Description
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Flügelzellen-Nockenwellenversteller mit einem Stator, einem mit einer Nockenwelle verbindbaren Rotor mit mehreren radial abstehenden Flügeln, die in Flügelnuten eingesetzt sind, wobei eine Flügelnut Nutseitenflächen, einen Nutgrund und die Nutseitenflächen hinterschneidende, abgerundete Übergangsbereiche zwischen den Nutseitenflächen und dem Nutgrund aufweist.The invention relates to a vane-type camshaft adjuster with a stator, a rotor connectable to a camshaft having a plurality of radially projecting vanes inserted in vane grooves, wherein a vane groove has groove side surfaces, a groove bottom and the groove side surfaces undercut, rounded transition regions between the groove side surfaces and the groove bottom ,
Nockenwellenversteller werden eingesetzt, um die Steuerzeiten für das Öffnen oder Schließen der Ventile zu verändern. Die feste Winkelbeziehung zwischen der Nockenwelle und der sie antreibenden Kurbelwelle wird dadurch aufgehoben und die Steuerzeiten können in Abhängigkeit der Drehzahl und weiterer Parameter optimal eingestellt werden. Nockenwellenversteller ermöglichen eine relative Verdrehung der Nockenwelle zur Kurbelwelle.Camshaft adjusters are used to change the timing for opening or closing the valves. The fixed angular relationship between the camshaft and the crankshaft driving it is thereby canceled and the timing can be optimally adjusted depending on the speed and other parameters. Camshaft adjusters allow a relative rotation of the camshaft to the crankshaft.
Bekannte Flügelzellen-Nockenwellenversteller weisen einen Rotor mit mehreren radial abstehenden Flügeln auf, die durch die Kraft einer Feder radial nach außen gegen ein Statorgehäuse gedrückt werden. An dem Stator sind mehrere radial nach innen vorspringende Anschläge ausgebildet, die die Verstellbewegung des Rotors in beide Drehrichtungen begrenzen, wenn die Flügel gegen die Anschläge laufen. Die Flügel liegen mit ihren Stirnkanten am Stator an, so dass zwischen jeweils einer Flügelseite und der benachbarten Seite eines Anschlags des Stators eine Kammer gebildet wird, in die ein Fluid, in der Regel das Motoröl, über ein dem Nockenwellenversteller zugeordnetes Ventil gefördert wird. Der Stator dient einerseits zum Trennen und Abdichten der Fluidkammern, andererseits zur Festlegung des Verstellwinkels zwischen der Nockenwelle und der Kurbelwelle.Known vane-type camshaft adjusters include a rotor having a plurality of radially projecting vanes which are urged radially outwardly against a stator housing by the force of a spring. On the stator a plurality of radially inwardly projecting stops are formed, which limit the adjustment movement of the rotor in both directions of rotation when the wings run against the stops. The wings abut with their end edges on the stator, so that between each one wing side and the adjacent side of a stop of the stator, a chamber is formed, in which a fluid, usually the engine oil, is conveyed via a valve associated with the camshaft adjuster. The stator serves on the one hand for separating and sealing the fluid chambers, on the other hand for fixing the adjustment angle between the camshaft and the crankshaft.
Das in den Rotor eingeleitete Drehmoment stützt sich über die in Nuten eingesteckten Flügel am Stator sowie hydraulisch am Ölpolster in den Statorkammern ab. Die dadurch auf die Flügel wirkende Kraft ruft ihrerseits Reaktionskräfte in der Nut des Rotors hervor. Eine Kraft wirkt an der Nutkante am Rotoraußendurchmesser, die zugehörige Reaktionskraft wirkt auf der gegenüberliegenden Nutseite im Nutgrund. Diese Kräfte bewirken eine kombinierte Zug- und Biegebeanspruchung in den beiden Übergängen der Nutseitenfläche zum Nutgrund. In dem Eckbereich am Übergang der Nutseitenfläche zum Nutgrund wird durch die Kerbwirkung eine dynamisch auftretende Spannungskonzentration erzeugt. Aus diesem Grund ist der Übergangsbereich bei herkömmlichen Flügelzellen-Nockenwellenverstellern abgerundet ausgebildet, so dass er die Nutseitenfläche hinterschneidet. Allerdings treten dennoch erhebliche Spannungen in dem Eckbereich auf, die bei den üblichen Betriebslasten für die verwendeten Werkstoffe kritisch sein können.The torque introduced into the rotor is supported on the stator via the grooves in the grooves and hydraulically on the oil cushion in the stator chambers. The force acting thereon on the wings in turn causes reaction forces in the groove of the rotor. A force acts on the groove edge on the rotor outer diameter, the associated reaction force acts on the opposite groove side in the groove bottom. These forces cause a combined tensile and bending stress in the two transitions of the groove side surface to the groove bottom. In the corner region at the transition of the groove side surface to the bottom of the groove a dynamically occurring stress concentration is generated by the notch effect. For this reason, the transition region in conventional vane-type camshaft adjusters is rounded, so that it undercuts the groove side surface. However, significant stresses still occur in the corner area, which can be critical at the usual operating loads for the materials used.

