Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Schneidvorrichtung für Bleche mit mindestens
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Zylinderkopf eines Verbrennungsmotors
nach dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruches 1.The invention relates to a cutting device for sheets with at least
The invention relates to a cylinder head of an internal combustion engine
according to the preamble of
Derartige gattungsgemäße Zylinderköpfe sind im Stand der Technik beispielsweise aus der DE 36 01 274 C2 bekannt, wo ein Zylinderkopf mit mehreren einstückig angeformten Zündkerzenrohren zur Aufnahme von Zündkerzen beschrieben ist.Such generic cylinder heads are in the prior art known for example from DE 36 01 274 C2, where a cylinder head with several integral spark plug tubes for mounting is described by spark plugs.
Der Zylinderkopf von Verbrennungsmotoren dichtet den Arbeitsraum des Zylinders ab und überträgt einen Teil der bei der Verbrennung entstehenden Wärmeenergie an das im Zylinderkopf zirkulierende Kühlmittel, um damit die Bauteiltemperaturen insgesamt zu begrenzen.The cylinder head of internal combustion engines seals the work area of the cylinder and transfers part of that during combustion generated thermal energy to the circulating in the cylinder head Coolant to limit the overall component temperatures.
Der Zylinderkopf wird durch Vorspann- und Gaskräfte mechanisch beansprucht und durch die Verbrennung thermisch belastet. Die Vorspannkräfte des Zylinderkopfes rühren von der Verschraubung mit dem Zylinderblock her, während die Gaskräfte durch die Verbrennung im Brennraum verursacht werden, die somit auch für die thermische Aufheizung der Bauteile verantwortlich sind.The cylinder head becomes mechanical due to preload and gas forces stressed and thermally stressed by the combustion. The Preloading forces of the cylinder head also come from the screw connection the cylinder block while the gas forces from the combustion caused in the combustion chamber, which is therefore also for the thermal Heating of the components are responsible.
Der Zylinderkopf ist zudem maßgeblich für den Gaswechsel des Verbrennungsvorganges verantwortlich und nimmt die Einlass-und Auslassventile sowie bei Benzinmotoren oder bei gasbetriebenen Dieselmotoren die Zündkerze eines jeden Zylinders auf. The cylinder head is also decisive for the gas exchange of the Combustion process responsible and takes the intake and Exhaust valves as well as in gasoline engines or gas powered Diesel engines open the spark plug of each cylinder.
Hochleistungsmotoren moderner Bauart verfügen heute regelmäßig über mehrere Ein-bzw. Auslassventile. Die Ventile, die jeweils aus einem Ventilkopf und einem Ventilschaft bestehen, liegen dichtend an einem Ventilsitz an, der in den Zylinderkopf eingearbeitet oder eingefügt ist. Dem Ventilkopf nachgeschaltet sind die jeweiligen Einlass- bzw. Auslasskanäle des Motors.High-performance motors of modern design regularly have today over several inputs or Exhaust valves. The valves, each made a valve head and a valve stem are in sealing contact a valve seat, which is incorporated or inserted into the cylinder head is. The respective inlet or Exhaust ducts of the engine.
Um Undichtheiten des Ventilsitzes, die durch einseitige Abnutzung verstärkt beanspruchter Ventilbereiche entstehen, vorzubeugen, werden an Motoren bekannter Bauarten vielfach die Ventile drehbar angeordnet, sodass sie bei jedem Hub eine kleine Drehbewegung ausführen, die meist beim Öffnen des Ventiles erfolgt.To leak the valve seat caused by one-sided wear to prevent valve areas that are subject to increased stress, the valves are often rotatable on motors of known types arranged so that they make a small rotary movement with each stroke, which usually occurs when the valve is opened.
Außerdem kann es aus unterschiedlichen Gründen vorkommen, dass die Ventile nicht hundertprozentig abdichten, weil beispielsweise die Ventilmittenachse infolge vorhandener Fertigungs- oder Montageungenauigkeiten außerhalb der Mittenachse des Ventilsitzringes liegt, also ein Versatz vorhanden oder der Ventilsitz beschädigt ist.There are also various reasons why do not seal the valves one hundred percent because, for example, the Valve center axis due to existing manufacturing or assembly inaccuracies lies outside the center axis of the valve seat ring, So there is an offset or the valve seat is damaged.
