Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Kanalsystem für eine Verbrennungskraftmaschine mit einem Mischgehäuse, einem Blow-By Kanal, welcher zur Entlüftung eines Kurbelgehäuses der Verbrennungskraftmaschine mit dem Kurbelgehäuse verbunden ist und in das Mischgehäuse mündet, und einem Frischluftkanal, der in das Mischgehäuse mündet, über den Frischluft zuführbar ist. Das Kanalsystem umfasst weiter einen Abgasrückführkanal, der in das Mischgehäuse mündet, über den ein Abgasstrom zuführbar ist und einen Ansaugkanal, über den ein Mischstrom abführbar ist.The present invention relates to a duct system for an internal combustion engine with a mixing housing, a blow-by channel, which is connected to the venting of a crankcase of the internal combustion engine with the crankcase and opens into the mixing housing, and a fresh air duct, which opens into the mixing housing, over the fresh air can be fed. The duct system further comprises an exhaust gas recirculation channel, which opens into the mixing housing, via which an exhaust gas stream can be fed and an intake duct, via which a mixed stream can be discharged.
Derartige Kanalsysteme sind aus dem Stand der Technik bekannt und dienen bei einem Verbrennungsmotor zur Rückführung von Abgasen zur Verbrennungskraftmaschine. Zusätzlich können solche Kanalsysteme gleichzeitig dazu verwendet werden, Blow-By Gase, welche beim Belüften des Kurbelgetriebegehäuses anfallen zur Verbrennungskraftmaschine zurückzuführen.Such duct systems are known from the prior art and are used in an internal combustion engine for the return of exhaust gases to the internal combustion engine. In addition, such duct systems can be used simultaneously to return blow-by gases, which arise when venting the crankcase to the internal combustion engine.

In dem Mischgehäuse werden die Frischluft, das Gas des Blow-By Kanals und das rückgeführte Abgas gemischt und zum Ansaugkanal geleitet.Channel systems are known from the prior art, in which a blow-by channel and an exhaust gas recirculation channel open into the mixing housing in an air flow between a fresh air duct mouth and a Ansaugkanalmündung.

Bei Kanalsystemen nach dem Stand der Technik besteht das Problem, dass die Strömung im Kanalsystem zu Strömungsgeräuschen am Blow-By Kanal führt.In prior art duct systems, there is the problem that the flow in the duct system results in flow noise at the blow-by duct.
Die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt somit darin, ein Kanalsystem für eine Verbrennungskraftmaschine zu schaffen, bei welchem es zu einer geringeren Geräuschentwicklung kommt.The object of the present invention is therefore to provide a duct system for an internal combustion engine, in which there is less noise.
Diese Aufgabe wird durch ein Kanalsystem für eine Verbrennungskraftmaschine mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 gelöst.This object is achieved by a channel system for an internal combustion engine with the features of claim 1.
Bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Kanalsystem mündet der Frischluftkanal und der Blow-By Kanal parallel in das Mischgehäuse. Die Kanalmittelachsen des Frischluftkanals und des Blow-By Kanals sind somit wenigstens im Bereich der Mündungen in das Mischgehäuse parallel zueinander. Dadurch ist die in das Mischgehäuse eingeleitete Strömung beider Kanäle im Wesentlichen ebenfalls parallel zueinander. Dadurch wird vermieden, dass die Frischluft über die Mündung des Blow-By Kanals strömt. Die bei der Überströmung entstehenden Geräusche werden somit ebenfalls vermieden. Dadurch kann die Geräuschentwicklung in dem Kanalsystem verringert werden.In the channel system according to the invention, the fresh air channel and the blow-by channel opens into the mixing housing in parallel. The channel central axes of the fresh air channel and the blow-by channel are thus parallel to each other at least in the region of the mouths in the mixing housing. As a result, the flow of both channels introduced into the mixing housing is also essentially parallel to one another. This avoids that the fresh air flows over the mouth of the blow-by channel. The resulting noise in the overflow are thus also avoided. Thereby, the noise in the channel system can be reduced.
In einer bevorzugten Ausführung der Erfindung ist im Mischgehäuse ein Regelkörper drehbar angeordnet, welcher eine Strömung des Abgasrückführkanals und des Frischluftkanals abhängig voneinander regelt. Dadurch kann abhängig von dem Lastzustand der Verbrennungskraftmaschine der Anteil der Frischluft und der Anteil des rückgeführten Abgases abhängig voneinander geregelt werden. Dadurch ist es möglich, die rückgeführte Abgasmenge derart zu regeln, dass ein Optimum zwischen maximaler Leistung und maximaler Schadstoffreduktion erzielt wird.In a preferred embodiment of the invention, a control body is rotatably arranged in the mixing housing, which regulates a flow of the exhaust gas recirculation passage and the fresh air passage depending on each other. As a result, depending on the load condition of the Internal combustion engine, the proportion of fresh air and the proportion of recirculated exhaust gas are regulated depending on each other. This makes it possible to regulate the recirculated exhaust gas amount such that an optimum between maximum power and maximum pollutant reduction is achieved.
