Aus dem Serienbau von Brennkraftmaschinen sind solche Brennkraftmaschinen mit mehreren Zylindern und mindestens einem Zylinderkopf bekannt, bei welchen Einlasskanälen des Zylinderkopfes an einer Einlassflanschfläche und Auslasskanäle an einer gegenüberliegenden Auslassflanschfläche münden. Ferner ist oberhalb eines Raumes im Zylinderkopf, der die Ein- und Auslasskanäle und einen Kühlmittelraum aufnimmt, ein Ölraum für eine Betätigungsvorrichtung für Gaswechselventile vorgesehen.From the serial production of internal combustion engines, such internal combustion engines with a plurality of cylinders and at least one cylinder head are known, in which inlet ducts of the cylinder head open at an inlet flange surface and outlet ducts at an opposite outlet flange surface.

Ein derartiger Zylinderkopf wird in dem Dokument
Die bekannten Brennkraftmaschinen weisen eine relative hohe Komplexität insbesondere hinsichtlich ihrer Fertigung auf, was insbesondere auf eine Vielzahl von abzudichtenden Flanschflächen zurückzuführen ist. Daraus resultieren unerwünscht hohe Kosten für die Brennkraftmaschine.The known internal combustion engines have a relatively high complexity, in particular with regard to their production, which is due in particular to a large number of flange surfaces to be sealed. This results in undesirably high costs for the internal combustion engine.
Es ist daher Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, eine Brennkraftmaschine der eingangs genannten Art sowie ein Verfahren zum Herstellen einer solchen Brennkraftmaschine bereitzustellen, welche eine Kostenreduzierung ermöglichen.It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide an internal combustion engine of the aforementioned type and a method for producing such an internal combustion engine, which enable a cost reduction.
Diese Aufgabe wird durch eine Brennkraftmaschine mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 1 sowie durch ein Verfahren zum Herstellen einer solchen Brennkraftmaschine mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 10 gelöst. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen mit zweckmäßigen und nicht-trivialen Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind in den abhängigen Ansprüchen angegeben.This object is achieved by an internal combustion engine having the features of patent claim 1 and by a method for producing such an internal combustion engine with the features of
Der erste Aspekt der Erfindung betrifft eine Brennkraftmaschine mit mehreren Zylindern mit mindestens einem Zylinderkopf, wobei Einlässe des Zylinderkopfes an einer Einlassflanschfläche und Auslasskanäle an einer gegenüberliegenden Auslassflanschfläche münden und wobei oberhalb eines Raumes im Zylinderkopf, der die Ein- und Auslasskanäle und einen Kühlmittelraum aufnimmt, ein Ölraum für eine Betätigungsvorrichtung für Gaswechselventile vorgesehen ist.The first aspect of the invention relates to an internal combustion engine having a plurality of cylinders with at least one cylinder head, wherein inlets of the cylinder head at an inlet flange surface and outlet channels at an opposite Auslassflanschfläche open and above a space in the cylinder head, which receives the inlet and outlet ducts and a coolant space, a Oil space is provided for an actuator for gas exchange valves.
Erfindungsgemäß sind die Einlassflanschfläche und die Auslassflanschfläche gegeneinander geneigt angeordnet, so dass eine gedachte Schnittgerade der beiden Flanschflächen in Hochrichtung der Brennkraftmaschine oberhalb des Zylinderkopfes liegt und der Zylinderkopf einen zumindest im Wesentlichen dreiecksförmigen Querschnitt aufweist.According to the invention, the inlet flange surface and the outlet flange surface are arranged inclined relative to one another such that an imaginary line of intersection of the two flange faces in the vertical direction of the internal combustion engine lies above the cylinder head and the cylinder head has an at least substantially triangular cross section.
