  • the object of the present invention is that of improving the abovementioned known system, with particular reference to the simplicity of construction and assembly as well as reducing the overall dimensions.
  • One specific problem requiring to be solved in an engine of the type in question lies in providing a sealing casing around each injector of the engine in the limited space available adjacent to each cylinder, due to the presence of the actuators of the intake valves of the engine.
  • the invention has the object of providing an engine having the characteristics indicated above and further characterised in that the fuel injector associated to each engine cylinder is surrounded by a sealing casing which is part of a support body mounted on the engine cylinder head such casing defines a sealing peripheral edge cooperating with a sealing cover which is mounted on the cylinder head, and having a general base plane sealingly mounted on the cylinder head.
  • the sealing peripheral edge of each sealing casing is arranged in a plane parallel and raised with respect to the general base plane of said cover.
  • Figure 1 of the attached drawings shows a sectional view of a petrol-fuelled engine provided with "MULTIAIR" system, as described in the European patent EP 0 803 642 B 1 of the applicant.
  • the engine illustrated therein is multi-cylinder engine, for example an engine with four in-line cylinders, comprising a cylinder head 1.
  • the head 1 comprises, for each cylinder, a cavity 2 formed by the base surface 3 of the head 1, defining the combustion chamber, in which the two intake conduits 4, 5 and two exhaust conduits 6 end up.
  • the communication of the two intake conduits 4, 5 with the combustion chamber 2 is controlled by two intake valves 7, of the conventional mushroom type, each comprising a stem 8 slidably mounted in the body of the head 1.
  • Each valve 7 is returned towards the closed position by springs 9 interposed between an inner surface of the head 1 and an end retaining cap 10 of the valve.
  • the communication of the two exhaust conduits 6 with the combustion chamber is controlled by two valves 70, also of the conventional type, to which springs 9 for return towards the closed position are associated.
  • each intake valve 7 is controlled, as described hereinafter, by a camshaft 11 mounted rotatably around an axis 12 within supports of the head 1, and comprising a plurality of cams 14 for actuating the intake valves 7.
  • Each cam 14 which controls an intake valve 7 cooperates with the plate 15 of a tappet 16 slidably mounted along an axis 17 which, in the case of the example illustrated in the mentioned prior art document, is substantially directed at 90° with respect to the axis of the valve 7.
  • the plate 15 is returned against the cam 14 by a spring associated thereto.
  • the tappet 16 constitutes a pumping piston slidably mounted within a bushing 18 carried by a body 19, or "brick" of a preassembled unit 20, incorporating all electrical and hydraulic devices associated to the actuation of the intake valves, according to the description outlined hereinafter.
  • the pumping piston 16 is capable of transmitting a thrust to the stem 8 of the valve 7, so as to cause the opening of the latter against the action of the elastic means 9, by means of pressurised fluid (preferably oil coming from the engine lubrication circuit) present in a pressure chamber C to which the pumping piston 16 is faced, and by means of a piston 21 slidably mounted in a cylindrical body constituted by a bushing 22 also carried by the body 19 of the sub-unit 20.
  • pressurised fluid preferably oil coming from the engine lubrication circuit
  • the pressurised fluid chamber C associated to each intake valve 7 can be placed in communication with an exhaust channel 23 through a solenoid valve 24.
  • the solenoid valve 24, which can be of any known type adapted to the function illustrated herein, is controlled by electronic control means, indicated schematically with 25, as a function of the signal S indicating the operating parameters of the engine, such as the position of the accelerator and the number of engine revolutions.
  • the exhaust channels 23 of the various solenoid valves 24 end up in the same longitudinal channel 26 communicating with pressure accumulators 27, only one of which can be observed in figure 1 .
  • All tappets 16 with the associated bushings 18, the pistons 21 with the associated bushings 22, the solenoid valves 24 and the respective channels 23, 26 are carried by and obtained from the abovementioned body 19 of the preassembled unit 20, to the advantage of an engine that is quick and easy to assemble.
  • the exhaust valves 70 associated to each cylinder are controlled, in the embodiment illustrated in figure 1 , conventionally, by a respective camshaft 28, through respective tappets 29, even though, in the case of the mentioned prior art document, an application of the hydraulic actuation system also controlling exhaust valves cannot be excluded generally.
  • variable volume chamber defined within the bushing 22 and facing the piston 21 communicates with the pressurised fluid chamber C through an opening 30 obtained in an end wall of the bushing 22.
  • opening 30 is engaged by an end nose 31 of the piston 21 so as to provide a hydraulic braking of the movement of the valve 7 in the closing phase, when the valve is close to the closing position, in that the oil present in the variable volume chamber is forced to flow into the pressurised fluid chamber C passing through the clearance present between the end nose 31 and the opening wall 30 engaged thereby.
  • the pressurised fluid chamber C and the variable volume chamber of the piston 21 communicate with respect to each other through internal passages obtained in the body of the piston 21 and controlled by a check valve 32 which allows the passage of fluid only from the pressurized chamber C to the variable volume chamber of the piston 21.
  • the nose 31 In the reverse movement for closing the valve, as previously mentioned, during the final phase, the nose 31 enters into the opening 30 causing the hydraulic braking of the valve, so as to avoid impacts of the body of the valve against the seat thereof, for example after an opening of the solenoid valve 24 which causes the immediate return of the valve 7 to the closed position
  • each intake valve can be controlled in "multi-lift" mode i.e.
