Description

Stand der TechnikState of the art

Die Erfindung geht aus von einer Radialkolbenpumpe nach der Gattung des Patentanspruchs 1.The invention relates to a radial piston pump according to the Genus of claim 1.

Es ist schon eine solche Radialkolbenpumpe bekannt (DE 23 38 489 B2), bei welcher das Saugventil einen von seinem Schließkörper achsgleich zum Pumpenkolben ausgehenden Schaft hat, auf dem außerhalb des Zylinderraums die Ventilschließfeder sitzt. Diese greift einerseits am Schaft und andererseits mittelbar am Pumpengehäuse an. Beim Öffnen des Saugventils steigt daher mit dem Hub die Schließkraft der Feder an.Such a radial piston pump is already known (DE 23 38 489 B2), in which the suction valve is one of its closing body is aligned axially with the pump piston On the outside of the cylinder space Valve closing spring is seated. This grips the shaft on the one hand and on the other hand indirectly on the pump housing. When opening of the suction valve therefore increases the closing force with the stroke the spring.

Bei derartigen Radialkolbenpumpen mit mehreren Pumpenkolben (Pumpenelementen) werden hohe Anforderungen an die Gleichförderung gestellt: bei niedriger Fördermenge sollen alle Pumpenelemente fördern, und die Fördermenge der einzelnen Pumpenelemente soll in engen Grenzen differieren. Bei niedrigem Druck des der Radialkolbenpumpe zugeführten Kraftstoffs ergeben sich bereits bei geringen Öffnungsdruckunterschieden der Saugventile der Pumpenelemente Schwierigkeiten, diese Anforderungen zu erfüllen. In such radial piston pumps with several pump pistons (Pump elements) place high demands on the Equal funding provided: with a low funding amount convey all pump elements, and the flow rate of the individual pump elements should differ within narrow limits. At low pressure of the radial piston pump Fuel already result at low Differences in opening pressure of the suction valves Pump elements have difficulty meeting these requirements fulfill.

Bei der eingangs genannten Radialkolbenpumpe soll der Öffnungsvorgang des Saugventils dadurch unterstützt werden, daß der im Zylinderraum befindliche Schließkörper des Ventils im oberen Totpunkt des Pumpenkolbens von diesem weitgehend umschlossen ist und demzufolge der Kolben beim Saughub eine Saugwirkung auf den Schließkörper ausübt.In the radial piston pump mentioned at the outset Opening process of the suction valve can be supported that the closing body located in the cylinder chamber Valve at top dead center of the pump piston is largely enclosed and therefore the piston when Suction stroke exerts a suction effect on the closing body.

Vorteile der ErfindungAdvantages of the invention

Die erfindungsgemäße Radialkolbenpumpe mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 1 hat demgegenüber den Vorteil, daß das Öffnen des Saugventils bei niedrigem Druck des zugeführten Kraftstoffs dadurch unterstützt wird, daß sich mit zunehmendem Saughub des Pumpenkolbens die Schließkraft der Ventilschließfeder verringert. Bei einer Mehrkolbenpumpe wird somit ein Öffnen aller Saugventile sicher erreicht und ein relativ hoher Grad an Gleichförderung erzielt. Deshalb ist eine Öffnungsdruckeinstellung der Saugventile entbehrlich oder mit verminderter Genauigkeit zulässig.The radial piston pump according to the invention with the features of Claim 1 has the advantage that the Open the suction valve at low pressure of the supplied Fuel is supported by the fact that increasing suction stroke of the pump piston the closing force of the Valve closing spring reduced. With a multi-piston pump an opening of all suction valves is thus reliably achieved and achieved a relatively high level of equal funding. Therefore is an opening pressure setting of the suction valves dispensable or permissible with reduced accuracy.

