A valve (20) for controlling the return rate is arranged in the line (18, 19, 21). In order to prevent the formation of condensates in the exhaust-side line when the valve is closed, a purge line (22) is provided which leads from the exhaust-side line section (18, 19) to a point with a lower pressure than the exhaust side.

Description

Stand der TechnikState of the art

Die Erfindung geht aus von einer Einrichtung nach der Gattung des Hauptanspruches.The invention relates to a device according to the preamble of the main claim.

Es ist bekannt, Brennkraftmaschinen zur Verbesserung der Abgasqualität mit einer sogenannten Abgasrückführung zu versehen. Dabei führt eine Bypaß-Leitung von der Abgasseite der Brennkraftmaschine zur Ansaugseite. In der Bypaßleitung ist dabei ein Ventil vorgesehen, das nach vorgegebenen Kriterien zum Einstellen der Rückführrate angesteuert wird. Eine derartige Einrichtung ist beispielsweise aus der DE-OS 29 09 465 = US-PS 4 333 440 bekannt.It is known to provide internal combustion engines with so-called exhaust gas recirculation in order to improve the exhaust gas quality. A bypass line leads from the exhaust side of the internal combustion engine to the intake side. A valve is provided in the bypass line, which is controlled according to predetermined criteria for setting the return rate. Such a device is known for example from DE-OS 29 09 465 = US Pat. No. 4,333,440.

Bei Zylinderköpfen mit nebeneinanderliegenden Ventilen ist die Abgasrückführleitung schon aus baulichen Gründen in der Regel recht kurz- Bei Motoren mit Querstromzylinderkopf ist jedoch infolge dieser Bauart eine relativ lange Leitungsführung von der Abgasseite zur Ansaugseite erforderlich. Wird die Rückführrate, beispielsweise bei Vollastfahren, relativ gering eingestellt, wird das Ventil in der Abgasrückführleitung geschlossen. Dann kommt es in der Rückführleitung zur Abkühlung des Abgases und damit zur Bildung von Kondensaten. Wird die Rückführrate nun wieder erhöht, gelangt das in der Rückführleitung angesammelte Kondensat in den Ansaugtrakt des Motors und führt zusammen mit dem abgekühlten Abgasanteil aus dem Totvolumen der Rückführleitung zu einem undefinierten Übergangsverhalten der Brennkraftmaschine. Da die Regelung der Brennkraftmaschine jedoch auf heisses Abgas abgestimmt ist, kommt es so zu Fehlsteuerungen der Brennkraftmaschine, durch die einmal das Fahrverhalten verschlechtert wird, zum anderen aber auch die durch die Abgasrückführung angestrebte Verbesserung der Abgasqualität zunichte gemacht werden kann.In the case of cylinder heads with valves lying side by side, the exhaust gas recirculation line is generally quite short for structural reasons alone. However, in the case of engines with a crossflow cylinder head, this type is one relatively long piping from the exhaust side to the intake side required. If the recirculation rate is set relatively low, for example when driving at full load, the valve in the exhaust gas recirculation line is closed. Then the exhaust gas cools down in the return line and thus condensate is formed. If the recirculation rate is then increased again, the condensate accumulated in the recirculation line reaches the intake manifold of the engine and, together with the cooled exhaust gas fraction from the dead volume of the recirculation line, leads to an undefined transition behavior of the internal combustion engine. However, since the regulation of the internal combustion engine is matched to hot exhaust gas, this leads to incorrect control of the internal combustion engine which, on the one hand, worsens driving behavior and, on the other hand, can also nullify the improvement in exhaust gas quality which is aimed for by exhaust gas recirculation.

