Definitions

  • the invention relates to an expansion tank of a coolant circuit of an internal combustion engine with a filler chamber for receiving coolant, an expansion chamber separated by means of a partition and a connecting line connecting an upper region of the filler chamber with a lower region of the expansion chamber.
  • Such a coolant expansion tank is known from DE-OS 28 52 725.
  • the container is divided into a filling chamber and an expansion chamber by means of a vertically arranged partition.
  • the upper area of the replenishment chamber is connected to the lower area of the expansion chamber via a line.
  • the fill chamber is filled with coolant up to a certain height. In the event of strong heating and thus volume expansion of the cooling liquid, it runs from the filling chamber via the line into the expansion chamber and is subsequently pulled back into the filling chamber by means of negative pressure when the cooling liquid subsequently cools down.
  • a line leads from the underside of the filling chamber of the known container to a suction pump which conveys the sucked-in coolant back into the cooling circuit.
  • the division of the known container into the filling chamber and expansion chamber ensures that the possibility of cavitation of the cooling liquid in the line leading to the pump, i.e. the possibility of the occurrence of steam bubbles due to the negative pressure generated by the pump, is reduced when the cooling liquid level in the filling tank is high.
  • the coolant level in the replenishment chamber drops to a minimum due to a loss of coolant, the risk of cavitation increases due to the reduced geodetic height in the line leading to the pump.
  • the object of the invention is to provide an expansion tank for coolant of the type mentioned in such a way that damage to the components to be cooled is largely excluded in any operating state, that is to say also in the event of loss of coolant.
  • This object is achieved in that the expansion chamber is arranged substantially below the filling chamber.
  • This arrangement ensures that even in the event of a loss of coolant, which results in a drop in the coolant level in the replenishment chamber, there is still coolant up to the level of the expansion chamber located under the replenishment chamber above the line leading to the pump and thus due to the still Relatively high geodetic height cavitation in the pipe is reduced.
  • the connecting line is formed at the connection point to the upper region of the filling chamber to form an air space, the highest point of which lies above the highest point of the filling chamber. It is also possible to form the connecting line at the connection point to the lower region of the expansion chamber into a collecting space, the lowest point of which lies below the lowest point of the expansion chamber.
  • a valve socket is located on the top of the container, which is connected to the expansion chamber by means of a channel and which can be closed by means of a valve cover designed as a pressure relief valve. If the pressure in the expansion chamber rises above a certain value, the pressure relief valve opens and limits the pressure in the entire cooling circuit due to the outflow of gas.
  • An expedient development of the invention provides a suction nozzle which is located on the underside of the container and which is connected to the filling chamber via a connection, in particular a depression formed by means of a slope. Coolant is drained from the replenishment chamber through this suction nozzle.
  • the expansion tank for cooling liquid shown in FIG. 1 mainly consists of a liquid or filling chamber 10 and an air or expansion chamber 11. Both chambers 10 and 11 are separated from one another by a horizontal partition wall 12 and lie one above the other.
  • An upper one Area 35 of the filling chamber 10 is connected via a connecting line 13 to a lower area 36 of the expansion chamber 11.
  • the connecting line 13 has an air space 37 at the point of connection with the upper region 35 of the filling chamber 10, the highest point of which is above the highest point of the filling chamber 10.
  • a filler neck 15 with a filler restriction 15 ' is attached, which can be closed with the aid of a filler cap 16.
  • a valve neck 18 is also formed on the top 41 of the expansion tank and can be closed by means of a valve cover 19.
  • the valve connector 18 is connected to the upper region of the expansion chamber 11 by means of a channel 21.
  • the valve cover 19 contains a pressure relief valve, so that after a certain pressure in the expansion chamber 11 is exceeded, this pressure relief valve opens and connects the channel 21 to an overflow line 20.
  • In the upper region 35 of the filling chamber 10 there are two inlet connections 25 through which cooling liquid is fed to the filling chamber.
  • a low-lying suction nozzle 26 for the filling chamber 10 is arranged on the underside of the expansion chamber 11 and thus on the underside 42 of the expansion tank.
