Abstract

In internal-combustion engines with a low sound level, having a rigid conductor frame produced as a casting, the conductor frame (1) is screwed into the oil sump (2) from the flange side. Die-casting technology can consequently be used both on the oil sump and on the conductor frame. Furthermore, the additional parting plane (1') in the oil sump ensures an increase in the overall oil-sump damping. <IMAGE>

Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine geräuscharme Brennkraftmaschine mit einem steifen als Gutteil hergestellten Leiterrahmen.The invention relates to a low-noise internal combustion engine with a rigid lead frame manufactured as a good part.

Es ist bekannt, die Unterteile von Kurbelgehäusen von Brennkraftmaschinen zur Verminderung der Schallabstrahlung mit einer leiterrahmenähnlichen Konstruktion zu versteifen. Diese sogenannten Leiterrahmen können als Platten oder Gutkonstruktionen ausgeführt sein.It is known to stiffen the lower parts of crankcases of internal combustion engines to reduce the sound radiation with a lead frame-like construction. These so-called lead frames can be designed as plates or good constructions.

Aus der GB-PS 2 164 389 ist ein steifer Leiterrahmen für eine Brennkraftmaschine bekannt, welcher entweder von unten an das Kurbelgehäuse geschraubt ist oder in der Ölwanne als integrierter Teil eingegossen ist.From GB-PS 2 164 389 a rigid lead frame for an internal combustion engine is known, which is either screwed to the crankcase from below or is cast in the oil pan as an integrated part.

Nachteilig beim Anschrauben an das Kurbelgehäuse sind der Platzbedarf und die zusätzliche Bearbeitung der Gewindebohrungen am Kurbelgehäuse-Unter-Flansch.A disadvantage when screwing onto the crankcase is the space requirement and the additional machining of the threaded holes on the crankcase lower flange.

Der Nachteil bei einem in die Ölwanne integrierten Leiterrahmen ist der komplizierte Kern, der bei einer Druckgußfertigung nicht angewendet werden kann, die aber für hohe Stückzahlen eine Voraussetzung darstellt. Solche Ölwannen sind an sich sehr steif, haben aber eine geringe innere Materialdämpfung.The disadvantage of a ladder frame integrated in the oil pan is the complicated core, which cannot be used in a die-cast production, but which is a requirement for large quantities. Such oil pans are very stiff in themselves, but have a low internal material damping.

Nach der Erfindung sind diese Nachteile dadurch vermieden, daß der Leiterrahmen in die Ölwanne von der Flanschseite her eingesetzt und eingeschraubt ist. Damit ist eine Druckgußtechnologie sowohl auf die Ölwanne als auch auf den Leiterrahmen anwendbar. Weiters erreicht man durch die zusätzliche Trennfuge in der Ölwanne eine Erhöhung der gesamten Ölwannendämpfung.According to the invention, these disadvantages are avoided in that the lead frame is inserted and screwed into the oil pan from the flange side. This means that die casting technology can be applied to both the oil pan and the lead frame. Furthermore, the additional joint in the oil pan increases the overall oil pan damping.

Die Erfindung wird anhand eines Beispieles näher beschrieben. Es zeigen Fig. 1 eine erfindungsgemäße Ausführung von Ölwanne und Leiterrahmen in Draufsicht, Fig. 2 einen Schnitt nach der Linie II-II in Fig. 1, Fig. 3 einen Schnitt nach der Linie III-III in Fig. 1, Fig. 4 einen Schnitt nach der Linie IV-IV in Fig. 1 und Fig. 5 einen Schnitt nach der Linie V-V in Fig. 1.The invention is described in more detail using an example. 1 shows an embodiment of the oil pan and lead frame according to the invention in plan view, FIG. 2 shows a section along the line II-II in FIG. 1, FIG. 3 shows a section along the line III-III in FIG. 1, FIG. 4 a section along the line IV-IV 1 and 5 a section along the line VV in FIG. 1st

Der Leiterrahmen 1 ist mit Schrauben 4 in die Ölwanne 2 eingeschraubt. Die Trennfuge zwischen Leiterrahmen 1 und Ölwanne 2 ist mit 1′ bezeichnet. Die Ölwanne 2 ist ihrerseits mit Schrauben 2′ am Unterflansch des Kurbelgehäuses 3 befestigt. In weiterer vorteilhafter Ausführung kann die Ölansaugleitung in den Leiterrahmen 1 integriert werden, indem ein horizontaler Ziehteil 5 und ein vertikaler Ziehteil 6 die Ölansaugleitung bilden, die dann mit einem Rohr 7 mit dem Ölpumpenflansch 8 verbunden sind. "Schwallbleche" 9 sowie ein Ölhobel 10 können mit ausgebildet sein.The lead frame 1 is screwed into the oil pan 2 with screws 4. The parting line between lead frame 1 and oil pan 2 is denoted by 1 '. The oil pan 2 is in turn fastened with screws 2 'to the lower flange of the crankcase 3. In a further advantageous embodiment, the oil suction line can be integrated into the lead frame 1 by a horizontal pulling part 5 and a vertical pulling part 6 forming the oil suction line, which are then connected to the oil pump flange 8 by a tube 7. "Baffle plates" 9 and an oil plane 10 can also be formed.

Vorteilhaft wird in weiterer Ausgestaltung der Erfindung sowohl die Ölwanne als auch der Leiterrahmen als druckgutfähige Konstruktion ausgeführt.In a further embodiment of the invention, both the oil pan and the lead frame are advantageously embodied as a printable construction.