Vorteile der ErfindungAdvantages of the invention

Die erfindungsgemäße Einrichtung mit den kennzeichnenden Merkmalen des Hauptanspruchs hat demgegenüber den Vorteil, daß eine Kondensatbildung vermieden wird, daß damit die Korrosion in der Abgasrückführleitung verringert wird und daß schließlich das Übergangsverhalten der Brennkraftmaschine bei Veränderung der Rückführrate und damit die Abgasqualität verbessert wird.The device according to the invention with the characterizing features of the main claim has the advantage that a formation of condensate is avoided, so that the corrosion in the exhaust gas recirculation line is reduced and that, finally, the transition behavior of the internal combustion engine when changing the recirculation rate and thus the exhaust gas quality is improved.

Durch die in den Unteransprüchen aufgeführten Maßnahmen sind vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen der im Hauptanspruch angegebenen Einrichtung möglich.Advantageous developments of the device specified in the main claim are possible through the measures listed in the subclaims.

So wird in bevorzugter Ausgestaltung der Erfindung der zum Spülen der Abgasrückführleitung erforderliche Unterdruck mit den vorhandenen Mitteln dadurch erzeugt, daß die Rückführleitung zur Verbindung von Vor- und Nachschalldämpfer geführt wird, einem Punkt, der gegenüber der Abgasseite der Brennkraftmaschine einen niedrigeren Druck aufweist. In weiterer Ausgestaltung der Erfindung wird die Spülung dadurch weiter verbessert, daß in dem genannten-Rohrabschnitt zwischen Vor- und Nachschalldämpfer ein Venturirohr angeordnet wird.Thus, in a preferred embodiment of the invention, the underpressure required for purging the exhaust gas recirculation line is generated with the available means in that the return line is connected to the connection of the front and rear silencers, a point which has a lower pressure than the exhaust side of the internal combustion engine. In a further embodiment of the invention, the flushing is further improved in that a venturi tube is arranged in the pipe section between the front and rear silencer.

Zeichnungdrawing

Die Erfindung ist in der Zeichnung dargestellt und wird in der nachfolgenden Beschreibung näher erläutert. Die einzige Figur zeigt eine Prinzipdarstellung einer Ausführungsform einer erfindungsgemäßen Einrichtung.The invention is illustrated in the drawing and is explained in more detail in the description below. The single figure shows a basic illustration of an embodiment of a device according to the invention.

