Definitions
- the invention relates to a piston for an internal combustion engine and an internal combustion engine with a novel piston.
- the pistons of internal combustion engines are exposed to high thermal loads during operation.
- the pistons can be cooled by suitable measures. This is done essentially by the fact that the respective piston from the side of the crankcase forth with a cooling medium, usually oil, is applied.
- a cooling medium is at least over a certain period in contact with the piston material, so that it can absorb heat from this.
- the US 5,595,145 relates to a piston for an internal combustion engine, which has a largely circulating cooling chamber with an inlet opening and two drainage openings, which are interconnected by the cooling space.
- a piston is known in which a ring carrier is provided with a cooling channel plate, which may have a plurality of flats.
- the flats can be drilled to form inflows and outflows. Since the formed cooling channel is circumferential, in the case that two drainage holes are provided, they are connected to each other.
- the invention has for its object to provide a piston for an internal combustion engine and an internal combustion engine, which is improved in terms of the ability to provide reliable cooling.
- the piston has a cooling channel with a single inflow opening and at least two outflow openings. At least two of the discharge openings are separated with respect to the outflowing coolant. This is to be understood that there is no flow connection between them in the region of the discharge openings.
- the cooling medium which flows from the inflow opening via a corresponding channel section to a discharge opening which is fluidly separated from other outflow openings, can exit from this outflow opening unhindered. It does not occur that cooling medium flows out of different channel sections through one and the same outlet opening. Rather, each channel section or "sub-channel” at least one "own”, so only this channel section associated drain opening.
- a connection in the form of a preferably small passage can be provided in the region of the outflow openings.
- the coolant is not intended that flows through this passage coolant from the one cooling passage portion in the other cooling passage portion or to its drain port.
- the coolant is directed out of the respective cooling channel section to the respective outflow opening associated with this cooling channel section.
- the inflow opening can also be referred to as an inflow, an inflow, an inlet, inlet, inlet or inlet opening.
- the drain hole also be called just a drain or an outlet.
- the measure according to the invention provides the following advantages.
- the cooling effect depends inter alia on the residence time of the cooling medium in the cooling channel.
- the desired cooling effect can be matched to the cooling medium leaving the cooling channel after a certain residence time. According to the invention, this can be ensured particularly well by allowing the coolant jet to escape unhindered at the outflow opening.
- an undisturbed discharge of the coolant flow can take place in the piston according to the invention. This improves the cooling effect.
- the cooling of a piston can be improved by the piston according to the invention, in which the cooling channel consists of two sections of unequal length.
- the cooling channel consists of two sections of unequal length.
- the inlet opening can be arranged off-center.
- a central arrangement of the outlet openings to the effect that they are located above the piston pin, in particular between the pin bosses and the small connecting rod eye can be maintained.
- Such an arrangement is advantageous for the best possible lubrication of the articulated connection between the piston pin and the pin bosses or the connecting rod eye.
- the two outlet openings can be arranged in particular and advantageously to the left and right of the connecting rod, to provide here for an advantageous lubrication.
- This advantage can be realized in particular in the case of a coolant jet which runs largely parallel to the piston axis.
- a substantially circumferential cooling channel has at least one inflow opening and at least two outflow openings which are separated from one another with regard to the outflowing coolant.
- the cooling channel of the piston according to the invention is largely encircling. Although it is conceivable that only individual regions of the piston are cooled by the cooling channel designed according to the invention, it is preferable to provide two largely semicircular cooling channel sections. This means that the two outflow openings are arranged adjacent to one another but are separated from one another. As at this In some embodiments, no continuation of the orbiting design results, a cooling channel designed in this way will be described as substantially circumferential.
- At least one flow dividing element in the region of the inflow opening.
- This may be, for example, a rib or a bead, onto which flows the coolant stream supplied, for example, via a nozzle.
- the flow dividing element divides the coolant flow into the respective channel sections. Since, as mentioned, at least two channel sections each have their "own" discharge opening, an unhindered flow of the coolant can be ensured, and the subsequent flow of coolant is not hindered.
- the flow dividing element is preferably optimized by flow geometry such that the coolant flow can be divided into the at least two directions largely without turbulence losses.
- the flow dividing element is formed at the inflow such that at best causes gentle changes in direction, and abrupt changes in direction are avoided. As a result, flow losses and turbulence can be largely excluded.
- the measure according to the invention makes it possible for the cooling channel to have sections of unequal length. It has also been stated that this is advantageous with regard to the use of the supplied coolant jet. This can be achieved in particular by the preferred measure that the inflow opening is provided asymmetrically with respect to drainage openings. This is therefore preferred to allow a coolant jet which is substantially parallel to the piston axis and can be supplied at the entrance with particularly low losses.