Zwar ist aus DE 44 06 803 A1 eine Radialkolbenpumpe mit axial durchströmten Pumpenkolben bekannt, in dem ein Saugventil angeordnet ist, dessen Ventilschließfeder einerseits am Schließkörper des Saugventils und andererseits am Pumpenkolben angreift. Beim Öffnen des Saugventils steigt jedoch mit zunehmendem Hub die Schließkraft der Feder an.A radial piston pump is included in DE 44 06 803 A1 axially flow-through pump piston known in the one Suction valve is arranged, the valve closing spring on the one hand on the closing body of the suction valve and on the other hand attacks the pump piston. When opening the suction valve rises however, the closing force of the spring increases with increasing stroke.

Durch die in den Unteransprüchen aufgeführten Maßnahmen sind vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen und Verbesserungen der im Patentanspruch 1 angegebenen Radialkolbenpumpe gegeben.By the measures listed in the subclaims advantageous developments and improvements in Claim 1 given radial piston pump.

Die im Anspruch 2 angegebene Maßnahme erlaubt es, die Baugröße der Radialkolbenpumpe zu verringern, da die Ventilschließfeder im wesentlichen innerhalb des Bauvolumens des Pumpenkolbens angeordnet ist. Durch diese Anordnung wird zugleich eine Führung der Ventilschließfeder erzielt.The measure specified in claim 2 allows the Reduce the size of the radial piston pump because the Valve closing spring essentially within the construction volume of the pump piston is arranged. This arrangement will also achieved guidance of the valve closing spring.

Mit der Ausgestaltung der Radialkolbenpumpe nach Anspruch 3 ist aufbauend auf die Maßnahme gemäß Anspruch 2 ebenfalls eine ausreichende Führung des Schließkörperschafts unter gleichzeitiger Verringerung des Totvolumens der Pumpe geschaffen.With the design of the radial piston pump according to claim 3 is also based on the measure according to claim 2 adequate guidance of the closing body shaft simultaneous reduction of the dead volume of the pump created.

Die Weiterbildung der Erfindung nach Anspruch 4 zeichnet aus durch unmittelbare Einleitung der Federkraft in die der Ventilsteuerung dienenden Bauteile. Deshalb wirken sich nur die Maßabweichungen weniger Bauteile auf die Einstellung des Saugventils aus.The development of the invention according to claim 4 is distinguished by direct introduction of the spring force into the Valve control components. Therefore only act the dimensional deviations of fewer components on the setting of the Suction valve off.

Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung ist in der Zeichnung vereinfacht dargestellt und in der nachfolgenden Beschreibung näher erläutert. Es zeigen Figur 1 eine Radialkolbenpumpe im Schnitt und Figur 2 als Einzelheit II in Figur 1 ein Saugventil der Pumpe in größerem Maßstab.An embodiment of the invention is in the drawing shown in simplified form and in the following Description explained in more detail. 1 shows a Radial piston pump in section and Figure 2 as detail II in Figure 1, a suction valve of the pump on a larger scale.