Beschreibung des AusführungsbeispielsDescription of the embodiment

In Figur 1 bezeichnet 10 den Zylinderkopf einer Brennkraftmaschine, dessen Ansaugseite aus einem Ansaugrohr 11 mit Drosselklappe 12 sowie einem Ansaugkrümmer 13 besteht. Entsprechend besteht die Abgasseite aus einem Auspuffkrümmer 14, der zu einem Vorschalldämpfer 15, einem Rohr 16 sowie einem Nachschalldämpfer 17 führt. Die Abgasseite des Zylinderkopfes 10 ist mit der Ansaugseite über eine Leitung verbunden. Diese besteht zunächst aus einer ersten Leitung 18, die unmittelbar an den Abgasaustritt des Zylinderkopfes 10 angeschlossen ist und in eine zweite Leitung 19 übergeht. Die zweite Leitung 19 führt zu einem Abgas-Rückführventil 20, von dem sich eine dritte Leitung 21 zum Ansaugkrümmer 13 erstreckt. Es versteht sich, daß die dargestellte Leitungsführung nur beispielhaft gemeint ist und konstruktiv im Rahmen fachmännischen Handelns auch abweichend gestaltet werden kann, beispielsweise dadurch., daß das Abgas-Rückführventil 20 unmittelbar im Ansaugkrümmer 13 angeordnet ist. Vom Verbindungspunkt der ersten Leitung 18 und der zweiten Leitung 19 führt erfindungsgemäß.eine Spülleitung 22 zu dem Verbindungsrohr 16 zwischen Vor- und Nachschalldämpfer 15, 17. Im Rohr 16 herrscht ein gegenüber dem Druck am Orte der Einmündung der ersten Leitung 18 in den Auspuffkrümmer 14 geringerer Druck. Die an das Abgas-Rückführventil 20 herangeführte Abgasmenge ist durch entsprechende Dimensionierung der Leitungen 18, 19 größer, als die zur eigentlichen Rückführung benötigte. Der überschüssige Teil des Abgases strömt nun über die Spülleitung 22 in den Auspuff zurück. Dies gilt insbesondere dann, wenn das Abgas-Rückführventil 20 geschlossen ist, so daß der gesamte Durchsatz der ersten Leitung 18 in die Spülleitung 22 strömt. Wird nun die zweite Leitung 19 konstruktiv besonders kurz ausgebildet, sorgt die Spülleitung 22 stets für eine nahezu vollständige Durchströmung des abgasseitigen Rückführleitungsab.schnittes. Im Prinzip wäre es zwar auch möglich, die Spülleitung 22 unmittelbar ins Freie zu führen, da auch dann die erforderlichen Druckverhältnisse gegeben wären, dies würde jedoch Geräuschprobleme mit sich bringen, da das aus der Spülleitung 22 stromende Abgas nicht schallgedämpft wäre. Aus diesem Grunde ist die in der Figur dargestellte Ausführungsform besonders zweckmäßig, da der Nachschalldämpfer 17 für eine genügende Schalldämpfung sorgt. Da die Spülleitung 22 gegenüber der normalen Abgasleitung auch einen geringeren Querschnitt hat, ist die Dämpfungswirkung des Nachschalldämpfers 17 auch ausreichend.In FIG. 1, 10 denotes the cylinder head of an internal combustion engine, the intake side of which consists of an intake pipe 11 with a throttle valve 12 and an intake manifold 13. Accordingly, the exhaust side consists of an exhaust manifold 14, which leads to a front silencer 15, a pipe 16 and a rear silencer 17. The exhaust side of the cylinder head 10 is connected to the intake side via a line. This initially consists of a first line 18 which is connected directly to the exhaust gas outlet of the cylinder head 10 and merges into a second line 19. The second line 19 leads to an exhaust gas recirculation valve 20, from which a third line 21 extends to the intake manifold 13. It is understood that the line routing shown is only meant by way of example and can also be designed differently in the course of professional action, for example by the exhaust gas recirculation valve 20 being arranged directly in the intake manifold 13. According to the invention, a flushing line 22 leads from the connection point of the first line 18 and the second line 19 to the connecting pipe 16 between the front and rear silencers 15, 17. In the pipe 16 there is a pressure relative to the pressure at the point where the first line 18 opens into the exhaust manifold 14 lower pressure. The amount of exhaust gas brought up to the exhaust gas recirculation valve 20 is larger than that required for the actual recirculation by appropriate dimensioning of the lines 18, 19. The excess part of the exhaust gas now flows back through the purge line 22 into the exhaust. This applies in particular when the exhaust gas recirculation valve 20 is closed, so that the entire throughput of the first line 18 flows into the purge line 22. If the second line 19 is designed to be particularly short in terms of construction, the flushing line 22 always ensures an almost complete flow through the exhaust-side return line section. In principle, it would also be possible to lead the purge line 22 directly into the open, since the required pressure conditions would then also be present, but this would cause noise problems, since the exhaust gas flowing out of the purge line 22 would not be soundproofed. For this reason, the embodiment shown in the figure is particularly expedient, since the rear silencer 17 provides sufficient sound absorption. Since the purge line 22 also has a smaller cross section than the normal exhaust line, the damping effect of the rear silencer 17 is also sufficient.

Sofern bei entsprechender Dimensionierung der Auspuffanlage die Druckdifferenz zwischen Auspuffkrümmer 14 und Rohr 16 zu gering ist, kann in weiterer Ausgestaltung der Erfindung das Rohr 16 mit einem Venturirohr 23 versehen sein, so daß der für die Spülung erforderliche Unterdruck im Rohr 16 gewährleistet ist.If, with appropriate dimensioning of the exhaust system, the pressure difference between the exhaust manifold 14 and the pipe 16 is too small, the pipe 16 can be provided with a venturi pipe 23 in a further embodiment of the invention, so that the vacuum required in the pipe 16 for the purge is ensured.
