Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of cam follower roller devices used in automotive or industrial applications.
  • cam follower roller device in a fuel injection pump intended for an internal combustion engine, in particular of a motor vehicle.
  • Another advantageous application of the invention is the use of the device in a rocker system intended for controlling valves of an internal combustion piston engine.
  • Such a cam follower roller device generally comprises an outer tappet body, a pin mounted on the tappet body and a roller movable in rotation relative to the pin around its axis.
  • the roller collaborates with a cam synchronized with the internal combustion engine camshaft or crankshaft.
  • the rotation of the camshaft, or crankshaft leads to a periodic displacement of a piston of the pump that rests against the tappet body, to allow fuel to be delivered.
  • EP-A1-2 853 738 describes a device comprising such an insert supporting the pin while the tappet body supports said insert.
  • a cam follower roller device is generally delivered as a preassembled unit to a motor vehicle manufacturer or system supplier.
  • the axial length of the device may be adapted according to the application and the specification of the manufacturers or system suppliers. It is known to design a forged tappet body with adapted given dimensions for each application and for each manufacturer or system supplier.
  • One aim of the present invention is to provide a cam follower roller device with an adaptive and cost-saving design.
  • the cam follower roller device comprises a tappet body extending along an axis, an insert mounted in the tappet body, a pin mounted at least on said insert, and a roller mounted on said pin.
  • the device comprises a spacer provided with a main body extending along an axis, mounted into the tappet body and axially protruding outwards relative to said body.
  • the device further comprises at least one anti-friction and/or wear resistance ring mounted on an outer surface of the main body of the spacer, or on an outer surface of the tappet body, and radially protruding outwards relative to said outer surface.
  • Said anti-friction and/or wear resistance ring is mounted freely tiltable with respect to said body so as to allow an angular tilting of an axis of the said ring relative to the axis of said body.
  • the tappet body can have a standardized design for each application and for each manufacturer or system supplier.
  • the length of the spacer is the only feature of the device to be adapted for the different applications and manufacturers or system suppliers. This leads to a reduction of the manufacturing costs.
  • said ring since said ring is freely movable angularly relative to the associated body, said ring may handle misalignment between the axis of said body and the axis of the housing in operation. Said ring acts as a self-aligning ring in order that the axis of said ring may be coaxial to the axis of the housing. Accordingly, in operation, the pressure contact between the roller of the device and the cam is reduced.
  • said anti-friction and/or wear resistance ring is mounted into a groove formed on the outer surface of said body.
  • said outer surface may be deprived of such groove.
  • said anti-friction and/or wear resistance ring has an annular shape.
  • Said ring may be made of metal or plastic material.
  • the device comprises at least two anti-friction and/or wear resistance rings, one of the said rings being mounted on the main body of the spacer while the other ring being mounted on the tappet body.
  • the density of the material of the main body of said spacer may advantageously be smaller than that of the material of said tappet body. Accordingly, the weight of the device can be limited.
  • the device may further comprise an insert mounted in the tappet body, the pin being mounted at least on said insert.
  • the main body of the spacer may be mounted axially against the insert on the side opposite to the pin and the roller.
  • the insert comprises a central core and at least two side tabs each comprising a receiving housing into which is mounted an end of the pin.
  • the body of the spacer may be mounted into axial contact with the central core of the insert.
  • the tappet body may comprise axial blocking means for maintaining the pin into the receiving housings.
  • the pin is mounted on the tappet body.
  • a cam follower roller device 10 comprises an outer tappet housing or body 12 extending along an axis 12a, a shaft or pin 14 extending along an axis 14a perpendicular to the axis 12a, a roller 16 mounted on the pin and movable in rotation relative to said pin, and a stroke-transmission part or insert 18 mounted in said tappet body.
  • the insert 18 supports the pin 14.
  • the roller 16 is directly mounted on the pin 14.
  • a rolling bearing or a plain bearing may be radially interposed.
  • the device 10 further comprises a spacer 20 mounted axially against the insert 18 on the side opposite to the roller 16, and an outer anti-friction and/or wear resistance ring 22 mounted on said spacer.
  • the tappet body 12 is made in one part.
  • the body 12 has a tubular form.