- the piston according to the invention can be improved in addition to the improvement of the cooling with respect to the lubrication of the connection between the piston pin and the piston pin eyes or connecting rod eye.
- This can be achieved in that at least one outflow opening is directed in the direction of a piston pin eye.
- a preferably gentle deflection takes place in one direction away from the piston crown, or in the case of an ordinary orientation of the piston "downwards". Therefore, in this preferred embodiment, the exiting coolant jet is directed towards the piston pin and can provide beneficial lubrication.
- the desired deflection at the Drain opening so gently and without abrupt changes in direction done that the outlet of the coolant flow is largely unhindered and turbulence.
- the piston according to the invention is further combined with a piston pin and a connecting rod.
- a piston pin and a connecting rod With such a combination, particularly favorable lubrication conditions could be ascertained on the piston pin if at least one outflow opening is located in a region between a piston pin boss and the connecting rod eye, but typically at an edge of the piston.
- both the connection between the piston pin and the piston pin boss and the connection to the connecting rod eye can be efficiently lubricated by the exiting coolant flow.
- the piston according to the invention presents itself as being capable of being used independently. However, it develops its advantages in particular in the state in which it is installed in an internal combustion engine. In this respect, an internal combustion engine with at least one such piston is considered as the subject of the application.
- a coolant jet for the internal combustion engine designed in this way according to the invention, it is preferred for the efficient use of a coolant jet that it be a device for generating a coolant jet which is substantially parallel to the piston axis.
- a coolant jet which can be used advantageously in a piston according to the invention with an asymmetrically provided inflow opening, significantly lower losses result at the inflow opening than is the case for the arrangements with tilted coolant jet known in the prior art.
- the coolant jet is substantially parallel to the piston axis, this is not absolutely necessary. Rather, the coolant jet can also run in any manner obliquely or inclined to the piston axis.
- Fig. 1 shows schematically the cooling channel 10 of the piston according to the invention.
- This has essentially two semicircular cooling duct sections 12.1 and 12.2.
- the coolant flows into the cooling channel 10 through a single inlet opening 14, at which the coolant flow is divided by a flow dividing element 16, preferably in the form of a rib or a bead, into the two partial flows in the cooling channel sections 12.1 and 12.2.
- the flow dividing element 16 is optimized in terms of flow such that no abrupt but gentle changes in direction take place, and the flow losses and turbulences remain low.
- the coolant flow leaves the respective cooling channel section 12.1 or 12.2 by their own separate, only the respective cooling channel section associated drain opening 18.1 and 18.2.
- the walls required for the deflection are also designed to be so harmonious and optimized in terms of flow geometry that no abrupt changes in direction and turbulence occur. Rather, the coolant flow can escape from the respective outflow opening 18 largely unhindered. In particular, the two coolant streams do not interfere with each other due to the fluidic separation at the outlet.
- Fig. 1 It is understood that the representation is highly schematic, and usually neither the inflow nor the outflow "to the side" to or from the cooling channel 10 takes place. Rather, the cooling channel 10 is formed in a plane substantially perpendicular to the piston axis. The inflow and / or outflow is largely parallel to the Piston axis, ie from the bottom of the piston ago. This is in the schematic representation of Fig. 1 not recognizable, but goes out Fig. 2 out.
- Fig. 2 shows a piston 20 according to the invention from the underside, so that the one inflow opening 14 and the two discharge openings 18 can be seen.
- the flow dividing element 16 Approximately in the region of the center of the inflow opening 14 is the flow dividing element 16, which is in the form of a rib or bead. By flowing against the flow divider element 16 with the coolant jet, this is partially in the one 12.1 and the other cooling duct section 12.2 (see. Fig. 1 ).
- These sections 12 each extend approximately semicircular starting from the inflow opening 14 in the area above the in Fig. 2 to be recognized pin bosses 22.
- the cooling channel sections 12 each have their own drain opening 18.
- a deflection takes place "downwards", that is to say according to the illustration of FIG Fig. 2 in the direction of the viewer.
- the deflected in the direction of the piston pin coolant can be used advantageously for lubricating the connections between the piston pin and the piston pin bosses and the connecting rod.
- the "area between the piston pin eyes” is understood to mean the approximately strip-shaped area between the inflow opening 14 and the outflow opening 18.2. In this area, in particular on an edge of the piston, in the embodiment shown, at least the drain opening 18. 2 is located, so that the coolant jet issuing therefrom at least partially reaches the piston pin (not shown) inserted in the piston pin bosses 22.
