Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Schaltelement für einen Ventiltrieb einer Brennkraftmaschine, vorzugsweise zur Ventilabschaltung, mit einem Außenteil sowie einem in dessen Bohrung axial beweglichen Innenelement, wobei das Außenteil und das Innenelement in einer durch eine Lost-Motion-Feder erzielten axial entfernten Relativstellung wenigstens je eine zueinander fluchtende Aufnahme besitzen, wobei in einer der Aufnahmen in Richtung zur anderen Aufnahme ein oder mehrere verschiebliche Koppelmittel zur Kopplung des Innenelements mit dem Außenteil bei der Relativstellung zueinander appliziert sind, wobei zwischen dem Innenelement und dem Außenteil ein erster Höhenanschlag zur Definierung der Relativstellung appliziert ist und wobei in das Innenelement ein hydraulisches Spielausgleichselement mit einem Druckkolben eingebaut ist, welcher Druckkolben axial aus diesem heraus durch einen zweiten Höhenanschlag fixiert ist. The invention relates to a switching element for a valve train of an internal combustion engine, preferably for valve shutdown, with an outer part and a in the bore axially movable inner element, wherein the outer part and the Inner element in an achieved by a lost-motion spring axially removed relative position at least each have a mutually aligned recording, wherein in one of the recordings towards the other recording one or more displaceable Coupling means for coupling the inner member with the outer part at the relative position are applied to each other, wherein between the inner element and the outer part a first height stop for defining the relative position is applied and wherein in the inner element, a hydraulic clearance compensation element is installed with a pressure piston, which pressure piston axially this is fixed out by a second height stop.
Ein derartiges Schaltelement geht aus der als gattungsbildend betrachteten DE 199 15 531 hervor. Es ist hier als schaltbarer Nockenfolger für einen Stößelstangentrieb dargestellt. Dabei ist ein Höhenanschlag zur Definierung der Relativstellung über ein im Innenelement angeordnetes kolbenähnliches Element hergestellt. Dieses ragt radial außen in eine Längsnut des Außenteils. Im axial auseinander gefahrenen Zustand des Innenelements zum Außenteil schlägt das Element an einem Ende der Längsnut an. Somit soll eine fluchtende Zuordnung einer im Außenteil positionierten Koppelbohrung für einen im Innenelement angeordneten Kolben zur Kopplung geschaffen sein.Such a switching element goes from the considered as generic forming DE 199 15 531. It is here as a switchable cam follower for a push rod drive shown. Here is a height stop for defining the relative position via a piston-like element arranged in the inner element produced. This protrudes radially outward into a longitudinal groove of the outer part. In the axial apart driven condition of the inner element strikes the outer part the element at one end of the longitudinal groove. Thus, an aligned assignment a positioned in the outer part coupling hole for a in the inner element arranged piston to be created for coupling.
Nachteilig ist es bei dem vorgenannten Stand der Technik, dass eine Einstellung des Spiels der Kopplung relativ kompliziert und aufwändig ist. Es ist klar, dass die entsprechende Aufnahme im Außenteil (hier Koppelbohrung) zur Aufnahme des Kolbens geringfügig spielbehaftet gegenüber einem Außenmantel des Kolbens ausgebildet sein muss. Dieses Spiel und eine Höhenlage schwankt fertigungsbedingt von Schaltelement zu Schaltelement. Die relativ breite Varianz dieses mechanischen Leerwegs bei den Schaltelementen ist jedoch unerwünscht.It is disadvantageous in the aforementioned prior art that a setting the game of coupling is relatively complicated and expensive. It's clear, that the corresponding receptacle in the outer part (coupling hole here) for recording the piston slightly play with respect to an outer jacket of the piston must be formed. This game and a high altitude varies due to production of switching element to switching element. The relative wide variance of this mechanical void in the switching elements is however undesirable.
Um daher das Koppelspiel einzustellen bzw. dessen Varianz in einem erträglichen Maß zu halten, werden die Kolben zur Verriegelung gruppiert. Dies ist fertigungs- und messtechnisch äußerst aufwändig. Beispielsweise werden Schaltelemente komplett montiert, anschließend wird das Spiel gemessen, um daraufhin das Schaltelement wiederum zu demontieren und einen entsprechenden Kolben zur Kopplung zuzupaaren. Gleichfalls ist es denkbar, den Höhenanschlag an der Längsnut des Außenelements zu gruppieren.Therefore, to adjust the coupling play or its variance in a bearable To measure, the pistons are grouped to lock. This is Extremely complex in terms of production and metrology. For example Switching elements completely assembled, then the game is measured to then dismantle the switching element again and a corresponding Zuzupaaren piston for coupling. Likewise, it is conceivable, the height stop to group on the longitudinal groove of the outer element.
