Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Dichtung für hin- und hergehende Maschinenteile, insbesondere eine Ventilschaftdichtung für Verbrennungskraftmaschinen mit einem von einer metallischen Hülse gehaltenen elastomeren Dichtelement, das eine das Maschinenteil dichtend umfassende Dichtlippe hat, die durch zwei gegeneinander geneigte kegelstumpfförmige Oberflächen gebildet ist.The present invention relates to a seal for reciprocating Machine parts, in particular a valve stem seal for Internal combustion engines with one of a metallic sleeve held elastomeric sealing element, the one sealing the machine part comprehensive sealing lip has, by two mutually inclined frusto-conical surfaces is formed.
Aus der US PS 3 554 180 ist beispielsweise eine Ventilschaftdichtung bekannt, bei der durch das Aufsetzen einer Kappe die Elastomerdichtung zwischen dieser und der Ventilschaftführung komprimiert wird und so ein axialer Druck auf den Dichtring erzielt werden soll, um dadurch die Dichtlippe radial an den Ventilschaft anzupressen. Hierdurch sollen eventuell bestehende Exzentrizitäten des Ventilschafts und der Ventilschaftführung ausgeglichen werden. Diese Konstruktion ist jedoch nicht in der Lage über eine längere Betriebsdauer den asymmetrischen Verschleiß zu kompensieren. For example, a valve stem seal is known from US Pat. No. 3,554,180. in the by placing a cap, the elastomeric seal between this and the valve stem guide is compressed and so an axial pressure is to be achieved on the sealing ring, thereby radially sealing the sealing lip Press valve stem. This should possibly existing Exzentrizitäten the valve stem and the valve stem guide balanced become. However, this construction is not capable of a longer one Operating time to compensate for the asymmetric wear.
Eine andere Möglichkeit Exzentrizitäten aufzuheben ist in der US PS 4 947 811 dargestellt, bei der der Dichtring von einer steifen zylindrischen Hülse gehalten wird, gegenüber dieser Hülse jedoch radial verschiebbar ist. Auch diese Anordnung ist nur bedingt einsetzbar, da die exzentrische Verlagerung des Dichtrings durch eine Ringnut im Dichtring und darin eingesetztem Flansch der Hülse erreicht werden soll, die sich gegeneinander verkanten können. Da an der Dichtlippe in axialer Richtung Kräfte auftreten, ist ein solches Verkanten leicht möglich.Another way of eliminating eccentricities is disclosed in US Pat. No. 4,947,811 represented in which the sealing ring held by a stiff cylindrical sleeve is, however, radially displaceable relative to this sleeve. These too Arrangement is only conditionally applicable, since the eccentric displacement of the Sealing ring by an annular groove in the sealing ring and inserted therein the flange Sleeve is to be achieved, which can tilt against each other. As at The sealing lip in the axial direction forces occur is such tilting easily possible.
Der Erfindung liegt deshalb die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Dichtung zu schaffen, die einfach in ihrem Aufbau und in ihrer Herstellung ist, eine definierte Leckage am hin- und hergehenden Maschinenteil erlaubt und eine zentrische Führung von Dichtlippe und Maschinenteil ergibt. Dabei soll ein Funktionsverlust auch bei längerer Betriebsdauer vermieden werden.The invention is therefore based on the object to provide a seal, which is simple in their construction and their manufacture, a defined leakage allowed on the reciprocating machine part and a centric guide of sealing lip and machine part results. It should also a loss of function be avoided with longer operating time.
Die Lösung der gestellten Aufgabe erfolgt bei einer Dichtung der eingangs genannten Gattung erfindungsgemäß dadurch, daß vorzugsweise die innenliegende Bodenseite der Dichtlippe auf ihrem Umfang verteilt mit mehreren konzentrischen, eine unterbrochene Zentrierlippe bildenden Ringwulstabschnitten versehen ist, deren Innendurchmesser größer als der Innendurchmesser der Dichtlippe ist. Bei einer solchen Dichtung kann der grundsätzliche Aufbau aus Metallhülse und Dichtlippe beibehalten werden. Im elastischen Teil der Dichtung, an der innenliegenden Oberfläche der Dichtlippe wird die unterbrochene Zentrierlippe in Form von mehreren Ringwulstabschnitten angebracht, welche die Dichtlippe in einer konzentrischen Lage zum Ventilschaft hält. Dabei treten die Ringwulstabschnitte dann in Aktion wenn eine Verschiebung der Teile zueinander auftritt.The solution of the task is carried out at a seal of the beginning mentioned genus according to the invention in that preferably the inside bottom side of the sealing lip distributed on its circumference with several concentric, forming a broken Zentrierlippe Is provided annular bead sections whose inner diameter is greater than that Inner diameter of the sealing lip is. In such a seal, the basic structure of metal sleeve and sealing lip are retained. in the elastic part of the seal, on the inner surface of the sealing lip the interrupted centering lip is in the form of several Annular bead sections attached, which the sealing lip in a concentric Position to valve stem stops. The annular bead sections then come into action when a displacement of the parts occurs to each other.
