Definitions
- the subject invention concerns an arrangement in a multi-cylinder internal combustion engine comprising at least one cam shaft which is driven by a crankshaft via a transmission, said transmission comprising at least one driving toothed pulley positioned at the front end of the crankshaft, one driven toothed pulley for each cam shaft, and at least one toothed belt which is wrapped about the driving and the driven toothed pulleys.
- the main purpose of the invention therefore is to increase the life of the toothed belt/belts, and this purpose is achieved by means of providing at least one driven toothed pulley with an oscillation damper which is connected to the pulley.
- Fig. 1 is a schematical front view of a internal combustion engine equipped with two cam shafts, each one of which is associated with a driven toothed pulley having an oscillating damper integrated therein in accordance with a first integration method
- Fig. 2 shows one of the driven toothed pulleys of Fig. 1 in a view from behind and on an enlarged scale
- Fig. 3 is a sectional view along line III-III of Fig 2 and
- Figs. 4 and 5 show alternative methods of integratin the oscillating damper with its associated driven toothed pulley.
- the internal internal combustion engine 1 illustrate in Fig. 1 in a schematical front view is, in accordance with the embodiment illustrated, an in-line six-cylinder Otto engine but also other engine varieties are possible, as long as they have at least one cam shaft 3 which is driven by a crankshaft 2 via a transmission, the latter comprising at least one driving toothed pulley 4 positioned at the front end of the crankshaft 2, one driven toothed pulley 5 for each cam shaft 3, and at leas one toothed belt 6 wrapped around the driving and driven toothed pulleys 4, 5.
- the two driven toothed pulleys 5 illustrated in Fig. 1 have an identical construction, for which reason only one of them will be decribed in closer detail with reference to Figs. 2-5.
- This driven toothed pulley 5 preferably is made of metal or other rigid material and is formed with a toothe rim 11 the teeth 12 of which are arranged for positive engagement with the teeth 13 of the toothed belt 6.
- the toothed pulley 5 comprises a hub 14 by mean of which the driven toothed wheel is mounted on the associated cam shaft 3, and a web portion 15 extending between the toothed rim 11 and the hub 14.
- the web portion 15 has a considerably reduced thickness dimension compared with the toothed rim 11 and also compared with the hub 14. The web portion 15 thus is positioned adjacent the face of the driven toothed pulley 5 which, when the pulley 5 is mounted on its associated cam shaft 3, is turned towards the front as seen in Fig. 1.
- the inertia body 19 is received in the recess 16 and is integrally connected to the driven toothed pulley 5 by way of a resilient material 20, the latter likewise being part of the oscillation damper 17.
- the resilient material 20 also is annular in shape and consists of an element 21 which preferably is made from rubber or other similar material possessing rigidity qualities making it suitable for its intended function (torsion).
- the resilient element 21 is positioned between the external envelope surface of the annular inertia body 19 and the internal, likewise annular envelope surface of the toothed rim 11.
- the resilient element 21 is positioned between the front face of the inertia body 19 and the internal face of the web portion 15 whereas in accordance with Fig. 5, the resilient element 21 is positioned between the internal envelope surface of the inertia body 19 and the external, annular envelope surface of the hub 14.
- the resilient element 21 interconnects the inertia body 19 and the toothed pulley 5, preferably by means of vulcanizing, provided that the pulley material is of a vulcanizable nature.
- glueing or other bonding methods are conceivable, for instance a press fit engagement.
- the inertia body 19 and/or the resilient element 21 may be divided into segments, the latter preferably being of equal size and being equally spaced circumferentially.
- the viscous damper 17 comprises an oscillating mass in a damping medium, such as oil or a similar viscous substance.
- One advantageous side-effect of the use of the oscillation damper 17 is the improvement of the timing of the cam shaft/shafts 5, i.e. the valves of the interna combustion engine 1 open in a more precise sequence, with resulting higher performance at the above resonance frequency of the system.
