Definitions

• the invention relates to a device for controlling an exhaust valve of an internal combustion engine with a controllable actuator, with a drivable by the actuator lever and with a movement of the control lever on the exhaust valve transmitting push rod.
• Such a device is for example from the
• DE 10 2008 014 609 AI known Such devices are often used in today's internal combustion engines, for example to switch exhaust gas recirculation valves, for adjusting the stator blades of a turbocharger or for actuating a wastegate valve in a turbocharger.
• the actuator has for its control, for example, an electric motor or a pneumatic actuator.
• the lever is driven by a gear in the known device.
• an elastic element is arranged, which compensates for load peaks.
• the push rod allows a spatially ⁇ separated arrangement of the exhaust valve of the actuator.
• the invention is based on the problem to form a device of the type mentioned so on that it has ei ⁇ nen particularly low energy consumption.
• This problem is inventively achieved in that are supported laterally on a stop in one of the end positions of the exhaust valve, the adjusting lever or the push rod.
• levers and push rod have a detent position in which they are held on the stop. Therefore, the exhaust valve is held passively in the one end position of the stop.
• the actuator requires no energy when the exhaust valve is held at least in one end position.
• the energy required to operate the device according to the invention energy consumption is particularly low. Since the adjusting lever is usually shorter and thus more rigid than the push rod, the adjusting lever is preferably supported on the stop.
• the structural complexity for controlling the exhaust valve can be kept particularly low according to another advantageous embodiment of the invention, when the push rod with the lever forms a crank mechanism and if in a dead center of the crank mechanism, the exhaust valve has the one end position and the lever or the push rod in the case of the drive of the crank mechanism beyond the dead point on the stop is supported. In this position, which is rotated beyond the dead center of the crank mechanism, a force introduced into the push rod by the exhaust valve can not lead to a Verschwen ⁇ ken of the control lever, as the lever and push rod are blocked. Only when the control lever on the Stellan ⁇ drive is swung back over the dead center, the connecting rod can be moved in their longitudinal direction and drive the exhaust valve.
• the push rod and the lever could be in one end ⁇ position of the exhaust valve in an extended position one behind the other.
• the exhaust valve can be particularly easily adjusted according to another advantageous embodiment of the invention, when the push rod and the lever are parallel to each other in the one end position of the exhaust valve.
• the exhaust valve is permanently CLOSED ⁇ sen.
• the invention avoid a permanent energization of the actuator when the one end position corresponds to the closed position of the exhaust valve.
• the push rod can be preassembled according to another advantageous embodiment of the invention with the elastic member to a structural unit, when the push rod has an inner member and an inner member telescopically cross-outer member and when the elastic Element is disposed between the inner and the outer member and is supported on shoulders of the inner and outer members.
• the inventive device is particularly compact set ⁇ builds when the elastic member is a coil spring being formed ⁇ .
• the device according to the invention is structurally particularly simple if the exhaust valve has a vertically pivotable against an opening of an exhaust gas duct exhaust flap. Thus, the force of the elastic element acts against the pressure in the exhaust passage.