Die Ringwulstabschnitte befinden sich im flexiblen Übergangsbereich des Dichtelements zwischen der oberen Kante der steifen Metallhülse und der Dichtlippe. Die unterbrochene Zentrierlippe bewirkt gegebenenfalls eine Verschiebung der Dichtlippe in eine konzentrische Position zum Ventilschaft.The annular bead sections are located in the flexible transition region of the Sealing element between the upper edge of the rigid metal sleeve and the Sealing lip. The interrupted centering lip causes a possibly Displacement of the sealing lip in a concentric position to the valve stem.
Außerdem ist es günstig für die Funktion der Dichtung, wenn das Elastomer zwischen der Dichtlippe und der Zentrierlippe eine andere Steifigkeit aufweist als das Elastomer zwischen der Zentrierlippe und der oberen Kante der Metallhülse.In addition, it is beneficial for the function of the gasket when the elastomer has a different stiffness between the sealing lip and the centering lip as the elastomer between the centering lip and the upper edge of the Metal sleeve.
Die Anzahl der Ringwulstabschnitte wird auf den Einsatzbereich der Dichtung abgestimmt. Bei einer Ventilschaftdichtung sollte sie mehr als drei betragen. Auch die Umfangslänge aller Ringwulstabschnitte wird auf den Anwendungsbereich abgestimmt. Sie sollte 10 bis 90 % der Gesamtumfangslänge im Bereich der Ringwulstabschnitte betragen. Je größer der Freiraum zwischen den einzelnen Ringwulstabschnitten um so geringer ist die Möglichkeit für die Bildung von eventuellen Öltaschen.The number of annular bead sections is on the application of the seal Voted. For a valve stem seal, it should be more than three. The circumferential length of all annular bead sections is on the Scope coordinated. It should be 10 to 90% of Total circumferential length in the range of the annular bead sections amount. The bigger the free space between the individual annular bead sections is lower the possibility of forming any oil pockets.
In der beiliegenden Zeichnung ist ein Ausführungsbeispiel dargestellt. In the accompanying drawings an embodiment is shown.
In der Figur 1 ist im Längsschnitt die linke Hälfte einer Dichtung dargestellt.
Der Ventilschaft 1 erfährt eine hin- und hergehende Bewegung und ist in der
Führung 2 gehalten. Auf die Führung 2 ist die Dichtung 3 aufgesetzt, die aus
der metallischen Hülse 4 und einem damit fest verbundenen Dichtelement 5
besteht. Das Dichtelement 5 hat die Dichtlippe 6, die durch die Ringspannfeder
7 an den Ventilschaft 1 angedrückt wird. Zur Befestigung auf der Führung 2
greift das Dichtelement 5 mit an sich bekannten Auswölbungen 8 um die
Führung 2.In the figure 1, the left half of a seal is shown in longitudinal section.
The valve stem 1 undergoes a reciprocating motion and is in the
Die Dichtlippe 6 wird von zwei kegelstumpfförmigen Oberflächen 9 und 10
gebildet bzw. begrenzt. Die innenliegende Oberfläche 10 ist die Bodenseite der
Dichtlippe 6. Sie hat auf ihrem Umfang gleichmäßig verteilt mehrere
konzentrische Ringwulstabschnitte 11, deren Innendurchmesser D größer ist
als der Innendurchmesser d der Dichtlippe 6. Die Ringwulstabschnitte 11 bilden
eine unterbrochene Zentrierlippe 20. Im vorliegenden Beispiel sind vier
Ringwulstabschnitte 11 vorgesehen, die etwa 80 % der Gesamtumfangslänge
im Bereich der Ringwulstabschnitte 11 einnehmen. Die Freibereiche zwischen
den Ringwulstabschnitten 11, d.h. die Bereiche in denen die Oberfläche 10
konzentrisch weitergeführt ist, betragen somit insgesamt
20 %.The sealing
Die Ringwulstabschnitte 11 sind im flexiblen Übergangsbereich 13 des
Dichtelements 5 zwischen der oberen Kante 14 der steifen Metallhülse 4 und
der Dichtlippe 6 angeordnet.The
Darüberhinaus ist das Elastomer 15 zwischen der Dichtlippe 6 und der
Zentrierlippe 20 mit einer anderen Steifigkeit ausgestattet als das Elastomer 16
zwischen der Zentrierlippe 20 und der oberen Kante 14 der Metallhülse 4.
Dieses wird insbesondere durch konstruktive Ausgestaltungen erreicht.Moreover, the
Es wird noch angemerkt, daß die Ringwulstabschnitte 11 ohne Einfluß auf die
gewollte Leckage sind. Versuche haben ergeben, daß die Positionierung der
Zentrierlippe 20 unterhalb der Dichtlippe 6, d.h. auf ihrer Bodenseite 10 zu
besten Ergebnissen führt. Eine Anordnung der Zentrierlippe oberhalb der
Dichtlippe 6 ist jedoch auch möglich.It should be noted that the