Beschreibung des AusführungsbeispielsDescription of the embodiment

Eine in Figur 1 dargestellte, nicht verstellbare Radialkolbenpumpe 10 ist für die Kraftstoffhochdruckerzeugung bei Kraftstoffeinspritzsystemen von Brennkraftmaschinen, insbesondere bei einem Common-Rail-Einspritzsystem, vorgesehen. Die Radialkolbenpumpe 10 hat ein Gehäuse 11, in dem eine Antriebswelle 12 mit einem Exzenterabschnitt 13 gelagert ist. Auf dem Exzenterabschnitt 13 ist ein Hubring 14 geführt. In Figur 1 der Zeichnung ist an dem Hubring 14 ein Kolbenfuß 15 eines bezüglich der Antriebswelle 12 radial im Pumpengehäuse 11 längsbewegbar geführten Pumpenkolbens 16 abgestützt. Der Kolbenfuß 15 ist aufgrund der Wirkung einer achsgleich zum Pumpenkolben 16 angeordneten Kolbenfeder 17, welche einerseits am Kolbenfuß 15 und andererseits am Pumpengehäuse 11 angreift, stets in Anlage am Hubring 14 gehalten. Dem Pumpenkolben 16 ist ferner ein Saugventil 18 und ein Druckventil 19 zugeordnet. Dem Saugventil 18 ist Kraftstoff, beispielsweise Dieselöl, durch einen Kanal 20 des Pumpengehäuses 11 unter Niederdruck zuführbar. Vom Druckventil 19 geht ein Kanal 21 des Pumpengehäuses 11 aus, welcher vom Pumpenkolben 16 geförderten Kraftstoff unter Hochdruck ableitet. Der Pumpenkolben 16 mit Kolbenfuß 15, Kolbenfeder 17, Saugventil 18 und Druckventil 19 bilden ein Pumpenelement 22 der Radialkolbenpumpe 10. Diese ist mit weiteren, beispielsweise insgesamt drei Pumpenelementen 22 ausgestattet, welche (in der Zeichnung nicht sichtbar) um 120° gegeneinander versetzt in einer Radialebene zur Achse der Antriebswelle 12 im Pumpengehäuse 11 angeordnet sind. Die weiteren Pumpenelemente 22 stehen gleichfalls mit den Kanälen 20 und 21 in Verbindung. Die nachfolgende Beschreibung des Pumpenelements 22 anhand der Figur 2 gilt somit gleichermaßen für die übrigen Pumpenelemente.A non-adjustable shown in Figure 1 Radial piston pump 10 is for the High-pressure fuel generation in fuel injection systems of internal combustion engines, especially in a common rail injection system, intended. The radial piston pump 10 has a housing 11 in which a drive shaft 12 with a Eccentric section 13 is mounted. On the eccentric section 13, a cam ring 14 is guided. In Figure 1 the drawing is on the cam ring 14 a piston foot 15 one with respect to Drive shaft 12 is longitudinally movable radially in the pump housing 11 guided pump piston 16 supported. The piston foot 15 is due to the effect of being coaxial with the pump piston 16 arranged piston spring 17, which on the one hand on the piston foot 15 and on the other hand attacks on the pump housing 11, always in System held on the cam ring 14. The pump piston 16 is a suction valve 18 and a pressure valve 19 are also assigned. The suction valve 18 is fuel, for example diesel oil, through a channel 20 of the pump housing 11 under low pressure fed. From the pressure valve 19 a channel 21 of the Pump housing 11, which from the pump piston 16th discharged fuel under high pressure. The Pump piston 16 with piston foot 15, piston spring 17, suction valve 18 and pressure valve 19 form a pump element 22 of the Radial piston pump 10. This is with other, for example equipped a total of three pump elements 22, which (in the drawing is not visible) offset by 120 ° in a radial plane to the axis of the drive shaft 12 in Pump housing 11 are arranged. The others Pump elements 22 are also with the channels 20 and 21 in connection. The following description of the Pump element 22 based on FIG. 2 thus applies equally for the other pump elements.

Das Saugventil 18 ist bezüglich der Antriebswelle 12 radial auf dem Pumpenkolben 16 folgend im Pumpengehäuse 11 angeordnet. Das Saugventil hat eine Ventilplatte 24, welche in einer Bohrung 25 des Pumpengehäuses 11 mit einer Verschlußschraube 26 niedergehalten ist. An der Ventilplatte 24 ist ein hohlkegelförmiger Ventilsitz 27 ausgebildet. Der Ventilsitz 27 ist somit bezüglich des Gehäuses festliegend angeordnet und steht mit dem Kraftstoff unter Niederdruck führenden Kanal 20 in leitender Verbindung. Das Saugventil 18 besitzt einen Schließkörper 28 mit einem kegelförmigen Ventilteller 29, welcher mit dem Ventilsitz 27 der Ventilplatte 24 zusammenarbeitet. Bei geschlossenem Saugventil 18 schließt der Ventilteller 29 des Schließkörpers 28 etwa bündig mit der pumpenkolbenseitigen Stirnfläche der Ventilplatte 24 ab.The suction valve 18 is radial with respect to the drive shaft 12 following on the pump piston 16 in the pump housing 11 arranged. The suction valve has a valve plate 24 which in a bore 25 of the pump housing 11 with a Locking screw 26 is held down. On the valve plate 24, a hollow cone-shaped valve seat 27 is formed. The Valve seat 27 is thus fixed with respect to the housing arranged and is under low pressure with the fuel leading channel 20 in conductive connection. The suction valve 18 has a closing body 28 with a conical Valve plate 29, which with the valve seat 27 Valve plate 24 works together. When closed Suction valve 18 closes the valve plate 29 of the Closing body 28 approximately flush with the pump piston side End face of the valve plate 24.

