Definitions

  • the invention relates to a two-point spray adjuster according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • a spray adjustment is required in slow-running industrial and truck diesel engines essentially to reduce noise during acceleration and to improve exhaust after the cold start, the adjustment when accelerating simultaneously with the adjustment of the injection pump control rod, i. H. very quickly, should be done. Injection systems with electromagnetic control of the injection times are too expensive and not yet ready for series production.
  • EP-A 0 017 413 describes a two-point spray adjuster for variation of the forward stroke in the form of a controllable hydraulic tappet which is intended for use with open pump nozzles.
  • the pump plunger serves to deliver the fuel and at the same time serves as a closing element for the spray holes. For this reason, it is conical on its delivery side, the cone as a sealing cone at the end of the delivery stroke being seated firmly on the appropriately designed sealing surface in the injection valve body.
  • This arrangement requires exact compliance with the plunger stroke, since if the plunger stroke is exceeded the tip of the injection valve is destroyed and when the plunger stroke is undershot, combustion gases can penetrate into the delivery chamber of the pump nozzle and contaminate it. Advancing the injection timing by reducing the advance stroke is therefore only possible with this type of pump nozzle if it is ensured that the contact force of the pump plunger at the end of the delivery stroke does not exceed a permissible value.
  • a safety valve is provided in the hydraulic tappet according to EP-A 0 017 413, which responds after the hydraulic tappet has been adjusted prematurely if the permissible oil pressure is exceeded and thereby avoids overstressing the pump nozzle.
  • the hydraulic tappet is compressed again to its initial length, from which it is pumped up to a greater or lesser extent before each delivery stroke, depending on the control oil pressure.
  • An advantage of this solution is that a pre-stroke and thus a spray adjustment from stroke to stroke is possible, which is a prerequisite for avoiding the acceleration noise, especially when accelerating the diesel engine.
  • a disadvantage of this solution is that the working piston in the hydraulic tappet is moved frequently, which promotes its wear.
  • the invention has for its object to develop a generic, controllable two-point spray adjuster such that the working piston in the hydraulic tappet must be moved as rarely as possible and still a spray adjustment from stroke to stroke remains possible.
  • the working piston of the hydraulic tappet according to the invention is only adjusted when the pressure of the control fluid changes in accordance with the changing engine and operating parameters. As a result, the working piston is subject to practically no wear.
  • the arrangement according to claim 2 allows rapid relief of the hydraulic tappet due to the small required stroke of the control piston to open the check valve. This ensures an injection adjustment effective from injection stroke to injection stroke, which effectively reduces the acceleration noise of the diesel engine.
  • control slide described in claims 3 and 4 is characterized by a simple structure and achieves the desired control functions according to the invention with purely mechanical means.
  • the arrangement according to claim 5 allows a spray adjustment depending on the lubricating oil temperature. As a result, when the engine is warming up, it is one for low Hydrocarbon and carbon dioxide emissions secured the desired early adjustment of the start of production.
  • the arrangement according to claim 8 offers, in particular for internal combustion engines with electronic control and the motor and operating parameter detection required for this, the advantage of controlling the two-point spray adjuster as a function of all these parameters with only little additional effort.
  • the hydraulic tappet 1 shown in FIG. 1 has a tappet bushing 2 in which a working piston 3 is located.
  • the working piston 3 is acted upon by a compression spring 14, which is supported on a check valve carrier 4, which in turn rests in the tappet bushing 2 on a shoulder 2a.
  • the working piston 3 can move back and forth between a snap ring 13 and the check valve carrier 4.
  • Ram sleeve 2, working piston 3 and check valve carrier 4 enclose a pressure chamber 23 which can be filled with oil via a check valve 25.
  • a bore 27 which is controlled by the check valve 25.
  • the check valve 25 consists of the valve cage 18, which is pressed by the compression spring 14 onto the check valve carrier 4, the compression spring 19 and the valve ball 20, which is pressed onto its seat by the compression spring 19.
  • the control piston 6 has a central extension 21, the diameter of which is smaller than the diameter of the bore 27 in the check valve carrier 4 and the length of the closed valve Check valve 25 with little play up to the valve ball 20 extends when the control piston 6 is at the stop 26.
  • Tappet sleeve 2 check valve carrier 4 and control piston 6 delimit an oil chamber 6a, which is supplied with pressure oil from the oil line 16 via the bore 15, the oil groove 17 and the inlet bore 17a.
  • the control piston 6 is acted on its underside by a control spring 7, which is located in the spring chamber 7a, which is provided with a drain hole 22.
  • a tappet roller 8 which is mounted on a bearing pin 9.
  • a bumper 17 is arranged, which transmits the plunger forces to the injection pump, which is provided as a single injection pump for each cylinder.
  • the hydraulic tappet 1 is in the position of the smallest forward stroke of the injection pump, ie. H. shown with early start of funding.