- the inflow opening 14 is provided asymmetrically with respect to the outflow openings 18, and consequently that the cooling channel section is in the same direction as in FIG Fig. 1 left drain opening 18.1 is shorter than the other cooling passage section.
- the inflow opening 14 may also be arranged centrally between the piston pin bosses 22. Likewise, she may, unlike in Fig. 2 shown further provided offset in the direction of the piston pin bosses 22.
- Fig. 3 shows in a radial section of the piston 10, the two cooling duct sections 12.1 and 12.2. In the region of the common inflow opening 14, the flow dividing element 16 can be seen.
- Out Fig. 3 also shows that the cross section of the cooling channel sections 12.1, 12.2 is at least substantially constant over the extent of the respective section, so that the favorable and largely unhindered flow of the coolant is supported.
- the cross section remains constant, in particular starting from the point at which the flow dividing element 16 is inclined relative to the respective cooling channel section 12.1 or 12.2.
- the inflow opening 14 is off-center. This results from the fact that in the representation of Fig. 3 the piston is twisted slightly to the right, so that the inner surface of the left piston pin eye 22 can be seen.
- Fig. 4 In contrast, goes from the sectional view of Fig. 4 indicates that it is a view perpendicular to a (imaginary) piston pin axis.
- Fig. 4 It can be seen that in this view, the two drain holes 18.1 and 18.2 are symmetrical to each other, while from the comparison with the Fig. 3 shows that the inflow opening is provided asymmetrically.
- Fig. 4 It can also be seen that the two outlet openings 18.1 and 18.2 are indeed connected to each other by a small passage 24.

Description
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Kolben für einen Verbrennungsmotor sowie einen Verbrennungsmotor mit einem neuartigen Kolben.The invention relates to a piston for an internal combustion engine and an internal combustion engine with a novel piston.
Die Kolben von Verbrennungsmotoren sind im Betrieb hohen thermischen Belastungen ausgesetzt. Um zu hohe Temperaturen zu vermeiden, können die Kolben durch geeignete Maßnahmen gekühlt werden. Dies erfolgt im Wesentlichen dadurch, dass der jeweilige Kolben von der Seite des Kurbelgehäuses her mit einem Kühlmedium, üblicherweise Öl, beaufschlagt wird. Ein derartiges Kühlmedium ist zumindest über einen gewissen Zeitraum mit dem Kolbenmaterial in Berührung, so dass es Wärme von diesem aufnehmen kann. Dadurch, dass ein Abfließen des in dieser Weise aufgewärmten Kühlmediums gewährleistet wird, und ferner für ein Nachfließen von vergleichsweise kühlem Kühlmedium gesorgt wird, kann die Temperatur des Kolbens in einem sicheren Bereich gehalten werden.The pistons of internal combustion engines are exposed to high thermal loads during operation. In order to avoid too high temperatures, the pistons can be cooled by suitable measures. This is done essentially by the fact that the respective piston from the side of the crankcase forth with a cooling medium, usually oil, is applied. Such a cooling medium is at least over a certain period in contact with the piston material, so that it can absorb heat from this. By ensuring that the cooling medium which has been warmed up in this way drains off, and also ensures that relatively cool cooling medium flows after, the temperature of the piston can be kept in a safe range.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Kolben für einen Verbrennungsmotor sowie einen Verbrennungsmotor zu schaffen, der hinsichtlich der Möglichkeit, für eine zuverlässige Kühlung zu sorgen, verbessert ist.The invention has for its object to provide a piston for an internal combustion engine and an internal combustion engine, which is improved in terms of the ability to provide reliable cooling.
Die Lösung dieser Aufgabe erfolgt durch den im Anspruch 1 beschriebenen Kolben.The solution to this problem is achieved by the piston described in claim 1.