  • the filling chamber 10 is expanded in the region of the suction nozzle 26 with the aid of a bevel 28 which runs from the partition 12 to the bottom 42 of the expansion tank to a recess 27 which leads to the suction nozzle arranged in the bottom 42.
  • FIG. 2 of the expansion tank of FIG. 1 shows the position of the filler cap 16, the Valve cover 19, the suction connector 26, the inlet connector 25 and the cut filling chamber 10 and connecting line 13.
  • the connecting line 13 is located on an outer wall 40, namely on a narrow side of the expansion tank and has a rectangular cross section.
  • a dividing line 30 can be seen in FIG. 2, in which a first shell 45 and a second shell 46 of the expansion tank are connected.
  • This dividing line 30 also divides the connecting line 13, which can be easily formed together with the associated shells.
  • the section of the connecting line 13 of FIG. 1 is section A of FIG. 2
  • the section of the channel 21 of FIG. 1 is section B of FIG. 2
  • the section of the connecting line 13 of FIG. 2 corresponds to the section C of FIG. 1.
  • FIG. 3 shows the narrow side of the expansion tank of FIGS. 1 and 2. From this figure it can be seen that the division joint 30 runs parallel to the connecting line 13, while the partition 12 is at right angles to this connecting line 13 and is therefore arranged horizontally. Likewise, the two inlet connections 25 are arranged in a horizontal position, while the filler connection 15, the valve connection 18 and the suction connection 26 are essentially vertical.
  • the inlet connections 25 are connected to the highest point of the heat exchanger and / or the highest point of the cooling jacket of the internal combustion engine and thus form a vent for the heat exchanger and the internal combustion engine.
  • the suction nozzle 26 is connected via a line to a pump, which sucks the coolant from the expansion tank and feeds it into the normal cooling circuit, which consists of the heat exchanger, a pump and the cooling jacket of the internal combustion engine.
  • the expansion tank is installed in the motor vehicle in such a way that the filler neck 15 and the valve stub 18 are accessible from above and the entire container is in a horizontal position.
  • cooling liquid is filled up to the filling limit in the filling chamber 10 of the expansion tank, so that there is sufficient air space in the filling chamber for receiving the expansion volume of the cooling liquid which arises as a result of heating at normal operating temperature.
  • the initial coolant level will increase as a result of heating and expansion, but no coolant will overflow into the expansion chamber 11 via the connecting line 13.
  • the cooling liquid heats up to such an extent due to the inadequate or non-existent cooling that the expansion causes the cooling liquid to flow via the connecting line 13 from the Filling chamber 10 overflows into the expansion chamber 11. Since the expansion chamber 11 is sealed off by the valve cover 19, the pressure in the expansion chamber 11 increases, so that after cooling the cooling liquid again due to the overpressure in the expansion chamber and the resulting negative pressure in the filling chamber 10, the cooling liquid from the expansion chamber 11 into the Filling chamber 10 is sucked back via the connecting line 13.
  • the collecting space 38 is provided, in which the cooling liquid present in the expansion chamber 11 can collect. Analogously, a certain amount of residual air remains in the air space 37 even when the entire filling chamber 10 is filled with cooling liquid again. This makes it possible that any gas bubbles rise from the cooling liquid 10 and can be excreted in the air space 37.
  • the one in the valve cover 19 opens Pressure relief valve so that gas or liquid can flow out via the overflow line 20 and the pressure is reduced again as a result. It is possible to combine the above-mentioned pressure relief valve with a vacuum valve, so that air is admitted into the expansion chamber 11 in the case of a negative pressure which arises in the expansion chamber 11 and which can arise, for example, when the cooling liquid cools, and thus pressure equalization takes place.
  • the coolant level in the replenishing chamber 10 drops due to a loss of coolant, the coolant level is sufficiently high as long as the depression 27 is filled with coolant. Only when the recess 27 no longer contains any coolant, that is to say there is no coolant in the entire expansion tank, is there a risk of bubbles forming in the coolant and thus a reduction in the cooling capacity.
