Definitions
- the invention relates to a device for Resetting a throttle valve for the combustion air control an internal combustion engine in a defined emergency air position according to the preamble of claim 1.
- Such a reset device is used in the event of failure the drive for the driver on the throttle valve shaft, the z. B. is an electric motor, the throttle valve in a defined rest position, the so-called emergency air or Emergency running position, reset to a minimum Throttle valve opening for the combustion air supply Internal combustion engine is ensured so that the latter in Idling or still running smoothly under minimal load.
- the reset device according to the invention has the advantage that the freedom from torsional backlash in the emergency air position technically simple means is reliably achieved.
- the Compensation spring can be made as a simple stamped part and is easy to assemble. The additional Manufacturing costs to achieve a reliable Freedom of play is minimal.
- a clamp spring 13 is received, which as cylindrical coil spring formed and is arranged concentrically to the throttle valve shaft 11 and their spring ends 131 and 132 towards the throttle valve shaft 11 are turned.
- 6 in a perspective view Clamp spring 13 to be seen is shown in FIG. 6 already biased so that the two inside directional spring ends 131, 132 cross and about run parallel to each other. From this bias a force results so that one between the spring ends 131, 132 introduced part is clamped.
- the stop 14 in called the following housing stop 14 on the housing 10 and the Stop 15, hereinafter called driver stop 15, on Driver 12 set.
- the housing stop 14th forming axial web in one piece with the housing 10 formed and protrudes axially from the bottom of the housing 10.
- the driver stop 15 is in Fig.
- the driver 12 of the drive for. B. the Electric motor, rotated in one direction or the other, so when the driver 12 rotates clockwise (with reference to FIG. 1) the spring end 131 of the clamp spring 13 and when the driver 12 rotates counterclockwise (with reference to FIG. 1) the spring end 132 of the clamp spring 13 taken away from the driver stop 15 and the Clamp spring 13 increasingly tensioned.
- the drive fails, So z. B. the electric motor is de-energized, the Driver 12 by the restoring force of the clamp spring 13 turned back, in one case counter Clockwise (refer to Fig. 1) until the Spring end 131 and in the other case clockwise (based on Fig. 1) until the spring end 132 each strikes the housing stop 14.
- the driver 12 takes the throttle valve shaft 11th entrained throttle valve 26 a defined position that so-called emergency air or emergency running position in which one defined opening of the throttle valve 26 is predetermined, so that the internal combustion engine has enough combustion air receives and still at idle or with minimal load runs smoothly.
- This game is born for example by tolerances in the direction of rotation seen distance of the stop surfaces 16 and 17 on the Housing stop 14 on the one hand and on the driver stop 15 on the other hand, ie by tolerances in the direction of rotation seen width of the stops 14, 15 forming Axial webs, as well as by tolerances in the bending angle of the Spring ends 131, 132 so that they are not flat on the Stop surfaces 16 or on the stop surfaces 17 of the abut two stops 14, 15, but against them more or less are employed.
- the spring ends 131, 132 are then, for example, only on the stop surfaces 16, 17 of the housing stop 14 or on the stop surfaces 16, 17 of the driver stop 15, and the driver 12 is in the emergency air position is not fixed without backlash.
- the compensation spring 18 on the Housing stop 14 arranged and lies between the Stop surface 16 on the housing stop 14 and the spring end 131 of the clamp spring 13
- the compensation spring 18 on the Driver stop 15 arranged and lies between the Stop surface 16 on the driver stop 15 and the spring end 131 of the spring clip 13.
- the Bias of the compensation spring 18 is set so that ideally it is half the preload of the Clamp spring 13 in the emergency air position.
- the 5 shown in perspective enlarged Compensation spring 18 a U-shaped spring clip 19 with a long leg 191 and a short leg 192 on. Both legs 191, 192 are via a crossbar 193 connected in one piece.
- the long leg 191 is bent outwards at a distance from the crosspiece 193, wherein the kinked leg portion is a spring leaf 20 forms the between the stop surface 16 of the Housing stop 14 (Fig. 1 - 4) or des Driver stop 15 (Fig. 6-9) and the spring end 131st the clamp spring 13 with directed against the spring end 131 Preload is.
- the compensation spring 18 is on the housing stop 14 (Fig. 1 - 4) or on the Driver stop 15 (Fig.
- the stop surface 16 of the housing stop 14 or Driver stop 15 a spring stop 22 or 23 formed on which the spring leaf 20 at or near his free end is under tension.
- the distance of the Spring stop 22 or 23 of the stop surface 16 of the Housing stop 14 or from the stop surface 16 of the Driver stop 15 also gives the area of Mobility of the spring leaf 20, so the travel of the Spring leaf 20 in front.
- both are in the emergency air position Stops 14, 15 one above the other in the radial direction, and the Clamp spring 13 puts over both of them Stop surfaces 16 on one side and both Stop faces 17 on the other side of the Driver stop 15 and the housing stop 14 overlapping spring ends 131 and 132 the driver 12 on Housing 10 fixed.
- the compensation spring presses 18 with its spring leaf 20 against the spring clip 13 and also generates a biasing force so that the driver 12 is biased in both directions and none Backlash of the driver 12 in the emergency air position can occur.
- modified reset device for the Throttle valve 26 is opposite the reset device 1-4 still beyond what has already been described modified to the extent that it is different from the Reset device according to FIGS. 1-4 of the housing stop 14 not with a larger one, but with a smaller one
- Radial distance from the housing axis 10 is arranged as the driver stop 15 from the throttle valve shaft 11, so that in the emergency air position of the driver stop 15 in Seen radially above the housing stop 14 lies.
- FIG. 6 shows the one in FIG. 7 for better illustration - 9 reset device shown the assembly Driver 12, throttle valve shaft 11 rotatably thereon seated throttle valve 26 and clamp spring 13 represented in three dimensions.
- the as from the driver 12 protruding axial web formed driver stop 15 carries the compensation spring 18, the spring leaf 20th between the spring end 131 of the clamp spring 13 and the Stop surface 16 lies on the driver stop 15.
- the Spring leaf 20 is supported near its free end on the Driver 12 set spring stop 23.
- the rigid short leg 192 of the U-shaped spring bracket 19th trained compensation spring 18 lies on the Stop surface 17 and between the spring leaf 20 and the Cross leg 193 of the spring clip 19 existing Leg section 191 'lies on the stop surface 16 of the Driver stop 15 each non-positively.
- the mode of operation of the driver stop 15 arranged compensation spring 18 for bringing about a The driver 12 is free of play in the emergency air position as described above.
- the operation of the compensation spring 18 is good at that 10 shown in the diagram.
- Torque curve M of the reset device on the Throttle valve 26 as a function of the angle of rotation ⁇ Throttle valve shaft 11 partially smaller in the area Angle of rotation around the emergency air point 0 ° shown.
- the strongly extended characteristic curve 24 represents the torque curve at maximum play between the stops 14, 15, that results in tolerance-related, in the direction of rotation seen greatest width of the housing stop 14th forming axial web and smallest width of the Driver stop 15 forming axial web or vice versa.
- the weaker curve 25 represents the Torque curve with minimal play of the stops 14, 15 represents the smallest tolerances between the Stops 14, 15 results.