Demzufolge weist der Kolben einen Kühlkanal mit einer einzigen Zuflussöffnung und zumindest zwei Abflussöffnungen auf. Von den Abflussöffnungen sind zumindest zwei im Hinblick auf das ausströmende Kühlmittel voneinander getrennt. Dies ist so zu verstehen, dass im Bereich der Abflussöffnungen keine Strömungsverbindung zwischen diesen besteht. Vielmehr kann das Kühlmedium, das von der Zuflussöffnung über einen entsprechenden Kanalabschnitt zu einer, von anderen Abflussöffnungen strömungstechnisch getrennten Abflussöffnung strömt, ungehindert aus dieser Abflussöffnung austreten. Es tritt nicht der Fall auf, dass Kühlmedium aus unterschiedlichen Kanalabschnitten durch ein und dieselbe Abflussöffnung ausströmt. Vielmehr weist jeder Kanalabschnitt oder "Teilkanal" zumindest eine "eigene", also nur diesem Kanalabschnitt zugeordnete Abflussöffnung auf. Insbesondere kann im Bereich der Abflussöffnungen eine Verbindung in Form eines vorzugsweise kleinen Durchganges vorgesehen sein. Es ist jedoch nicht vorgesehen, dass durch diesen Durchgang Kühlmittel aus dem einen Kühlkanalabschnitt in den anderen Kühlkanalabschnitt oder zu dessen Abflussöffnung strömt. Vielmehr wird durch geeignete Gestaltung der Wandungen im Bereich der jeweiligen Abflussöffnung das Kühlmittel aus dem jeweiligen Kühlkanalabschnitt zu der jeweiligen, diesem Kühlkanalabschnitt zugeordneten Abflussöffnung gelenkt. Hierdurch wird in vorteilhafter Weise eine Beeinflussung und Störung des Kühlmittelabflusses in dem jeweils anderen Kühlkanalabschnitt vermieden. Die Zuflussöffnung kann auch als ein Zufluss, ein Zulauf, eine Zulauf-, Zutritts-, Einlauf- oder Eintrittsöffnung bezeichnet werden. Ebenso könnte die Abflussöffnung auch lediglich ein Abfluss oder eine Austrittsöffnung genannt werden.As a result, the piston has a cooling channel with a single inflow opening and at least two outflow openings. At least two of the discharge openings are separated with respect to the outflowing coolant. This is to be understood that there is no flow connection between them in the region of the discharge openings. On the contrary, the cooling medium, which flows from the inflow opening via a corresponding channel section to a discharge opening which is fluidly separated from other outflow openings, can exit from this outflow opening unhindered. It does not occur that cooling medium flows out of different channel sections through one and the same outlet opening. Rather, each channel section or "sub-channel" at least one "own", so only this channel section associated drain opening. In particular, in the region of the outflow openings, a connection in the form of a preferably small passage can be provided. However, it is not intended that flows through this passage coolant from the one cooling passage portion in the other cooling passage portion or to its drain port. Rather, by appropriate design of the walls in the region of the respective outflow opening, the coolant is directed out of the respective cooling channel section to the respective outflow opening associated with this cooling channel section. As a result, influencing and disturbing the coolant outflow in the respective other cooling channel section is avoided in an advantageous manner. The inflow opening can also be referred to as an inflow, an inflow, an inlet, inlet, inlet or inlet opening. As well could the drain hole also be called just a drain or an outlet.
Die erfindungsgemäße Maßnahme sorgt für die folgenden Vorteile. Die Kühlwirkung ist unter anderem von der Verweildauer des Kühlmediums in dem Kühlkanal abhängig. Insbesondere kann die gewünschte Kühlwirkung darauf abgestimmt sein, dass das Kühlmedium nach einer bestimmten Verweildauer den Kühlkanal verlässt. Dies kann erfindungsgemäß besonders gut dadurch gewährleistet werden, dass an der Abflussöffnung ein ungehindertes Austreten des Kühlmittelstrahls möglich ist. Im Gegensatz zu einer Situation, in der sich zwei Kühlmittelströme an einer Abflussöffnung vereinigen und gegenseitig beeinflussen, kann bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Kolben ein ungestörter Austritt des Kühlmittelstromes erfolgen. Dies verbessert die Kühlwirkung.The measure according to the invention provides the following advantages. The cooling effect depends inter alia on the residence time of the cooling medium in the cooling channel. In particular, the desired cooling effect can be matched to the cooling medium leaving the cooling channel after a certain residence time. According to the invention, this can be ensured particularly well by allowing the coolant jet to escape unhindered at the outflow opening. In contrast to a situation in which two coolant flows combine at a discharge opening and influence one another, an undisturbed discharge of the coolant flow can take place in the piston according to the invention. This improves the cooling effect.
