  • the impact wall 7 has a plurality of projections 9 on an inner circumferential wall surface thereof which linearly extend along the projecting direction (i.e., an axial direction of the impact wall 7), that is, along an up-and-down direction in FIG. 2 .
  • the lower casing 3 is made of a resin material and includes a flat plate-shaped base wall 10 that cooperates with the upper wall 5 of the upper casing 2 to define the space 4 therebetween, a lower casing-side cylindrical volume chamber 11 having one axial end portion 11a from which the blow-by gas is introduced into the space 4, and a cylindrical oil drain portion 12 from which the oil separated from the blow-by gas is drained to an outside of the oil mist separator 100.

  • the one axial end portion 11a is disposed on the side of an upper end of the lower casing-side volume chamber 11 as shown in FIG. 2 .
  • the one axial end portion 11a is covered with a valve body 15.
  • the valve body 15 is made of a resin material and formed into a cylindrical shape having one closed end.
  • the valve body 15 includes a circular bottom wall 16 that covers one axial end face of the lower casing-side volume chamber 11 (i.e., one axial end face of the volume chamber 14).
  • the valve body 15 also includes a tubular side wall 17 that covers an outer circumferential surface of a side wall of the one axial end portion 11a of the lower casing-side volume chamber 11 (i.e., an outer circumferential surface of one axial end portion of the volume chamber 14), and a cylindrical valve stem 18 that is disposed at a central portion of the bottom wall 16.
  • the valve stem 18 is inserted into an insertion hole 20 of a valve body supporting portion 19 and projected from the valve body supporting portion 19 into an inside space of the lower casing-side volume chamber 11.
  • the valve body supporting portion 19 is disposed at a center of an end face (one axial end face) of the one axial end portion 11a of the lower casing-side volume chamber 11.

  • a retainer 22 is mounted to the valve stem 18 and holds a spring 23 that is made of a metal material.
  • the spring 23 is installed between the retainer 22 and a lower surface of the valve body supporting portion 19 and serves as a biasing member which always biases the valve body 15 toward the end face of the one axial end portion 11a of the lower casing-side volume chamber 11. That is, the spring 23 always biases in such a direction as to close apertures formed on the end face of the one axial end portion 11a of the lower casing-side volume chamber 11 (i.e., in such a direction that the bottom wall 16 of the valve body 15 approaches the one axial end face of the lower casing-side volume chamber 11).
  • the one axial end portion 11a of the lower casing-side volume chamber 11 is provided at the periphery thereof with a plurality of elliptic through holes 25 which are arranged in a circumferential direction of the lower casing-side volume chamber 11 at constant intervals therebetween.

