Description

Technisches GebietTechnical area

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf das Gebiet der Abgasturbolader.The invention relates to the field of exhaust gas turbochargers.

Sie betrifft die Befestigung eines Schalldämpfers an einem Verdichtergehäuse, gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.It relates to the attachment of a muffler to a compressor housing, according to the preamble of claim 1.

Stand der TechnikState of the art

Abgasturbolader zur Aufladung von Verbrennungsmotoren weisen in den meisten Fällen beim Verdichtereintritt einen Filterschalldämpfer auf. Diese Schalldämpfer mit aufgesetztem Filter werden vorzugsweise mittels einem Befestigungsflansch starr mit dem Verdichtergehäuse verbunden. Eine solche Verbindung ist beispielsweise aus der EP 1 186 781 A1 , Fig. 1 ersichtlich.Exhaust gas turbochargers for supercharging internal combustion engines have in most cases at the compressor inlet on a filter silencer. These mufflers with attached filter are preferably rigidly connected by means of a mounting flange with the compressor housing. Such a connection is for example from the EP 1 186 781 A1 . Fig. 1 seen.

Der Abgasturbolader wird entweder direkt oder mittels einem speziellen Fuss auf der Motorkonsole befestigt. In den meisten Fällen ist die axiale Distanz zwischen Fuss und Schalldämpfer sehr gross. Durch Motorvibrationen kann der Schalldämpfer zu unzulässig grossen Schwingungen angeregt werden. Dies insbesondere dann, wenn die Eigenfrequenz des Schalldämpfers nur unwesentlich über jenen der Turboladerbefestigungen liegt. In diesem Fall treten beim Schalldämpfer unzulässige Schwingungsüberhöhungen auf.The turbocharger is attached either directly or by means of a special foot on the engine console. In most cases, the axial distance between foot and muffler is very large. Engine vibrations can cause the muffler to vibrate too high. This especially if the natural frequency of the muffler is only slightly above those of the turbocharger mounts. In this case, inadmissible vibration peaks occur at the silencer.

Kurze Darstellung der ErfindungBrief description of the invention

Der Erfindung liegt folglich die Aufgabe zugrunde, bei der Befestigung des Schalldämpfers am Verdichtergehäuse Massnahmen zu treffen, um unzulässige Schwingungsüberhöhungen des Schalldämpfers zu verhindern.The invention is therefore an object of the invention to take measures in the attachment of the muffler to the compressor housing to prevent inadmissible vibration peaks of the muffler.

Erfindungsgemäss wird diese Aufgabe mit einer Befestigung mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 1 gelöst.According to the invention this object is achieved with a fastening with the features of claim 1.

Der Schalldämpfer ist in einem ersten Verbindungsbereich mittels einem Befestigungselement starr am Verdichtergehäuse befestigt. In einem zweiten Verbindungsbereich liegt der Schalldämpfer mit einer Auflagefläche auf einer Auflagefläche am Verdichtergehäuse auf, wobei der Schalldämpfer durch die Auflage im zweiten Verbindungsbereich gegenüber der starren Befestigung im ersten Verbindungsbereich mit einer Vorspannung beaufschlagt ist.The muffler is rigidly secured to the compressor housing in a first connection region by means of a fastening element. In a second connection region of the muffler with a bearing surface on a bearing surface on the compressor housing, wherein the muffler is acted upon by the support in the second connection region relative to the rigid attachment in the first connection region with a bias.

Durch die Vorspannung wird die Eigenfrequenz des Schalldämpfers massiv angehoben. Weitere Vorteile ergeben sich aus den abhängigen Ansprüchen.Due to the bias, the natural frequency of the muffler is massively increased. Further advantages emerge from the dependent claims.

