Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung geht gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Patenanspruches 1 von der DE-A 37 43 854 aus.The invention is based on the preamble of claim 1 from DE-A 37 43 854.
Bei diesem bekannten Ventiltrieb sind zwei gleichartige, mit Rückstellfedern ausgerüstete Gaswechselventile über einen gemeinsamen Gabelhebel hubgesteuert, wobei der Gabelhebel zwischen der Steuerwelle und den Gaswechselventilen über ein einziges hydraulisches Ventilspielausgleichselement kippbeweglich abgestützt ist.In this known valve train, two similar gas exchange valves equipped with return springs are stroke-controlled via a common fork lever, the fork lever being supported in a tilting manner between the control shaft and the gas exchange valves via a single hydraulic valve lash compensation element.
Nachteilig bei dieser Anordnung ist, daß bei einer Resonanzschwingung einer der bekanntlich kaum gleich ausführbaren Rückstellfedern das jeweils mitschwingende Ventil für den Gabelhebel gegenüber dem nicht schwingenden Ventil einen nachgiebigen Anschlag bildet und dieses einseitige Absenken des Gabelhebels ein Nachstellen des hydraulischen Ausgleichselementes bewirkt mit der Folge eines nicht mehr schließenden Ventils.The disadvantage of this arrangement is that, in the event of a resonance oscillation of one of the return springs, which is known to be hardly practicable, the respective oscillating valve for the fork lever forms a resilient stop with respect to the non-oscillating valve, and this one-sided lowering of the fork lever causes an adjustment of the hydraulic compensating element, with the consequence of not more closing valve.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen gattungsgemäßen Ventiltrieb mit einem Gabelhebel derart zu verbessern, daß eine in Resonanz schwingende Rückstellfeder keinen Einfluß auf das Schließen des jeweiligen Ventils hat.The invention has for its object to improve a generic valve train with a fork lever such that a resonating return spring has no influence on the closing of the respective valve.
Diese Aufgabe ist mit dem Patentanspruch 1 gelöst. Die Erfindung ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, daß jeweils querab der in Draufsicht des Gabelhebels gesehenen Verbindungslinien von einem nockenseitigen Angriffspunkt zu den Ventilangriffspunkten der Gabelarme kippbewegliche Verbindungsstellen angeordnet sind, die mit maschinenseitig in Richtung der Kippachse beabstandet angeordneten, gesonderten Ventilspielausgleichs-Einrichtungen korrespondieren.This object is achieved with patent claim 1. The invention is characterized in that in each case transversely to the connecting lines seen in plan view of the fork lever from a cam-side point of application to the valve application points of the fork arms, tiltable connecting points are arranged which correspond to separate valve play compensation devices arranged on the machine side at a distance in the direction of the tilting axis.
Der Vorteil der Erfindung ist, daß der Gabelhebel bei einer in Resonanz schwingenden Ventil-Rückstellfeder durch ein vom Gabelarm des nicht schwingenden Ventils querab beabstandetes Ausgleichselement in korrekter Schließposition für beide Ventile gehalten ist und somit ein Nachstellen des am Gabelarm des schwingenden Ventils wirkenden Ausgleichselementes vermieden ist.The advantage of the invention is that the fork lever in a resonating valve return spring is held in the correct closed position for both valves by a compensating element spaced apart from the fork arm of the non-oscillating valve, and thus readjustment of the compensating element acting on the fork arm of the oscillating valve is avoided .
Um einen relativ großen Hebelarm zu erzielen zwischen dem jeweiligen Ausgleichselement und einer Senkrechten zur Steuerwelle durch den nockenseitigen Angriffspunkt des Gabelhebels zu dessen sicheren Haltung in der o.g. Schließposition wird in Ausgestaltung der Erfindung vorgeschlagen, daß die beiden kippbeweglichen Verbindungsstellen querab auswärts der Verbindungslinien am Gabelhebel vorgesehen sind.In order to achieve a relatively large lever arm between the respective compensating element and a perpendicular to the control shaft through the cam-side point of attack of the fork lever for its secure holding in the above. In the embodiment of the invention, the closed position is proposed such that the two tiltable connection points are provided on the fork lever transversely outward of the connection lines.
Weitere vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen beschreiben die übrigen Unteransprüche.Further advantageous refinements describe the remaining subclaims.
Die Erfindung ist anhand eines in der Zeichnung dargestellten, bevorzugten Ausführungsbeispiels beschrieben.The invention is described with reference to a preferred embodiment shown in the drawing.
