Definitions
- the invention relates to an engine component of a reciprocating engine. With a group of several juxtaposed cylinders, between each of which a web area runs.
- engine component includes in particular the cylinder crankcase, in which the actual cylinder or cylinder bores are formed, as well as the cylinder head, in which cylinder recesses corresponding to the cylinder bores formed in the cylinder crankcase are defined. These recesses should also be included in the present application by the term “cylinder”. They define in the cylinder head the upper portion of the combustion chamber and accommodate openings for the valves and a receptacle for the spark plug or for an injection valve.
- top and bottom are used below so that “top” denotes the cylinder head area and “bottom” the crankshaft area.
- a group of juxtaposed cylinders refers to a series of at least two cylinders forming a row of cylinders.
- the thermal stress is particularly high, since the actual combustion takes place here in reciprocating engines. With uncooled webs, the web temperatures in this upper region can increase so much that the so-called "web growth" occurs. This can cause the local thermal expansion in the upper land area to cause geometrical changes in the tube bore of the cylinder, negatively affecting performance and durability of the engine. Friction performance disadvantages and problems with sealing with the cylinder head gasket by lifting off can occur. This problem occurs in particular in the upper regions of the webs of the cylinder crankcase.
- the object of the present invention is therefore to provide an engine component in which the abovementioned disadvantages are at least partially overcome.
- the invention is characterized in that in the web region between two adjacent cylinders at least one, in particular transversely to a cylinder axis, extending fluid channel is formed, which connects a first and second region of a fluid channel system with each other, so that during operation of the internal combustion engine, a fluid from the first region flows through the fluid channel into the second region, thereby dissipating heat over the land area from the cylinder and cools the land area.
- Such web cooling is particularly suitable for high performance engines to protect the web material and to limit the unwanted web growth.
- a designed as a fluid channel cooling channel effectively cools the critical area of the engine component (cylinder crankcase, cylinder head) and also requires no passages in the top deck between the cylinder crankcase and cylinder head. This simplifies the design of the cylinder head gasket, for the larger effective sealing surfaces are available.
- a transverse to the cylinder axis fluid channel also prevents further disadvantages of crossing holes or correspondingly formed during casting cooling channels. They run in the region of the reversal point of the piston rings, reduce in this critical area the web material under circumstances so far that the shape of the tube of the cylinder bore is changed here and can result in spite of the cooling friction losses. In addition, sharp edges or very narrow radii arise at the crossing points, which may be disadvantageous because of the possible concentrations of stress in terms of the strength of the engine component.
- the fluid channel connects a first and second region of an oil channel system.
- the engine oil used primarily for lubrication and cooling of the bearing surfaces of the engine and has only a secondary cooling effect in the heat removal from the cylinder crankcase.
- the use of the engine oil as a primary cooling medium or cooling fluid also has advantages over the cooling water provided with antifreeze and inhibitors.
- the evaporation and coking temperatures of conventional engine oil qualities are significantly higher than those of cooling water mixtures and closer to the temperatures typically occurring in the upper web area.
- oil may be the more suitable cooling medium, even if a smaller amount of heat can be dissipated at the same volume flow.
- oil as the cooling medium, a continuous cooling effect without vapor bubbles is ensured even at high temperatures.
- a cooling circuit realized in the oil circuit can be advantageous for particularly temperature-critical engine areas such as the land area, since the cooling effect can be ensured in any operating condition with the engine running, thus minimizing the critical web growth becomes.
- the fluid channel is formed in the valve-near high-temperature region of the cylinder (in particular directly below the top deck).
- the temperature load is maximum and the cooling effect due to the high temperature difference between the cylinder interior and the cooling fluid best. Overheating of the web material as well as changes in geometry or thermal stresses caused by local temperature increases are thus effectively reduced.
- the fluid channel is formed as a bore in a mechanical machining process.
- very narrow channels with high precision in comparatively narrow, thin-walled (low remaining wall thickness between adjacent cylinders) web areas can be realized.
- the fluid channel in each case connects two oil-conducting tie-rod bores extending in an inclined plane.
- existing channels for the oil circuit can be used without the need for additional cavities in the engine component would have to be provided.
- the tie rod bore can also be used as a supply channel to guide the oil for cooling from the main oil gallery in the cylinder crankcase into the cylinder head, where it is passed through the fluid channel through the land area to the opposite tie rod bore. Thereafter, the oil is directed back into the cylinder crankcase to the main bearings where it is used for lubrication of the main and connecting rod bearings.