  • the tappet body 12 comprises a cylindrical axial outer surface 12b and a cylindrical axial inner surface or bore (not referenced). Said inner bore delimits a cavity 23 inside which are located the insert 18 and the pin 14.
  • the roller 16 axially protrudes outwards with respect to an upper edge 12c of the tappet body 12.
  • the tappet body 12 is deprived of any through-hole extending between the outer surface 12a and the bore for mounting the pin 14.
  • the insert 18 is made in one part.
  • the insert 18 may preferably be made of metal, by example steel, or be made of plastic material.

  • the tabs 26, 28 of the insert extend from the core 24 towards the upper edge 12c of the tappet body.
  • the insert 18 has in cross-section a U-shape.
  • the roller 16 is disposed between the tabs 26, 28.
  • a concave recess 30, 32 is provided at the free end of each tab to receive the pin 14. Both recesses 30, 32 extend through the tabs 26, 28 along the axis 14a and have the same diameter.
  • Recesses 30, 32 form receiving housings adapted to receive the ends of the pin 14. Each end of said pin 14 is supported by one of the two tabs 26, 28. The pin 14 is supported by the insert 18.
  • the tappet body 12 further comprises means 34, 36 for axially blocking the pin 14 and the roller 16 relative to said body.
  • the axial blocking means 34, 36 block the translation of pin 14 in a direction from a lower edge 12d of the tappet towards the upper edge 12c.
  • the axial blocking means 34, 36 are integrally formed with the tappet body 12. In the illustrated example, these means 34, 36 are provided on the bore of the tappet body at the upper edge 12c.
  • the axial blocking means 34, 36 delimit receiving housings each facing one of the receiving housings 30, 32 of the insert to delimit together cylindrical bores for the ends of the pin 14.
  • the tappet body 12 is made from synthetic material, such as polyamide for example.
  • the tappet body 12 is advantageously formed by moulding.
  • the tappet body 12 may be made of metal, for example in an economic way by cutting, stamping and folding.
  • the tappet body 12 also comprises two pairs of two axial ribs 40, 42 provided on the bore of said body and which radially protrude inwards.
  • the ribs 40, respectively 42 extend axially the axial blocking means 34, respectively 36.
  • the ribs 40 are symmetrical to the ribs 42 with respect to a transverse axial plane passing through the centre of the roller 16.
  • the ribs 40, 42 of each pair are spaced apart one relative to another to delimit a space into which is located one of the tabs 26, 28 of the insert. Accordingly, each tab 26, 28 is located circumferentially between the two ribs 40, 42 of one pair.
  • Each tab 26, 28 abuts in the circumferential direction against one of the ribs 40, 42 of one pair on one side, and abuts against the other rib of said pair on the other side.
  • the ribs 40, 42 cooperate with the tabs 26, 28 to prevent the insert 18 from moving in the circumferential direction relative to the tappet body 12.
  • the spacer 20 axially bears against the insert 18 on the side opposite to the roller 16 and the pin 14.
  • the spacer 20 axially bears against the core 24 of the insert.
  • the spacer 20 extends into the cavity 23 delimited by the tappet body 12 and protrudes axially outwards with respect to the lower edge 12d of said body.
  • the lower edge 12d and the upper edge 12c delimit axially the tappet body 12.
  • the spacer 20 comprises a main body 44 extending along an axis 44a which is coaxial with the axis 12a of the tappet body.
  • the main body 44 is provided with an upper frontal radial surface 44b in axial contact with the insert 18, and more precisely with the core 24 of said insert.
  • the upper radial surface 44b is mounted axially against a lower surface of the core 24.
  • the body 44 also comprises a lower radial frontal surface 44c intended to come into contact with a movable element (not shown), such as a piston of a fuel injection pump.
  • the body 44 has substantially a cylindrical form.
  • the body 44 may have different shape, for example a U-shape.
  • the main body 44 of the spacer 20 may preferably be made of plastic material, for instance PA 6.6, or be made of metallic material such as aluminium.
  • the main body 44 of the spacer 20 is formed in one part by moulding.
  • the density of the material of the main body 44 is smaller than that of the material of the tappet body 12 in order to limit the weight of the device 10.
  • the spacer 20 is made in one part.
  • the spacer 20 may comprise two or more parts.
