Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an internal combustion engine having an engine block, a cylinder head, in which intake passages are provided, which direct air from intake ports of the cylinder head to exhaust ports of the cylinder head, which air flows in a flow direction from the intake ports through the intake ports to the exhaust ports.
  • the unfiltered unfiltered air is drawn in via an intake manifold (air manifold, intake manifold, intake manifold, individual conduits) which generally has a central conduit leading from the air intake on the unfiltered air side via a filter element which directs filtered clean air to an intake manifold.
  • intake manifold air manifold, intake manifold, intake manifold, individual conduits
  • the common line is distributed in individual lines. Each of these individual lines leads to an inlet channel, which is provided in the cylinder head.
  • the number of individual lines depends on the number of cylinders of the engine or cylinder head used. Such suction pipes thus have a central inlet and 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, or 8 outlets, with associated individual lines. In naturally aspirated engines, the length and diameter of this single line are meticulously tuned to one or more load / speed points to support the charge cycle. In the turbocharged engine, however, this is not the case, as short as possible tubes with low flow losses are required.
  • Today's intake manifolds used in supercharged engines include, as in naturally aspirated engines, a main pipe from which the feeders to the intake ports in the cylinder head branch off in the form of the single cables described. These supply channels are individually flanged to the cylinder head and sealed with a single seal or one or more multiple seals (gaskets). In order to achieve the most uniform possible distribution of the air mass flow to the individual cylinders, the intake manifold volume should be as large as possible for leveling and buffering the pressure fluctuations due to the rhythmic opening of the inlet valves.
  • the installation space between the individual air supply lines can not be used by the package.
  • the total intake pipe length includes the length of the feeding single pipe as well as the length of the intake port into the cylinder head, both lengths together resulting in the entire intake pipe length.
  • the main pipe is far from the engine block and must often be constricted because of package overlaps, for example, with components of the steering. This reduces the volume of the intake tract and leads to flow losses. The flow losses result in a poorer degree of filling of the cylinder and thus reduce the performance of the internal combustion engine.
  • the FR 2 907 514 shows an air distributor for an internal combustion engine of a motor vehicle, comprising a housing which is adapted to be attached to a cylinder head and which defines a plurality of suitable openings for distributing the air to the combustion chambers of the engine, wherein the openings formed on an insert and wherein the insert is insertable into a suitable recess of the housing.
  • a charge air housing made of plastic for motor vehicle engines which has an upper half of the housing made of plastic.
  • a lower housing half, which is also made of plastic, is connected to the upper half of the housing by welding.
  • a module for mixing two gas streams of a heat exchanger for an internal combustion engine is known.
  • the module For heat exchange with a first gas flow G, the module comprises a multiplicity of first conduction layers and a plurality of second diffusion layers of a second gas flow H.
  • the pamphlets EP0969199A2 and US2005 / 0133009A1 show open air collector, whose outlet is arranged at the inlet openings of the cylinder head and encloses a plurality of inlet openings. These documents show naturally aspirated engines, that is engines without pressure generating means upstream of the air collector.
  • the invention proposes an internal combustion engine with an engine block, a cylinder head, in which inlet channels are provided, which direct air from the inlet openings on the cylinder head to exhaust ports of the cylinder head.
  • the exhaust ports of the cylinder head are simultaneously intake ports into the combustion chamber and can be opened and closed by means of intake valves. The air flows in a flow direction from the intake ports through the intake ports to the intake valves.
  • the internal combustion engine has an air collector with an inlet and an outlet, wherein the air collector is arranged directly on the cylinder head, thus using the space otherwise lost between the individual lines.
  • the outlet of the air collector may be arranged at the inlet openings of the cylinder head, wherein the outlet comprises a plurality of inlet openings.
  • the outlet of the air collector may be limited by a circumferential wall having an end face, wherein the air collector is arranged on the cylinder head, that it the cylinder head with the end face the surrounding wall immediately touched.
  • a single circumferential seal can be arranged on the front side of the air collector.
  • a single large cord seal instead of four individual seals can be used, which reduces the assembly effort and the number of parts.
  • the internal combustion engine may be provided in its intake in the direction of flow of air in front of the air collector, a pressure generator.
  • a pressure generating device for example a turbine of an exhaust gas turbocharger or a compressor o. ⁇ . Be provided, which increase the pressure in the unfiltered air upstream of the air collector.
  • the inventive arrangement of an air collector directly to an internal combustion engine has particularly great advantages in supercharged internal combustion engines. Although the advantages according to the invention with turbocharged engines are particularly effective, the invention is also suitable for naturally aspirated engines. By using the air collector, the flow resistance is minimized and at the same time less space taken up by the engine.
  • the air collector may have a substantially tubular main pipe section and a substantially box-shaped, one-sided open outlet section.
  • the air collector with its outlet on one side of the cylinder head, on which the inlet openings are provided, be bolted to the cylinder head.
  • the intake ports of the cylinder head may open into the outlet of the air collector, and air from the outlet of the air collector may flow directly into the intake ports of the intake ports.
  • a section through an internal combustion engine 10 is shown having an engine block 12 in which a piston 16 is arranged to be intermittently movable.
  • the piston 16 is connected via a connecting rod 17 with a crankshaft, not shown in operative connection.
  • a cylinder head 11 is arranged, the inlet channels 15 has.
  • Each cylinder of the internal combustion engine 10 may include one or more inlet channels 15.
  • the inlet channels 15 connect an inlet opening 15a to an outlet opening 15b.
  • the outlet opening 15 b simultaneously constitutes an inlet into the combustion chamber 30 and can be closed by means of an inlet valve 14.
  • Fig. 1 shown on the right side are exhaust ports which are also provided in the cylinder head 11 and which can be closed with exhaust valves 13.
  • an air collector 20 is provided directly to the cylinder head 11.
  • FIG Fig. 2 A perspective view of the air collector 20 is shown in FIG Fig. 2 shown.
  • This has an inlet 21 with a main pipe section 22.
  • the main pipe section 22 connects the inlet 21 with a substantially box-shaped, one-sided open outlet section 26.
  • the outlet section 26 comprises an inner chamber 23, through which the sucked air is directed from the intake before It is sucked into the cylinder head 11.
  • the chamber 23 is surrounded by a wall which also encloses an outlet opening 25.
  • the air collector 20 is half-shell-shaped.
  • the wall which forms the outlet opening 25 has an end face 24 which encloses the opening or the outlet 25. This end face 24 is parallel to the cross-sectional area of the outlet 25.
  • FIGS FIG. 2 the inlet openings 15a shown in phantom. All inlet openings 15a of the inlet channels 15 thus open side by side into the air collector 20 into the outlet 25 of the air collector 20.
  • Fig. 3 is an exploded view showing the cylinder head 11, with arranged thereon air collector 20th Fig. 3 shows the back of the air collector 20 so that it faces the inlet openings 15a of the inlet channels 15 in the cylinder head 11 with its outlet opening 25.
  • the entire intake system can zoom closer by the inventive intake manifold in the form of an air collector 20 to the cylinder head 11, since he can use the space between the supply lines as an active volume compared to a cylinder head of a conventional intake system. This results in a larger total volume of the air intake tract realized, at the same time lesser expansion of space requirements. Package conflicts can be avoided. Last but not least, the cost of parts and the effort in tool design, for the production of the intake system is reduced due to the simpler geometric shape of the air collector 20. In addition, the weight of the engine is reduced, since both the cylinder head side portion of the intake system is reduced in weight, as well Cylinder head are larger by the drawn into the side wall inlet duct entries.