Insbesondere kann durch den erfindungsgemäßen Kolben auch die Kühlung eines Kolbens verbessert werden, bei dem der Kühlkanal aus zwei ungleich langen Abschnitten besteht. Durch die Auf- und Ab-Bewegung des Kolbens entsteht nämlich in dem Kühlkanal ein gepulster Durchfluss. Somit kann die Druckwelle des kürzeren Kühlkanalabschnitts die Abflussöffnung vor der Druckwelle des längeren Abschnitts erreichen, und das Austreten des Kühlmittelstromes aus dem längeren Abschnitt behindern. In diesem längeren Abschnitt entsteht somit eine längere Verweildauer des Kühlmittels und eine Verschlechterung der Kühlung. Die erfindungsgemäße Maßnahme schafft in einer derartigen Situation eine wirksame Abhilfe und ermöglicht insbesondere eine effiziente Kühlung auch in einem Fall, in dem ein Kühlkanal zwei ungleich lange Abschnitte aufweist. Zusammenfassend werden ein Rückstau oder Verwirbelungen am Austritt der Kühlmittelströme verhindert.In particular, the cooling of a piston can be improved by the piston according to the invention, in which the cooling channel consists of two sections of unequal length. By the up and down movement of the piston namely creates a pulsed flow in the cooling channel. Thus, the pressure wave of the shorter cooling passage portion can reach the discharge port before the pressure wave of the longer portion, and hinder the leakage of the coolant flow from the longer portion. In this longer section thus creates a longer residence time of the coolant and a deterioration of the cooling. The inventive measure provides an effective remedy in such a situation and in particular allows efficient cooling even in a case in which a cooling channel has two sections of unequal length. In summary, a backflow or turbulence at the outlet of the coolant streams are prevented.
Ferner hat sich bei Untersuchungen herausgestellt, dass durch die erfindungsgemäße Maßnahme ein nahezu laminarer Durchfluss des Kühlmittels, insbesondere des Kühlöls erreicht werden kann, was für den Wärmeübergang äußerst günstig ist.Furthermore, it has been found in investigations that a virtually laminar flow of the coolant, in particular of the cooling oil can be achieved by the measure according to the invention, which is extremely favorable for the heat transfer.
In diesem Zusammenhang ergibt sich außerdem der Vorteil, dass aufgrund der Möglichkeit, ungleich lange Kanalabschnitte vorzusehen und dennoch für eine effiziente Kühlung zu sorgen, die Zuflussöffnung außermittig angeordnet werden kann. Hierbei kann jedoch eine dahingehend mittige Anordnung der Austrittsöffnungen derart, dass sie sich über den Kolbenbolzen, insbesondere zwischen den Bolzennaben und dem kleinen Pleuelauge befinden, beibehalten werden. Eine derartige Anordnung ist für eine bestmögliche Schmierung der gelenkigen Verbindung zwischen dem Kolbenbolzen und den Bolzennaben bzw. dem Pleuelauge vorteilhaft. Die beiden Austrittsöffnungen können insbesondere und in vorteilhafter Weise links und rechts des Pleuelauges angeordnet sein, um hier für eine vorteilhafte Schmierung zu sorgen. Dieser Vorteil kann insbesondere bei einem Kühlmittelstrahl verwirklicht werden, der weitgehend parallel zur Kolbenachse verläuft. Demgegenüber ist es im Stand der Technik bekannt, einen geneigten Kühlmittelstrahl zu verwenden, der, je nach Position des Kolbens im Rahmen der Auf-Ab-Richtung, in eine von zwei Zufluss- oder Eintrittsöffnungen eintritt. Auch in einem solchen Fall wird der Kühlmittelstrahl in einzelne Kanalabschnitte aufgeteilt. Es kommt jedoch in wesentlich größerem Umfang, bis zu 20%, zu einem ungenutzten "Verspritzen" des Öles an der Teilungsrippe zwischen den beiden Eintrittsöffnungen. Demgegenüber kann der erfindungsgemäß mögliche, weitgehend parallel zur Kolbenachse vorgesehene Kühlmittelstrahl vollständig genutzt werden, da er, unabhängig von der Auf-Ab-Bewegung des Kolbens, immer an der gleichen Stelle auf eine fließgeometrisch optimierte Teilungsrippe auftreffen kann. Damit kann der Kühlmittelstrahl, weitgehend ohne Verluste, in zwei oder mehr Kanalabschnitte aufgeteilt werden, die unterschiedlich lang sein können.In this context, there is also the advantage that due to the ability to provide unequal length channel sections and yet to provide for efficient cooling, the inlet opening can be arranged off-center. In this case, however, a central arrangement of the outlet openings to the effect that they are located above the piston pin, in particular between the pin bosses and the small connecting rod eye, can be maintained. Such an arrangement is advantageous for the best possible lubrication of the articulated connection between the piston pin and the pin bosses or the connecting rod eye. The two outlet openings can be arranged in particular and advantageously to the left and right of the connecting rod, to provide here for an advantageous lubrication. This advantage can be realized in particular in the case of a coolant jet which runs largely parallel to the piston axis. In contrast, it is known in the art to use an inclined coolant jet, which, depending on the position of the piston in the up-down direction, enters one of two inflow or inlet openings. Even in such a case, the coolant jet is divided into individual channel sections. However, it comes to a much greater extent, up to 20%, to an unused "squirting" of the oil at the dividing rib between the two inlet openings. In contrast, the present invention possible, largely provided parallel to the piston axis coolant jet can be fully used because he, regardless of the up-down movement of the piston, always on the same place can impinge on a flow geometrically optimized dividing rib. Thus, the coolant jet, largely without losses, can be divided into two or more channel sections, which can be of different lengths.