Ein weiterer Höhenanschlag ist beim o. g. Stand der Technik für einen Druckkolben des Spielausgleichselements vorgesehen und als Ring ausgebildet. Another height stop is the o. G. Prior art for a pressure piston provided the lash adjuster and formed as a ring.
Sind zwei Kolben zur Kopplung vorgesehen, so wie es aus der DE 42 06 166 hervorgeht, erweisen sich die o. g. Anschlagmaßnahmen quasi als unmöglich. Hier wird die fluchtende Lage der sich im Innenelement diametral gegenüber liegenden Koppelbohrungen über Anlage der beiden axial beweglichen Teile des Schaltelements am Nockengrundkreis realisiert. Eine Einstellung des Spiels der Kopplung erfolgt hier fertigungs- und messtechnisch äußerst aufwändig über eine Paarung von entsprechenden Schaltelementen (hier Tassenstößel) mit Nockenpaaren bzw. -wellen. Ggf. wird eine zu große Spielabweichung zugelassen werden müssen.If two pistons are provided for coupling, as is known from DE 42 06 166 shows, the o. g. Impact measures virtually impossible. Here, the aligned position of the inner element is diametrically opposite lying coupling holes on conditioning of the two axially movable parts realized the switching element on the cam base circle. A setting of the Play the coupling takes place here manufacturing and metrology extremely complex via a pairing of corresponding switching elements (here bucket tappets) with cam pairs or shafts. Possibly. will be too big a game deviation must be approved.
Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es daher, ein Schaltelement der vorgenannten Art zu schaffen, bei welchem die zitierten Nachteile mit einfachen Mitteln beseitigt sind.The object of the invention is therefore to a switching element of the aforementioned type in which eliminates the cited disadvantages with simple means are.
Erfindungsgemäß wird diese Aufgabe dadurch gelöst,
- dass die Höhenanschläge als jeweils mindestens ein ringartiges Element wie ein Sicherungsring ausgebildet und übereinander liegend in der Bohrung des Außenteils angeordnet sind, wobei in die Bohrung des Außenteils gesehen der untere Sicherungsring den zweiten Höhenanschlag und der darüberliegende erste Sicherungsring den ersten Höhenanschlag bildet, wobei bei Montage der Sicherungsringe dickenvariable erste und dickenkonstante zweite Sicherungsringe vorgesehen sind und wobei das Sicherungsringpaket über den ersten Sicherungsring aus der Bohrung heraus an einem Anschlag wie einem Ringabsatz der Bohrung anliegt.
- that the height stops are each formed as at least one ring-like element as a retaining ring and lying one above the other in the bore of the outer part, wherein seen in the bore of the outer part of the lower retaining ring the second height stop and the overlying first locking ring forms the first height stop, wherein during assembly the retaining rings are provided with thickness-variable first and thick-constant second securing rings, and wherein the securing ring package bears against a stop such as an annular shoulder of the bore via the first securing ring out of the bore.
Durch die mindestens zwei bzw. zwei Sicherungsringe ergibt sich ein einfacher, kippfreier sowie einstellbarer Höhenanschlag sowie gleichzeitig eine Verliersicherung für den Druckkolben des hydraulischen Spielausgleichselements. Vorzugsweise sollen zwei Koppelmittel (Kolben) im Innenelement vorgesehen sein. Gleichermaßen bezieht sich der Schutzbereich der Erfindung jedoch auch auf eine Ausgestaltung mit nur einem Kolben bzw. mit einer Mehrzahl von Kolben.Due to the at least two or two retaining rings results in a simple, non-tilting and adjustable height stop as well as a captive safety device for the pressure piston of the hydraulic lash adjuster. Preferably two coupling means (piston) should be provided in the inner element. equally However, the scope of the invention also relates to a Embodiment with only one piston or with a plurality of pistons.
Der nebengeordnete Anspruch 8 bezieht sich alternativ auf ein Verfahren zur Einstellung des Koppelspiels bei einem Schaltelement nach den Merkmalen des Oberbegriffs des Anspruchs 1.The subordinate claim 8 alternatively relates to a method for adjustment the coupling play in a switching element according to the features of Preamble of claim 1.
