 falls below a predetermined level, the lever float 12 appears and loads the float valve 11 , so that the suction line 9 is closed, as shown in FIG. 2. Under the falling suction pressure, the suction valve 13 opens so that the right tank chamber 5 is now emptied. The float valve 11 can, contrary to the illustration, also be actuated by a float body, for example a ball, that is to say the float body then forms a valve closing element at the same time.

Es kann vorteilhaft sein, wenn das Schwimmerventil als Ganzes aus einem schwereren Gehäuse besteht und am Tankboden aufliegt.It can be beneficial if the float valve as a whole consists of a heavier case and rests on the bottom of the tank.

Die Brennstoffpumpe 7 kann aus einer Reihenanord­ nung von Pumpenwerken bestehen, von denen irgend­ eine Stufe die Ansaugung aus der linken Tankkammer bewirkt. Bei Einsatz eines sogenannten Schwall­ topfes kann eine für die Befüllung des Schwall­ topfes vorgesehene Saugstrahlpumpe gleichfalls für die Entleerung der linken Tankkammer 6 eingesetzt werden.The fuel pump 7 can consist of a series arrangement of pumping stations, of which any stage causes the suction from the left tank chamber. When using a so-called surge pot, a suction jet pump provided for filling the surge pot can also be used for emptying the left tank chamber 6 .

Eine etwas andere vorstellbare Lösung sieht vor, daß der Füllstand in der Tankkammer 6 ohne Pumpe von einem Schwimmerschalter und die Ventile der beiden Leitungen von einem 2/3-Wegeventil gebildet sind. Hierdurch läßt sich erreichen, daß die Absau­ gung aus der Tankkammer 5 mit Pumpe 7 ungedrosselt erfolgen kann, da eine Ansaugdruckabsenkung, die notwendig wäre, das Saugventil 13 zu öffnen, nicht mehr erfolgen muß, da das 2/3-Wegeventil aktiv öff­ net oder verschließt.A somewhat different conceivable solution provides that the fill level in the tank chamber 6 without a pump is formed by a float switch and the valves of the two lines are formed by a 2/3 way valve. This can be achieved that the suction supply from the tank chamber 5 with the pump 7 can be done without throttling, since a suction pressure reduction, which would be necessary to open the suction valve 13 , no longer has to take place, since the 2/3 way valve actively opens or closes.
