Definitions
- the invention relates to a hydraulic valve brake for a hydraulically variable valve train of an internal combustion engine.
- the hydraulic valve brake comprises a housing having a housing wall and a housing bottom, a piston extending axially in the housing, whose one end side bounds a hydraulic pressure chamber with the housing wall and the housing bottom and whose other end actuates a gas exchange valve, wherein the housing wall in the region of the pressure chamber of a or several overflow openings is interspersed, the opening cross-sections are controlled by a pressure chamber side end limiting the control edge of the piston.
- the invention also relates to an internal combustion engine with a hydraulic valve train having such a hydraulic valve brake.
- Hydraulic valve trains which operate according to the lost-motion principle and in which between the drive side, usually the cam of a camshaft, and the output side, ie the gas exchange valve, a so-called hydraulic linkage with variable Ab Kunststoffbarem hydraulic volume, is a hydraulic valve brake that controls the touchdown speed of the closing gas exchange valve independently of the cam position and limits it to preset values that are acoustically and mechanically acceptable.
- Hydraulic valve trains each with a generic hydraulic valve brake, are known, for example, from US Pat. No. 6,550,433 B2 and from EP 0 507 521 A1.
- the pressure chamber which decreases with closing gas exchange valve, is relieved of pressure via one or more overflow openings which run laterally in the housing wall and increasingly reduce their opening cross-sections from a pressure chamber-side control edge of the piston entering the housing become. Since the components of the hydraulic valve brake can not be economically produced with arbitrarily high precision, component tolerances remain, which result in different brake characteristics even within a single production lot.
- the change of charge with gas exchange valves which close at the same operating point with mutually different Hubverierin to different crank angles with respect to the Kolbentot is, but affects the performance and emissions behavior of the internal combustion engine.
- the present invention has for its object to provide with simple structural means Vorrausgueen for an improved performance of an internal combustion engine with hydraulic valve train and a hydraulic valve brake of the type mentioned.
- This object is achieved in that the axial distance of the control edge of the retracted completely in the housing piston is adjusted to the housing bottom by means of a spacer of predetermined thickness.
- This setting significantly reduces and ideally eliminates the effects of component tolerances that significantly affect the brake characteristics of the valve brake. Because shortly before the placing of the gas exchange valve whose delay curve at constant hydraulic fluid viscosity is highly dependent on the course of coverage of the controlled by the piston control edge opening cross-sections in the housing wall.
- Valve brakes set in accordance with the invention are suitable not only for valve trains with (automatic) hydraulic valve clearance compensation, but also for valve drives with (manual) mechanical valve clearance compensation, in which case large motors with hydraulically variable valve train are in focus in the latter case.
- the overlap profile of the piston control edge and opening cross-section (s) merely has an offset around the (uniformly set) valve clearance. Because in this case, the piston and the decisive for the axial distance housing bottom are spaced around the valve clearance when the gas exchange valve closes.
- the adjustment of the axial distance between the piston control edge and the housing bottom can be done in various ways.
- an adjustment is provided in discrete thickness graduations of the spacer, wherein the respective thickness is predetermined as a result of a previous test or measurement of the delay course of the unadjusted valve brake and accordingly removed the spacer of a group sorting and paired with the valve brake.
- the spacer can then be joined either firmly to the housing or fixed to the piston.
- the spacer causes in the path-time course of the retracting into the valve brake piston, that the cross sections of the overflow openings are covered only at a larger piston travel of the piston control edge.
- spacer is not necessarily limited to a single part, but may also include a group of two or more parts, which are then summed up as stacks of the predetermined thickness. Due to the variety of possible combinations, the group sorting can be limited to a few individual thicknesses and, in the limiting case, to a single thickness in this case.
- the spacer may be integrally formed as a non-separate part as a projection of the piston on the pressure chamber side end face or as a projection of the housing on the housing bottom.
- the axial distance can then be adjusted by machining the projection thickness.

- the following components are shown:
- a non-return valve 1 1 opening in the direction of the medium-pressure space, via which the medium-pressure space is connected to the lubricant circuit of the internal combustion engine
- the variability of the valve lift is generated by the fact that the high-pressure space 8 between the master piston 5 and the slave piston 6 'acts as a so-called hydraulic linkage, the hydraulic volume displaced by the master piston proportional to the stroke of the cam 4, neglecting leaks, depending on the Opening time and the opening duration of the hydraulic valve 7 in a first, the slave piston acting on sub-volume and in a second, in the medium-pressure chamber 9 including piston accumulator 10 and in the low-pressure chamber 12 outflowing partial volume is split.
