Abstract
Description
La présente invention concerne un procédé de montage d'une pluralité de bobines d'allumage sur un bloc moteur.The present invention relates to a mounting method a plurality of ignition coils on an engine block.
Il est déjà connu, dans le but de réduire la longueur des câbles haute-tension entre une bobine d'allumage unique et les différentes bougies d'un moteur à combustion interne, de disposer une bobine individuelle à proximité immédiate de chacune des bougies.It is already known, in order to reduce the length high-voltage cables between an ignition coil unique and the different spark plugs of a internal combustion, to have an individual coil in the immediate vicinity of each of the candles.
Cet agencement présente toutefois l'inconvénient de multiplier le nombre de composants et par conséquent la complexité des opérations de montage.However, this arrangement has the disadvantage of multiply the number of components and therefore the complexity of assembly operations.
Il est également connu de n'utiliser qu'une seule bobine pour deux bougies, cette bobine ayant chaque extrémité de son enroulement secondaire connecté à l'une des deux bougies, l'allumage ne se produisant que sur la bougie souhaitée pour des raisons de conductivité électrique des gaz dans les cylindres respectifs.It is also known to use only one coil for two candles, this coil having each end of its secondary winding connected to one of the two spark plugs, ignition occurring only on the spark plug desired for reasons of electrical conductivity gases in the respective cylinders.
Si cet agencement permet effectivement de réduire le nombre de bobines, il n'en simplifie pas pour autant les opérations de montage puisqu'il nécessite des câblages haute tension plus complexes.If this arrangement effectively reduces the number of coils, it does not simplify them mounting operations since it requires wiring more complex high voltage.
On connaít également, par le document WO-A-8500930, un ensemble d'alimentation électrique des bougies d'un bloc moteur qui peut être installé en une seule opération sur le bloc moteur. Cet ensemble comprend :
- un boítier (1) formant une pluralité de logements (4) et réalisé dans une matière électriquement isolante et
- une pluralité de bobines (12) disposées dans lesdits logements et comprenant chacune un enroulement primaire et un enroulement secondaire.
- a housing (1) forming a plurality of housings (4) and made of an electrically insulating material and
- a plurality of coils (12) disposed in said housings and each comprising a primary winding and a secondary winding.
Toutefois, dans cet ensemble, chaque bobine est tout d'abord logée dans un boítier individuel, puis les différents boítiers individuels sont assemblés dans un boítier d'ensemble et connectés par des connexions montées dans le couvercle du boítier. La réalisation d'un tel ensemble nécessite donc de multiples opérations.However, in this set, each coil is all first housed in an individual box, then different individual boxes are assembled in one overall housing and connected by connections mounted in the housing cover. The realization of such a set therefore requires multiple operations.
La présente invention vise à pallier cet inconvénient.The present invention aims to overcome this drawback.
A cet effet, la présente invention a tout d'abord pour objet un procédé selon la revendication 1.To this end, the present invention has first of all for A method according to claim 1.
Plus particulièrement, le procédé selon l'invention peut comprendre les étapes consistant à :
- monter dans ledit boítier, préalablement à la mise en place de la résine, un connecteur d'alimentation des enroulements primaires desdites bobines et des broches de connection aux bougies dudit bloc moteur; et
- câbler les liaisons basse-tension entre ledit connecteur et les enroulements primaires des bobines, d'une part, et les liaisons haute-tension entre les enroulements secondaires des bobines et lesdites broches de connection, d'autre part.
- mounting in said housing, prior to the installation of the resin, a power connector for the primary windings of said coils and pins for connection to the spark plugs of said engine block; and
- wire the low-voltage connections between said connector and the primary windings of the coils, on the one hand, and the high-voltage connections between the secondary windings of the coils and said connection pins, on the other hand.
Grâce au procédé selon l'invention, il est par conséquent possible de réaliser plus simplement que dans l'art antérieur un ensemble monobloc comprenant les bobines et leurs câblages, qui sont ici maintenus dans le boítier par la résine isolante, ce boítier étant ensuite monté en une seule opération sur le bloc moteur. Thanks to the process according to the invention, it is therefore possible to achieve more simply than in prior art a one-piece assembly comprising the coils and their wiring, which are here kept in the housing by the insulating resin, this housing being then mounted in a single operation on the engine block.
Le procédé selon l'invention présente par conséquent les avantages des agencements à bobines multiples tout en conservant une très grande simplicité de montage.The method according to the invention therefore presents the advantages of multiple coil arrangements while retaining a very simple assembly.
On décrira maintenant, à titre d'exemple non limitatif, un mode de réalisation particulier de l'invention en référence aux dessins schématiques annexés dans lesquels :

- la fig. 4 est une vue de dessus de l'ensemble selon l'invention avant mise en place de la résine; et
- la fig. 5 est une vue en coupe selon la ligne V-V après mise en place de la résine.