Dadurch kann im Vergleich zu herkömmlichen Brennkraftmaschinen eine abzudichtende Flanschfläche zwischen dem Zylinderkopf und einer Zylinderkopfhaube sowie die Zylinderkopfhaube selbst entfallen. Die erfindungsgemäße Brennkraftmaschine weist damit eine geringe Komplexität auf, was ihren Fertigungsaufwand und damit ihre Kosten gering hält. Ferner weist sie nur eine geringe Teileanzahl auf, was den geringen Kosten ebenso zuträglich ist. Da bei der erfindungsgemäßen Brennkraftmaschine im Vergleich zu herkömmlichen Brennkraftmaschinen die abzudichtende Flanschfläche zwischen dem Zylinderkopf und der Zylinderkopfhaube entfallen kann bzw. deren Funktion in die Einlassflanschfläche und die Auslassflanschfläche integriert ist, ist auch der Aufwand zum Abdichten der erfindungsgemäßen Brennkraftmaschine sowie ihr Montageaufwand als gering zu beziffern, was die Gesamtkosten um ein weiteres in einem geringen Rahmen hält. Darüber hinaus ist die erfindungsgemäße Brennkraftmaschine besonders prozesssicher und damit kostengünstig herstellbar.As a result, in comparison to conventional internal combustion engines, a flange surface to be sealed between the cylinder head and a cylinder head cover and the cylinder head cover itself can be omitted. The internal combustion engine according to the invention thus has a low complexity, which keeps their production costs and thus their costs low. Furthermore, it has only a small number of parts, which is also beneficial to the low cost. Since in the internal combustion engine according to the invention compared to conventional internal combustion engines, the sealed flange between the cylinder head and the cylinder head cover can be omitted or their function is integrated in the inlet flange and the Auslassflanschfläche, the effort to seal the internal combustion engine according to the invention and their assembly effort is to be counted as low , which keeps the total costs on a small scale. In addition, the internal combustion engine according to the invention is particularly reliable and therefore inexpensive to produce.
Ein weiterer Vorteil der erfindungsgemäßen Brennkraftmaschine ist, dass sie insbesondere aufgrund der gegeneinander geneigten Anordnung der Flanschflächen einen nur sehr geringen Bauraumbedarf aufweist. So können Package-Probleme, insbesondere in einem platzkritischen Bereich wie einem Motorraum eines Kraftwagens, insbesondere eines Personenkraftwagens, gelöst oder vermieden werden.Another advantage of the internal combustion engine according to the invention is that it has only a very small space requirement, in particular due to the mutually inclined arrangement of the flange. Thus, package problems, in particular in a space-critical area such as an engine compartment of a motor vehicle, in particular a passenger car, can be solved or avoided.
In einer vorteilhaften Ausführungsform der Erfindung weist der Ölraum des Zylinderkopfes jeweils mindestens eine Öffnung zu den beiden Flanschflächen auf. Dadurch ist der Ölraum besonders einfach zugänglich, was den Montageaufwand und den Wartungsaufwand der erfindungsgemäßen Brennkraftmaschine gering hält. Ferner ist dadurch eine besonders unaufwendige und kostengünstige Herstellung des Zylinderkopfes und damit mit der gesamten Brennkraftmaschine ermöglicht.In an advantageous embodiment of the invention, the oil space of the cylinder head in each case at least one opening to the two flange surfaces. As a result, the oil chamber is particularly easy to access, which keeps the assembly costs and the maintenance of the internal combustion engine according to the invention low. Further This makes a particularly inexpensive and cost-effective production of the cylinder head and thus possible with the entire internal combustion engine.
Ist oberhalb des Ölraums ein Längssteg vorgesehen, der Durchlässe für Zündkerzen und/oder Einspritzdüsen, Injektoren oder dergleichen aufweist, so birgt dies den Vorteil, dass dadurch die Zündkerzen und/oder die Einspritzdüsen besonders einfach mit dem Zylinderkopf zu verbinden bzw. an diesem anzuordnen sind.If a longitudinal web is provided above the oil space, which has passages for spark plugs and / or injection nozzles, injectors or the like, this has the advantage that the spark plugs and / or the injection nozzles are particularly easy to connect to the cylinder head or to be arranged thereon ,
Eine besonders zeit- und kostengünstige Montage der Brennkraftmaschine ist ermöglicht, wenn Zylinderkopfschrauben zur Verschraubung des Zylinderkopfes mit einem Motorgehäuse der Brennkraftmaschine durch die Öffnungen des Ölraums in den Flanschflächen direkt zugänglich sind. So kann der Zylinderkopf beispielsweise mit einem einfachen Standardwerkzeug und für eine montierende Person ergonomisch günstig zugänglich mit dem Motorgehäuse verschraubt werden. Dadurch sind geringe Taktzeiten zur Herstellung und Montage der Brennkraftmaschine ermöglicht, was die Kosten gering hält.A particularly time- and cost-effective installation of the internal combustion engine is made possible when cylinder head bolts for screwing the cylinder head with a motor housing of the internal combustion engine through the openings of the oil chamber in the flange directly accessible. Thus, the cylinder head, for example, with a simple standard tool and for a person to be mounted ergonomically cheap to be screwed to the motor housing. As a result, low cycle times for the manufacture and assembly of the internal combustion engine are possible, which keeps costs low.
In einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausführungsform der Erfindung ist die Einlassflanschfläche des Zylinderkopfes zumindest bereichsweise durch ein Ansaugmodul abgedeckt, das sowohl die Einlasskanäle als auch die Öffnung zum Ölraum dicht, insbesondere fluiddicht und insbesondere öldicht, abdeckt. Mit anderen Worten bedeutet dies, dass im Vergleich zu herkömmlichen Brennkraftmaschinen die abdichtende Funktion der Zylinderkopfhaube zumindest anteilig in das Ansaugmodul integriert ist, welches auch die Einlasskanäle abdeckt. Das Ansaugmodul weist somit eine hohe Funktionsintegration auf, was die Teileanzahl und die Kosten der Brennkraftmaschine gering hält.In a further advantageous embodiment of the invention, the inlet flange of the cylinder head is at least partially covered by an intake module, which covers both the inlet channels and the opening to the oil chamber tight, in particular fluid-tight and oil-tight. In other words, this means that in comparison to conventional internal combustion engines, the sealing function of the cylinder head cover is at least partially integrated into the intake module, which also covers the intake ports. The intake module thus has a high degree of functional integration, which keeps the number of parts and the cost of the internal combustion engine low.
Das Ansaugmodul ist beispielsweise aus Kunststoff ausgebildet, so dass dieses und damit die Brennkraftmaschine ein besonders geringes Gewicht aufweisen. Ferner resultieren daraus besonders geringe Materialkosten, was den geringen Kosten für die Brennkraftmaschine zuträglich ist.The intake module is formed for example of plastic, so that this and thus the internal combustion engine have a particularly low weight. Furthermore, this results in particularly low material costs, which is beneficial to the low cost of the internal combustion engine.
Des Weiteren ist es sehr vorteilhaft, wenn die Auslassflanschfläche des Zylinderkopfes durch ein Abgaskrümmermodul abgedeckt ist, was sowohl die Auslasskanäle als auch die Öffnungen zum Ölraum dicht, insbesondere fluiddicht und insbesondere öldicht, abdeckt. Im Vergleich zu herkömmlichen Brennkraftmaschinen ist dadurch die abdichtende Funktion der Zylinderkopfhaube zumindest anteilig in das Abgaskrümmermodul integriert, so dass das Abgaskrümmermodul einen besonders hohen Funktionserfüllungsumfang aufweist. Dies führt zu einer geringen Teileanzahl, zu geringen Kosten sowie zu einem geringen Gewicht der Brennkraftmaschine.Furthermore, it is very advantageous if the outlet flange surface of the cylinder head is covered by an exhaust manifold module, which covers both the outlet channels and the openings to the oil chamber tight, in particular fluid-tight and in particular oil-tight. In comparison to conventional internal combustion engines thereby the sealing function of the cylinder head cover is at least partially integrated into the exhaust manifold module, so that the exhaust manifold module a particularly high functional performance having. This leads to a low number of parts, at low cost and to a low weight of the internal combustion engine.
Das Abgaskrümmermodul ist beispielsweise als dünnwandiges Umformteil aus einem Metall ausgebildet, so dass auch der Herstellungsaufwand und die Herstellungskosten des Abgaskrümmermoduls gering sind, dieses aber gleichzeitig hohe Belastungen, insbesondere hohe Temperaturbelastungen, während des Betriebs der Brennkraftmaschine schadfrei über eine lange Lebensdauer hinweg ertragen kann.The exhaust manifold module is formed, for example, as a thin-walled forming part of a metal, so that the production cost and manufacturing costs of the exhaust manifold module are low, but this high loads, especially high temperature loads, during operation of the internal combustion engine can endure damage over a long service life.