Es ist ergänzend zu erwähnen, dass eine gegenüber dem Stand der Technik neue und die erfindungsgemäßen Vorteile erzielende Merkmalskombination darin gesehen werden kann, dass ein weitgehend umlaufender Kühlkanal zumindest eine Zuflussöffnung und zumindest zwei Abflussöffnungen aufweist, die im Hinblick auf das ausströmende Kühlmittel voneinander getrennt sind. Durch einen mit diesen Merkmalen versehenen Kolben können ebenfalls Verbesserungen gegenüber dem Stand der Technik erreicht werden. Dies gilt ferner für einen Kolben, dessen Kühlkanal zumindest eine Zuflussöffnung aufweist, an die sich zumindest zwei Kanalabschnitte mit jeweils einer einzigen, nur dem jeweiligen Kanalabschnitt zugeordneten Abflussöffnung anschließen. Diese zuletzt beschriebenen Ausführungsformen sind als Gegenstand der Anmeldung anzusehen und können insbesondere mit sämtlichen vorangehend und nachfolgend genannten Merkmalen kombiniert werden.In addition, it should be mentioned that a feature combination which is novel over the prior art and achieves the advantages according to the invention can be seen in that a substantially circumferential cooling channel has at least one inflow opening and at least two outflow openings which are separated from one another with regard to the outflowing coolant. By providing a piston provided with these features, improvements over the prior art can also be achieved. This also applies to a piston whose cooling channel has at least one inflow opening, to which connect at least two channel sections, each with a single, only the respective channel section associated discharge opening. These last described embodiments are to be regarded as the subject matter of the application and can in particular be combined with all the features mentioned above and below.
Darüber hinaus ist der Kühlkanal des erfindungsgemäßen Kolbens weitgehend umlaufend ausgebildet. Wenngleich denkbar ist, dass durch den erfindungsgemäß gestalteten Kühlkanal lediglich einzelne Bereiche des Kolbens gekühlt werden, wird bevorzugt, zwei weitgehend halbkreisförmige Kühlkanalabschnitte vorzusehen. Dies bedeutet, dass die beiden Abflussöffnungen zueinander benachbart angeordnet sind, jedoch voneinander getrennt sind. Da sich an dieser Stelle bei bestimmten Ausführungsformen keine Fortsetzung der umlaufenden Gestaltung ergibt, wird ein in dieser Weise gestalteter Kühlkanal als weitgehend umlaufend beschrieben.In addition, the cooling channel of the piston according to the invention is largely encircling. Although it is conceivable that only individual regions of the piston are cooled by the cooling channel designed according to the invention, it is preferable to provide two largely semicircular cooling channel sections. This means that the two outflow openings are arranged adjacent to one another but are separated from one another. As at this In some embodiments, no continuation of the orbiting design results, a cooling channel designed in this way will be described as substantially circumferential.
Bevorzugte Weiterbildungen des erfindungsgemäßen Kolbens sind in den weiteren Ansprüchen beschrieben.Preferred developments of the piston according to the invention are described in the further claims.