Durch die vorgenannten Maßnahmen sind die eingangs zitierten Nachteile mit einfachen Mitteln und wirkungsvoll beseitigt. Zum einen ist bei Montage des Schaltelements garantiert, dass der Druckkolben des Spielausgleichselements und somit auch das Innenelement nicht verloren geht (zweiter Höhenanschlag). Zum anderen ergibt sich durch die dickenvariabel bereitgehaltenen ersten Sicherungsringe als erste Höhenanschläge eine sehr einfache Möglichkeit, den Leerweg des wenigstens einen Koppelelements (Kolben) gegenüber seiner umschließenden Aufnahme einzustellen. Vorzugsweise wird dieser Leerweg so eingestellt, dass jede Aufriahme das entsprechende Koppelmittel in beide Axialrichtungen gleichbeabstandet umschließt. Sollte die Aufnahme eine Bohrung und keine Ringnut sein, so ist es besonders vorteilhaft, wenn die Bohrung das entsprechende Koppelmittel konzentrisch umfaßt.By the aforementioned measures are the disadvantages cited above simple means and effectively eliminated. For one thing, when mounting the Switching element guarantees that the pressure piston of the lash adjuster and Thus, the inner element is not lost (second height stop). To the Another results from the variable thickness held ready first retaining rings as the first height stops a very easy way, the free travel of the at least one coupling element (piston) with respect to its enclosing To stop recording. Preferably, this free travel is adjusted so that each Aufriahme the corresponding coupling means equidistant in both axial directions encloses. Should the receptacle be a hole and not an annular groove, so it is particularly advantageous if the bore the corresponding coupling agent concentrically.
Anstelle der Sicherungsringe erschließen sich dem Fachmann an dieser Stelle noch weitere leicht montierbare Anschlagmittel, wie Scheiben, einsetzbare Stifte, Keile, Ringe usw.. Auch können diese Mittel selbstverständlich an einem anderen Höhenabschnitt als dem randseitigen des Schaltelements angeordnet sein. Ggf. können mehrere Sicherungsringe zueinander gepaart werden, um das Koppelspiel bzw. die Verliersicherung zu realisieren.Instead of the retaining rings will be apparent to the skilled person at this point even more easily mounted slings, such as discs, usable pins, Wedges, rings, etc. Also, these funds can of course be on another Height section can be arranged as the edge side of the switching element. Possibly. several circlips can be paired to each other to the coupling play or to realize the captive protection.
Somit ist garantiert, dass im entsprechenden Koppelfall die Koppelmittel in der sie umschließenden Aufnahme des Außenteils, über eine Vielzahl von Schaltelementen hinweg, stets einen gleichen Leerweg zurücklegen. Thus, it is guaranteed that in the corresponding coupling case, the coupling agent in the them enclosing receiving the outer part, via a plurality of switching elements away, always traversing the same empty path.
Vorzugsweise sind, wie genannt, zwei Kolben als Koppelmittel vorgesehen, welche in der als Radialbohrung ausgebildeten Aufnahme des Innenelements verlaufen und sich dort diametral gegenüberliegen. Hierdurch liegt ein besonders kippsicherer Mechanismus vor, der bei Kopplung nur eine geringe Bauteilbelastung erzeugt. Anstelle der Radialbohrung im Innenelement ist auch eine Sackbohrung oder eine ähnliche Ausgestaltung denkbar.Preferably, as mentioned, two pistons are provided as coupling means, which run in the formed as a radial bore receiving the inner element and there are diametrically opposite. This is a particularly tip over Mechanism that generates only a small component load when coupled. Instead of the radial bore in the inner element is also a blind hole or a similar embodiment conceivable.
In Fortbildung der Erfindung ist es vorgeschlagen, die Aufnahme des Außenteils, wie vorhergehend erwähnt, als Ringnut in dessen Bohrung zu fertigen. Dies hat insbesondere fertigungstechnische Vorteile. Anstelle der Ringnut können auch Bohrungen angeordnet werden.In a further development of the invention, it is proposed to accommodate the outer part, as previously mentioned, to manufacture as an annular groove in the bore. this has in particular manufacturing advantages. In place of the annular groove can also Boreholes are arranged.
Gemäß einer weiteren vorteilhaften Konkretisierung der Erfindung ist das Innenelement gegenüber dem Außenteil beispielsweise über ein stiftartiges Element verdrehgesichert. Somit haben die Koppelmittel in Bezug auf ihre Aufnahme über den gesamten Betriebszeitraum des Schaltelements hinweg eine gleiche Positionierung wie bei der Einstellung des Koppelspiels. Hierdurch wirken sich Toleranzen, im Falle der Ausbildung der Aufnahme als umlaufende Ringnut, nicht mehr aus.According to a further advantageous concretization of the invention, the inner element relative to the outer part, for example via a pin-like element against rotation. Thus, the coupling agents have in terms of their absorption over the same positioning over the entire operating period of the switching element as in the setting of the coupling game. As a result, tolerances, in the case of training the recording as a circumferential groove, not more out.