Die Betätigungsvorrichtung für die Gaswechselventile umfasst beispielsweise eine den Auslasskanälen zugeordnete Nockenwelle und/oder eine den Einlasskanälen zugeordnete Nockenwelle. Zur Lagerung der Nockenwellen an dem Zylinderkopf ist beispielsweise eine Lagergasse vorgesehen, welche teilweise durch den Zylinderkopf gebildet ist. Zur Halterung der Nockenwellen an dem Zylinderkopf ist die Lagergasse teilweise auch durch Lagerdeckel gebildet, welche an dem Zylinderkopf zu befestigen, beispielsweise zu verschrauben, sind. Dabei kann vorteilhafterweise vorgesehen sein, dass die Lagerdeckel in das Ansaugmodul und/oder das Abgaskrümmermodul integriert sind. Wird dann eines dieser Module mit den integrierten Lagerdeckeln an dem Zylinderkopf befestigt, beispielsweise mit diesem verschraubt, so erfolgt dadurch quasi parallel auch eine Verbindung der Lagerdeckel mit dem Zylinderkopf zur Bildung der entsprechenden Lagergasse. Dadurch kann die Nockenwelle bzw. können die Nockenwellen besonders unaufwendig und nur mit einer geringen Teileanzahl an dem Zylinderkopf gehalten werden. Dies kommt wiederum den geringen Kosten sowie dem geringen Gewicht der erfindungsgemäßen Brennkraftmaschine zugute. Zusätzliche Lagerdeckel sowie entsprechende Montagevorgänge zur Befestigung dieser Lagerdeckel an dem Zylinderkopf sind nicht vonnöten.The actuating device for the gas exchange valves comprises, for example, a camshaft associated with the exhaust ducts and / or a camshaft associated with the intake ducts. For storage of the camshaft on the cylinder head, for example, a storage lane is provided, which is partially formed by the cylinder head. For supporting the camshaft on the cylinder head, the storage lane is partially formed by bearing caps, which attach to the cylinder head, for example, to screw, are. It can advantageously be provided that the bearing caps are integrated into the intake module and / or the exhaust manifold module. If one of these modules is then fastened to the cylinder head with the integrated bearing caps, for example bolted to it, this also results in a quasi-parallel connection of the bearing caps to the cylinder head to form the corresponding bearing lane. As a result, the camshaft or the camshafts can be held particularly inexpensively and only with a small number of parts on the cylinder head. This in turn benefits the low cost and low weight of the internal combustion engine according to the invention. Additional bearing caps and appropriate mounting operations for mounting this bearing cap on the cylinder head are not required.
In einer vorteilhaften Ausführungsform der Erfindung liegt die Verschraubungsebene der Lagerdeckel der Nockenwellen in den Flanschflächen des Ansaug- und/oder des Abgaskrümmermoduls. Dadurch kann ein separater, die Kosten unerwünschter Weise erhöhender Herstellvorgang für die Verschraubungsebene entfallen bzw. ist ein solcher zusätzlicher Herstellungsvorgang nicht vonnöten, sodass die Brennkraftmaschine besonders zeit- und kostengünstig herzustellen ist.In an advantageous embodiment of the invention, the Verschraubungsebene the bearing caps of the camshaft in the flange of the intake and / or the exhaust manifold module. As a result, a separate, the costs undesirably increasing manufacturing process for the Verschraubungsebene omitted or such additional manufacturing process is not required, so that the internal combustion engine is particularly time-consuming and inexpensive to manufacture.
Der zweite Aspekt der Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zum Herstellen einer erfindungsgemäßen Brennkraftmaschine, wobei beim Gießen des Zylinderkopfes der Ölraum durch Kerne abgeformt wird, die seitlich durch die Öffnungen in den Flanschbereichen eingebracht werden. Mit anderen Worten kann der Ölraum von seitlichen Schiebern einer Gießeinrichtung dargestellt werden und ein Ölraumkern kann entfallen. Das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren ermöglicht dadurch eine besonders kostengünstige Herstellung der Brennkraftmaschine.The second aspect of the invention relates to a method for producing an internal combustion engine according to the invention, wherein during the casting of the cylinder head, the oil space is formed by cores laterally through the openings in the Flange areas are introduced. In other words, the oil chamber can be represented by lateral slides of a pouring device and an oil chamber core can be dispensed with. The inventive method thus enables a particularly cost-effective production of the internal combustion engine.