- one of the oil-carrying Wegankerbohrungen has an oil-carrying groove into which the fluid channel opens.
- the fluid channel is formed in a pressurized region of the oil channel system.
- the oil is guided for cooling with the available delivery pressure through the fluid channel.
- a defined volume flow and thus also over the cross section and the delivery volume definable heat transfer in the web area can be realized.
- the fluid channel is then formed between a piston ring region of a piston located in an upper piston inversion point and a top deck of the cylinder crankcase.
- the top deck of the cylinder crankcase represents the parting line to the cylinder head or to the cylinder head gasket.
- the highest thermal loads due to the combustion process in the cylinder are to be expected.
- no mechanical stress is to be expected here due to the piston rings resting on the cylinder wall, so that a fluid duct extending here is thermally very effective and mechanically represents only a reduced risk; even with a very small remaining wall thickness between the interior of the fluid channel and the actual cylinder bore. So occur in any possible deformations no frictional disadvantages, since the piston rings do not attack (more) on the inner wall of the cylinder during operation.
- Cooling of the web area can also be advantageous in such an embodiment since, as an alternative or in addition to a corresponding embodiment in the cylinder crankcase, the "hot" area of the cylinder can additionally be cooled and the material and operational risks mentioned are reduced.
- the invention relates to an internal combustion engine with an engine component according to the invention or a vehicle with such an internal combustion engine.
- An embodiment of an engine component according to the invention which is designed as a cylinder crankcase 1, show the Fig. 1 - 4th ,
- the Fig. 1 and 2 show a cross section through the cylinder crankcase 1 in the web area 2 between the two cylinders 3 (see Fig. 4 ).
- the section plane corresponds to that in Fig. 3 shown section plane BB.
- the web portion 2 extends between the two cylinders 3 of a group, which are arranged in a row. It runs parallel to the cylinder axes 4 and between the also extending parallel to the cylinder axes 4 Gebankerbohritch 5a, 5b, which extend from the top deck 6 to (not shown) counter flange of the (also not shown) crankshaft bearing.
- the tie rod hole 5a shown on the right is connected to the main oil gallery 7 of the oil passage system formed in the cylinder crankcase 1.
- the Switzerlandankerbohrung 5a is at its side with an oil-carrying groove 9 (see Fig. 2 ), which ensures a sufficient flow of oil even with an arranged in the Ceiankerbohrung 5a tie rod and low oil temperatures at elevated viscosity.
- the required oil flow can also be ensured by a suitable choice of the ratio between the tie rod diameter (smaller) and the diameter (larger) of the tie rod bore 5b.
- the tie rod 5b is connected at its lower end via an oil passage 10 with one of the crankshaft main bearings.
- an oil-carrying fluid channel 12 In the upper area just below the top deck 6 connects an oil-carrying fluid channel 12, the two Switzerlandankerbohritch 5a and 5b.
- the tie rod holes 5a and 5b, the main oil gallery 7, the oil passage 10 and the fluid channel 12 are part of the pressure oil system and are formed either during casting in the cylinder crankcase 1 (for example by inserting corresponding casting cores) and / or in mechanical processing methods (such as drilling , Rooms, etc.).
- the engine oil flows through the main oil gallery 7 in the tie rod hole 5a, there - possibly in the groove 9 - on, flows through the fluid channel 12 and is through the Glasankerbohrung 5b led to the oil passage 10, where it then exits into the sliding bearing gap of the crankshaft bearing.
- the oil flowing through the fluid channel 12 cools the web region 2 between the cylinders 3, in particular in the upper region, in which the highest temperatures occur during operation due to the combustion occurring there.
- the fluid channel 12 is formed in the web region 2 in a mechanical machining process (bore). This is done by the in Fig. 1 and 2 initially shown a bore 13 a from the motor outside first introduced into a Sprühöl Society 14, then a further bore 13 b (possibly with reduced diameter) between Sprühöl Society 14 and Switzerlandankerbohrung performed and finally 5 - again reduced diameter - the fluid channel 12 in the web area. 2 drilled. Thereafter, the holes 13a and 13b are closed by appropriate Verkugelept 15. This prevents a connection of the oil-carrying tie rod hole 5a with the spray oil region 14 or out of the engine.
