Definitions
- the invention relates to an oil circuit for an internal combustion engine and to a crankcase provided with it.
- the present invention relates to the field of oil supply of internal combustion engines. It aims in particular an oil circuit for lubricating and cooling various components of an internal combustion engine fitted to a motor vehicle.
- the internal combustion engines comprise an oil circuit intended to lubricate the various components of the engine, in particular the crankshaft bearings, the conrod heads, etc.
- these bodies need to be lubricated continuously to ensure proper operation of the engine.
- the oil circuit can also cool the oil and engine components such as pistons, which are thermally and mechanically stressed.
- the oil circuit is supplied via a filter by an oil pump and generally comprises a single oil supply ramp conveying this oil to the various points of the engine.
- the lubricating fluid also serves as a coolant, the need for cooling increases dramatically with the specific power of the motors. Therefore, this ramp can be equipped with several nozzles dosing and spraying a jet of oil oriented towards the bottom of pistons, for example, to operate their cooling, the nozzles being oriented towards the arch of the pistons. In this case, it is not possible to cut this ramp for problems of pincushion jam.
- the cooling of the pistons can increase the blow-by gas flow (in French: crankcase gas mainly from leaks at the level of the segmentation), the oil consumption and can especially to reduce the temperature of the exhaust gas. This reduction slows down the activation of the post-treatment elements of these gases.
- the nozzles are provided in connection with the main ramp of the lubrication circuit which feeds the crankshaft bearings, the big-end bearings and the rise to the cylinder head.
- This ramp may provide a passive valve for each nozzle or a flow control solenoid valve located upstream of the nozzles.
- the publication FR2 973 070 discloses an oil supply system for lubricating an internal combustion engine and for cooling the pistons, comprising a first ramp of oil intended for lubricating the engine, a second oil supply ramp for the engine. piston cooling, an oil pump designed to the circulation of oil in the two circuits and a pilot valve arranged upstream of the second ramp to supply the cooling circuit according to the operation of the engine.
- the valve is thus in the closed position to facilitate the temperature rise of the engine and then in the open position to cool the engine elements among which the pistons.
- the system requires two separate feed ramps and a pilot valve and valve control means which makes the system expensive.
- the oil supply is controlled according to the pressure (which controls the opening of the valves) with the use of measuring means and actuating motors or engine control (in the case a solenoid valve).
- the disadvantage is that for powers (or loads) below the maximum power, the nozzle flow is higher than the needs, which generates a fuel consumption higher than the needs to drive the oil pump.
- crankcase which is complex and expensive, and specific jets require extensive wiring in a hostile environment (oil, moving parts, etc.).
- an object of the invention is in particular to remedy these disadvantages of the prior art. More specifically, an object of the invention is to provide an oil circuit for limiting the oil flow just needed to ensure on the one hand, the cooling of the various bodies at different engine speeds and a reduction of fuel consumption, and secondly, to limit and promote a rise in temperature of these organs. Another objective of the invention is to propose a simple, universal and inexpensive thermal management solution.
- an oil circuit for an internal combustion engine comprising a substantially cylindrical ramp and having an oil inlet and oil outlets for supplying oil to various members of said engine and comprising a flow control system.
- of oil comprising means for closing the supply outlets, movable in the ramp and set in motion by an actuating means, characterized in that said actuating means is calibrated at a nominal pressure of oil passing through the circuit and able to set in motion the closing means of the oil supply outlets in case of exceeding the nominal pressure of oil.
- these flow control means are a simple and universal solution for managing the oil supply means of the engine components.
- the same functionality is obtained as a complete and complex system comprising a second ramp dedicated to the lubrication and cooling of certain engine components.
- the mechanical actuation means provides a regulation of the oil flow according to pressure levels of the circulating oil.
- the flow control means or inlet adapted to receive oil, an outlet passing through at least a portion of this oil and a longitudinal wall traversed by passages for the circulation of the oil.
- the actuating means is adapted to rotate a cylindrical actuating tube about its axis of revolution connected to the closing means.
- the actuating means is connected to an actuating tube which it pivots about its axis.