Bei größerem Verschleiß oder Schäden wie Narben oder Einschlagstellen ist ein Nachschleifen oder Fräsen der Ventilsitze im Zylinderkopf erforderlich. In Extremfällen müssen das Ventil sowie der Ventilsitzring ausgetauscht werden. Dies ist nicht nur kostenintensiv, sondern auch aufwendig.With greater wear or damage such as scars or impact points is regrinding or milling the valve seats in the cylinder head required. In extreme cases, the valve as well as the valve seat ring be replaced. Not only is this expensive, but also expensive.
Ein weiteres Problem ergibt sich für den ordnungsgemäßen Ventilsitz aus der Tatsache heraus, dass heutige Zylinderköpfe von Verbrennungsmotoren zumeist aus Aluminium hergestellt sind. Dieses neigt verstärkt zu ungleichmäßigen Materialausdehnungen, sodass der Zylinderkopf und mit ihm nicht zuletzt die Ventilsitzringe verzogen werden. Dieses Problem stellt sich insbesondere nach einem Kaltstart des Motors. Dabei werden vor allem die brennraumseitigen Partien des Zylinderkopfes thermisch hoch belastet.Another problem arises for the proper valve seat out of the fact that today's cylinder heads of internal combustion engines are mostly made of aluminum. This tends reinforces to uneven material expansion, so that the Cylinder head and with it, not least, the valve seat rings warped become. This problem arises especially after a cold start of the motor. Especially the parts of the combustion chamber Cylinder head subjected to high thermal loads.
Eine weitere der möglichen Ursachen dieser unerwünschten Verformung der Ventilsitzringe ist in dem im Zylinderkopf vorhandenen Zündkerzenrohr zu sehen. Das Zündkerzenrohr ist eine Aufnahmeöffnung für die Zündkerze des Motors und ist somit an jedem Zylinderkopf notwendig, in dem eine Zündkerze vorhanden ist. Das Zündkerzenrohr kann aus einem vom Zylinderkopf abweichenden Material bestehen, wird jedoch zumeist bei der Herstellung des Zylinderkopfes unmittelbar in Form einer Bohrung oder Ausnehmung in diesen eingearbeitet. Es ermöglicht die Aufnahme der Zündkerzen beziehungsweise deren Zugänglichkeit, weshalb es auch einseitig eine Öffnung aufweisen muss.Another of the possible causes of this undesirable deformation the valve seat ring is in the spark plug tube in the cylinder head to see. The spark plug tube is a receiving opening for the spark plug of the engine and is therefore on every cylinder head necessary in which there is a spark plug. The spark plug tube can consist of a material different from the cylinder head, however, is mostly immediate in the manufacture of the cylinder head worked into this in the form of a hole or recess. It enables the spark plugs or theirs to be accommodated Accessibility, which is why it also has an opening on one side got to.
Die Ventilsitzringe werden durch die konstruktiv eng bemessenen
Abstände der Ventile untereinander zwangsläufig in unmittelbarer Nähe
des Gewindes der Zündkerze angeordnet. Im kalten Zustand des
Zylinderkopfes sind die einzelnen Baugruppen proportional und weisen
keinerlei Verzug auf. Sie sind demnach hundertprozentig maßhaltig.
Bei einer Erwärmung nach dem Anlassen des Verbrennungsmotors
kommt es zu lokal sehr unterschiedlichen Materialausdehnungen des
Zylinderkopfes. Dies führt wiederum dazu, dass sich auch die Ventilsitzringe
ungleichmäßig verformen und bildet mithin die Ursache des
so genannten 
Die Ventile werden undicht, wobei das Problem von Ablagerungen im Bereich der undichten Stellen zu einem beschleunigten Verschleiß der Ventile und auch des Ventilsitzringes führt. Zwar egalisiert sich der genannte Effekt bei gleichmäßiger Erwärmung, also bei längerer Laufzeit des Motors wieder, jedoch können die in der Kaltstartphase auftretenden erhöhten Verschleißerscheinungen im Ventilsitzbereich insgesamt zu einem vorzeitigen Ausfall des Motors führen.The valves are leaking, the problem of deposits in the Area of the leaks to accelerate wear of the Valves and also the valve seat ring leads. It does not matter mentioned effect with uniform heating, i.e. with a longer running time the engine again, however, in the cold start phase increased wear and tear in the valve seat area overall lead to premature engine failure.