- the number of Verkugelonne be reduced by a shift of Sprühölkanäle.
- the diameter of the fluid channel 12 is about 3 mm.
- the course of the fluid channel 12 is chosen so that it is located between the top deck 6 and the piston ring position, which occupy the piston rings when the piston is at its upper piston reversal point.
- such web cooling can also be designed optionally or additionally in the cooling water system.
- the cooling pockets 20 which are arranged on each side of the cylinders and extend into the web region 2 (cf. Fig. 1 and 2 ) is connected to a fluid passage 22 so that cooling water also flows through the land portion 2.
- a fluid channel 22 with a more effective cooling cross section 22 b can be carried out, which is poured into the cylinder crankcase 1.
- This cooling cross section 22b has, for example, an oval or lenticular shape, so that the effective cooling surfaces are increased to the cylinders 3.
- Advanced casting techniques also allow very small core dimensions and radii. This can possibly also be formed very narrow fluid channels in narrow, thin-walled web areas.
- the illustrated water cooling via the fluid channel 22 with the alternative cooling cross-sections 22a and 22b may be formed either alone or in addition to the cooling via the oil-carrying fluid channel 12 (see. Fig. 1 and 2 ).
- the 3 and 4 show a slightly differently designed, inventive cylinder crankcase 1, in which an exclusive water cooling of the web portion 2 is carried out immediately below the top deck 6.
- FIGS. 5 and 6 show an engine component designed as a cylinder head 101, in which the web region 102 between adjacent cylinders 3 is provided, for cooling purposes, with a fluid channel 112 or 122 connected to the oil circuit either via the tie rod bores 105a, 105b. Fig. 6 ) or via connecting channels 126 with core pockets 120 of the cylinder head 101 and thus connected to the cooling water circuit, and during operation of the engine by a cooling medium (eg., Cooling water or oil) is flowed through.
- a cooling medium eg., Cooling water or oil
- the fluid channels are either formed in a casting process or mechanically processed and optionally sealed with Verkugelept 15, 25.

Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Motorkomponente eines Hubkolbenmotors. Mit einer Gruppe mehrerer nebeneinander angeordneter Zylinder, zwischen denen jeweils ein Stegbereich verläuft.The invention relates to an engine component of a reciprocating engine. With a group of several juxtaposed cylinders, between each of which a web area runs.
Im vorliegenden Zusammenhang umfasst der Begriff "Motorkomponente" insbesondere das Zylinderkurbelgehäuse, in dem die eigentlichen Zylinder oder Zylinderbohrungen ausgebildet sind, sowie den Zylinderkopf, in dem zu den im Zylinderkurbelgehäuse ausgebildeten Zylinderbohrungen entsprechende Zylinderausnehmungen definiert sind. Diese Ausnehmungen sollen in der vorliegenden Anmeldung ebenfalls vom Begriff "Zylinder" umfasst sein. Sie definieren im Zylinderkopf den oberen Bereich des Brennraums und beherbergen Öffnungen für die Ventile und eine Aufnahme für die Zündkerze bzw. für ein Einspritzventil.In the present context, the term "engine component" includes in particular the cylinder crankcase, in which the actual cylinder or cylinder bores are formed, as well as the cylinder head, in which cylinder recesses corresponding to the cylinder bores formed in the cylinder crankcase are defined. These recesses should also be included in the present application by the term "cylinder". They define in the cylinder head the upper portion of the combustion chamber and accommodate openings for the valves and a receptacle for the spark plug or for an injection valve.
Die Begriffe "oben" und "unten" sind im Folgenden so verwendet, dass "oben" den Zylinderkopfbereich bezeichnet und "unten" den Kurbelwellenbereich. Eine Gruppe nebeneinander angeordneter Zylinder bezieht sich auf eine Reihe von wenigstens zwei Zylindern, die eine Zylinderreihe bilden.The terms "top" and "bottom" are used below so that "top" denotes the cylinder head area and "bottom" the crankshaft area. A group of juxtaposed cylinders refers to a series of at least two cylinders forming a row of cylinders.
Bei modernen und sehr kompakt gestalteten Hochleistungsmotoren sind insbesondere die Stegbereiche zwischen den Zylindern sehr hohen thermischen Belastungen ausgesetzt. Hier ist der verbleibende Stegbereich so dünn ausgebildet, dass die den Zylinder teilweise umfassende, zur Kühlung der Zylinder vorgesehene Wassertaschen im Stegbereich nicht ausgebildet werden können. Zusätzliche, parallel zur Zylinderachse verlaufende und zwischen den Wassertaschen verlaufende Kühlmittelkanäle wirken nur begrenzt in den Stegbereich hinein. (vgl. z.B.