- the actuating means comprises a chamber having an opening accessible to the oil of the circuit and rotatably mounted against a restoring force.
- the actuating means is controlled by the oil circulating in the circuit. This oil partially passes through the actuating means and is intended to cause its operation. The oil entering the chamber exerts a pressure against the wall of said chamber which is then slid to cause a change in the volume of the chamber and thus a setting in motion of the actuating means.
- the actuating means is arranged at one end of the oil ramp.
- the actuating tube is connected to one end of the closure means.
- the closing means of the oil supply outlets comprise a cylindrical tube coaxial with the ramp and connected to the actuating tube.
- the pivotal movement of the actuating tube is taken up by the cylindrical tube.
- the cylindrical tube of the closing means is extended radially by arms carrying pallets adapted to close and open at least partially at least one of the oil supply outlets.
- the pallets are adapted to slide on the wall of the ramp.
- the cylindrical tube is advantageously adapted to close / open the openings in the wall of the oil ramp in a sliding movement against said wall.
- the closing means are movable in rotation and / or in translation in the ramp.
- the pivoting movement of the actuating tube can be converted into a translation movement of the cylindrical tube and therefore of the vanes sliding against the wall in the longitudinal direction of the ramp.
- the invention also relates to an internal combustion engine casing comprising at least one oil circuit as described above.
- Figure 1 is a schematic representation of an embodiment of the invention.
- Figure 2 is a schematic representation of a tube for insertion into a ramp according to the embodiment of the invention.
- Figure 3 is a schematic representation of an actuating means according to the invention.
- an oil circuit is for supplying oil to various components of an internal combustion engine (not shown) of a motor vehicle. More specifically, it allows to lubricate and cool some organs of said engine.
- a pump therefore sucks oil, via a strainer and a filtration module, contained in an oil sump, to supply the engine oil circuit (all these elements are not shown).
- the oil exiting the pump is then injected under pressure into a ramp 10 formed and formed in the crankcase of the engine (not shown).
- This ramp 10 is called the main ramp with reference to its function of routing the oil to the various organs and conduits of the engine.
- the ramp 10 shown in negative in FIG. 1 is cylindrical in shape and has an oil inlet 11 and first oil outlets 12 connected to cooling ducts towards different engine components such as nozzles, for example, and second oil outlets 13 connected to oil circulation ducts for lubricating and / or supplying oil to various members of said engine, such as the crankshaft bearings and the crankshaft bearings, as well as the ducts from the rise to the cylinder head (not shown).
- the oil ramp 10 is continuously supplied by the oil pump.
- At least one outlet 12 of the ramp 10 is connected by a cooling duct 18 to a nozzle (not shown) installed in the wall of a cylinder in which the piston slides (not shown) and at least one output 13 of the ramp 10 opens on an oil supply conduit of the crankshaft bearings (not shown).
- the nozzles are generally intended to inject a jet of oil towards the bottom of the pistons for their cooling.
- the cooling of the various members is however not necessary at all times of operation of the engine while the lubrication must in no case stop when said engine is in operation. Note that the invention applies to single-cylinder or multicylinder engines.
- the ramp 10 comprises a flow control device 14 comprising means 15 for regulating the flow of oil to the engine components. These flow control means 15 are movably arranged in the ramp 10 to close and open at least partially at least one of the outputs 12, 13 of the ramp 10.
- the regulating device also comprises means 16 for implementing movement for setting in motion these flow control means 15 or closure of the outputs 12, 13 of the main ramp.
- the flow control means 15 comprise at least one movable tube 20 in the ramp 10 and pallets 21 carried radially by arms 22 from the tube 20.
- Said tube 20 is mounted coaxial in the main ramp 10 and has a diameter smaller than that of the main ramp.
- Said pallets 21 are preferably substantially rectangular plates arranged to seal the first outlets 12 connected to the oil circulation ducts 18 for cooling in the ramp 10 when they are positioned vis-à-vis said outputs 12.
- the second outputs 13 connected to the lubrication and / or oil supply ducts 19 are not intended to be closed by said pallets, the oil can therefore to circulate continuously in said ducts.