Gleichfalls ist es vorgeschlagen, die Ringnut, im Falle der Verwendung von zwei Kolben als Koppelmittel, von zwei sich diametral gegenüberliegenden Öldurchlässen wie Bohrungen schneiden zu lassen. Sind zwei Zuleitungen in einer Ölgalerie einer Umgebungskonstruktion wie beispielsweise einem Zylinderkopf oder einer mit der Brennkraftmaschine verbundenen Führung für das Schaltelement vorgesehen, die sich gegenüberliegen, so ist es egal, welcher Öldurchlaß des Schaltelements mit welcher Zuleitung kommuniziert. Wichtig sind gleich lange Ölwege zur Erzielung gleicher Schaltzeiten. Im Falle nur einer Zuleitung ist allerdings ein gerichteter Einbau des Schaltelements notwendig. Hier können entsprechende Markierungen an diesem zur Erleichterung der Montage angebracht werden. Selbstverständlich können die Öldurchlässe im Außenteil auch an einem anderen Umfangsabschnitt dieses angeordnet sein, so dass sie nicht zu den Kolben im Koppelfall fluchten. Likewise, it is suggested the annular groove, in the case of using two Piston as a coupling agent, of two diametrically opposite oil passages how to have holes cut. Are two supply lines in an oil gallery a surrounding structure such as a cylinder head or a provided with the internal combustion engine guide for the switching element, which are opposite, it does not matter which oil passage of the switching element with which supply line communicates. Important are the same length of oil routes to Achieving equal switching times. In the case of only one lead, however, is a directed Installation of the switching element necessary. Here can appropriate markings attached to this for ease of assembly. Of course the oil passages in the outer part also at another peripheral portion This should be arranged so that it does not reach the piston in the coupling case aligned.
Für den Fall, dass das Schaltelement als Nockenfolger in einem Stößelstangentrieb gefertigt ist, wie es in weiterer zweckmäßiger Fortbildung der Erfindung vorgeschlagen ist, und dieser Nockenfolger eine Rolle als Nockengegenläufer hat, sowie zur Zuordnung der Zuleitungen aus der Umgebungskonstruktion zu den Öldurchlässen, ist es notwendig, das Schaltelement verdrehzusichem. Hier sind zweckmäßige Verdrehsicherungsmaßnahmen wie Anflachungen am Außenmantel des Außenteils vorgeschlagen.In the event that the switching element as a cam follower in a push rod drive is made, as proposed in further expedient development of the invention is, and this cam follower has a role as a cam counter-rotor, and for the assignment of the supply lines from the surrounding construction to the Oil passages, it is necessary to twist the switching element. Here are appropriate anti-rotation measures such as flattening on the outer jacket of the outer part proposed.
Anstelle der Kolben als Koppelmittel können auch andere Elemente wie Klinken, Kugeln, Keile und ähnliche einen Formschluss erzeugende Elemente eingesetzt werden. Ggf. ist auch ein Form-Kraftschluss denkbar.Instead of the piston as a coupling agent, other elements such as pawls, Spheres, wedges and similar form-fitting generating elements used become. Possibly. is also a form-frictional conceivable.
Der Schutzbereich dieser Erfindung bezieht sich ausdrücklich auf alle Arten von Schaltelementen in Ventiltrieben wie die vorgenannten Nockenfolger in Stößelstangentrieben, Tassenstößel bzw. Abstützelemente für Schlepphebel etc..The scope of this invention expressly relates to all types of Switching elements in valve trains, such as the aforementioned cam followers in pushrod drives, Cup tappets or support elements for drag levers etc ..
Die Erfindung ist zweckmäßigerweise anhand der Zeichnung näher erläutert. Es zeigen:

Die Figuren 1, 2 offenbaren ein Schaltelement 1 für einen Ventiltrieb einer
Brennkraftmaschine. Dieses ist hier als Rollenstößel für einen Stößelstangentrieb
ausgebildet. Es besteht aus einem Außenteil 2, in dessen Bohrung 3 ein
axial bewegliches Innenelement 4 verläuft. Das Innenelement 4 und das Außenteil
2 sind durch eine nicht näher zu erläuternde Lost-Motion-Feder 5 voneinander
weg beaufschlagt.Figures 1, 2 disclose a switching element 1 for a valve train a
Internal combustion engine. This is here as a roller plunger for a pushrod shoot
educated. It consists of an
In der zeichnerisch dargestellten axial voneinander entfernten Position des
Außenteils 2 zum Innenelement 4 fluchten deren Aufnahmen 6, 7 zueinander.