In einer weiteren bevorzugten Ausführung der Erfindung ist im Mischgehäuse ein Regelkörper drehbar angeordnet, welcher eine Strömung des Frischluftkanals, des Blow-By Kanals und des Abgasrückführkanals abhängig voneinander regelt. Dadurch kann abhängig von dem Lastzustand der Verbrennungskraftmaschine der Anteil der Frischluft, der Anteil des rückgeführten Abgases und der Anteil des Blow-By Gases abhängig voneinander geregelt werden. Dadurch ist es möglich, die rückgeführte Abgasmenge derart zu regeln, dass ein Optimum zwischen maximaler Leistung und maximaler Schadstoffreduktion erzielt wird. Zusätzlich kann vermieden werden, dass es zu einer Übersättigung an Blow-By Gas im Gasgemisch kommt.In a further preferred embodiment of the invention, a control body is rotatably arranged in the mixing housing, which regulates a flow of the fresh air channel, the blow-by channel and the exhaust gas recirculation channel depending on each other. As a result, depending on the load state of the internal combustion engine, the proportion of fresh air, the proportion of recirculated exhaust gas and the proportion of the blow-by gas can be regulated depending on each other. This makes it possible to regulate the recirculated exhaust gas amount such that an optimum between maximum power and maximum pollutant reduction is achieved. In addition, it can be avoided that there is a supersaturation of blow-by gas in the gas mixture.
Vorzugsweise sind ein Blow-By Kanal Austrittsquerschnitt und ein Frischluftkanalaustrittsquerschnitt in einer Ebene angeordnet. Die Ebene kann dabei jeden Winkel zu den Kanalmittelachsen aufweisen. Dadurch wird vermieden, dass es zu einer Überströmung der Blow-By Kanal Mündung kommt. Vorzugsweise ist die Ebene zu den Kanalmittelachsen zur Verbesserung der Regelbarkeit angestellt angeordnet.Preferably, a blow-by channel outlet cross-section and a fresh air duct outlet cross-section are arranged in a plane. The plane can have any angle to the central channel axes. This avoids that there is an overflow of the blow-by channel mouth. Preferably, the plane is arranged to the channel centerlines hired to improve the controllability.
In einer bevorzugten Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist der Regelkörper exzentrisch an einer Welle befestigt. Dadurch ist eine Anordnung möglich, bei welcher die Welle außerhalb eines Durchströmungsquerschnittes des Abgasrückführkanals angeordnet ist. Im Gegensatz zu einem Beispielsweise Butterfly-Ventil ist mit einem solchen Regelkörper eine druckverlustminimierende Regelung von zwei Kanälen möglich.In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the control body is mounted eccentrically on a shaft. As a result, an arrangement is possible in which the shaft is arranged outside a flow cross-section of the exhaust gas recirculation channel. In contrast to an example Butterfly valve with such a control body a pressure loss minimizing control of two channels is possible.
Vorzugsweise ist der Regelkörper eine Klappe. Eine Klappe ist eine einfache Möglichkeit, um die Strömung des Abgasrückführkanals und des Frischluftkanals abhängig voneinander zu regeln.Preferably, the control body is a flap. A flap is an easy way to regulate the flow of the exhaust gas recirculation channel and the fresh air channel depending on each other.
Vorteilhafterweise weist der Regelkörper eine erste Klappe, die den Frischluftkanal und den Blow-By Kanal regelt, und eine zweite Klappe, die den Abgaskanal regelt, und die mit der ersten Klappe verbunden ist, auf. Durch die Ausführung mit zwei Klappen kann die Anordnung der Welle zum Ventilsitz mit deutlich ungenauerer Toleranz erfolgen.Advantageously, the control body on a first flap, which controls the fresh air passage and the blow-by channel, and a second flap, which regulates the exhaust passage, and which is connected to the first flap on. Due to the design with two flaps, the arrangement of the shaft to the valve seat can be done with significantly less accurate tolerance.
Die Welle ist vorzugsweise außerhalb eines Hauptdurchströmquerschnitts des Frischluftkanals und des Abgasrückführkanals angeordnet. Die Welle liegt somit nicht in der Strömung des Mischstromes im Mischgehäuse in Richtung des Ansaugkanals. Dadurch wird die Strömung nicht durch die Welle gestört, so dass sich ein geringer Strömungswiderstand ergibt, wodurch dass größere Mischstrommengen zum Ansaugkanal und damit zur Verbrennungskraftmaschine abgeführt werden können.The shaft is preferably arranged outside of a Hauptdurchströmquerschnitts the fresh air passage and the exhaust gas recirculation passage. The shaft is thus not in the flow of the mixed stream in the mixing housing in the direction of the intake passage. As a result, the flow is not disturbed by the shaft, resulting in a low flow resistance, which means that larger amounts of mixed stream can be discharged to the intake passage and thus to the internal combustion engine.
