Definitions

  • the invention relates to a switchable as a cam follower or support member for a cam follower switchable component of a valve engine of an internal combustion engine, with a hollow cylindrical housing which is telescopically mated with a relatively movable inner element, which inner element a transverse bore as a radial bore with at least one decoupling case [smaller or 0-valve lift] running therein and acted upon by a restoring means coupling slide is immanent in the coupling case [full valve lift] via a Zustellstoff in sections in a recess of the housing with a driver surface is displaceable and wherein between the housing and inner member acts a return spring.
  • Such a component designed here as a roller tappet for a ram rod drive, goes out of the US 6,578,535 out.
  • the end FIG. 2 apparent housing is made by extrusion technology and post-machined.
  • the coupling slide extend in a radial bore of the inner member and can for a coupling case in an annular groove in the inner shell of the housing sections be extended. The annular groove is machined out of the inner jacket.
  • the object of the invention is therefore to provide a component of the type described, in which the cited disadvantages are eliminated.
  • this object is achieved in that the recess of the housing is formed by two axially opposite Ringstirnen on one of which the Mit supportive utilitarian utilitarian utilitarian sake is formed, each annular end end component of a separate, thin-walled and tube-like portion, each with its outer shell sections an inner shell of the housing is fixed.
  • a component switchable or disconnectable type is intended to a valve drive part as a roller tappet, a bucket tappet or a support element.
  • this component may also be applied as a switching part in a lever-like cam follower.
  • the components are, for example, deep-drawn, wherein necessary recesses can be punched.
  • the sheet metal components may also consist of thin-walled pipe parts.
  • a particular advantage of the invention is also that it is possible to dispense with an anti-rotation lock from inner element to housing, so that reduced production costs can be expected here.
  • annular space for supplying servo means (preferably hydraulic means) is created in front of lecturstirnen the preferred two coupling slide for their displacement in Entkoppeleuros in a simple manner.
  • the housing preferably has a plurality of circumferentially distributed passages for the servo means (hydraulic means), so that it can be dispensed with its directed installation in the corresponding surrounding construction.
  • the servo means hydraulic means
  • An at least largely “smooth" contact surface can also be created by attaching a separate insert to the inner jacket of the respective tube-like section, the section of which bears against the inner jacket of the housing, at the bore of which the coupling pistons are guided with their outer forks in the decoupling case.
  • Another subclaim relates to a specification of the component. Accordingly, this should be designed as a support element with hydraulic clearance compensation, which may be waived if necessary on the hydraulic play compensation function.
  • the necessary return spring for the decoupling case (lost-motion spring) encloses an outer jacket of the component and rests with its one end on a radially inwardly directed collar of the housing. With its other end, it acts against an outgoing from the outer shell of the inner element in the region of the head stop plates.
  • stop member may protrude integrally from the inner member, it is more appropriate here to apply a separate thin-walled sheet metal part, which rests with its upper bore portion on a stop element such as a locking ring on the outer surface of the inner element.
  • the housing is open on the bottom side. Thus, it can be easier to produce.
  • On the other hand is another post in Towards reduced mass.
  • the floor has at least one crown-like recess, which serves as a vent opening. This prevents an air cushion from building up during a decoupling movement of the inner element directed towards the floor.
  • the inner member may be provided on its outer shell with a securing element such as a polygon ring which rests against a bottom of the inwardly directed collar of the housing in case of attack.
  • the component 1 has a hollow cylindrical, thin-walled housing 2 made of sheet metal.
  • the housing 2 extends axially movable relative to this an inner element 3. This dominates with his head 44, the housing 2.
  • On the head 44 can be stored at one end a cam-operated rocker arm.
  • the latter has a diametrically opposed coupling slide 6.
  • These latter have generally cylindrical geometry and have, starting from the outer bulges 20, partially flattened coupling regions 31 on their undersides. Radially outwardly the coupling slide 6 are acted upon by the force of a voltage applied to the inner end stops 18 Zustellstoffs 7. As a delivery 7 a helical compression spring is provided. Radially inward, i. in Entkoppelcardi, the coupling slide 6 are acted upon by a return means 5. This is designed as a hydraulic medium.
  • the lower tubular portion 13 is partially with its outer shell 15 to the inner shell 17 of the housing 2 firmly.
  • the lower tubular portion 13 merges into a radially inwardly directed offset 23. This is continued radially inward in a second, spaced from the housing portion 25.
  • the latter has at its (lower) annular end 11 a driving surface 9 for the coupling region 31 of the coupling slide.
  • the section 22 merges into a radially inwardly directed crank 24 which is continued radially inward in a second section 26 axially spaced from the housing 2.
  • the second section 26 has an (upper) annular end 12.
  • FIG. 1 reveals a coupling state of the component 1.
  • the coupling slide 6 with pressure off hydraulic means (return means 5) via the force of their Zustellstoffs 7 radially expanded so that their underlying coupling portions 31 are partially on the annular cam surface 9 of the lower tubular portion 13.
  • the inner element 3 is decoupled from the housing 2, so that ultimately the corresponding gas exchange valve remains closed, the pressure is increased to hydraulic fluid in the annular space 19 at Nockengrund réelle belauf so far that the coupling slide 6 are displaced against the force of its Zustellstoffs 7 in its transverse bore 4. With cam start thus the inner element 3 is displaced into the housing 2 (see FIG. 3 ). In this case slide the coupling slide 6 with its outer forehead 32 on an inner side 34 of the lower tubular portion 13. As well FIG. 3 shows, the aforementioned lower portion 13 may also be formed as a relatively thick-walled cylinder part o. The like.
  • the housing 2 is in its upper region in a radially inwardly directed collar 38, which is continued radially inward in a guide portion 43 which extends directly on the outer casing 27 of the inner member 3.
  • a thin-walled stop plate 45 Located in the region of a head 44 of the inner member 3 extends on the outer shell 27 of the inner member 3, a thin-walled stop plate 45.
  • a return spring 10 lost motion spring
  • the upper tubular portion 14 thus includes a further annular space 40 for separately introduced hydraulic means, from which annular space 40 the hydraulic fluid is directed in a manner not to be described in more detail to the clearance compensation device 41.
  • the housing 2 is provided with an open bottom 46.
  • a lower annular end 48 of the housing 2 has at least one vent opening 47, which is present here as a crown-like material recess.
  • a stop member 49 which is formed here as a polygon ring. This stop element 49 limits an extension movement of the inner element 3 out of the housing 2. In the installation case, it may be inoperative.
  • FIG. 5 it is according to FIG. 5 provided on the outer casing 27 of the inner member 3 to apply two superimposed locking rings 51.
  • the inner element 3 thus strikes, over an upper side of the upper locking ring 51, in the Ausfahrfall to an underside of the crank 23 of the lower tubular portion 13 at.
  • About variable thickness reserved lower retaining rings 51 can be set in a conventional manner, a coupling play.