Die Aufnahme 6 des Außenteils 2 ist als umlaufende Ringnut gefertigt. Die
Aufnahme 7 im Innenelement 4 hingegen ist als radial verlaufende Durchgangsbohrung
ausgebildet. In dieser sind zwei sich diametral gegenüberliegende
Koppelmittel 8 angeordnet, die hier als Kolben ausgebildet sind. Die
Koppelmittel 8 sind radial nach außen über die Kraft eines Druckfedermittels 10
beaufschlagt (Koppelrichtung). Radial nach innen, d. h. in Entkoppelrichtung,
können die Koppelmittel 8 über Hydraulikmittel verlagert werden. Hierfür hat
das Außenteil 2 zweckmäßigerweise zwei sich diametral gegenüberliegende
Öldurchlässe 11 (siehe Figur 1). Diese sind hier als Bohrung gefertigt und um
90° zu den Koppelmitteln 8 in Umfangsrichtung versetzt. Zweckmäßigerweise
kommunizieren die Öldurchlässe 11 mit zwei Zuleitungen für Hydraulikmittel
aus einer nicht näher zu erläuternden Umgebungskonstruktion.In the illustrated axially spaced apart position of the
Des Weiteren kann sich der Fachmann den Figuren entnehmen, dass am Außenmantel
12 des Außenteils 2 Mittel 13 zur Verdrehsicherung appliziert sind.
Diese sind hier als sich gegenüberliegende Anflachungen ausgebildet. Diese
Maßnahme erweist sich zum einen notwendig, um die Öldurchlässe 11 mit ihren
entsprechenden Zuleitungen zu verbinden und zum anderen, um eine Rolle
14 gegenüber einem nicht dargestellten Nocken auszurichten.Furthermore, the person skilled in the figures can be seen that on the
Des Weiteren ist zu erkennen, dass das Innenelement 4 gegenüber dem Außenteil
2 ebenfalls verdrehgesichert ist. Hierfür ist im Außenteil 2 eine Verdrehsicherung
15 (hier als Stift ausgebildet) befestigt, welche radial in die Bohrung
3 des Außenteils 2 hineinragt. Das Innenelement 4 wiederum hat eine der
Verdrehsicherung 15 zugewandte Längsaussparung 16, an deren Flanken die
Verdrehsicherung 15 geführt ist. Furthermore, it can be seen that the
Das Außenteil 2 besitzt in einem bohrungsfernen Abschnitt eine Ringnut 17 mit
einem Anschlag 18. In die Ringnut 17 sind zwei Sicherungsringe 19, 20 eingeschnappt.
Diese bilden jeweils einen zweiten und ersten Höhenanschlag 21,
22. Die Sicherungsringe 19, 20 insgesamt liegen am Anschlag 18 an. Dabei
dient der zweite, untere Sicherungsring 19 einer Verliersicherung eines Druckkolbens
23 eines hydraulischen Spielausgleichselements 24, welches in das
Innenelement 4 eingebaut ist. Über den ersten Sicherungsring 20, welcher auf
dem zweiten Sicherungsring 19 liegt und bei Montage dickenvariabel bereitgehalten
wird, erfolgt eine Einstellung des Koppelspiels der Koppelmittel 8 in der
sie umgebenden Aufnahme 6.The
Es ist klar, dass der Druckkolben 23 mit Innenelement 4 nach Montage des
zweiten Sicherungsrings 19 nicht mehr aus der Bohrung 3 des Außenteils 2
über die Kraft einer Druckfeder 25 des Spielausgleichselements 24 bzw. der
Lost-Motion-Feder 5 geschoben werden kann. Der Druckkolben 23 ist somit
über seinen Rand 26 in Anlage an dem zweiten Sicherungsring 19.It is clear that the
Vor Einstellung des Koppelspiels der Koppelmittel 8 gegenüber ihrer Aufnahme
6 muss dieses ermittelt werden. Dies erfolgt bei ausgefahrenen Koppelmitteln
8. Dabei wird einfach gesagt deren Leerweg in der Aufnahme 6 nach Belastung
des Innenelements 4 und somit dessen Verschiebung in der Bohrung 3 bis zum
Erreichen einer Unterseite 27 der Aufnahme 6 gemessen. Anschließend ist es
für den Fachmann relativ einfach, aufgrund des gemessenen Leerwegs zurückzurechnen,
bei welcher Höhe eine Mittenlage der Koppelmittel 8 in der
Aufnahme 6 erreicht ist. Nachdem dieser Wert feststeht, wird ein entsprechend
dicker erster Sicherungsring 20 direkt oberhalb des zweiten Sicherungsrings