In einer besonders vorteilhaften Ausführungsform sind der Frischluftkanal und der Blow-By Kanal in einem einstückigen Anschlussgehäuse integriert. Das Anschlussgehäuse ist dabei ein separates Teil, welches an dem Mischgehäuses befestigbar ist. Für den Blow-By Kanal und den Frischluftkanal ist somit lediglich ein einziges Bauteil notwendig, so dass die Teilezahl reduziert und die Montagezeit verringert wird. Dadurch kann das Kanalsystem wirtschaftlicher hergestellt werden.In a particularly advantageous embodiment, the fresh air duct and the blow-by duct are integrated in a one-piece connection housing. The connection housing is a separate part which can be fastened to the mixing housing. Thus, only a single component is necessary for the blow-by channel and the fresh air channel, so that the number of parts is reduced and the assembly time is reduced. As a result, the channel system can be made more economical.
In einer weiteren bevorzugten Ausbildung ist das Mischgehäuse direkt über eine Flanschfläche mit dem Anschlussgehäuse verbunden. Das Anschlussgehäuse kann dadurch auf einfache Weise mit dem Mischgehäuse verbunden werden, so dass das Kanalsystem noch wirtschaftlicher herstellbar ist.In a further preferred embodiment, the mixing housing is connected directly to the connection housing via a flange surface. The connection housing can be easily connected to the mixing housing, so that the channel system is even more economical to produce.
Vorzugsweise weist das Mischgehäuse drei Flanschflächen auf. An den Flanschflächen sind die in das Mischgehäuse mündenden Kanäle und der aus dem Mischgehäuse austretende Ansaugkanal angeschlossen, wobei für den Blow-By Kanal zusammen mit dem Frischluftkanal lediglich eine Flanschfläche vorgesehen ist. Die Kanäle können über die Flanschflächen auf einfache Weise mit dem Mischgehäuse verbunden werden, so dass das Kanalsystem wirtschaftlicher herstellbar ist.Preferably, the mixing housing has three flange surfaces. At the flange surfaces which open into the mixing housing channels and emerging from the mixing housing intake are connected, wherein for the blow-by channel together with the fresh air duct only a flange is provided. The channels can be connected via the flange easily with the mixing housing, so that the channel system is more economical to produce.
Vorteilhafterweise ist das Mischgehäuse einstückig mit einem Aktorgehäuse ausgebildet, in dem ein Aktor angeordnet ist, über den die Welle des Regelkörpers betätigbar ist. Dadurch wird die Teilezahl reduziert und der Montageaufwand verringert. Das Kanalsystem kann dadurch wirtschaftlicher hergestellt werden.Advantageously, the mixing housing is formed integrally with an actuator housing, in which an actuator is arranged, via which the shaft of the control body is actuated. This reduces the number of parts and reduces assembly costs. The channel system can be made more economical.
Es wird somit ein Kanalsystem für eine Verbrennungskraftmaschine geschaffen, bei welchem durch Vermeidung einer Überströmung des Blow-By Kanals die Geräuschentwicklung minimiert und die Effizienz des Blow-By Kanals erhöht wird.There is thus provided a duct system for an internal combustion engine, in which by avoiding an overflow of the blow-by channel, the noise is minimized and the efficiency of the blow-by channel is increased.

In dem Mischgehäuse 14 ist eine als Regelkörper 66 vorgesehene erste Klappe 70 angeordnet, welche die Strömung aus dem Blow-By Kanal 18 und dem Frischluftkanal 22 regelt. Die erste Klappe 70 ist in Form einer Zunge ausgebildet (siehe
Die erste Klappe 70 ist exzentrisch an einer Welle 86 befestigt, über die die erste Klappe 70 zusammen mit der zweiten Klappe 78 drehbar in dem Mischgehäuse 14 angeordnet sind.

Bei dem beschriebenen erfindungsgemäßen Kanalsystem wird eine Überströmung der Blow-By Kanal Mündung vermieden, so dass keine Geräusche auftreten, die bei einer Überströmung entstehen würden. Die Geräuschentwicklung des Kanalsystems wird dadurch erheblich reduziert und die Effizienz der Blow-By Einleitung verbessert.In the described channel system according to the invention, an overflow of the blow-by channel mouth is avoided so that no noise would occur that would arise in an overflow. The noise of the channel system is thereby significantly reduced and improves the efficiency of the blow-by introduction.
Es sollte deutlich sein, dass der Schutzbereich nicht auf das beschriebene Kanalsystem beschränkt ist, sondern verschiedene Modifikationen und konstruktive Änderungen denkbar sind. Beispielsweise ist eine Ausgestaltung denkbar, bei welcher der Blow-By Kanal und der Frischluftkanal parallel in das Anschlussgehäuse geführt werden, so dass ein Abknicken des Blow-By Kanals nicht notwendig ist. Auch sind verschiedene Ausgestaltungen für die erste und die zweite Klappe denkbar.It should be clear that the scope of protection is not limited to the described channel system, but various modifications and design changes are conceivable. For example, a configuration is conceivable in which the blow-by channel and the fresh air duct are guided in parallel in the connection housing, so that a kinking of the blow-by channel is not necessary.
