Definitions
- the invention relates to an engine brake according to the preamble of claim 1.
- a device for controlling exhaust valves of an internal combustion engine in which the exhaust valves are kept hydraulically operable in the area of the ignition TDC a small gap during engine braking operation.
- the hydraulic actuation consists of a master cylinder with master piston and an actuating cylinder with an actuating piston, which acts on the exhaust valve.
- the master piston is actuated by a rocker arm, which simultaneously serves to actuate a pump piston of an injection device for fuel.
- the rocker arm is driven by a relatively long push rod, the movement of the push rod communicating to the rocker arm, which first drives the master piston for the valve control in the continuation of the direction of movement of the push rod and which actuates the injection device on the other side.
- Such a device for controlling the exhaust valves in engine braking operation requires an additional assembly consisting of master cylinder and master piston, which leads to higher manufacturing costs and additionally increases the maintenance effort.
- the relatively slim pushrod does not allow the transmission of large forces, which are necessary for the high injection pressure in diesel engines.
- Such a device is only suitable for low-pressure injection devices on Otto engines.
- exhaust brake is known as an engine brake system.
- a shut-off device in the exhaust By closing a shut-off device in the exhaust, the push-out work of the piston is increased in that a counter pressure is built up in the exhaust pipes, against which the piston must push out.
- the object of the invention is therefore to develop a motor brake according to the preamble of claim 1 so that it is much simpler and thus cheaper, d. H. that can be done without major design changes if possible. In addition, it should be easy to combine with the usual exhaust brake.
- the injection pump as a master cylinder, there is a very simple hydraulic device in which the number of additional control devices or actuators is small.
- actuators for example the actuating piston, can also be made smaller because of the high pressure.
- Figure 1 shows schematically the engine brake system (the decompression brake) of the invention.
- the exhaust valves 14 of a direct injection diesel engine with engine cylinder 13, engine piston 15 and piston combustion chamber 16
- the top dead center in the area of the ignition TDC
- the energy absorbed by the engine during the compression stroke is not during of the expansion stroke is returned to the engine.
- the opening of the exhaust valve 14 takes place via a hydraulic device, which consists of an actuating cylinder controlling the exhaust valve 7 with actuating piston 4 (acts on the thumb of the rocker arm), a control line 3a and a master cylinder with master piston 1.
- a hydraulic device which consists of an actuating cylinder controlling the exhaust valve 7 with actuating piston 4 (acts on the thumb of the rocker arm), a control line 3a and a master cylinder with master piston 1.
- the hydraulic actuation of the actuating pistons 4 is caused by the injection pump elements as master pistons 1. Diesel fuel is used as the hydraulic fluid.
- the use of the engine's own injection pump itself as a controlled master cylinder 1 (master cylinder) is so advantageous because the start of delivery of the same before the end of the compression stroke at 15 to 30 ° KW before TDC, where the opening of the exhaust valve 14 is desired.
- the delivery pressure achievable by the injection pump 1 is high, it reaches up to 1000 bar, and can therefore exert a sufficient opening force on the outlet valve 14. Because of the high pressure level in the actuating cylinder, the actuating piston 4 has a small (approx. 10 mm) diameter. The delivery volume (stroke volume) per working cycle of the injection pump 1 is sufficient to give the actuating piston 4 a maximum stroke of approximately 2.5 mm.
- a switch 6 is arranged in the one present between injection pump 1 and injection nozzle 5 Injection line 3. This allows the fuel to flow unhindered to the injector 5 in the engine mode and to the actuating cylinder 4 in the braking mode.
- a switch 6 is installed in the injection line 3, from which the control line 3a branches off.
- a check valve 7 is provided in this control line 3a after the switch 6. This prevents the backflow of the fuel and thus no disturbance in the injection line 3.
- the outlet valve 14 remains open by the actuating piston 4 of the hydraulic system. Under certain circumstances, the injection pump's own check valve may also be sufficient.
- a valve 10 is present in a branch line 8 to the control line 3a. This is acted upon by the pressure of the motor cylinder 13 via a pressure line 9.
- the engine cylinder pressure can be influenced by an additional exhaust brake system (exhaust flap), which improves the braking performance.
- the valve 10 controlled by the pressure of the engine cylinder 13 causes the exhaust valve 7 to close when the pressure in the engine cylinder 13 drops below a certain level.
- the backflow of fuel from the working cylinder 4 (via a drain line 11) is prevented by the valve 10 for as long.
- the closing of the exhaust valve 7 is initiated when the desired minimum exhaust cylinder pressure is undershot (in the exemplary embodiment at approximately 5.7 bar).
- the drain line 11 (leak line) of the valve 10 is connected to the leak line 5 a of the injection nozzle 5.
- the leak lines 5a, 11 lead to a hydraulic fluid reservoir 12. From this, the injection pump 1 is also fed via a line 17.
- FIG. 2 shows the working diagram (pV diagram) of a combined compression and extension brake cycle.
- the cylinder pressure is plotted on the ordinate and the stroke volume on the abscissa.
- V H means stroke volume and V K compression volume).
- the inlet valve E s closes and the compression takes place until the outlet valve 14 opens through the actuating piston 4 of the hydraulic system, as a rule before or possibly after the TDC (the latter with a small accelerator pedal pressure, ie not full delivery of the fuel quantity) (c , A ö1 ).
- the outlet opening pressure depends, among other things, on the compression ratio of the engine, on the start of delivery of the injection pump and on the possible boost pressure. Without considering a possible boost pressure, this pressure is set at approximately 30 bar in the exemplary embodiment when the fuel quantity is full.
- this point is approx. 15 to 30 ° KW before TDC.
- the pressure in the engine cylinder drops to the pressure determined by the valve 10 (e, A s1 ).
- the opening pressure of the valve 10 is suitably chosen so that it is slightly above the pressure in the exhaust pipe.
- the pressure here is between 3 and 4.5 bar due to the closed extension brake flap.
- the expansion begins at point e and continues until the exhaust valve is opened again by the normal charge exchange control (f).
- the final expansion pressure runs below atmospheric pressure.
- the charge change f - g - h - a - b is known to be characterized by a high back pressure.
- the high-pressure and low-pressure work surfaces formed by the changes in condition are negative, that is, they destroy work.
- the size of the negative high pressure working loop depends on the pressure built up behind the working cylinder (actuating cylinder 4). If the pressure is less than to open the outlet valve 14 immediately after the start of delivery, that is, for opening before TDC is necessary, the outlet valve 14 is opened after TDC during expansion with a decreasing pressure in the engine cylinder. This shortens the negative high pressure loop. It even becomes zero if the funding is canceled. It follows that with "accelerate" this work surface can theoretically be controlled according to the driving or braking conditions.