Insbesondere im oberen Bereich der Zylinder ist die thermische Beanspruchung besonders hoch, da hier bei Hubkolbenmotoren die eigentliche Verbrennung stattfindet. Bei ungekühlten Stegen können die Stegtemperaturen in diesem oberen Bereich so stark ansteigen, dass das sogenannte "Stegwachstum" auftritt. Dies kann dazu führen, dass die wärmebedingte lokale Ausdehnung im oberen Stegbereich geometrische Veränderungen der Rohrgestalt der Zylinderbohrungen hervorruft, die sich negativ auf die Leistungsfähigkeit und Betriebsfestigkeit des Motors auswirken können. Reibleistungsnachteile und Probleme beim Abdichten mit der Zylinderkopfdichtung durch Abheben können auftreten. Dieses Problem tritt insbesondere in den oberen Bereichen der Stege des Zylinderkurbelgehäuses auf.In particular, in the upper region of the cylinder, the thermal stress is particularly high, since the actual combustion takes place here in reciprocating engines. With uncooled webs, the web temperatures in this upper region can increase so much that the so-called "web growth" occurs. This can cause the local thermal expansion in the upper land area to cause geometrical changes in the tube bore of the cylinder, negatively affecting performance and durability of the engine. Friction performance disadvantages and problems with sealing with the cylinder head gasket by lifting off can occur. This problem occurs in particular in the upper regions of the webs of the cylinder crankcase.
Es kann aber auch in den Stegbereichen im Zylinderkopf auftreten, wo eine ungleichmäßige Temperaturverteilung ebenfalls zu Verformungen führen kann, die beispielsweise nachteilige Auswirkungen auf die Ventilsitze oder die Dichtwirkung der Zylinderkopfdichtung haben können.However, it can also occur in the web areas in the cylinder head, where an uneven temperature distribution can also lead to deformations that may have adverse effects on the valve seats or the sealing effect of the cylinder head gasket, for example.
Ansätze, bei denen dem Stegbereich im Zylinderkurbelgehäuse von oben aus dem Zylinderkopf über schräg verlaufende aufeinanderstoßende Kühlwasserbohrungen Wärme entzogen werden soll (siehe z.B.
Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es daher, eine Motorkomponente bereitzustellen, bei der die oben genannten Nachteile wenigstens teilweise überwunden werden.The object of the present invention is therefore to provide an engine component in which the abovementioned disadvantages are at least partially overcome.
Diese Aufgabe wird durch die erfindungsgemäße Motorkomponente nach Anspruch 1, einen Verbrennungsmotor nach Anspruch 11 und ein Fahrzeug nach Anspruch 12 gelöst.This object is achieved by the engine component according to the invention according to
Die Erfindung zeichnet sich dadurch aus, dass im Stegbereich zwischen zwei benachbarten Zylindern wenigstens ein, insbesondere quer zu einer Zylinderachse, verlaufender Fluidkanal ausgebildet ist, der einen ersten und zweiten Bereich eines Fluidkanalsystems miteinander verbindet, so dass beim Betrieb des Verbrennungsmotors ein Fluid vom ersten Bereich durch den Fluidkanal in den zweiten Bereich strömt, dabei Wärme über den Stegbereich aus dem Zylinder abführt und den Stegbereich kühlt.The invention is characterized in that in the web region between two adjacent cylinders at least one, in particular transversely to a cylinder axis, extending fluid channel is formed, which connects a first and second region of a fluid channel system with each other, so that during operation of the internal combustion engine, a fluid from the first region flows through the fluid channel into the second region, thereby dissipating heat over the land area from the cylinder and cools the land area.
