Definitions
- the invention relates to a compressor valve for controlling a piston engine for the inlet of a gas into the working space or the outlet of a gas from the working space of the piston machine with at least one valve seat, a valve catcher and a sealing element.
- Ring and Poppet valves with profiled valve elements are suitable for use under difficult conditions, because due to the ring geometry better flow and sealing than with a plate valve can be expected.
- a disadvantage of the self-cleaning is that the sealing elements are stressed substantially at one point on the circumference by the rotational movement about the central axis. Thus, wear always takes place always at the same place on the circumference of the sealing element, since only one degree of freedom is present.
- the invention has for its object to provide for a piston engine, in particular a compressor or a vacuum pump, a compressor valve in which the respective sealing element has a plurality of degrees of freedom, so that a uniform wear is given in the respective sealing element.
- the sealing element between the valve seat and the valve catcher is arranged.
- the sealing element rests in the valve seat on a seat bar, which is circumferentially mounted on one end of a collar bush or bore in the valve seat.
- the sealing element is held in a receptacle which is attached to one end of the valve catcher.
- the seat bar is formed profiled on the collar bushing or bore.
- the seat bar is formed depending on the diameter of the sealing element and the diameter of the collar bushing or bore at a predetermined angle. Due to the adaptation of the seat bar to the diameter of the sealing element, a sealing of the sealing element is always ensured centrally on the seat bar, so that the sealing element is always located centrally in a stable working position.
- the sealing element on the collar bush or the bore with the seat bar has a line contact, wherein the line contact of the sealing element is connected to a higher density of the valve and reduces sticking of the sealing element.
- a geometric shape is advantageous, which is adapted to the shape of the sealing element.
- valve catcher is equipped with a socket in which a spring is accommodated which engages with the sealing member at a predetermined tension.
- Fig. I is a sectional view of a compressor valve for a piston engine with at least one sealing element 03 is shown, which is designed in the form of a spherical shape.
- the compressor valve comprises at least one valve seat 01 and a valve catcher 02, wherein the sealing element 03 is arranged between the valve seat and the valve catcher.
- the sealing element 03 is mounted above a mounted in the valve seat collar bushing 04 or bore 06 and immersed in the collar bushing or bore to about a quarter of its surface.
- Fig. II is a partial sectional view of a detail of a compressor valve for a piston engine is shown, wherein the sealing element 03 rests in the immersed to about a quarter of the surface layer above the collar bushing 04 on a circumferential seat rail 05.
- the circumferential seat bar 05 may be attached to the upper end of the collar bushing 04 or the bore 06 when the collar bush 04 is waived.
- the proposed collar bushing 04 is arranged in the bore 06 in the valve seat 01.
- the sealing element 03 is held in a receptacle 07 which is mounted in the valve catch 02 relative to the valve seat 01, with a distance relative to the seat rail 05 in the valve seat 01.
- the receptacle 07 in the valve catcher 02 is in the immediate vicinity of End of a sleeve 08 is provided, which is mounted in a recess in the valve catch 02.
- a spring 09 is housed in the socket 08 .
- the spring 09 presses with a predetermined force on the sealing element 03, so that the sealing element is under a predetermined voltage.
- the sealing element 03 is less than half of its surface immersed in the valve catcher 02.
- sealing element 03 Due to the spherical shape of the sealing element 03 there is the possibility that the sealing element can rotate freely in all directions in the gas flow. Due to the free mobility of the sealing element 03 occurring wear of the sealing element is transmitted not only to a limited circumferential location of the sealing element, but on the entire surface of the sealing element. Due to the distribution of the occurring wear on the entire surface of the sealing element 03 a longer service life for the sealing element and thus for the compressor valve and the entire compressor system is achieved in this way.
- the sealing elements 03 have only a line contact, which leads to a better tightness and also significantly reduces the problem of sticking the sealing elements.
- the sealing element 03 When opening the valve, the sealing element 03 is moved by the seat bar 05 in the receptacle 07 for the sealing element, wherein the spring 09, which is guided in the sleeve 08, stretched and thus the sealing element 03 is damped.
- the prestressed spring 09 acts in a time-supporting manner on the sealing element 03, so that leaks during the closing process are suppressed.
Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein Kompressorventil zum Steuern einer Kolbenmaschine für den Einlass eines Gases in den Arbeitsraum oder den Auslass eines Gases aus dem Arbeitsraum der Kolbemaschine mit mindestens einem Ventilsitz, einem Ventilfänger und einem Dichtelement.The invention relates to a compressor valve for controlling a piston engine for the inlet of a gas into the working space or the outlet of a gas from the working space of the piston machine with at least one valve seat, a valve catcher and a sealing element.
In Kolbenkompressoren eingesetzte Arbeitsventile unterliegen durch verunreinigte Gase, Ablagerungen und Ölrückstände und den Abrieb von Kolbenringen und Führungsringen einer starken Verschmutzung.Working valves used in reciprocating compressors are subject to heavy contamination due to contaminated gases, deposits and oil residues and the abrasion of piston rings and guide rings.
