Definitions

  • the invention relates to an intake manifold for an internal combustion engine after Preamble of independent claim 1.
  • an intake manifold for an internal combustion engine known, which is made in one piece Plastic is made.
  • This intake manifold shows that it is possible to both the connecting flange as well as the individual pieces of pipe that are in end in a common tubular approach, in one piece using plastic and manufacture in one operation.
  • the Manufacturing process of such an intake manifold is, however, quite complex, so far so far particularly complicated shapes can be dispensed with had to.
  • EP-PS 251 159 describes the application of a separate pipe, which in the Suction box is set and has openings, which are arranged so that each cylinder with a certain amount of blow-by gases becomes.
  • the invention is based, in simple way and without additional constructive Elements to create an intake manifold which is designed such that additional air the individual intake pipes is fed to the internal combustion engine. This task is based on the generic term of independent claim 1 by its characterizing Features resolved.
  • the main idea of the invention is without machining the cylinder head or the engine block the supply of additional air design that this as close as possible to the valves is introduced into the intake tract. Thereby it is also avoided that condensation water that may have been introduced to icing the intake tract leads.
  • the invention achieves that no elements are required on the intake manifold either are the manufacturing process of such Difficult to unnecessarily complicate or make it more expensive.
  • connection flange of the intake manifold to arrange a longitudinal bore, from the Cross bores in the areas of the individual intake openings branch off.
  • a longitudinal bore is much easier to manufacture than in a cylinder head.
  • a such a longitudinal bore can also be suitable To avoid material accumulation at certain points, what is usually by ribbing or by making cavities. In this respect, such a bore can also be used constructively favorable design of the intake manifold contribute.
  • a longitudinal slot can also be provided.
  • the intake manifold 10 shown in FIG. 1 contains the intake pipes 11-14 and an exclusion flange 19.
  • a longitudinal bore 33 is in the intake manifold shown. This is with a connector 42 provided. From the longitudinal bore 33 go Cross bores 34, 35, 36, 37, each on the inner wall of one of the valve seats 43 to 46 to lead. In an alternative embodiment, the Longitudinal bore 33 replaced by a longitudinal slot 52.
  • valve 47 is shown in the valve seat 43.
  • This valve 47 is in the O-rings 48, 49 in the Valve seat held and has on its circumference Air inlet openings 50.
  • the longitudinal slot As can be seen from the figure is the longitudinal slot by a cover element 51 closed.
  • the slot 52 As can be seen from the figure is the longitudinal slot by a cover element 51 closed.
  • the slot 52 As can be seen from the figure is the longitudinal slot by a cover element 51 closed.
  • the slot 52 is also the possibility of the slot 52 as Form longitudinal bore.