Die Schieber können dabei aus einem Stahl und/oder als Kokille ausgebildet sein, was die Kosten zur Herstellung der Brennkraftmaschine weiter reduziert. Dabei ist es nicht erforderlich, Sandkerne zu schießen. Ebenso ist die Kokille sowie ihre Lagerung unempfindlicher gegenüber Toleranzen als es bei einer Sandkernlagerung der Fall ist. Dies ermöglicht die Darstellung sehr geringer Wandstärken, was mit einem geringen Gewicht sowie mit geringen Materialkosten zur Herstellung der Brennkraftmaschine einhergeht. Ferner resultiert daraus eine besonders hohe Prozesssicherheit des Verfahrens, was eine weitere Kostenreduzierung bedeutet.The slides can be made of a steel and / or as a mold, which further reduces the cost of manufacturing the internal combustion engine. It is not necessary to shoot sand cores. Likewise, the mold and its storage is less sensitive to tolerances than is the case with a sand core storage. This allows the representation of very small wall thicknesses, which is associated with a low weight and low material costs for the production of the internal combustion engine. Furthermore, this results in a particularly high process reliability of the process, which means a further cost reduction.

Der Zylinderkopf 10 weist auch einen beidseitigen Ölraum 26 auf, welcher in Hochrichtung der Brennkraftmaschine und des Zylinderkopfes 10 gemäß einem Richtungspfeil 24 oberhalb des Kühlmittelraums 20 angeordnet ist und welcher jeweils eine besonders großflächige Öffnung zu beiden Flanschflächen 16 und 18 hin aufweist. Der Ölraum 26 dient dazu, Öl aufzunehmen, um eine Betätigungseinrichtung zur Betätigung von Gaswechselventilen zu schmieren und zu kühlen. Die Betätigungseinrichtung umfasst dabei eine den Einlasskanälen 12 zugeordnete Nockenwelle, mittels welchen Einlassventile der Gaswechselventile zu betätigen ist. Ferner umfasst die Betätigungseinrichtung eine den Auslasskanälen 14 zugeordnete Nockenwelle, mittels welcher Auslassventile der Gaswechselventile betätigbar sind.The
In dem Ölraum 26 ist eine zu jeweils einer der Nockenwellen korrespondierende Lagergasse 28 bzw. 30 vorgesehen, welche teilweise durch den Zylinderkopf 10 gebildet ist und über welche die jeweilige Nockenwelle an dem Zylinderkopf 10 zu halten ist.In the oil chamber 26 a corresponding to each one of the
Um sowohl den Ölraum 26 zumindest teilweise als auch die Einlassflanschfläche 16 dicht abzudecken, kann ein Ansaugmodul mit dem Zylinderkopf 10 verschraubt werden. Mit anderen Worten übernimmt das Ansaugmodul sowohl die Funktion, den Ölraum 26 abzudecken und abzudichten, als auch die Funktion, die Einlasskanäle 12 abzudecken und abzudichten. Um den Ölraum 26 auch andererseits sowie die Auslasskanäle 14 abzudecken und abzudichten, kann ein Abgaskrümmermodul mit dem Zylinderkopf 10 verbunden werden.In order to cover both the
Dies bedeutet, dass der Ölraum 26 sowie die Einlasskanäle 12 und die Auslasskanäle 16 mittels des Ansaugmoduls und des Abgaskrümmermoduls abzudecken und abzudichten sind. Die Module weisen somit eine besonders hohe Funktionsintegration auf, so dass die Teileanzahl und damit die Kosten der Brennkraftmaschine gering gehalten werden können. Zusätzliche Dichtflächen sind somit nicht vorgesehen, so dass die Brennkraftmaschine und insbesondere der Zylinderkopf 10 besonders zeit- und kostengünstig hergestellt werden kann. Ferner weist der Zylinderkopf 10 und damit die gesamte Brennkraftmaschine insbesondere infolge der zumindest im Wesentlichen dreiecksförmigen Ausbildung des Querschnitts einen besonders geringen Bauraumbedarf auf.This means that the