  • the through holes 25 are partly covered with the side wall 17 of the valve body 15, respectively.
  • the through holes 25 have a same length which extends in the axial direction of the lower casing-side volume chamber 11 (i.e., in the up-and-down direction in FIG. 2 and FIG. 4 ) and is longer than an axial length of the side wall 17 of the valve body 15.
  • the through holes 25 formed in the one axial end portion 11a of the lower casing-side volume chamber 11 and the side wall 17 of the valve body 15 cooperate with each other to define six communication passages 26 which allow fluid communication between the inside space of the lower casing-side volume chamber 11 and the space 4 defined between the upper casing 2 and the lower casing 3.
  • the communication passages 26 are arranged in the circumferential direction of the lower casing-side volume chamber 11 at constant intervals therebetween.
  • blow-by gas introduced into the volume chamber 14 passes through the communication passages 26 and flows into a space between the lower casing-side volume chamber 11 and the impact wall 7.
  • the flow of blow-by gas then impacts against the inner circumferential wall surface of the impact wall 7 which is opposed to the communication passages 26.
  • the provision of the projections 9 on the inner circumferential wall surface of the impact wall 7 allows the flow of blow-by gas to be impacted against the irregular inner circumferential wall surface of the impact wall 7, so that separation of oil mist present in the blow-by gas from the blow-by gas can be promoted.
  • the blow-by gas free from the oil component passes through the clearance between the impact wall 7 and the lower casing 3 and then flows into the blow-by gas discharging portion 8.
  • the oil component separated from the blow-by gas drops down to the base wall 10 along the inner circumferential wall surface of the impact wall 7, flows over the base wall 10 and enters into the oil drain portion 12. Then, the oil component is drained from the oil drain portion 12 to an outside of the oil mist separator 100.
  • a flow velocity of the blow-by gas is well controlled to attain a good separation performance.
  • the flow velocity of the blow-by gas upon impacting against the impact wall 7 becomes relatively small when the flow velocity of the blow-by gas from an engine is reduced in accordance with engine operating conditions, thereby causing deterioration in the performance of separation of the oil component contained in the blow-by gas.
  • the valve body 15 is used for controlling the flow velocity of the blow-by gas which is introduced into the oil mist separator 100.
  • the valve body 15 is urged to slidably move in such a direction as to be spaced apart from the one axial end of the lower casing-side volume chamber 11 against the biasing force of the spring 23. That is, when the pressure of the blow-by gas flowing into the volume chamber 14 is increased, the valve body 15 is allowed to move such that a distance between the bottom wall 16 and the one end face of the one axial end portion 11a of the lower casing-side volume chamber 11 is increased.
  • the oil mist separator 100 can attain the following function and effect.
  • a pressure of the blow-by gas introduced into the volume chamber 14 is increased and a flow rate of the blow-by gas to be flowed out from the side of the one axial end of the volume chamber 14 through the communication passages 26 is increased
  • the sectional area of each of the communication passages 26 serving as an outlet through which the blow-by gas is flowed out from the volume chamber 14 is increased by the increase in flow rate of the blow-by gas. Therefore, flow velocity of the blow-by gas which is flowed out from the communication passages 26 can be kept substantially constant regardless of the flow rate of the blow-by gas.
  • the flow velocity of the blow-by gas upon impacting against the impact wall 7 can be kept constant irrespective of the flow rate of the blow-by gas which flows into the oil mist separator 100.
  • the oil component contained in the blow-by gas can be stably separated from the blow-by gas.
  • each of the communication passages 26 varies in accordance with the flow rate of the blow-by gas which flows into the oil mist separator 100, it is possible to suppress increase in pressure loss which is caused due to increase in flow rate of the blow-by gas which enters into the oil mist separator 100.
  • FIG. 5 to FIG. 7 are graphs showing various characteristic curves in which characteristics of the oil mist separator 100 according to the first embodiment of the present invention and those of an oil mist separator of a comparative embodiment are compared with each other.
  • each solid line indicates a characteristic curve of the oil mist separator 100 according to the first embodiment and each broken line indicates a characteristic curve of the oil mist separator of the comparative embodiment.
  • the oil mist separator of the comparative embodiment has substantially the same construction as that of the oil mist separator 100 except that a sectional area of each of the communication passages serving as the outlet for the blow-by gas flowing out of the volume chamber is kept constant without varying in accordance with the flow rate of the blow-by gas flowing into the volume chamber and is almost equal to that of each of the communication passages of the oil mist separator 100 which is provided corresponding to a medium value of the flow rate of the blow-by gas flowing into the volume chamber.
  • FIG. 5 shows characteristic curves of the oil mist separator 100 according to the first embodiment and the oil mist separator of the comparative embodiment, each showing a relationship between flow rate of blow-by gas flowing into the oil mist separator and efficiency of trapping or separating oil mist present in the blow-by gas.
  • the sectional area of each of the communication passages 26 varies in accordance with the flow rate of the blow-by gas flowing into the volume chamber 14, so that the flow velocity of the blow-by gas upon impacting the impact wall 7 can be kept substantially constant. Therefore, as seen from FIG. 5 , even in such a condition that the flow rate of the blow-by gas is low, an oil component contained in the blow-by gas can be efficiently separated from the blow-by gas.
  • FIG. 6 shows characteristic curves of the oil mist separator 100 according to the first embodiment and the oil mist separator of the comparative embodiment, each showing a relationship between particle size of oil mist which is separated from the blow-by gas in the oil mist separator and efficiency of trapping the oil mist (that is, efficiency of separating the oil mist from the blow-by gas) under a condition that the flow rate of the blow-by gas flowing into the oil mist separator is kept constant and low.
  • the sectional area of each of the communication passages 26 is small. Therefore, it is possible to suppress drop in flow velocity of the blow-by gas flowing out of the communication passages 26 and thereby efficiently trap the oil mist having a small particle size as seen from FIG. 6 .
  • FIG. 7 shows characteristic curves of the oil mist separator 100 according to the first embodiment and the oil mist separator of the comparative embodiment, each showing a relationship between flow rate of the blow-by gas flowing into the oil mist separator and pressure loss in the oil mist separator.