Der Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Flügelzellen-Nockenwellenversteller anzugeben, bei dem geringere Spannungen auftreten.The invention is therefore based on the object to provide a vane-camshaft adjuster, occur in the lower voltages.
Zur Lösung dieses Problems ist bei einem Flügelzellen-Nockenwellenversteller der eingangs genannten Art erfindungsgemäß vorgesehen, dass die abgerundeten Übergangsbereiche zumindest teilweise als den Nutgrund hinterschneidende Kreisbogenabschnitte ausgebildet sind.To solve this problem is provided according to the invention in a vane-type camshaft adjuster of the type mentioned that the rounded transition areas are at least partially formed as the groove bottom undercut circular arc sections.
Bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Flügelzellen-Nockenwellenversteller ist der Nutgrund nicht eben ausgebildet, sondern die Eckbereiche sind als den Nutgrund hinterschneidende Kreisbogenabschnitte gestaltet. Lediglich der mittlere Bereich des Nutgrundes ist eben, da sich dort eine Feder abstützt. Die erfindungsgemäße Lösung weist den Vorteil auf, dass lediglich geringe fertigungstechnische Änderungen erforderlich sind. Durch den optimierten Querschnitt der Flügelnut kann die Beanspruchung insbesondere in dem Übergangsbereich reduziert werden, so dass auf höherwertige Werkstoffe verzichtet werden kann, wodurch sich Kosteneinsparungen ergeben.In the vane-type camshaft adjuster according to the invention, the groove bottom is not flat, but rather the corner regions are designed as arcuate sections that undercut the groove base. Only the central region of the groove bottom is flat, since there is a spring supported. The solution according to the invention has the advantage that only minor manufacturing changes are required. Due to the optimized cross-section of the vane groove, the stress can be reduced, in particular in the transition region, so that higher-grade materials can be dispensed with, which results in cost savings.
Bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Flügelzellen-Nockenwellenversteller kann der Abstand des unteren Endes der Nutseitenfläche vom Nutgrund zur Nutbreite in einem Verhältnis von 0,4 bis 0,55, insbesondere näherungsweise 0,48, stehen. Mit diesen Parametern kann die Spannungskonzentration in dem Übergangsbereich bereits beträchtlich reduziert werden. Die Nutbreite ist ausreichend bemessen, so dass die in die Flügelnut eingesetzten Flügel den auftretenden Kräften standhalten können.In the vane-type camshaft adjuster according to the invention, the distance of the lower end of the groove side surface from the groove bottom to the groove width may be in a ratio of 0.4 to 0.55, in particular approximately 0.48. With these parameters, the stress concentration in the transition region can already be considerably reduced. The groove width is sufficiently dimensioned so that the wings inserted into the wing groove can withstand the occurring forces.
Bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Flügelzellen-Nockenwellenversteller wird es besonders bevorzugt, dass der Radius der Kreisbogenabschnitte das 0,5-fache bis 0,6-fache des Abstands des unteren Endes der Nutseitenfläche vom Nutgrund beträgt. Insbesondere kann der Radius das 0,56-fache des Abstands betragen.In the vane-type camshaft adjuster according to the present invention, it is particularly preferable that the radius of the circular arc portions is 0.5 times to 0.6 times the distance of the lower end of the groove side surface from the groove bottom. In particular, the radius may be 0.56 times the distance.
Es kann auch vorgesehen sein, dass der horizontale Abstand des Mittelpunkts eines Kreisbogenabschnitts von der Symmetrielinie der Nut das 0,3-fache bis 0,4-fache der Nutbreite beträgt. Besonders bevorzugt wird der Wert 0,35.It can also be provided that the horizontal distance of the center point of a circular arc portion from the symmetry line of the groove is 0.3 times to 0.4 times the groove width. The value of 0.35 is particularly preferred.
Bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Flügelzellen-Nockenwellenversteller kann der vertikale Abstand des Mittelpunkts des Kreisbogenabschnitts zum Nutgrund das 0,90-fache bis 0,99-fache des Radius des Kreisbogenabschnitts betragen. Besonders bevorzugt wird der Wert 0,95. Die angegebenen geometrischen Werte und Parameter sind keine starren Grenzen, sie können variiert werden, sofern sich dadurch die gewünschte Spannungsreduzierung ergibt.In the vane-type phaser of the present invention, the vertical distance of the center of the circular arc portion from the groove bottom may be 0.90 times to 0.99 times the radius of the circular arc portion. Particularly preferred is the value 0.95. The specified geometric values and parameters are not rigid limits, they can be varied as long as this results in the desired voltage reduction.
Bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Flügelzellen-Nockenwellenversteller lässt sich eine weitere Optimierung der auftretenden Spannungen erzielen, wenn eine Nutseitenfläche eine Entlastungskerbe aufweist. Bei dieser Erfindungsausgestaltung ist die geometrische Optimierung nicht auf den abgerundeten Übergangsbereich beschränkt, da die Nutseitenfläche ebenfalls eine optimierte Form aufweist. Durch die Entlastungskerbe wird der Kraftfluss ausgehend von der oberen Nutkante in Richtung der Rotormitte in einem weiten Bogen sanft umgelenkt, so dass keine hohe Spannungskonzentration im Nutgrund entsteht. Die auftretenden Kräfte und Spannungen werden durch die Entlastungskerbe gleichmäßiger verteilt, so dass die Materialbeanspruchung verringert wird.In the vane-type camshaft adjuster according to the invention, a further optimization of the occurring stresses can be achieved if a groove side surface has a relief notch. In this embodiment of the invention, the geometric optimization is not limited to the rounded transition region, since the groove side surface also has an optimized shape. Due to the relief notch, the force flow is smoothly deflected from the upper edge of the groove in the direction of the rotor center in a wide arc, so that no high concentration of stress occurs in the groove bottom. The occurring forces and stresses are distributed more evenly by the relief notch, so that the material stress is reduced.
Es wird besonders bevorzugt, dass die Entlastungskerbe von dem nutgrundseitigen Ende der Nutseitenfläche beabstandet ist. Der Flügel liegt damit am oberen, äußeren Ende der Nut an, ferner liegt der Flügel zwischen der Entlastungskerbe und dem abgerundeten Bereich in der Nähe des Nutgrundes an den Nutseitenflächen an, so dass er in der Nut geführt wird.It is particularly preferred that the relief notch is spaced from the groove base end of the groove side surface. The wing is thus at the upper, outer end of the groove, further, the wing is located between the relief notch and the rounded portion near the groove bottom at the groove side surfaces so as to be guided in the groove.
Eine besonders wirksame Spannungsreduzierung lässt sich erzielen, wenn die Entlastungskerbe des erfindungsgemäßen Flügelzellen-Nockenwellenverstellers zumindest teilweise als Kreisbogenabschnitt ausgebildet ist. Bei der Verwendung eines Kreisbogenabschnitts wird auf Ecken verzichtet, die zu einer Spannungserhöhung führen könnten.A particularly effective voltage reduction can be achieved if the relief notch of the vane-type camshaft adjuster according to the invention is at least partially formed as a circular arc section. When using a circular arc section is omitted on corners that could lead to an increase in voltage.
In weiterer Ausgestaltung der Erfindung kann es vorgesehen sein, dass das nutgrundseitige Ende der Entlastungskerbe näherungsweise senkrecht und das gegenüberliegende Ende der Entlastungskerbe tangential zur Nutseitenfläche verläuft. Bei einem derart aufgebauten Rotor lässt sich nochmals eine beträchtliche Reduzierung der Spannungen erzielen.In a further embodiment of the invention, it may be provided that the nutgrundseitige end of the relief notch is approximately perpendicular and the opposite end of the relief notch tangent to the groove side surface. With a rotor constructed in this way, a considerable reduction of the stresses can once again be achieved.
Es kann auch vorgesehen sein, dass der Radius des Kreisbogenabschnitts im Bereich des Nutgrunds derart gewählt ist, dass er tangential in den Kreisbogenabschnitt der Entlastungskerbe einmündet. Dementsprechend kann durch die Berandung beider Kreisbogenabschnitte ein Einhüllende gelegt werden, die einen bestimmten Radius besitzt.It can also be provided that the radius of the circular arc section in the region of the groove bottom is selected such that it opens tangentially into the circular arc section of the relief notch. Accordingly, an envelope can be placed by the boundary of both arc sections, which has a certain radius.
Optimale Spannungsverhältnisse lassen sich erzielen, wenn der Radius des Kreisbogenabschnitts im Bereich der Entlastungskerbe das 0,75-fache bis das 0,85-fache der Nuthöhe beträgt. Besonders bevorzugt wird ein Wert von 0,81.Optimum stress ratios can be achieved if the radius of the circular arc section in the area of the relief notch is 0.75 times to 0.85 times the groove height. Particularly preferred is a value of 0.81.
Bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Flügelzellen-Nockenwellenversteller kann der Radius des Kreisbogenabschnitts im Bereich des Nutgrunds etwa das 0,20-fache bis das 0,28-fache des Radius' des Kreisbogenabschnitts im Bereich der Entlastungskerbe betragen. Besonders bevorzugt wird ein Wert von 0,24.In the vane-type camshaft adjuster according to the invention, the radius of the arcuate section in the area of the groove base may be approximately 0.20 times to 0.28 times the radius of the circular arc section in the region of the relief groove. Particularly preferred is a value of 0.24.