Die einzige Zeichnung zeigt von einem nicht weiter dargestellten Ventiltrieb 1 für eine Arbeits- oder Kraftmaschine, insbesondere Brennkraftmaschine, im wesentlichen parallel angeordnete, gleichartige und mit Rückstellfedern 2 ausgerüstete Gaswechselventile 3, die gemeinsam über einen Gabelhebel 4 von einem einzigen Nocken einer nicht gezeigten Steuerwelle hubgesteuert sind.The single drawing shows a valve train 1, not shown, for a working machine or an engine, in particular an internal combustion engine, of essentially the same type, and with
Der Gabelhebel 4 umfaßt - in Draufsicht gesehen - im wesentlichen parallel angeordnete Gabelarme 5, die mit einem mittig angeordneten Fortsatz 6 in Verbindung stehen, der der Führung einer mit dem Nocken der nicht gezeigten Steuerwelle zusammenwirkenden Rolle 7 dient. In den Übergangsecken 8 der Gabelarme 5 in den Fortsatz 6 ist jeweils eine Konsole 9 vorgesehen mit einer Kugelpfanne 10 als kippbewegliche Verbindungsstelle mit jeweils einer durch die Pfeile "A" symbolisch veranschaulichten Ventilspielausgleichs-Einrichtung. Jede der identischen, maschinenseitig angeordneten Ventilspielausgleichs-Einrichtungen ist vorzugsweise als hydraulisches Ventilspielausgleichs-Element - HVA - ausgebildet, wobei beide Ausgleichselemente der kippbeweglichen Abstützung des Gabelhebels 4 gegenüber dem Maschinengehäuse dienen.The fork lever 4 comprises - viewed in plan view - substantially parallel fork
Wie aus der einzigen Zeichnung ersichtlich, sind die vorzugsweise als Kugelpfannen 10 gestalteten kippbeweglichen Verbindungsstellen jeweils querab der beiden in Draufsicht des Gabelhebels 4 gesehenen Verbindungslinien 11 von einem nockenseitigen Angriffspunkt 12 der Rolle 7 zu den Ventilangriffspunkten 13 der Gabelarme 5 des Gabelhebels 4 beabstandet angeordnet. Zur Erzielung eines relativ großen Hebelarmes zwischen dem jeweiligen in einer der Kugelpfannen 10 eingreifenden Ausgleichselemente "A" und einer Senkrechten 14 zur Steuerwelle durch den nockenseitigen Angriffspunkt 12 sind die beiden maschinenseitig in Richtung der Kippachse 15 beabstandet angeordneten kippbeweglichen Verbindungsstellen bzw. Kugelpfannen 10 querab auswärts der Verbindungslinien 11 am Gabelhebel 4 ausgebildet.As can be seen from the single drawing, the tiltable connection points, which are preferably designed as ball sockets 10, are each spaced transversely from the two
Mit der erfindungsgemäßen Zuordnung von im gegenseitigen Abstand angeordneten, identischen und der maschinenseitigen kippbeweglichen Abstützung dienenden Ausgleichselementen zu dem Gabelhebel 4 ist sichergestellt, daß dieser bei einem der mit der zugehörigen Rückstellfeder 2 in Resonanz schwingende Ventile 3 durch das am Gabelarm 5 des nicht schwingenden Ventils 3 wirksame Ausgleichselement "A" in einer für beide Ventile 3 gültigen Schließposition in der Gtundkreisphase gehalten ist, so daß beim anderen, dem Gabelarm 5 des schwingenden Ventils 3 zugeordneten Ausgleichselement "A" eine fehlerhafte und für die Ventile 3 schädliche Nachstellung unterbleibt.With the assignment according to the invention of mutually spaced, identical and the machine-side tiltable support serving compensating elements to the fork lever 4 ensures that this with one of the
Vorteilhaft ist damit ein das Ventilschließen verhinderndes Nachstellen eines hydraulischen Ausgleichselementes vermieden, weiter entfällt auch eine Ölverschäumung. Geringe Reibmomente und eine günstige biegesteife Gestaltung des Gabelhebels 4 ermöglichen weiter vorteilhaft relativ schwache Ventil-Rückstellfedern 2. Schließlich kann ein 4-Ventil-Zylinderkopf mit einer einzigen Steuerwelle ausgebildet sein.This advantageously avoids readjustment of a hydraulic compensating element which prevents valve closing, and there is also no oil foaming. Low friction torques and a favorable rigid design of the fork lever 4 further advantageously enable relatively weak