- the slave piston 6 ' is equipped with a hydraulic valve brake 14', which reduces the contact speed of the closing gas exchange valve 2 decoupled from the movement of the cam 4 to a mechanically and acoustically acceptable level.
- the valve brake is a throttle gap, which is formed during the final closing phase of the gas exchange valve by the overlap of a cylindrical projection 15 on the pressure chamber side end face of the slave piston with an overflow 16 which extends concentrically to the slave piston housing wall 17 ' ,
- Figure 2 shows the slave side of a hydraulically variable valve train of a large engine, the gas exchange valves 2 are actuated via rocker arm 18 with mechanical valve clearance compensation.
- the highly schematic representation is with respect to the valve train on the hydraulic valve brake 14 with housing 19 and slave piston, hereinafter referred to as piston 6, reduced.
- the hollow-cylindrical housing with a housing wall 17 and a housing bottom 20 serves to guide the piston traveling axially therein, one end of which with the housing wall and the housing bottom defining a hydraulic pressure chamber 21.
- the other end of the piston actuates the gas exchange valve 2 by means of the mechanical valve clearance compensation device in the form of a valve clearance adjustment screw 22 in the rocker arm.
- overflow openings 23 and 24 via which the pressure chamber 21 communicates with the sensor-side hydraulic system (not shown here) run (see FIG. 1).
- the overflow opening 23 serves with a relatively large opening cross-section as the main flow opening, via which, when the piston 6 moves in and out, the lowest possible volume flow reaches and leaves the pressure chamber.
- the overflow opening 24 forms with a relatively small opening A cross section of the flow restrictor, over which the pressure chamber in the final closing phase of the gas exchange valve 2 can relieve only under significant delay of the retracting piston.
- the control of the opening cross-sections via a control edge 25 of the piston, which is formed in the simplified representation by the peripheral edge between the outer surface of the piston and the pressure chamber side end face.
- the illustration shows the piston 6 in fully retracted in the housing 19 position in which the piston during the valve clearance adjustment on the between see the adjusting screw 22 and the valve-side end face of the piston measured valve clearance L is.
- the valve clearance is largely or completely shifted to the pressure chamber side end side.
- the axial distance between the piston control edge 25 and the housing bottom 20 is adjusted according to the invention by means of a spacer 26, which influences the deceleration curve of the retracting into the housing piston so that all valve brakes of the internal combustion engine have substantially the same braking characteristics and that accordingly all gas exchange valves 2 of the internal combustion engine close with about the same stroke course.
- FIGS. 3a-c show the (still) unadjusted hydraulic valve brake 14 with three different retraction positions of the piston 6 during the basic measurement of the course of movement s (t).
- the temporal stroke course of the piston acted upon by a defined force is detected until it reaches the housing bottom 20.
- the measurement result is shown very simplified in Figure 4 based on the curve with thick line width.
- the upper branch of the curve with a large gradient, ie with a comparatively high closing speed of the gas exchange valve 2 3a corresponds to the piston position in Figure 3a until the pressure chamber 21 can still largely unrestricted over the main flow opening 23 relieve.
- the subsequent branch of the curve with medium gradient, ie with a comparatively average closing speed corresponds to the piston position in Figure 3b, wherein the piston control edge 25, the main flow opening already completely covered and the pressure relief mainly only via the throttle flow opening 24 takes place.
- the lower curve branch with a small gradient, ie with low closing speed corresponds to the piston position in Figure 3c, wherein the piston control edge completely covers both the main flow opening and the throttle flow opening and the pressure relief only via leakage gaps and ggfls. Further, not shown here Drosselstromöffnun- conditions in the housing bottom 20 is carried out.
- the measured curve of a relatively “slow” valve brake is more in line with one of the right reference curves, so that this valve brake is assigned a spacer with a greater thickness than a relatively “fast” valve brake, which more closely matches one of the left reference curves and their course of motion already closer to the default setting.
- Figure 5 shows the valve brake 14 with the thus sorted and mounted spacer 26, by means of which the axial distance h between the piston control edge 25 and the housing bottom 20 is set offset by the predetermined thickness d with respect to the unconfined valve brake.