Der in einem Zylinderraum (Verdrängerraum) 32 des Pumpengehäuses 11 angeordnete Pumpenkolben 16 weist eine als Sacklochbohrung ausgebildete Längsbohrung 33 auf, welche in einem ebenen Bohrungsgrund 34 endet. In der achsgleich zum Pumpenkolben 16 angeordneten Längsbohrung 33 ist eine als Schraubendruckfeder ausgebildete Ventilschließfeder 35 aufgenommen. Da sich der in Figur 2 in seiner oberen Totpunktstellung befindliche Pumpenkolben 16 bis nahe an die den Zylinderraum 22 begrenzende Ventilplatte 24 erstreckt, befindet sich die Ventilschließfeder 35 zum überwiegenden Teil ihrer Länge in der Längsbohrung 33 des Pumpenkolbens. Die Ventilschließfeder 35 hat einen weitgehend dem Durchmesser der Längsbohrung 33 des Pumpenkolbens 16 angepaßten Außendurchmesser und greift einerseits am Bohrungsgrund 34 und andererseits am Ventilteller 29 an. Der Schließkörper 28 des Saugventils 18 ist mit einem stiftförmigen Schaft 36 versehen, welcher durch das Innere der Ventilschließfeder 35 geführt ist und in der gezeichneten Totpunktstellung des Pumpenkolbens 16 und Schließstellung des Saugventils 18 bis nahe an den Bohrungsgrund 34 reicht. Der mit seinem Außendurchmesser nahezu dem Innendurchmesser der Ventilschließfeder 35 entsprechende Schaft 36 des Schließkörpers 28 ist über den Ventilteller 29 hinaus um ein geringes Maß verlängert und in der Ventilplatte 24 längsbewegbar geführt. Da der achsgleich zum Pumpenkolben 16 verlaufende Schaft 36 des Schließkörpers 28 zusammen mit der Ventilschließfeder 35 weitgehend das Volumen der Längsbohrung 33 des Pumpenkolbens 16 ausfüllen, ist, wie Figur 2 zeigt, das Totvolumen der Pumpe gering. Wie Figur 2 ebenfalls zeigt, ist der Zylinderraum 32 saugventilseitig im Durchmesser gegenüber dem Pumpenkolben 16 geringfügig vergrößert und steht in diesem vergrößerten Abschnitt mit dem Druckventil 19 in Verbindung.The in a cylinder space (displacement space) 32 des Pump housing 16 arranged pump piston 16 has a than Blind bore formed longitudinal bore 33, which in a flat bottom 34 ends. In the same axis as the Pump piston 16 arranged longitudinal bore 33 is a Helical compression spring designed valve closing spring 35 added. Since the upper in FIG Pump pistons 16 are located close to the dead center extends the valve chamber 24 delimiting the cylinder space 22, the valve closing spring 35 is predominant Part of its length in the longitudinal bore 33 of the pump piston. The valve closing spring 35 largely has one Diameter of the longitudinal bore 33 of the pump piston 16 adjusted outer diameter and engages on the one hand Hole bottom 34 and on the other hand on the valve plate 29. The Closing body 28 of the suction valve 18 is with a provided pin-shaped shaft 36 which through the interior the valve closing spring 35 is guided and in the Drawn dead center position of the pump piston 16 and Closed position of the suction valve 18 to close to the Hole bottom 34 is enough. The one with its outer diameter almost the inside diameter of the valve closing spring 35 corresponding shaft 36 of the closing body 28 is over the Valve plate 29 extended by a small amount and in the valve plate 24 guided longitudinally. Because the axis to the pump piston 16 extending shaft 36 of the closing body 28 together with the valve closing spring 35 largely Fill the volume of the longitudinal bore 33 of the pump piston 16, As shown in FIG. 2, the dead volume of the pump is low. How FIG. 2 also shows the cylinder space 32 on the suction valve side compared to the pump piston 16 slightly enlarged and stands in this enlarged Section with the pressure valve 19 in connection.