Eine solche Stegkühlung ist insbesondere bei Hochleistungsmotoren geeignet, den Stegwerkstoff zu schützen und das unerwünschte Stegwachstum zu begrenzen. Ein als Fluidkanal ausgebildeter Kühlkanal kühlt effektiv den kritischen Bereich der Motorkomponente (Zylinderkurbelgehäuse, Zylinderkopf) und erfordert zudem keine Durchtritte im Topdeck zwischen Zylinderkurbelgehäuse und Zylinderkopf. Dies vereinfacht die Gestaltung der Zylinderkopfdichtung, für die so größere wirksame Dichtflächen verfügbar sind.Such web cooling is particularly suitable for high performance engines to protect the web material and to limit the unwanted web growth. A designed as a fluid channel cooling channel effectively cools the critical area of the engine component (cylinder crankcase, cylinder head) and also requires no passages in the top deck between the cylinder crankcase and cylinder head. This simplifies the design of the cylinder head gasket, for the larger effective sealing surfaces are available.
Insbesondere bleiben in den "Zwickelbereichen" benachbarter Zylinder, in denen die Stege enden, wichtige zusammenhängende Dichtflächenbereiche bestehen, die bei bekannten kreuzgebohrten Wasserstegkühlungen, die zwischen Zylinderkopf und Zylinderkurbelgehäuse verlaufen, durchbrochen werden müssen.In particular, in the "gusset areas" of adjacent cylinders in which the webs terminate, there remain important contiguous sealing surface areas which are known in the art cross-drilled watercooling, which run between the cylinder head and the cylinder crankcase, must be broken.
Ein quer zur Zylinderachse verlaufender Fluidkanal verhindert auch weitere Nachteile sich kreuzender Bohrungen oder entsprechend beim Gießen ausgeformter Kühlkanäle. Sie verlaufen nämlich im Bereich des Umkehrpunktes der Kolbenringe, reduzieren in diesem kritischen Bereich das Stegmaterial unter Umständen so weit, dass die Form des Rohres der Zylinderbohrung hier verändert wird und sich trotz der Kühlung Reibleistungsnachteile ergeben können. Außerdem entstehen an den Kreuzungspunkten scharfe Kanten bzw. sehr enge Radien, die wegen der dort möglichen Spannungskonzentrationen hinsichtlich der Festigkeit der Motorkomponente nachteilig sein können.A transverse to the cylinder axis fluid channel also prevents further disadvantages of crossing holes or correspondingly formed during casting cooling channels. They run in the region of the reversal point of the piston rings, reduce in this critical area the web material under circumstances so far that the shape of the tube of the cylinder bore is changed here and can result in spite of the cooling friction losses. In addition, sharp edges or very narrow radii arise at the crossing points, which may be disadvantageous because of the possible concentrations of stress in terms of the strength of the engine component.
Dabei verbindet der Fluidkanal einen ersten und zweiten Bereich eines Ölkanalsystems. Üblicherweise dient das verwendete Motoröl primär zur Schmierung und Kühlung der Lagerflächen des Motors und hat nur eine sekundäre Kühlwirkung bei der Wärmeabfuhr aus dem Zylinderkurbelgehäuse.In this case, the fluid channel connects a first and second region of an oil channel system. Usually, the engine oil used primarily for lubrication and cooling of the bearing surfaces of the engine and has only a secondary cooling effect in the heat removal from the cylinder crankcase.
Die Verwendung des Motoröls als Primärkühlmedium oder Kühlfluid hat jedoch gegenüber dem mit Frostschutzmittel und Inhibitoren versehenen Kühlwasser auch Vorteile. Die Verdampfungs- und Verkokungstemperaturen von üblichen Motorölqualitäten liegen deutlich über denen von Kühlwassergemischen und näher an den im oberen Stegbereich üblicherweise auftretenden Temperaturen.However, the use of the engine oil as a primary cooling medium or cooling fluid also has advantages over the cooling water provided with antifreeze and inhibitors. The evaporation and coking temperatures of conventional engine oil qualities are significantly higher than those of cooling water mixtures and closer to the temperatures typically occurring in the upper web area.
Damit wird auch einer Gefahr entgegengewirkt, die bei einer Wasserkühlung im Hochtemperaturbereich und insbesondere bei engen Kanalquerschnitten auftreten kann. Unter Umständen kann es nämlich beim Verdampfen des Kühlwassers in solchen Zonen zum Filmsieden kommen. Es bilden sich stabile Dampfblasen bzw. -schichten oder gar stationäre Dampftaschen, so dass kritische Bereiche wie der Stegbereich wegen der isolierenden Wirkung eines Dampffilms überhaupt nicht mehr gekühlt werden.This also counteracts a risk that can occur in a water cooling in the high temperature range and in particular at narrow channel cross sections. Under certain circumstances, evaporation of the cooling water in such zones may cause film boiling. Stable vapor bubbles or layers or even stationary vapor pockets form, so that critical areas such as the land area are no longer cooled because of the insulating effect of a vapor film.
