Description

Die Erfindung geht aus von einem Zylinderkopf für eine Brennkraftmaschine nach der Gattung des Hauptanspruches.The invention relates to a cylinder head for an internal combustion engine the genus of the main claim.

Ein derartiger Zylinderkopf ist beispielsweise aus der DE 34 36 426 C2 bekannt. Die Versorgung der Lagerstellen der Nockenwelle und der Lagerung der Schlepphebel erfolgt über Hauptölkanäle, die parallel zu den Nockenwellen verlaufen. Jede der beiden Nockenwellen sowie die zugeordneten Schlepphebel werden von einem Hauptölkanal versorgt. Die beiden Hauptölkanäle verlaufen im mittleren Bereich des Zylinderkopfes. Dieser Zylinderkopf hat einen mittleren, gegossenen Block, der unter anderem Aufnahmeöffnungen für die Zündkerzen aufweist. In diesem längsverlaufenden Block sind die Hauptölkanäle als durchgehende Bohrungen ausgeführt. Die Ölführung in einem derartigen mittleren Block des Zylinderkopfes führt zu sehr beengten Einbauverhältnissen, die unter anderem eine Verschiebung der Zylinderkopfverschraubung nach außen erfordern, so daß eine gute Zugänglichkeit der Zylinderkopfverschraubung aufgrund der Überdeckung durch die Nockenwellen nicht gegeben ist. Darüber hinaus ist ein derartiger Zylinderkopf aufgrund der aufwendigen Ausbildung des mittleren Blockes relativ schwer. Weiterhin führt die Ausbildung eines nachträglich zu durchbohrenden mittleren Blockes aufgrund der einzuhaltenden Mindestwandstärken unter Umständen zu Problemen beim Ausformen des Rohlings.Such a cylinder head is known for example from DE 34 36 426 C2. The supply of the bearings of the camshaft and the storage of the Rocker arm is via main oil passages that are parallel to the camshafts run. Each of the two camshafts and the associated rocker arms are supplied by a main oil channel. The two main oil channels run in the middle area of the cylinder head. This cylinder head has a middle one cast block, which among other things receiving openings for the spark plugs having. The main oil channels are in this longitudinal block through holes. The oil flow in such a middle block of the cylinder head leads to very cramped installation conditions, which includes a shift in the cylinder head screw connection require outside, so that the cylinder head screw connection is easily accessible due to the camshaft overlap. About that Furthermore, such a cylinder head is due to the complex design of the middle block relatively difficult. Furthermore, the training leads one middle block to be subsequently drilled due to the need to be observed Minimum wall thicknesses may cause problems when molding the Blanks.

Demgegenüber ist es Aufgabe der Erfindung, einen Zylinderkopf für eine Brennkraftmaschine nach der Gattung des Hauptanspruches so weiterzubilden, daß dieser einfach aufgebaut, einfach zu fertigen und einfach zu bearbeiten ist. Darüber hinaus soll der innere Bereich des Zylinderkopfes weitgehend frei von Einbauten sein. In contrast, it is an object of the invention to provide a cylinder head for a To further develop an internal combustion engine according to the type of the main claim, that it is simple, easy to manufacture and easy to edit. In addition, the inner area of the cylinder head should be largely free of Be internals.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß mit den kennzeichnenden Merkmalen des Hauptanspruches gelöst. Die Verlegung der Hauptölkanäle zur Versorgung der Lagerstellen der Nockenwelle und der Hebelelemente nach außen in den Bereich der Außenwände macht den Innenraum des Zylinderkopfes zumindest frei von Einbauten für die Ölführung. Dadurch wird der Zylinderkopf insgesamt leichter und gußtechnisch einfacher zu beherrschen. Dadurch, daß die Verbindung der Hauptölkanäle zu den Ringkanälen der Zylinderkopfverschraubung durch schräg verlaufende Bohrungen erfolgt, die von oben zugänglich bzw. eingebracht sind, ergibt sich ein einfach zu handhabender Fertigungsschritt, bei dem darüber hinaus die Bohrungslänge relativ kurz gehalten wird.This object is achieved with the characterizing features of Main claim solved. The laying of the main oil channels to supply the Bearing points of the camshaft and the lever elements to the outside in the area The outer walls at least clear the interior of the cylinder head Internals for the oil flow. This makes the cylinder head lighter overall and easier to master in terms of casting technology. By connecting the Main oil channels to the ring channels of the cylinder head screw connection through obliquely running holes that are accessible or introduced from above, the result is an easy-to-use manufacturing step in which furthermore, the bore length is kept relatively short.

Durch Nutzung von Rohrleitungen für die Hauptölkanäle kann der Zylinderkopf noch einmal leichter ausgebildet werden, da durch die relativ geringen Wandstärken gegenüber einer Ausbildung als aufgebohrtes Gußteil erheblich Masse eingespart werden kann. Darüber hinaus kann auf das aufwendige Bohren über die gesamte Längserstreckung des Zylinderkopfes (Bohrloch länge) mit den damit verbundenen Schwierigkeiten verzichtet werden.By using pipes for the main oil passages, the cylinder head be lighter again because of the relatively low Wall thicknesses compared to training as a drilled casting Mass can be saved. In addition, the elaborate Drilling over the entire length of the cylinder head (drill hole length) with the difficulties involved.

Werden die Rohrleitungen in Querstegen geführt, die mit einer der Außenwände verbunden sind, brauchen nur die Querstege selbst in Längsrichtung des Zylinderkopfes durchbohrt werden. Die einzubringende Bohrloch länge reduziert sich damit auf ein Minimum.The pipelines are guided in crossbars that are connected to one of the outer walls are connected, only the crossbars themselves in the longitudinal direction of the Cylinder head are pierced. The length of the borehole to be drilled is reduced to a minimum.

Besonders vorteilhaft ist es, wenn die Querstege zur Aufnahme der Rohrleitungen der Hauptölkanäle gleichzeitig den unteren Lagerbereich der Nockenwellenlagerung aufnehmen.It when the crosspieces for receiving the Pipelines of the main oil channels simultaneously the lower storage area of the Take up camshaft bearings.

Durch die Führung der Rohrleitungen in Querstegen können die Rohrleitungen mit geringem Abstand zu den Außenwänden geführt werden und gleichzeitig als Lagerung für die Hebelelemente der Ventilbetätigung dienen. Die Lagerstellen der Hebelelemente (Schlepphebel) werden dabei durch Bohrungen der Rohrleitung direkt versorgt. By routing the pipes in crossbars, the pipes can with a small distance to the outer walls and at the same time as Serve storage for the lever elements of the valve actuation. The bearings the lever elements (rocker arms) are through holes in the Pipeline supplied directly.

Weitere Vorteile und vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den Unteransprüchen und der Beschreibung.Further advantages and advantageous developments of the invention result from the dependent claims and the description.
