Definitions
- the invention relates to a device for converting internal combustion engines, using liquid fuels, into boosted gas engines.
- fuel supply devices are known for engine cylinders: carburetors, generally with float and injectors with sequential projection.
- carburetors generally with float and injectors with sequential projection.
- the main disadvantages resulting from the projection into the cylinders, of liquid fuel sprayed in more or less fine droplets cooperating with a volume of air, are essentially an incomplete internal combustion of the air / fuel mixture in the cylinders, this leads to fouling of the cylinders more or less rapid, poor performance and increased pollution of the atmosphere by the unburnt parts of the air-fuel mixture.
- the fouling of the cylinders quickly destroys the lubrication characteristics of the engine oil due to the particles and soot produced by the unburnt.
- the device according to the invention achieves these objectives by proposing an original and simple means of gasification, at the molecular level, of the air / fuel mixture in a pre ⁇ mixing chamber and in a gasification chamber adapted to the admission of each cylinder of the internal combustion engines. It is intended to replace the carburetors or injectors of petrol engines of all types and in particular to suppress the pressure supply of the diesel power engines which are the most polluting, and among these, those which equip vehicles of the heavy goods vehicles category, public works vehicles, marine engines etc.
- the proposed gasification means transforms traditional internal combustion engines with liquid fuel into gas engines.
- the self-ignition pressure in diesel engines is reduced so as to eliminate the self-ignition effect which requires a high pressure fuel supply.
- the ignition is obtained by a high voltage electronic ignition center and the engine is suppressed by means of a compressor which allows to recover its full power by making it run faster when necessary. At low speed it operates at reduced power which further reduces its fuel consumption.
- the device according to the invention comprises:
- the installation of the new gasification equipment on diesel engines requires removing the air manifold, removing the injectors and the current pressure supply system (high pressure pump and hydraulic part) to install a spark plug. ignition at the location of the current injector of each cylinder, to install a spacer gasket to increase the volume of the explosion chambers, to mount a gasification block on an adapter base by type of engine, d '' install a compressor, an electronic central ignition of at least 40,000 volts and a central coordination of the physical, fluid and mechanical parameters of engine operation with the new equipment.
- - Fig.1 a section in elevation of the entire device according to the invention; - fig.2 and 3, the jet breaker placed in the pre-mixing chamber;
- a gasification block 1 comprising a gasification chamber 2, fixed directly or via an adapter base, by a set of screws to the right of the orifice 3 for admitting the gas into each engine cylinder with which it is in communication.
- Chamber 2 is closed by a body 3 fitted at its longitudinal central axis XX ", with a sliding needle injection device 4, acting as a tap in an open position and a closed position. It is controlled for example by an electromagnetic coil 5 attracting its core 6 kept in the normally closed position by means of a compression spring 7.
- the fuel is injected under a pressure of about 5 to 7 bars on a jet breaker 8 whose function is to reduce the pressure in a micro-chamber 10 for pre-mixing by creating an air-fuel pre-mixture which is then projected against the blades of a multi-blade propeller 11, freely rotating in a bearing 12 concentrically with the axis XX 1 of the gasification block
- This propeller generates the overpressure and the homogenization by mixing, of the air-fuel pre-mixture already produced at the level of the jet breaker 8.
- the bearing 12 of the propeller is for example housed in a bearing holder 13 comprising arms 14 for fixing screws by means of the body 1 of the chamber 2.
- the propeller 11 rotates freely on its bearing.
- the liquid fuel is brought by a pipe 16 and a connector 17, to an annular chamber 18 around the needle 4 having fuel passage grooves; the parts delimiting these grooves also serving as a guide in the bore of the needle support.
- the primary compressed air, generated by an auxiliary compressor, is supplied by a pipe 20 and a connector 21, to an annular chamber 22 opening into the premix chamber 10.
- the fuel and the premixed air are directed, through a conical orifice 23, towards the blades of the propeller 11; simultaneously, additional secondary air, coming from a lateral orifice 24, also flows towards the blades of the propeller 11.
- the optimization of the volumes of primary air and secondary air is adjusted according to the flow rate of the fuel supplied by a controlled flow pump cooperating with a variable opening solenoid valve.
- the air-fuel premix. In micro-droplets, injected on the propeller 1 1 is fractionated, in cooperation with the temperature of the gasification chamber 2, on an almost molecular scale, transforming it into a pressurized gas before its passage in each engine cylinder.
- the complete cycle takes place according to the following phases: 1) supply of pressurized liquid fuel from 5 to 7 bars in the annular chamber 18 of the needle 4;
- the speed of rotation of the propeller 1 1 is mainly a function of the vacuum, it is driven at a speed of rotation of the order of 3,000 to 20,000 revolutions / minute, a speed sufficient to ensure molecular fractionation of the premix. This result is obtained with great economy of means.
- An open or closed needle 4 has been used to regulate a continuous flow rather than a pulse flow as is the case in most conventional motors. It is the speed variation of the fuel pump associated with a variable opening solenoid valve that provides the flow required for engine speed. This variation could also be obtained by any other known means.
- the rotation of the propeller is assisted by an unrepresented electric motor and at higher speeds, by pressurized air projected at 26, tangentially on the blades of the propeller 11.
- the quantities of fuel, primary air and secondary air are metered by an electronic central control and coordination of physical, fluid and mechanical parameters, in particular the speed of rotation of the heat engine, temperature and pressure.
- the mass ratio of the air-fuel mixture results from these various parameters.
- the high pressure pump and its hydraulic equipment as well as the injectors are removed, a thick spacer gasket is introduced to increase the volume of the explosion and reduce the compression ratio below the self-ignition threshold, a spark plug is fitted in place of the injector of each cylinder and cooperates with a high-voltage electronic ignition center, at least 40,000 volts to generate the ignition spark of the gas mixture; the gasification blocks are mounted on a base adapted to the type of engine and fixed to the holes of the air collector also removed;
- the high pressure injection pump is replaced by a variable pressure low pressure pump, from around 5 to 7 bars.
- FIGs. 2 and 3 show in elevation and in end view, an example of a jet breaker 8 placed in the pre-mixing chamber 10.
- This jet breaker is in the form of a threaded and shouldered cross piece, screwed in stop concentrically with the axis XX 'and having its small face in line with the outlet of the injector 15.
- Figs. 4 and 5 show a front view and a sectional elevation view of an example of an overpressure propeller 11 with 6 blades 27, the hub of which is integral with the shaft 28 on which it is wedged in carrier overhang, freely rotating in its bearing.
- Fig. 6 schematically shows an overview of the gasification blocks 30,
- the gasification chambers 2 are under permanent overpressure at a pressure of the order of several bars, by their propeller 11, by the admission of additional air coming from a possible turbocharger and mainly from an auxiliary booster pump, not shown.
- the adjustment of the flow rate of the pressurized fuel, admitted into the premix chambers 10, is obtained, in normal rotation of the internal combustion engine, by known electronic means for varying the rotation speed of a pump 35, delivering the fuel at a pressure of 5 to 7 bars in a common piping 36 distributing it to each of the four gasification blocks by the pipes 37, 38, 39, 40.
- This variation in the fuel flow of the pump cooperates with a variable opening solenoid valve to refine the adjustment of this flow.
- the primary air is generated by the service compressor, not shown, with which heavy vehicles are generally fitted, or by an auxiliary compressor.
- an electrical means is added, for example a heating resistor, to heat the fuel oil before it is injected into the pre-mixing chamber.
- the primary air coming from the compressor is also hot and facilitates gasification at the level of said chamber 10.