  • the working piston 3 and control piston 6 are in their outer dead position, i.e. Working piston 3 rests on snap ring 13 and control piston 6 on stop 26.
  • FIG. 2 shows a control unit 27a which consists of a control housing 28 and a control slide 29.
  • the control slide 29 can be located in the control housing 28 move back and forth in a hole 28 a, which is provided with control grooves 41 and 42. It consists of an outer slide part 33 with the control bores 34, 35 and the drain bores 36 and the inner slide part 37 with the control bores 38, the control groove 39 and the throttle bore 40.
  • the inner slide part 37 which is pressed by a compression spring 43 against a snap ring 37a is, can move relative to the outer slide part 33.
  • the control slide 29 is actuated by a speed adjusting lever 32, which is connected to an adjusting cam 32a and sits on a common shaft 56 with the latter.
  • control housing 28 there is the pressure line 30, from which the branch 44 and the inflow line 47 branch off.
  • a check valve 45 is arranged in the branch line 44 and opens towards the oil chamber 46.
  • control housing 28 there is also an outflow bore 50 which leads to a thermostat 51 which controls a valve 53.
  • a compression spring 52 which is supported on a cover 54, presses on the valve 53.
  • FIG. 3 shows a simple version of the control unit 27a.
  • the outer slide part 33 is only provided with the control holes 35 and the drain holes 36.
  • the drain holes 36 open directly into the housing space 55, since the thermostat 51 with the valve 53 is missing in this version.
  • the inner slide part 37 is shown in FIG. 3, with one half resting against the snap ring 37a, with the other half at a distance from the snap ring 37a.
  • FIG. 4 shows a further, simplified version of the control unit 27a, in which the outer slide part 33 is provided with the control bores 34, 35 and the drain bore 36.
  • FIG. 4 shows the control slide 29 and the speed adjustment lever 32 with the adjustment cam 32a in two different positions, which correspond to different engine speeds.
  • the two-point spray adjuster works as follows:
  • the control liquid preferably lubricating oil, passes from the control unit 27a via the control line 31, the oil line 16, the bore 15, the oil groove 17 and the bore 17a into the oil space 6a of the hydraulic tappet 1.
  • control piston 6 If the control oil pressure drops in the control oil line 31 and consequently also in the oil space 6a, the control piston 6 is pressed under the action of the control spring 7 against the spacers 5, as a result of which the extension 21 of the control piston 6 pushes open the valve ball 20 of the check valve 25.
  • the working piston 3 is pressed against the force of the compression spring 14 against the stop 24, the oil from the pressure chamber 23 passing through the open check valve 25 into the oil chamber 6a, from where it passes between the spacers 5 and through the bore 17a flows off.
  • the oil pressure is controlled by means of the control unit 27a.
  • the control oil is supplied to the control unit 27 a through the pressure line 30. From there it reaches the control line 31 via the inflow line 47, the throttle 48 and the control groove 41.
  • the control line 31 leads to the oil line 16 and thus to the hydraulic tappet 1.
  • the function of the control spool 29 shown in FIG. 3 will be explained.
  • the position of the control slide 29 is determined by the position of the speed adjustment lever 32 and the adjustment cam 32a connected to it.
  • the location of the interior Slider part 37 also depends on the oil pressure of the oil space 46.
  • the oil chamber 46 which is connected to the pressure line 30 via the check valve 45, the oil pressure of the pressure line 30 prevails when the control slide 29 is at a standstill.
  • the inner slide part 37 is pressed by the compression spring 43 against the snap ring 37a into the position "A" . In position "A", the inner slide part 37 closes off the control bores 35.
  • control slide 29 differs from that according to FIG. 3 by the additional control bores 34 in the outer slide part 33.
  • the control bores 34 are mounted in such a way that they then overlap with the control groove 39 and the control bore 38 of the inner slide part 37 are when the inner slide member 37 abuts the snap ring 37a. Oil is drained from the control line 31 and thus the start of delivery is adjusted to "late” when the control bore 34 overlaps with the control groove 41. This state occurs when the control slide 29 is in position "A" in FIG. H. is in the range of low engine speeds. At higher engine speeds, the spool 29 is moved in the direction "B".
  • control slide 29 complements the thermostat 51 with the valve 53 in the outflow line 50.
  • the valve 53 remains closed and thereby blocks the outflow of the control oil from the control unit 27a.
  • a high control pressure remains in the control oil line 31, which results in the early start of delivery, as is desirable for emission reasons when the engine is cold.
  • the two-point spray adjuster according to the invention thus enables the desired "early” or “late” adjustment of the start of delivery for important operating states of an internal combustion engine, such as warming up, accelerating, low and high speed.
  • the start of delivery is only fixed in two positions by the two-point spray adjuster according to the invention, but these positions are reached quickly and are observed with close tolerances in all cylinders.