  • the electronic control unit is thus capable of obtaining a variation of the opening instant and/or the closing instant and/or the lift instant of the intake valve, as a function of one or more engine operative parameters. This allows obtaining the maximum efficiency of the engine, and lower consumption of fuel, under any condition of operation.
  • a body 50 for supporting the camshaft 11 - in which the seats for supporting the rotation of the shaft 11, on which the latter is held by means of caps 51 fastened on the body 50 - is mounted on the cylinder head 1.
  • the illustrated example refers to the case of a four-cylinder diesel engine.
  • the invention is also applicable to a controlled ignition engine and with any number of cylinders.
  • the pre-assembled unit for the variable actuation of the intake valves of the engine is constituted by four separate sub-units 20A, 20B, 20C, 20D, each comprising a respective support independent body or "brick", respectively indicated with 19A, 19B, 19C, 19D.
  • the body 19A of the sub-unit 20A and analogously each of the other bodies 19B, 19C, 19D of the sub-units 20B, 20C, 20D carries all the devices intended to allow actuating the intake valves of the respective engine cylinder.
  • the sub-unit carries the pumping cylinder 18 whose stem is actuated by a respective cam 14 by means of a rocker arm lever 52, articulated in 53 to the support body 19A and carrying a roller 54 for the engagement of the cam 14.
  • the support body 19A of the sub-unit 20A carries the two hydraulic actuators 22 respectively associated to two intake valves of the respective engine cylinder.
  • the body 19A carries the body of the solenoid valve 24, which simply rests within a seat arranged in the body 19A and it is locked by means of a locking plate 52 fixed by means of screws to the body 19A. Obviously all ducts required for the hydraulic connection of the system for variable actuation of the valves are obtained within the body 19A. Lastly, an upper cavity of the body 19A (indicated with 56 in figure 3B ) is closed by means of a cover 570 fastened on the body 19A.
  • FIG. 2 shows one of the injectors associated to the engine cylinders, indicated with the reference I.
  • Each injector I is mounted in the cylinder head through a cup-shaped casing 57, illustrated more in detail hereinafter and which is made in a single piece with the respective support body 19A of the respective sub-unit 20A.
  • the unit for variable actuation of the intake valves of the engine constituted by the plurality of sub-units 20A-D is closed at the upper part by a cover 58 with the interposition of a sealing gasket 60.
  • the sealing gasket 60 is received in a corresponding peripheral groove of the cover 58 (see figure 7 ) and respectively provides sealing on the bodies 19A-D and on the body 50 for supporting the camshaft.
  • the body 50 for supporting the camshaft could be made in a single piece with the cylinder head, or it could be made in several pieces respectively integrated in the support bodies of the sub-units 20A-D.
  • the sealing gasket 60 has a main portion contained in a general base plane of the cover 58, and a plurality of portions 61A-D arranged longitudinally adjacent to each other along one side of the head and associated respectively to the various support bodies 19A-D of the sub-units 20A-D.
  • Each of said portions 61A-D has two lateral portions 62 which extend in planes parallel and orthogonal to the abovementioned general base plane, and a central portion 63 which extends in a parallel plane with respect to the abovementioned general base plane and raised with respect thereto.
  • each of the lateral portions 62 has a rectilinear main section which - at the end - extends in two brief sections one respectively contained in the general base plane of the cover and the other in the plane in which the central portions 63 extend.
  • each injector is surrounded by a cup-shaped casing 57, shaped extended horizontally, obtained in a single piece with the respective body 19A-D of the respective sub-unit 20A-D.
  • the cup-shaped casing 57 defines an upper peripheral edge for the engagement of a respective sealing gasket 64 arranged within a respective groove in the lower surface of the cover 58 ( figure 7 ).
  • the plane of the upper edge of the cup-shaped casing 57 is parallel but raised with respect to the general base plane of the cover, so that the casing 57 can have the required dimension, without the risk of interference with the actuators 22 associated to the intake valves of the respective cylinder (see figure 3A ).
  • the sealing gaskets 64 of the casings surrounding the injectors I be in the general base plane of the cover, there would be no sufficient room to receive them in the area comprised between the body of the injector and the body of the aforementioned actuators 22. Therefore, the arrangement described above allows guaranteeing an ideal sealing also at each injector I.
  • Each injector is locked in the seat thereof in the cylinder head (see figures 4, 5 ) by means of a bracket 640 which has an end resting on a support (in the example the head of a screw 65 which is used for fixing the body 50 on the cylinder head).

Also such embodiment has the characteristic of having cup-shaped casings 57 associated to the injectors of the various engine cylinders and defining an upper sealing edge contained in a parallel plane and raised with respect to the general base plane of the cover (not shown in figures 9-12 ). Such embodiment does not provide for separate sub-units for the system for variable actuation of the intake valves, but two single longitudinal bodies 70, 71 mounted on the body 50 carrying the camshaft 11. The first longitudinal body 70 closes - at the upper part - the seat for rotatably supporting the camshaft 11 and integrates the cup-shaped casings 57 associated to the various injectors I.
  • the body 70 in a different embodiment, can be subdivided into a number of sub-units equivalent to the number of the injectors (i.e. of the cylinders) each integrating the cup-shaped casing 57 and serving or not serving the function of closing the camshaft at the upper part.
  • the second longitudinal unit 71 integrates the components of variable actuation of the intake valves of the various cylinders, with the relative solenoid valves 24.
  • each injector is locked in the seat thereof by means of a bracket 65 ( figure 12 ) with fork-shaped end, whose branches 66 engage corresponding shoulders provided for in the body of the injector I.