Weg zur Ausführung der ErfindungWay to carry out the invention

Fig. 1 zeigt einen Schnitt durch die Lufteintrittseite eines Abgasturboladers mit dem Verdichtergehäuse 2 und dem am Lufteintritt des Verdichters angeordneten Schalldämpfer 1. Nicht dargestellt ist das um eine Achse drehbar gelagerte Verdichterrad sowie die gesamte Turbinenseite des Abgasturboladers. Fig. 1 shows a section through the air inlet side of an exhaust gas turbocharger with the compressor housing 2 and arranged at the air inlet of the compressor muffler 1. Not shown is the rotatable about an axis mounted compressor wheel and the entire turbine side of the exhaust gas turbocharger.

Der Schalldämpfer umfasst einen Grundkörper, der mehrere radial angeordnete Schalldämmplatten 11 trägt. Die zu verdichtende Luft wird gemäss den Pfeilen in radialer Richtung über einen am Umfang des Schalldämpfers angeordneten Filter 15 und zwischen den Schalldämmplatten hindurch dem Lufteinlass des Verdichters zugeführt.The muffler comprises a base body which carries a plurality of radially arranged sound insulation panels 11. The air to be compressed is fed according to the arrows in the radial direction via a arranged on the circumference of the muffler filter 15 and between the soundproofing plates through the air inlet of the compressor.

Der Schalldämpfer ist mittels mehrerer, entlang dem Umfang verteilten Schrauben 3 oder anderer geeigneter Befestigungsmittel am Verdichtergehäuse befestigt. Die Schrauben fixieren den Schalldämpfer sowohl in axialer als auch in radialer Richtung bezüglich dem Verdichtergehäuse.The muffler is secured to the compressor housing by a plurality of circumferentially spaced bolts 3 or other suitable fasteners. The screws fix the muffler both in the axial and in the radial direction with respect to the compressor housing.

Zur Befestigung mittels der Schrauben weist der Schalldämpfer im radial äusseren Bereich der dem Verdichtergehäuse zugewandten Gehäusewand 14 einen Befestigungsflansch 12 auf. Das Verdichtergehäuse weist ebenfalls im radial äusseren Bereich einen entsprechenden Befestigungsflansch 22 auf.For fastening by means of the screws, the silencer has a fastening flange 12 in the radially outer region of the housing wall 14 facing the compressor housing. The compressor housing also has a corresponding mounting flange 22 in the radially outer region.

Im radial inneren Bereich der genannten Gehäusewand des Schalldämpfers ist ein Stützflansch 13 angeordnet. Über diesen Stützflansch wird der Schalldämpfer auf einem entsprechenden Stützflansch 23 am Verdichtergehäuse axial abgestützt.In the radially inner region of said housing wall of the muffler, a support flange 13 is arranged. About this support flange of the muffler is axially supported on a corresponding support flange 23 on the compressor housing.

Erfindungsgemäss ist der Stützflansch 13 des Schalldämpfers gegenüber dem Befestigungsflansch 12 axial vorgespannt. Beim Aufsetzen des Schalldämpfers auf das Verdichtergehäuse in axialer Richtung kommt es zuerst im Bereich der Stützflansche 13 und 23 zu einem Kontakt zwischen Schalldämpfer und Verdichtergehäuse. Im Kontaktbereich der Befestigungsflansche 12 und 22 besteht eine Lücke in axialer Richtung, welche erst durch das anschliessende Anziehen der Schrauben 3 geschlossen wird. Durch das Schliessen der Lücke wird das Gehäuse des Schalldämpfers zwischen Befestigungs- und Stützflansch erfindungsgemäss geringfügig verzogen und dadurch der Schalldämpfer mit der axialen Vorspannung beaufschlagt.According to the invention, the support flange 13 of the muffler is axially biased relative to the mounting flange 12. When mounting the muffler on the compressor housing in the axial direction, it comes first in the region of the support flanges 13 and 23 to a contact between the muffler and the compressor housing. In the contact region of the mounting flanges 12 and 22 there is a gap in the axial direction, which is closed only by the subsequent tightening of the screws 3. By closing the gap, the housing of the muffler between mounting and support flange according to the invention slightly warped and thereby applied to the muffler with the axial bias.

