Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein Wannensystem für eine Maschinengehäusestruktur einer Brennkraftmaschine nach dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1.The invention relates to a tray system for a machine housing structure of an internal combustion engine according to the preamble of patent claim 1.

Es ist eine Ölwanne bekannt, EP 1 264 970 B1 , die bereichsweise doppelwandig ist und eine Innenschale aus Kunststoff und einer Außenschale aus Metall aufweist. In dem durch die Innenschale und die Außenschale gebildeten Raum, strömt ein Kühlmittel für die Schmieröl aufnehmende Innenschale. Die Innenschale besitzt Abstützrippen, die an einem Boden und aufrechten Wänden der Innenschale anliegen. Und an einer Außenseite eines Bodens der Außenschale sind Kühlrippen vorgesehen. Darüber hinaus ist in die Ölwanne ein Wärmetauscher integriert, der die Wärme zwischen Kühlmittel und Umgebungsluft beeinflusst.There is an oil pan known EP 1 264 970 B1 , which is partially double-walled and has an inner shell made of plastic and an outer shell made of metal. In the space formed by the inner shell and the outer shell, a coolant for the lubricating oil receiving inner shell flows. The inner shell has Abstützrippen, which bear against a bottom and upright walls of the inner shell. And on an outer side of a bottom of the outer shell cooling fins are provided. In addition, a heat exchanger, which influences the heat between coolant and ambient air, is integrated in the oil sump.

Die FR 2 721 975 A1 gibt eine Ölwanne wieder, die an ihrer Unterseite mehrere Kühlkanäle umfasst. Die Kühlkanäle sind an den Kühlkreislauf einer Brennkraftmaschine angeschlossen, und sie werden vom Medium des Kühlkreislaufs durchströmt. In der Ölwanne und den Kühlkanälen sind Rippen vorgesehen.The FR 2 721 975 A1 is an oil pan again, which includes several cooling channels on its underside. The cooling channels are connected to the cooling circuit of an internal combustion engine, and they are flowed through by the medium of the cooling circuit. Ribs are provided in the sump and cooling channels.

Aus der DE 31 42 327 A1 geht eine BKM mit einer doppelten Wandung hervor. Ihre Wände bilden einen Hohlraum, durch den zwischen Einlass- und Auslassöffnung ein Kühlmittel strömt. Das durch den Hohlraum strömende Kühlmittel wirkt als luftschalldämmende Wandverdickung.From the DE 31 42 327 A1 A BKM comes out with a double wall. Their walls form a cavity through which a coolant flows between the inlet and outlet openings. The coolant flowing through the cavity acts as an airborne wall thickening.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, ein zur Aufnahme von mittels Kühlflüssigkeit zu entwärmendem Schmieröl ausgebildetem Wannensystem für eine Brennkraftmaschine zu konzipieren, das gestaltungseinfach, funktionsoptimiert und leicht mit einem Maschinengehäuse der Brennkraftmaschine zu vereinen ist.The object of the invention is to conceive a trained for receiving by means of cooling liquid to be Entwärmendem lubricating oil pan system for an internal combustion engine, the design is simple, functionally optimized and easy to unite with a machine housing of the internal combustion engine.

Nach der Erfindung wird diese Aufgabe durch die Merkmale des Anspruchs 1 gelöst. Weitere, die Erfindung ausgestaltenden Merkmale sind in den Unteransprüchen enthalten.According to the invention, this object is solved by the features of claim 1. Further, the invention ausgestaltenden features are included in the subclaims.

Die mit der Erfindung hauptsächlich erzielten Vorteile sind darin zu sehen, dass die Innenwand und die Außenwand des Wannensystems sich mit definierter Konstruktionsleistung bestimmungsorientiert darstellen lassen. Dabei sind die Innenwanne und die Außenwanne aus Metall, vorzugsweise aus Leichtmetall hergestellt und weisen eine vorteilhafte Festigkeit und Wärmeleitfähigkeit auf. Und das besonders ausgeklügelte Kühlrippensystem, vor allem am Boden und den aufrechten Wänden der Innenwand, ermöglicht einen optimierten Wärmübergang zwischen vom Kühlmittel der Brennkraftmaschine beaufschlagter Innenwanne und dem Schmieröl der besagten Brennkraftmaschine. Hervorzuheben in diesem Zusammenhang ist auch das Abstützsystem zwischen den Böden der Innenwanne und der Außenwanne sowie auch der gewählte Anschluss der aufrechten Wände der zuletzt genannten Wannen an die Maschinengehäusestruktur der Brennkraftmaschine. Für entsprechende Einsatzfälle kann das Kühlrippensystem auch an der Außenseite der aufrechten Wände der Innenwanne vorgesehen sein.The advantages achieved by the invention are to be seen in the fact that the inner wall and the outer wall of the bathtub system can be represented with a defined design performance determination oriented. The inner tub and the outer tub made of metal, preferably made of light metal and have an advantageous strength and thermal conductivity. And the particularly sophisticated cooling fin system, especially on the ground and the upright walls of the inner wall, allows an optimized heat transfer between the coolant of the internal combustion engine acted upon inner trough and the lubricating oil of said internal combustion engine. Emphasizing in this context is also the support system between the bottoms of the inner tub and the outer tub as well as the selected connection of the upright walls of the latter tubs to the engine housing structure of the internal combustion engine. For appropriate applications, the cooling fin system may also be provided on the outside of the upright walls of the inner tub.