Der Erfindung liegt die technische Problemstellung zugrunde, einen Zylinderkopf zu entwickeln, bei dem eine ungleichmäßige Verformung der Ventilsitzringe weitestgehend vermieden wird. Außerdem soll ein Verfahren bereitgestellt werden, dass die Herstellung eines solchen Zylinderkopfes ermöglicht.The invention is based on the technical problem, one Cylinder head to develop an uneven deformation valve seat rings are largely avoided. In addition, a Processes are provided that manufacture such Cylinder head allows.
Zur Lösung der technischen Problemstellung wird vorgeschlagen, an einem Zylinderkopf eines Verbrennungsmotors mit mindestens einem Zündkerzenrohr (1) pro Zylinder, wobei das Zündkerzenrohr einen dem Brennraum des Motors zugewandten Endbereich mit einem Anschlussgewinde (6) zur Verschraubung einer Zündkerze in dem Zylinderkopf (3) und einen sich daran anschließenden zur Motoraußenseite geöffneten Bereich mit erweitertem Durchmesser (d) aufweist, das Zündkerzenrohr derart auszuführen, dass es quer zu seiner Längsrichtung durchtrennt ist.To solve the technical problem it is proposed to a cylinder head of an internal combustion engine with at least one Spark plug tube (1) per cylinder, the spark plug tube one Combustion chamber of the engine facing end area with a Connection thread (6) for screwing a spark plug into the Cylinder head (3) and an adjoining one to the outside of the engine open area with enlarged diameter (d) has to perform the spark plug tube such that it is transverse to its longitudinal direction is severed.
Durch die Durchtrennung quer zur Längsrichtung bleibt die Ausdehnung des Zylinderkopfes ohne Einfluss auf das Zündkerzenrohr, sodass damit auch eine Verformung der Ventilsitze vermieden wird.By cutting transversely to the longitudinal direction, the expansion remains of the cylinder head without influencing the spark plug tube, so that deformation of the valve seats is also avoided.
Mittels dieser vorgestellten Lösung ist es erstmalig möglich, sowohl neue Zylinderköpfe als auch bereits in Betrieb befindliche Motoren mit derartigen Vorrichtungen auszustatten und damit sowohl in der Kaltlaufphase als auch im Warmlauf des Motors einen einwandfreien Betrieb zu gewährleisten. Die Ventilsitze verformen sich nicht mehr, und der Motor verschleißt nunmehr erst in erheblich verlängerten Lebensdauerzyklen. Es wurde hiermit eine sehr kostengünstige Variante der Aufarbeitung alter Motoren und der Verbesserung neuer Motorensysteme ermöglicht.By means of this presented solution it is possible for the first time, both new cylinder heads as well as engines that are already in operation to equip such devices and thus both in the cold running phase as well as when the engine is warming up To ensure operation. The valve seats no longer deform, and the engine now only wears out in considerably extended Life cycles. It became a very economical option refurbishing old engines and improving new engine systems enables.
Weitere Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung sind Gegenstand der Unteransprüche.Further embodiments of the invention are the subject of the dependent claims.