Für Strömungsverhältnisse, die im Hinblick auf den Wärmeübergang besonders effizient sind, hat es sich als vorteilhaft erwiesen, im Bereich der Zuflussöffnung zumindest ein Strömungsteilungselement vorzusehen. Hierbei kann es sich beispielsweise um eine Rippe oder eine Wulst handeln, auf welche der beispielsweise über eine Düse zugeführte Kühlmittelstrom strömt. Das Strömungsteilungselement teilt den Kühlmittelstrom in die jeweiligen Kanalabschnitte auf. Da, wie erwähnt, zumindest zwei Kanalabschnitte ihre jeweils "eigene" Abflussöffnung aufweisen, kann ein ungehindertes Strömen des Kühlmittels gewährleistet werden, und das Nachströmen von Kühlmittel wird nicht behindert. Das Strömungsteilungselement ist bevorzugt fließgeometrisch derart optimiert, dass der Kühlmittelstrom in die zumindest zwei Richtungen weitgehend ohne Verwirbelungsverluste aufgeteilt werden kann. Bevorzugt ist das Strömungsteilungselement an dem Zufluss derart ausgebildet, dass allenfalls sanfte Richtungsänderungen bewirkt, und abrupte Richtungsänderungen vermieden werden. Hierdurch können Strömungsverluste und Verwirbelungen weitgehend ausgeschlossen werden.For flow conditions that are particularly efficient in terms of heat transfer, it has proved to be advantageous to provide at least one flow dividing element in the region of the inflow opening. This may be, for example, a rib or a bead, onto which flows the coolant stream supplied, for example, via a nozzle. The flow dividing element divides the coolant flow into the respective channel sections. Since, as mentioned, at least two channel sections each have their "own" discharge opening, an unhindered flow of the coolant can be ensured, and the subsequent flow of coolant is not hindered. The flow dividing element is preferably optimized by flow geometry such that the coolant flow can be divided into the at least two directions largely without turbulence losses. Preferably, the flow dividing element is formed at the inflow such that at best causes gentle changes in direction, and abrupt changes in direction are avoided. As a result, flow losses and turbulence can be largely excluded.
Bei Versuchen hat sich herausgestellt, dass bereits durch die vorangehend beschriebenen Maßnahmen eine besonders verlustarme und im Hinblick auf den Wärmeübergang effiziente Kühlmittelströmung gewährleistet werden kann. Eine weitere Verbesserung kann jedoch durch die bevorzugte Maßnahme erreicht werden, wonach im Bereich zumindest eines Kühlkanalabschnitts zwischen der Zuflussöffnung und der jeweiligen Abflussöffnung ein zumindest weitgehend konstanter Querschnitt vorgesehen ist. Hierdurch können die Strömungsverhältnisse weiter verbessert werden.In experiments it has been found that already by the measures described above, a particularly low-loss and efficient in terms of heat transfer coolant flow can be ensured. Another However, improvement can be achieved by the preferred measure, according to which an at least substantially constant cross section is provided in the region of at least one cooling channel section between the inflow opening and the respective outflow opening. As a result, the flow conditions can be further improved.
Wie oben erwähnt, ermöglicht die erfindungsgemäße Maßnahme, dass der Kühlkanal ungleich lange Abschnitte aufweist. Es wurde ebenfalls ausgeführt, dass dies im Hinblick auf die Nutzung des zugeführten Kühlmittelstrahles vorteilhaft ist. Dies kann insbesondere durch diejenige bevorzugte Maßnahme erreicht werden, dass die Zuflussöffnung bezüglich Abflussöffnungen asymmetrisch vorgesehen ist. Dies wird deshalb bevorzugt, um einen Kühlmittelstrahl zu ermöglichen, der weitgehend parallel zu der Kolbenachse ist, und am Eintritt mit besonders geringen Verlusten zugeführt werden kann.As mentioned above, the measure according to the invention makes it possible for the cooling channel to have sections of unequal length. It has also been stated that this is advantageous with regard to the use of the supplied coolant jet. This can be achieved in particular by the preferred measure that the inflow opening is provided asymmetrically with respect to drainage openings. This is therefore preferred to allow a coolant jet which is substantially parallel to the piston axis and can be supplied at the entrance with particularly low losses.
Durch besondere Maßnahmen kann der erfindungsgemäße Kolben zusätzlich zu der Verbesserung der Kühlung auch im Hinblick auf die Schmierung der Verbindung zwischen Kolbenbolzen und Kolbenbolzenaugen bzw. Pleuelauge verbessert werden. Dies lässt sich dadurch erreichen, dass zumindest eine Abflussöffnung in Richtung eines Kolbenbolzenauges gerichtet ist. Mit anderen Worten erfolgt an der Abflussöffnung eine bevorzugt sanfte Umlenkung in einer Richtung von dem Kolbenboden weg, oder bei einer gewöhnlichen Ausrichtung des Kolbens "nach unten". Deshalb ist bei dieser bevorzugten Ausführungsform der austretende Kühlmittelstrahl in Richtung des Kolbenbolzens gerichtet und kann hier für eine vorteilhafte Schmierung sorgen. Auch an dieser Stelle kann in vorteilhafter Weise die gewünschte Umlenkung an der Abflussöffnung derart sanft und ohne abrupte Richtungswechsel erfolgen, dass der Austritt des Kühlmittelstromes weitgehend ungehindert und verwirbelungsfrei ist.By special measures, the piston according to the invention can be improved in addition to the improvement of the cooling with respect to the lubrication of the connection between the piston pin and the piston pin eyes or connecting rod eye. This can be achieved in that at least one outflow opening is directed in the direction of a piston pin eye. In other words, at the outflow opening, a preferably gentle deflection takes place in one direction away from the piston crown, or in the case of an ordinary orientation of the piston "downwards". Therefore, in this preferred embodiment, the exiting coolant jet is directed towards the piston pin and can provide beneficial lubrication. Also at this point can advantageously the desired deflection at the Drain opening so gently and without abrupt changes in direction done that the outlet of the coolant flow is largely unhindered and turbulence.