Das Abstützsystem ist deshalb Beispiel gebend konstruiert, weil es eine einen Lagerbolzen besitzenden Stützzapfen am Boden der Innenwanne aufweist, der auf einer Aufnahmebuchse des Bodens der Außenwanne aufliegt, wobei der Lagerbolzen mit einer Bohrung der Aufnahmebuchse in Wirkverbindung steht. Funktionserweitert wird das Abstützsystem dadurch, dass der Lagerbolzen mit einer Ölablassschraube versehen ist. Konstruktiv geschickt gelöst ist, dass freie Enden der Innenwanne und der Außenwanne als Stützen ausgebildet sind, die mit Gegenstützen eines Verbindungsgehäuses der Maschinengehäusestruktur unter definierter Stützlast zusammenwirken. Optimiert wird letztere Lösung noch dadurch, dass die Stützen und die Gegenstützen durch eine gemeinsame Ebene zwischen der Innenwanne und der Außenwanne bzw. dem Verbindungsgehäuse begrenzt werden.The support system is exemplary constructed because it has a bearing pin owning a support pin at the bottom of the inner tub, which rests on a receiving socket of the bottom of the outer tub, wherein the bearing pin is in operative connection with a bore of the receiving socket. Functionally, the support system is extended by the fact that the bearing pin is provided with an oil drain plug. Constructively cleverly solved is that free ends of the inner tub and the outer tub are designed as supports, which cooperate with counter-supports of a connection housing of the machine housing structure under a defined support load. The latter solution is further optimized by the fact that the supports and the counter supports are delimited by a common plane between the inner tub and the outer tub or the connecting housing.

Das Kühlrippensystem setzt Maßstäbe in der Weise, dass es mehrere bspw. gleichmäßig verteilte Bodenkühlrippen an einer Innenseite des Bodens sowie Wandkühlrippen an einer Innenseite der aufrechten Wände der der Innenwanne umfasst, welche Bodenkühlrippen und die Wandkühlrippen im Wesentlichen senkrecht zum Boden bzw. den aufrechten Wände der Innenwand ausgerichtet sind. Dabei trägt zur besonderen Effizienz des Kühlrippensystems bei, dass sich zumindest ein der Bodenkühlrippen über eine definierte Teilhöhe einer Gesamthöhe der aufrechten Wände der Innenwanne erstreckt. Dies wird dadurch unterstützt, dass die Teilhöhe z.B. durch das Produkt 0,5 x Gesamthöhe der aufrechten Wände der Innenwanne definiert wird. Wirkungsverbessernd wirkt sich einerseits noch aus, dass zumindest ein Teil der Wandkühlrippen sich in etwa über die Teilhöhe der Bodenkühlrippen erstreckt und andererseits, dass eine erste Länge der Wandkühlrippen an der Außenseite der aufrechten Wände der Innenwanne ca. 12 bis 15 mm beträgt. Zur Effizienzoptimierung tragen auch bei, dass eine zweite Länge der Wandkühlrippen an der Außenseite der Innenwanne tragen auch bei, dass zum einen eine zweite Länge der Wandkühlrippen an der Innenseite der aufrechten Wände der Innenwanne durch den Faktor 0,8 bis 0,9 x der ersten Länge und zum anderen der Abstand zumindest zwischen einem Teil der Bodenkühlrippen und der Wandkühlrippen durch das Produkt 2 x zweite Länge der Wandkühlrippen an der Außenseite der aufrechten Wände der Innenwanne definiert wird. Schließlich ist auch noch von Vorteil, wenn die Dicke zumindest eines Teils der Boden- und Wandkühlrippen zwischen 1,5 und 2,5 mmm beträgt.The fin system sets standards such that it includes a plurality of, for example, evenly distributed floor cooling fins on an inside of the floor, and wall fins on an inside of the upright walls of the inner trough, which floor cooling fins and the wall fins are substantially perpendicular to the floor or upright walls Interior wall are aligned. In this context, the particular efficiency of the cooling fin system contributes to the fact that at least one of the floor cooling fins extends over a defined partial height of an overall height of the upright walls of the inner trough. This is supported by the fact that the part height is e.g. is defined by the product 0.5 x total height of the upright walls of the inner tub. On the one hand, improving the effect on the one hand has the effect that at least part of the wall cooling fins extend approximately above the partial height of the floor cooling fins and, on the other hand, that a first length of wall cooling fins on the outside of the upright walls of the inner trough is approximately 12 to 15 mm. To optimize efficiency also contribute that a second length of the wall cooling fins on the outside of the inner tub also contribute that on the one hand a second length of the wall cooling fins on the inside of the upright walls of the inner tub by the factor 0.8 to 0.9 x the first Length and on the other hand, the distance between at least part of the floor cooling fins and the wall cooling fins is defined by the product 2 x second length of the wall cooling fins on the outside of the upright walls of the inner tub. Finally, it is also advantageous if the thickness of at least part of the floor and wall cooling fins is between 1.5 and 2.5 mm.