Damit kann Öl trotz der geringeren Wärmekapazität gegenüber Wasser das geeignetere Kühlmedium sein, und zwar selbst dann, wenn bei gleichem Volumenstrom eine geringere Wärmemenge abgeführt werden kann. Bei der Verwendung von Öl als Kühlmedium ist nämlich auch bei hohen Temperaturen eine kontinuierliche Kühlwirkung ohne Dampfblasen sichergestellt.Thus, despite the lower heat capacity to water, oil may be the more suitable cooling medium, even if a smaller amount of heat can be dissipated at the same volume flow. When using oil as the cooling medium, a continuous cooling effect without vapor bubbles is ensured even at high temperatures.
Für moderne Motorenkonzepte, bei denen im Warmlaufbetrieb des Motors der Kühlwasserkreislauf zunächst steht, kann ein im Ölkreislauf realisierter Kühlkreislauf für besonders temperaturkritische Motorbereiche wie dem Stegbereich vorteilhaft sein, da die Kühlwirkung in jedem Betriebszustand bei laufendem Motor sichergestellt werden kann, und so das kritische Stegwachstum minimiert wird.For modern engine concepts in which the cooling water circuit is initially in warm-up operation of the engine, a cooling circuit realized in the oil circuit can be advantageous for particularly temperature-critical engine areas such as the land area, since the cooling effect can be ensured in any operating condition with the engine running, thus minimizing the critical web growth becomes.
Weitere vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den Unteransprüchen und der folgenden Beschreibung bevorzugter Ausführungsbeispiele der vorliegenden Erfindung.Further advantageous embodiments of the invention will become apparent from the subclaims and the following description of preferred embodiments of the present invention.
Es gibt Ausführungen, bei denen der Fluidkanal im ventilnahen Hochtemperaturbereich des Zylinders ausgebildet ist (insbesondere unmittelbar unterhalb des Topdecks). In diesem Bereich ist die Temperaturbelastung maximal und die Kühlwirkung durch den hohen Temperaturunterschied zwischen Zylinderinnenraum und Kühlfluid am besten. Überhitzung des Stegwerkstoffs sowie durch lokale Temperaturerhöhungen hervorgerufene Veränderungen der Geometrie oder Wärmespannungen werden so wirksam reduziert.There are embodiments in which the fluid channel is formed in the valve-near high-temperature region of the cylinder (in particular directly below the top deck). In this range, the temperature load is maximum and the cooling effect due to the high temperature difference between the cylinder interior and the cooling fluid best. Overheating of the web material as well as changes in geometry or thermal stresses caused by local temperature increases are thus effectively reduced.
Es gibt Ausführungen, bei denen der Fluidkanal als Bohrung in einem mechanischen Bearbeitungsverfahren ausgebildet ist. So sind auch sehr enge Kanäle mit hoher Präzision in vergleichsweise schmalen, dünnwandigen (niedrige verbleibende Wandstärke zwischen benachbarten Zylindern) Stegbereichen realisierbar.There are embodiments in which the fluid channel is formed as a bore in a mechanical machining process. Thus, very narrow channels with high precision in comparatively narrow, thin-walled (low remaining wall thickness between adjacent cylinders) web areas can be realized.
Es gibt Ausführungen, bei denen der Fluidkanal jeweils zwei in einer Stegebene verlaufende ölführende Zugankerbohrungen miteinander verbindet. Bei so einer Ausführung können bereits vorhandene Kanäle für den Ölkreislauf genutzt werden, ohne dass dazu weitere Hohlräume in der Motorkomponente vorgesehen werden müssten. Die Zugankerbohrung kann auch als Zufuhrkanal genutzt werden, um das Öl zur Kühlung aus der Hauptölgalerie im Zylinderkurbelgehäuse in den Zylinderkopf zu führen, wo es durch den Fluidkanal durch den Stegbereich zur gegenüberliegenden Zugankerbohrung weitergeleitet wird. Danach wird das Öl zurück in das Zylinderkurbelgehäuse zu den Hauptlagern geleitet wo es für die Schmierung der Haupt- und Pleuellager verwendet wird.There are embodiments in which the fluid channel in each case connects two oil-conducting tie-rod bores extending in an inclined plane. In such an embodiment, existing channels for the oil circuit can be used without the need for additional cavities in the engine component would have to be provided. The tie rod bore can also be used as a supply channel to guide the oil for cooling from the main oil gallery in the cylinder crankcase into the cylinder head, where it is passed through the fluid channel through the land area to the opposite tie rod bore. Thereafter, the oil is directed back into the cylinder crankcase to the main bearings where it is used for lubrication of the main and connecting rod bearings.