In der gezeichneten Stellung des Pumpenkolbens 16 übt die Ventilschließfeder 35 eine maximale Schließkraft auf den Ventilteller 29 des Saugventils 18 aus und hält dieses geschlossen. Beim Saughub des Pumpenkolbens 16 wird dieser aus der gezeichneten Stellung in Richtung auf den Exzenterabschnitt 13 der Antriebswelle 12 bewegt. Dabei erfährt die Ventilschließfeder 35 eine Verringerung ihrer Schließkraft. Der durch den Kanal 20 dem Saugventil 18 zugeführte Kraftstoff unter Niederdruck übt eine der Federkraft entgegengerichtete Öffnungskraft auf den Ventilteller 29 aus. Bei Überwiegen der Öffnungskraft wird das Saugventil 18 geöffnet, das heißt der Ventilteller 29 hebt vom Ventilsitz 27 ab und bewegt sich um ein geringes Maß in den Zylinderraum 32 hinein. Das Öffnen des Saugventils 18 erfolgt in Abhängigkeit vom Druck des zugeführten Kraftstoffs: bei hohem Druck findet das Öffnen des Saugventils 18 bereits bei geringem Saughub des Pumpenkolbens 16 statt; bei niedrigem Druck wird das Saugventil geöffnet, wenn der Pumpenkolben 16 einen größeren Saughub zurückgelegt hat. Die Ventilschließfeder 35 ist jedoch so ausgelegt, daß bei geringen Drücken des zugeführten Kraftstoffs das Saugventil 18 bei großem Saughub des Pumpenkolbens 16 sicher öffnet und eine Teilbefüllung des Zylinderraums 32 erfolgt. Aufgrund des sichergestellten Öffnens des Saugventils 18 ist in entsprechender Weise auch die Teilbefüllung der übrigen Pumpenelemente 22 der Radialkolbenpumpe 10 gegeben.In the drawn position of the pump piston 16, the Valve closing spring 35 a maximum closing force on the Valve plate 29 of the suction valve 18 and holds it closed. During the suction stroke of the pump piston 16, this becomes from the position shown towards the Eccentric section 13 of the drive shaft 12 moves. there the valve closing spring 35 experiences a reduction in its Closing force. The suction valve 18 through the channel 20 supplied fuel under low pressure exercises one of the Spring force opposing opening force on the Valve plate 29 out. If the opening force is predominant the suction valve 18 is open, i.e. the valve plate 29 lifts off the valve seat 27 and moves a little Measure into the cylinder space 32. Opening the Suction valve 18 takes place depending on the pressure of the supplied fuel: opening takes place at high pressure of the suction valve 18 already at a low suction stroke Pump piston 16 instead; at low pressure it will Suction valve opened when the pump piston 16 has a larger one Has completed suction stroke. The valve closing spring 35 is however designed so that at low pressures of supplied fuel, the suction valve 18 at large suction stroke of the pump piston 16 opens safely and a partial filling of the cylinder space 32 takes place.