Die Abstützung unter Vorspannung hat einen Einfluss auf die Eigenfrequenz des Schalldämpfers. Entsprechend einem einseitig eingespannten Kragträger, dessen Eigenfrequenz sich erhöht, wenn er zusätzlich abgestützt wird, erhöht sich die Eigenfrequenz des erfindungsgemäss am Verdichtergehäuse befestigten Schalldämpfers. Die Eigenfrequenz des Schalldämpfers kann auf diese weise gegenüber herkömmlich befestigten Schalldämpfern um 30 bis 60% angehoben werden.The support under bias has an influence on the natural frequency of the muffler. According to a cantilevered Kragträger whose natural frequency increases when it is additionally supported, increases the natural frequency of the present invention mounted on the compressor housing muffler. The natural frequency of the muffler can be raised in this way compared to conventionally mounted mufflers by 30 to 60%.

Ausserdem verhindert die axiale Vorspannung ein Scheuern des Schalldämpfers an dem Verdichtergehäuse.In addition, the axial bias prevents chafing of the muffler to the compressor housing.

Fig. 2 a) bis k) zeigt eine Auswahl möglicher Ausführungsformen des in Fig. 1 gestrichelt eingekreisten Kontaktbereichs zwischen dem Stützflansch am Schalldämpfer 13 und dem Stützflansch am Verdichtergehäuse 23. Fig. 2 a) to k) shows a selection of possible embodiments of the in Fig. 1 Dashed circled contact area between the support flange on the muffler 13 and the support flange on the compressor housing 23rd

Gegenüber den in einer Ebene senkrecht zur Achse angeordneten Auflageflächen gemäss a) weisen die in b) und c) dargestellten konisch geformten Auflageflächen den Vorteil auf, dass sie bei der Montage des Schalldämpfers die Zentrierung des Schalldämpfers bezüglich dem Verdichtergehäuse erleichtern. Alle der ersten drei Ausführungsformen zeichnen sich zudem durch eine sehr einfache Herstellbarkeit aus.Compared with the arranged in a plane perpendicular to the axis bearing surfaces according to a), the conical shaped bearing surfaces shown in b) and c) have the advantage that they are in the assembly of the muffler, the centering of the muffler with respect to the compressor housing. All of the first three embodiments are also characterized by a very simple manufacturability.

Die Ausführungsformen d) bis i) weisen eine gute Dichtwirkung sowie eine gute Fügestellendämpfung auf. Es sind alles verschiedene radial gestufte Ausführungsformen mit unterschiedlich aufwändig herzustellenden Auflageflächen.The embodiments d) to i) have a good sealing effect and a good joint damping. They are all different radially stepped embodiments with different costly to produce support surfaces.

Um noch weiter verbesserte Dicht- und Dämpfungseigenschaft zu erhalten kann anstelle einer Stufe oder Nut/Kammverbindung wie in k) dargestellt in entsprechenden Nuten oder Halbrundnuten ein O-Dämpfungsring aus Elastomer oder einem anderen geeigneten Material axial verpresst werden.In order to obtain even further improved sealing and damping properties, instead of a step or groove / comb connection as shown in k) in corresponding grooves or half-round grooves, an O-damping ring made of elastomer or another suitable material can be pressed axially.

Bis auf die erste, einfachste Ausführungsform mit den senkrecht zur Achse angeordneten Auflageflächen weisen alle dargestellten Ausführungsformen einen Formschluss in radialer Richtung auf, was eine zusätzliche Stabilisierung von Schalldämpfer und Verdichtergehäuse zur Folge hat.Except for the first, simplest embodiment with the support surfaces arranged perpendicular to the axis, all embodiments shown have a positive connection in the radial direction, which results in additional stabilization of the muffler and compressor housing.