Es gibt Ausführungen, bei welchen eine der ölführenden Zugankerbohrungen eine ölführende Nut aufweist, in die der Fluidkanal mündet. Durch diese Maßnahme kann das Fördervolumen in der Zugankerbohrung erhöht werden, ohne dass der Bohrungsquerschnitt insgesamt erhöht werden müsste. Auch bei exzentrische Aufnahme der Zuganker in den Zugankerbohrungen wird so eine ausreichende Ölversorgung sichergestellt.There are embodiments in which one of the oil-carrying Zugankerbohrungen has an oil-carrying groove into which the fluid channel opens. By this measure, the delivery volume can be increased in the tie rod bore, without the bore cross section would have to be increased overall. Even with eccentric absorption of the tie rods in Zugankerbohrungen so a sufficient supply of oil is ensured.
Es gibt Ausführungen, bei denen der Fluidkanal in einem druckführenden Bereich des Ölkanalsystems ausgebildet ist. Damit wird das Öl zur Kühlung mit dem zur Verfügung stehenden Förderdruck durch den Fluidkanal geführt. Damit kann ein definierter Volumenstrom und damit auch ein über den Querschnitt und das Fördervolumen definierbarer Wärmetransport im Stegbereich realisiert werden.There are embodiments in which the fluid channel is formed in a pressurized region of the oil channel system. Thus, the oil is guided for cooling with the available delivery pressure through the fluid channel. Thus, a defined volume flow and thus also over the cross section and the delivery volume definable heat transfer in the web area can be realized.
Es gibt Ausführungen, bei denen die Motorkomponente als Zylinderkurbelgehäuse ausgebildet ist. Hier ist das Temperaturproblem im oberen Stegbereich - gerade bei sehr dünnen Stegen - besonders ausgeprägt und die Kühlwirkung dort auch entsprechend effektiv.There are versions in which the engine component is designed as a cylinder crankcase. Here, the temperature problem in the upper web area - especially with very thin webs - particularly pronounced and the cooling effect there also correspondingly effective.
Es gibt Ausführungen, bei welchen der Fluidkanal dann zwischen einem Kolbenringbereich eines in einem oberen Kolbenumkehrpunkt befindlichen Kolbens und einem Topdeck des Zylinderkurbelgehäuses ausgebildet ist. Das Topdeck des Zylinderkurbelgehäuses stellt die Trennebene zum Zylinderkopf bzw. zur Zylinderkopfdichtung dar. Zwischen dieser Ebene und oberhalb des angesprochenen Kolbenringbereichs sind die höchsten thermischen Belastungen durch den Verbrennungsvorgang im Zylinder zu erwarten. Gleichzeitig ist hier keine mechanische Beanspruchung durch die an der Zylinderwand anliegenden Kolbenringe zu erwarten, so dass ein hier verlaufenden Fluidkanal thermisch sehr wirkungsvoll ist und mechanisch nur ein reduziertes Risiko darstellt; selbst bei einer sehr geringen verbleibenden Restwandstärke zwischen dem Innenraum des Fluidkanals und der eigentlichen Zylinderbohrung. So treten auch bei eventuell möglichen Verformungen keine Reibleistungsnachteile auf, da hier die Kolbenringe im Betrieb nicht (mehr) an der Innenwandung des Zylinders angreifen.There are embodiments in which the fluid channel is then formed between a piston ring region of a piston located in an upper piston inversion point and a top deck of the cylinder crankcase. The top deck of the cylinder crankcase represents the parting line to the cylinder head or to the cylinder head gasket. Between this level and above the addressed piston ring area, the highest thermal loads due to the combustion process in the cylinder are to be expected. At the same time, no mechanical stress is to be expected here due to the piston rings resting on the cylinder wall, so that a fluid duct extending here is thermally very effective and mechanically represents only a reduced risk; even with a very small remaining wall thickness between the interior of the fluid channel and the actual cylinder bore. So occur in any possible deformations no frictional disadvantages, since the piston rings do not attack (more) on the inner wall of the cylinder during operation.