Für den Einsatz unter den erschwerten Bedingungen eignen sich Ring- und Poppetventile mit profilierten Ventilelementen, weil aufgrund der Ringgeometrie eine bessere Strömung und Abdichtung als bei einem Plattenventil zu erwarten ist.Ring and Poppet valves with profiled valve elements are suitable for use under difficult conditions, because due to the ring geometry better flow and sealing than with a plate valve can be expected.
Durch das Anströmen der Dichtelemente werden diese einer Drehbewegung ausgesetzt und somit einer Selbstreinigung unterzogen.By the flow of the sealing elements they are exposed to a rotational movement and thus subjected to self-cleaning.
Nachteilig bei der Selbstreinigung ist, dass durch die Drehbewegung um die Mittelachse die Dichtelemente im wesentlichen an einer Stelle am Umfang beansprucht werden. Damit findet ein Verschleiß vor allem stets an der gleichen Stelle am Umfang des Dichtelements statt, da nur ein Freiheitsgrad vorhanden ist.A disadvantage of the self-cleaning is that the sealing elements are stressed substantially at one point on the circumference by the rotational movement about the central axis. Thus, wear always takes place always at the same place on the circumference of the sealing element, since only one degree of freedom is present.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, für eine Kolbenmaschine, insbesondere einen Kompressor oder eine Vakuumpumpe, ein Kompressorventil zu schaffen, bei dem das jeweilige Dichtelement mehrere Freiheitsgrade aufweist, so dass eine gleichmäßige Abnutzung bei dem jeweiligen Dichtelement gegeben ist.The invention has for its object to provide for a piston engine, in particular a compressor or a vacuum pump, a compressor valve in which the respective sealing element has a plurality of degrees of freedom, so that a uniform wear is given in the respective sealing element.
Die Aufgabe wird nach der Erfindung durch ein Kompressorventil mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 1 gelöst.The object is achieved according to the invention by a compressor valve having the features of patent claim 1.
Als vorteilig hat sich herausgestellt, wenn ein Dichtelement in einer kugelförmigen Gestalt verwendet wird. Dabei ist das Dichtelement zwischen dem Ventilsitz und dem Ventilfänger angeordnet. Das Dichtelement ruht im Ventilsitz auf einer Sitzleiste, die umlaufend an einem Ende einer Kragenbuchse oder Bohrung im Ventilsitz angebracht ist. Im Ventilfänger ist das Dichtelement in einer Aufnahme gehalten, die an einem Ende des Ventilfängers angebracht ist.As has been found advantageous when a sealing element is used in a spherical shape. In this case, the sealing element between the valve seat and the valve catcher is arranged. The sealing element rests in the valve seat on a seat bar, which is circumferentially mounted on one end of a collar bush or bore in the valve seat. In the valve catch, the sealing element is held in a receptacle which is attached to one end of the valve catcher.
Von besonderem Vorteil ist, dass die Sitzleiste an der Kragenbuchse oder Bohrung profiliert ausgebildet ist. Darüber hinaus ist die Sitzleiste in Abhängigkeit vom Durchmesser des Dichtelements und Durchmesser der Kragenbuchse oder Bohrung mit einem vorbestimmten Winkel ausgebildet. Aufgrund der Anpassung der Sitzleiste an den Durchmesser des Dichtelements ist eine Abdichtung des Dichtelements immer mittig auf der Sitzleiste gewährleistet, so dass sich das Dichtelement stets mittig in einer stabilen Arbeitslage befindet.It is particularly advantageous that the seat bar is formed profiled on the collar bushing or bore. In addition, the seat bar is formed depending on the diameter of the sealing element and the diameter of the collar bushing or bore at a predetermined angle. Due to the adaptation of the seat bar to the diameter of the sealing element, a sealing of the sealing element is always ensured centrally on the seat bar, so that the sealing element is always located centrally in a stable working position.
Weiter ist von Vorteil, dass das Dichtelement auf der Kragenbuchse oder der Bohrung mit der Sitzleiste einen Linienkontakt aufweist, wobei der Linienkontakt des Dichtelements mit einer höheren Dichtigkeit des Ventils verbunden ist und ein Kleben des Dichtelements reduziert.It is also advantageous that the sealing element on the collar bush or the bore with the seat bar has a line contact, wherein the line contact of the sealing element is connected to a higher density of the valve and reduces sticking of the sealing element.
Für die Aufnahme des Dichtelements in dem Ventilfänger ist eine geometrische Form von Vorteil, die an die Form des Dichtelements angepasst ist.For receiving the sealing element in the valve catch, a geometric shape is advantageous, which is adapted to the shape of the sealing element.