- the tube 20 is mounted to pivot about its axis of revolution in the ramp 10 substantially by a quarter of a turn in order to cause the vanes 21 to pivot in sliding on the wall of the ramp 10, to close off or disengage at least one orifice 12 of the ramp 10 connected to the cooling duct 18.
- Said tube 20 is connected at one end to displacement means 16 which according to the proposed example consists of a rotation or a pivoting.
- the tube 20 is preferably steel obtained by molding with a diameter of the order of 5 mm but which may vary depending on the engine. Other materials can of course be considered, such as a plastic that can withstand the pressure and temperatures in the engine.
- the flow control is obtained by moving the tube 20 inside the ramp 10 so that the outputs 12 of the ramp 10 are closed by said vanes 21 when for example the engine is still cold and does not require cooling of the
- oil must be injected to said bodies for cooling.
- the oil pump sends oil at higher pressure to the main boom 10 and the outlets 12 connected to the cooling ducts 18 must be released for the flow of oil to these bodies.
- Said displacement means 16 for rotating or pivoting the regulating means 15 comprise an actuator 30 calibrated with the oil pressure circulating in the circuit.
- Said displacement means 16 represented in FIGS. 1 and 3 may comprise an actuating tube 31 whose diameter is substantially smaller than the inside diameter of the ramp 10 and rotatably mounted in a substantially cylindrical reservoir element 32, the tube of FIG. actuation 31 is preferably mounted coaxially with the main ramp and pivotally movable in said ramp and intended to cooperate with the tube 20 of the regulating means 15.
- the reservoir element 32 comprises a casing 33 substantially in the form of a solid cylinder comprising an actuating chamber 34 and an axial circular opening 35, the diameter of said axial opening 35 being substantially equal to the diameter of the actuating tube 31 to surround said actuating tube with a very small clearance.
- the actuating chamber 34 is formed substantially by a cylinder quarter extending from the circular opening, said cylinder quarter is closed by two walls at the axial ends. Said actuating chamber 34 thus extends longitudinally over a length substantially shorter than the length of the reservoir element 32 and angularly over an arc of greater than 45 ° and less than 180 °.
- the actuating tube 31 comprises an outer circular wall 36 and at least one substantially radial separation wall 37 extending longitudinally on said outer circular wall 36 of the actuating tube and adapted to share the actuating chamber 34 in two parts.
- actuator 38, 39 sealed from each other.
- the actuating tube 31 has a radial opening 40 opening on one side and close to the partition wall 37 in a first actuating portion 38.
- the tube 20 of the regulating means is preferably pressed into the actuating tube 31 and welded in said tube 31 so that the rotation of the actuating tube causes the rotation of the tube 20 of the control means.
- an elastic means 41 adapted to push the partition wall 36 so as to increase the volume of the second actuating portion 39 where said elastic means is positioned.
- the stiffness of the elastic means 41 is chosen as a function of the levels of the pressure of the oil.
- the actuating means 16 is placed at one end of the main ramp 10 in such a way that the actuating tube 31 is coupled to the tube 20 of the regulating means inserted in the main ramp 10 and that the inside of the main tube 10 actuation 31 is in the extension of the oil circuit.
- the casing 33, the actuating tube 31 with the separating sheet 32 may be made of steel or plastic obtained by molding for example.
- Oil is injected into the main ramp, then arrives in the actuating tube 31 and passes through the radial opening 40 in the actuating tube 31 for filling the first portion 38 of the actuating chamber 34.
- the stiffness of the elastic means 41 of the actuating means is such that from a certain oil pressure level, the elastic means retracts and the partition wall 37 is moved in the direction of the reduction of the second portion 39 of the actuating chamber. This movement is reflected by a rotation of the actuating tube 31 rotatable in the ramp 10 and therefore by a rotation of the tube 20 causing an opening or closing of the outlets 12 connected to the cooling ducts 18.
- the operation of the actuating means is simple and does not require an additional source of energy.
- the pivoting can be converted into a longitudinal translation movement along the axis of the main ramp of the cylindrical tube 20 of the regulating means.