So wird gemäß der vorgestellten Erfindung ferner vorgeschlagen, eine Hülse in das Zündkerzenrohr einzusetzen und diese Hülse mittels einer dauerelastischen Dichtungsmasse in dem Zündkerzenrohr zu befestigen. Die dauerelastische Dichtungsmasse gestattet eine Ausdehnung des Zylinderkopfes und des Zündkerzenrohres in begrenztem Umfang, ohne dass sich die Bauteile gegenseitig beeinflussen. Die dauerelastische Dichtungsmasse, die beispielsweise auf einer thermisch belastbaren Silikonbasis hergestellt werden kann, dient damit einem Ausgleich der unterschiedlichen Verformungen der betreffenden Zylinderkopfbereiche infolge ihrer unterschiedlichen Wärmeausdehnungen. Gleichzeitig dichtet die Hülse in verbindung mit der dauerelastischen Dichtmasse das durchtrennte Zündkerzenrohr gegen Austritte von Kühlflüssigkeit ab, sofern bei der Durchtrennung ein Kühlflüssigkeitsführender Hohlraum des Motorblockes tangiert wird.Thus, according to the presented invention, it is also proposed that Insert sleeve into the spark plug tube and this sleeve by means of a to fix permanently elastic sealant in the spark plug tube. The permanently elastic sealing compound allows expansion the cylinder head and the spark plug tube to a limited extent, without the components influencing each other. The permanently elastic Sealant, for example, on a thermal resilient silicone base can be produced, serves one Compensation for the different deformations of the relevant cylinder head areas due to their different thermal expansions. At the same time, the sleeve seals in connection with the permanently elastic Sealant the severed spark plug tube against leakage of Coolant if there is a coolant in the cut Cavity of the engine block is affected.
Da das Zündkerzenrohr in seinem Querschnitt erweitert werden muss, damit die Hülse darin einsetzbar ist, wird in einer weiteren Ausgestaltung der Erfindung vorgeschlagen, die Hülse mit einer Länge auszustatten, die der Länge des Zündkerzenrohres entspricht, sodass die Durchmesserdifferenz wieder ausgeglichen wird und mithin keine Querschnittsreduzierung in diesem sensiblen Bereich des Zylinderkopfes auftritt, die möglicherweise zu einer Zerstörung des Zylinderkopfes führen könnte.Since the cross section of the spark plug tube has to be expanded, So that the sleeve can be used in a further embodiment proposed the invention to provide the sleeve with a length, which corresponds to the length of the spark plug tube, so that the Diameter difference is compensated again and therefore none Cross-section reduction in this sensitive area of the cylinder head occurs, which may result in destruction of the cylinder head could lead.
Das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren besteht in den nachfolgend aufgeführten Verfahrensschritten. Danach wird zunächst der Innendurchmesser des Zündkerzenrohres durch ein materialabtragendes Verfahren auf einen Durchmesser erweitert, der größer als der Außendurchmesser der Hülse ist. Als materialabtragendes Verfahren können spanende Verfahren eingesetzt werden, wie sie an sich bekannt sind. Anschließend wird das Zündkerzenrohr quer zu seiner Längsrichtung durchtrennt, woran sich der Einsatz der Hülse in das Zündkerzenrohr anschließt, wobei die Hülse mit der dauerelastischen Dichtungsmasse versehen wird. Diese dauerelastische Dichtungsmasse hat ferner den Vorteil, dass die dichtigkeit des Zylinderkopfes nach wie vor gewährleistet bleibt, das heißt, kein Kühlmittel entweichen kann.The method according to the invention consists of the following Procedural steps. Then the inside diameter is first the spark plug tube by a material-removing process expanded to a diameter that is larger than the outer diameter the sleeve is. As a material-removing process cutting processes are used, as they are known per se. Then the spark plug tube is transverse to its longitudinal direction severed what the use of the sleeve in the spark plug tube connects, the sleeve with the permanently elastic sealing compound is provided. This permanently elastic sealant also has the The advantage that the tightness of the cylinder head is still guaranteed remains, that is, no coolant can escape.
Das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren sowie ein Zylinderkopf nach der vorgestellten Lösung lassen sich problemlos in die Herstellungszyklen der Kraftfahrzeuge einfügen, ohne dass größere Änderungen der Produktionsabläufe notwendig sind. Zudem ist die Nachrüstung alter Zylinderköpfe möglich.The inventive method and a cylinder head according to the solution presented can be easily integrated into the manufacturing cycles of motor vehicles without major changes in the Production processes are necessary. Retrofitting is also older Cylinder heads possible.