Es wird ferner bevorzugt, zumindest eine Abflussöffnung in einem Bereich zwischen den Kolbenbolzenaugen, wenngleich üblicherweise an den Rand versetzt, vorzusehen. Hierdurch kann im Hinblick auf eine besonders effiziente Schmierung des Kolbenbolzens eine günstige Lenkung des Kühlmittelstrahles auf die zu schmierenden Bereiche erfolgen.It is further preferred to provide at least one outflow opening in a region between the piston pin bosses, although usually offset to the edge. In this way, with regard to a particularly efficient lubrication of the piston pin, a favorable steering of the coolant jet to the areas to be lubricated can take place.
Bevorzugt wird der erfindungsgemäße Kolben ferner mit einem Kolbenbolzen und einem Pleuel kombiniert. Bei einer derartigen Kombination konnten besonders günstige Schmierungsverhältnisse an dem Kolbenbolzen festgestellt werden, wenn sich zumindest eine Abflussöffnung in einem Bereich zwischen einem Kolbenbolzenauge und dem Pleuelauge, typischerweise jedoch an einem Rand des Kolbens, befindet. Hierdurch kann durch den austretenden Kühlmittelstrom sowohl die Verbindung zwischen Kolbenbolzen und Kolbenbolzenauge als auch die Verbindung zu dem Pleuelauge effizient geschmiert werden.Preferably, the piston according to the invention is further combined with a piston pin and a connecting rod. With such a combination, particularly favorable lubrication conditions could be ascertained on the piston pin if at least one outflow opening is located in a region between a piston pin boss and the connecting rod eye, but typically at an edge of the piston. As a result, both the connection between the piston pin and the piston pin boss and the connection to the connecting rod eye can be efficiently lubricated by the exiting coolant flow.
Grundsätzlich stellt sich der erfindungsgemäße Kolben als selbständig verkehrsfähig dar. Er entfaltet jedoch seine Vorteile insbesondere in dem Zustand, in dem er in einen Verbrennungsmotor eingebaut wird. Insofern wird als Gegenstand der Anmeldung auch ein Verbrennungsmotor mit zumindest einem derartigen Kolben angesehen.In principle, the piston according to the invention presents itself as being capable of being used independently. However, it develops its advantages in particular in the state in which it is installed in an internal combustion engine. In this respect, an internal combustion engine with at least one such piston is considered as the subject of the application.
Für den in dieser Weise erfindungsgemäß gestalteten Verbrennungsmotor wird es für die effiziente Nutzung eines Kühlmittelstrahles bevorzugt, dass dieser eine Einrichtung zur Erzeugung eines Kühlmittelstrahles aufweist, der weitgehend parallel zu der Kolbenachse verläuft. Durch einen derartigen Kühlmittelstrahl, der in vorteilhafter Weise bei einem erfindungsgemäßen Kolben mit asymmetrisch vorgesehener Zuflussöffnung verwendet werden kann, ergeben sich an der Zuflussöffnung deutlich geringere Verluste als dies für die im Stand der Technik bekannten Anordnungen mit geneigtem Kühlmittelstrahl der Fall ist. Wenngleich es, wie oben erwähnt, vorteilhaft ist, wenn der Kühlmittelstrahl weitgehend parallel zur Kolbenachse verläuft, ist dies nicht unbedingt erforderlich. Vielmehr kann der Kühlmittelstrahl auch in beliebiger Weise schräg oder geneigt zur Kolbenachse verlaufen.For the internal combustion engine designed in this way according to the invention, it is preferred for the efficient use of a coolant jet that it be a device for generating a coolant jet which is substantially parallel to the piston axis. By means of such a coolant jet, which can be used advantageously in a piston according to the invention with an asymmetrically provided inflow opening, significantly lower losses result at the inflow opening than is the case for the arrangements with tilted coolant jet known in the prior art. Although it is advantageous, as mentioned above, when the coolant jet is substantially parallel to the piston axis, this is not absolutely necessary. Rather, the coolant jet can also run in any manner obliquely or inclined to the piston axis.