Weiterhin hat sich als Vorteil erwiesen, wenn der Ventilfänger mit einer Buchse ausgerüstet ist, in welcher eine Feder untergebracht ist, die mit dem Dichtelement mit einer vorbestimmten Spannung in Eingriff steht.Furthermore, it has proven to be advantageous if the valve catcher is equipped with a socket in which a spring is accommodated which engages with the sealing member at a predetermined tension.
Weitere Merkmale und Vorteile des Kompressorventils ergeben sich aus der nachfolgenden Beschreibung eines bevorzugten Ausführungsbeispiels anhand der beigefügten Zeichnung.Further features and advantages of the compressor valve will become apparent from the following description of a preferred embodiment with reference to the accompanying drawings.

In
Das Kompressorventil umfasst mindestens einen Ventilsitz 01 und einen Ventilfänger 02, wobei das Dichtelement 03 zwischen dem Ventilsitz und dem Ventilfänger angeordnet ist. Das Dichtelement 03 ist oberhalb einer im Ventilsitz angebrachten Kragenbuchse 04 oder Bohrung 06 gelagert und taucht in die Kragenbuchse oder Bohrung zu ungefähr einem Viertel seiner Oberfläche ein.The compressor valve comprises at least one
In Fig. II ist eine Teilansicht im Schnitt einer Einzelheit eines Kompressorventils für eine Kolbenmaschine gezeigt, wobei das Dichtelement 03 in der zu ungefähr einem Viertel der Oberfläche eingetauchten Lage oberhalb der Kragenbuchse 04 auf einer umlaufenden Sitzleiste 05 ruht. Die umlaufende Sitzleiste 05 kann am oberen Ende der Kragenbuchse 04 oder der Bohrung 06 angebracht sein, wenn auf die Kragenbuchse 04 verzichtet wird. Die vorgesehene Kragenbuchse 04 ist in der Bohrung 06 im Ventilsitz 01 angeordnet.In Fig. II is a partial sectional view of a detail of a compressor valve for a piston engine is shown, wherein the sealing
Weiterhin ist nach Fig. II das Dichtelement 03 in einer Aufnahme 07 gehalten, die im Ventilfänger 02 gegenüber dem Ventilsitz 01 angebracht ist, und zwar mit einem Abstand gegenüber der Sitzleiste 05 im Ventilsitz 01. Die Aufnahme 07 im Ventilfänger 02 ist in unmittelbarer Nähe des Endes einer Buchse 08 vorgesehen, die in einer Ausnehmung im Ventilfänger 02 angebracht ist. In der Buchse 08 ist eine Feder 09 untergebracht. Die Feder 09 drückt mit einer vorbestimmten Kraft auf das Dichtelement 03, so dass das Dichtelement unter einer vorbestimmten Spannung steht. Das Dichtelement 03 ist weniger als zur Hälfte seiner Oberfläche in dem Ventilfänger 02 eingetaucht.Furthermore, according to Fig. II, the
Aufgrund der kugelförmigen Gestalt des Dichtelements 03 ist die Möglichkeit gegeben, dass sich das Dichtelement im Gasstrom in alle Richtungen frei drehen kann. Durch die freie Beweglichkeit des Dichtelements 03 wird ein auftretender Verschleiß des Dichtelements nicht nur auf eine begrenzte Umfangsstelle des Dichtelements, sondern auf die gesamte Oberfläche des Dichtelements übertragen. Durch die Verteilung des auftretenden Verschleißes auf die gesamte Oberfläche des Dichtelements 03 wird auf diese Weise eine längere Standzeit für das Dichtelement und damit für das Kompressorventil und die gesamte Kompressoranlage erzielt.Due to the spherical shape of the sealing
Durch den Einsatz von wärmebehandelten, profilierten Kragenbuchsen 04 mit Sitzleisten 05 haben die Dichtelemente 03 nur einen Linienkontakt, was zu einer besseren Dichtigkeit führt und auch das Problem des Klebens der Dichtelemente erheblich reduziert.Through the use of heat-treated, profiled collar bushing 04 with
Weiterhin vorteilig ist, dass durch die Geometrie der kugelförmigen Dichtelemente 03 eine Torsion ausgeschlossen ist, was gerade im Zusammenhang mit leichten Gasen, wie zum Beispiel Wasserstoff, bei einer Ventilplatte oder Ventilringen zu größeren Leckagen führt.Furthermore, it is advantageous that is excluded by the geometry of the
Beim Öffnen des Ventils wird das Dichtelement 03 von der Sitzleiste 05 in die Aufnahme 07 für das Dichtelement bewegt, wobei die Feder 09, die in der Buchse 08 geführt ist, gespannt und somit das Dichtelement 03 bedämpft wird.When opening the valve, the
Beim Schließvorgang des Ventils wirkt die vorgespannte Feder 09 zeitlich unterstützend auf das Dichtelement 03 ein, so dass Leckagen beim Schließvorgang unterdrückt werden.During the closing operation of the valve, the