Es gibt auch Ausführungen, bei denen ein Fluidkanal als Teil des Ölkreislaufes und ein weiterer Fluidkanal als Teil des Kühlwasserkreislaufes gemeinsam angeordnet sind. So eine Doppelkühlung kann den Kühleffekt verbessern und differenzieren. In der Warmlaufphase - also bei möglicherweise stehendem Kühlwasserkreislauf - kühlt auf jeden Fall das durchströmende Motoröl. Im Normalbetrieb nach dem Warmlaufen oder bei einer sehr hohen Belastung kühlt zusätzlich der zweite Fluidkanal im Kühlwasserkreislauf. Durch die zusätzliche Teil- oder Vorkühlung durch den Ölkreislauf wird dabei auch das Risiko einer Überhitzung des Kühlwassers in diesem Hochtemperaturbereich verringert, so dass dort die Gefahr von Dampf- oder Gasblasen oder die einer Zersetzung von Kühlwasserbestandteilen reduziert ist.There are also embodiments in which a fluid channel as part of the oil circuit and a further fluid channel are arranged in common as part of the cooling water circuit. Such a double cooling can improve and differentiate the cooling effect. In the warm-up phase - in other words, if the cooling water circuit is possibly stationary - the engine oil flowing through cools in any case. In normal operation after warming up or at a very high load additionally cools the second fluid channel in the cooling water circuit. Due to the additional partial or pre-cooling through the oil circuit while the risk of overheating of the cooling water is reduced in this high temperature range, so that there is reduced the risk of vapor or gas bubbles or a decomposition of cooling water components.
Bei einer Ausführung, bei der ein Fluidkanal im Kühlwasserkreislauf vorgesehen ist, wird durch eine geeignete Drosselung des Kühlwasserstroms im Wassermantel des Zylinderkurbelgehäuses sichergestellt, dass ein ausreichender Volumenstrom durch die Fluidkanäle in den Stegbereichen geführt (parallele Querdurchströmung) wird.In an embodiment in which a fluid channel is provided in the cooling water circuit, it is ensured by a suitable throttling of the cooling water flow in the water jacket of the cylinder crankcase that a sufficient volume flow through the fluid channels in the land areas out (parallel cross-flow).
Es gibt auch Ausführungen, bei denen die Motorkomponente als Zylinderkopf ausgebildet ist. Auch bei so einer Ausführung kann eine Kühlung des Stegbereiches vorteilhaft sein, da so alternativ oder in Ergänzung zu einer entsprechenden Ausführung im Zylinderkurbelgehäuse der "heiße" Bereich des Zylinders zusätzlich gekühlt werden kann und die angesprochenen Werkstoff- und Betriebsrisiken reduziert werden.There are also embodiments in which the engine component is designed as a cylinder head. Cooling of the web area can also be advantageous in such an embodiment since, as an alternative or in addition to a corresponding embodiment in the cylinder crankcase, the "hot" area of the cylinder can additionally be cooled and the material and operational risks mentioned are reduced.

Anstelle der optionalen Nut 9 in der Zugankerbohrung 5a kann der erforderliche Ölfluss auch durch eine entsprechende Wahl des Verhältnisses zwischen Zugankerdurchmesser (kleiner) und dem Durchmesser (größer) der Zugankerbohrung 5b sichergestellt werden. Die Zugankerbohrung 5b ist an ihrem unteren Ende über einen Ölkanal 10 mit einem der Kurbelwellenhauptlager verbunden.

Im Betrieb strömt das Motoröl durch die Hauptölgalerie 7 in die Zugankerbohrung 5a, steigt dort - ggf. in der Nut 9 - auf, strömt durch den Fluidkanal 12 und wird durch die Zugankerbohrung 5b zum Ölkanal 10 geführt, wo es dann in den Gleitlagerspalt des Kurbelwellenlagers austritt. Dabei kühlt das durch den Fluidkanal 12 strömende Öl den Stegbereich 2 zwischen den Zylindern 3, und zwar insbesondere im oberen Bereich, in dem sich durch die dort stattfindenden Verbrennungen im Betrieb die höchsten Temperaturen einstellen.In operation, the engine oil flows through the
