Definitions
- the invention relates to an outlet flap valve, in particular a flap valve for closing and opening an outlet opening in a housing of a compression cylinder of a compressor.
- Compressors are used, for example, in brake systems of buses or trucks. Such compressors have one or more compression cylinders and are mounted directly on the engine of the vehicle. Frequently, reciprocating compressors are used which have a duty cycle with suction, compression and expulsion of air. During operation of the compressor, energy is consumed via the vehicle engine on the one hand due to compression work and on the other hand due to mechanical losses, such as, for example, friction of the piston rings or throttling losses of a disk valve.
- energy conservation is a major challenge.
- Auslasslamellenventile which, as shown in Fig. 1, Fig. 2a and Fig. 2b, from a lamella 1, the outlet openings 4 of a compression cylinder in a housing 9 of the compression cylinder closes and opens, from a bridge 2, which restricts a deformation of the lamella 1 in an opened state of the outlet openings 4, and consist of fastening elements 3.
- the discharge louver valve blocks the discharge ports 4 to prevent the already exhausted pressurized air from flowing back into the compression cylinder.
- the louver 1 is deflected away from the exhaust port by the flow of air to expel air into an exhaust passage.
- a valve plate is shown here, which is attached to a cylinder block. Alternatively, however, a separate valve plate is not absolutely necessary and the function of the separate valve plate can be exerted by a section integrated in the housing 9 of the compression cylinder.
- the object on which the invention is based is to provide an outlet lamella valve which reduces a pressure drop at the outlet lamella valve under given dimensional boundary conditions.
- the fastening elements can then fix a bridge, which limits maximum deformation of the lamella and thus determines its maximum radius of curvature, to given fastening points within the lamella, so that no additional space is required for fastening outside the lamella.
- the at least one opening is advantageously arranged in an outer region of the lamella, it is possible to arrange the outlet opening with respect to the lamella at one Position where the maximum deformation of the lamella is greatest to make an outlet area as large as possible.
- two openings are provided in the lamella. This makes it possible to safely secure the bridge with two fasteners.
- the lamella advantageously has an elongate shape, that is to say a shape in which a dimension in a first direction is substantially smaller than a dimension in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction.
- the openings are arranged in the region of ends in a longitudinal direction, that is to say the direction with the large dimension. This makes it possible to safely secure the bridge with a large support distance, without the openings in the lamella release the outlet openings in a closed position of the lamella.
- the bridge advantageously has at least one outflow hole which is arranged in a region which substantially coincides with at least one of the openings of the lamella arranged as intended in the bridge, air, in addition to lateral outlet surfaces, can pass through the opening (s). in the slat over the discharge hole in the bridge.
- the openings are open to the ends in the longitudinal direction. It is possible to use the openings with an enlarged cross-sectional area for an improved outflow of air through the outflow hole.
- this lamella has an elongated shape, so that, when arranging the outlet openings in the region of the ends in the longitudinal direction, the Flebelarm for deforming the blade is large in order to reduce the force for deforming the blade and thus a pressure drop. It is prevented by an anti-rotation, that the blade is rotated, so that the outlet openings are securely closed in a closed state of the blade.
- the security against rotation is provided as an elevation or depression in the lamella and a depression or elevation complementary to the elevation or depression in the housing of the compression cylinder.
- An increase or depression in the lamella is easy to produce by embossing or a similar manufacturing step.

- Spatial indications such as, top, bottom, side, or the like refer to a description of an outlet louver valve which, as shown in the figures, is located above a compression cylinder and whose lamella moves upwards as also shown in the figures , This information is not restrictive.
- FIG. 3a shows a side sectional view of an outlet fin valve according to a first embodiment of the invention
- FIG. 3b shows an isometric view of the outlet fin valve according to the first embodiment of the invention.
- the outlet louver valve is provided to close and open outlet ports (Fig. 1: Bz. 4) in a housing (Fig. 1: Bz. 9) of a compression cylinder of a compressor.
- the embodiment of the Auslasslamellenventils according to the figures 3a and 3b like the prior art according to Figures 1, 2a and 2b, also a lamella 1 for closing and opening of an outlet not shown here (Figure 1: Bzz. 4). It may be provided a single outlet opening or alternatively a plurality of outlet openings, wherein an entire cross-sectional area of the outlet openings should be chosen as large as possible in order to minimize a pressure loss during the expulsion of the air.
- the outlet louver valve also has a bridge 2 to restrict deformation of the lamella 1.
- the lamella 1 is bent upwards by an air flow through the outlet openings (FIG. 1: Bzz.
- the bridge 2 has in one area a supporting surface 5 with a predetermined radius of curvature g, which is essentially identical to the radius of curvature g shown in FIG. 2a, so that on the one hand the largest possible outlet area is realized, but on the other hand a lifetime is not reduced by an increase in bending stresses , Furthermore, the bridge 2 has a recess, not shown here, through which the lamella 1 is guided laterally in order to restrict lateral displacement of the lamella 1.
- the bridge 2 also has through holes 8 for fastening elements 3.
- the fasteners 3 here consist of bolts and nuts, but can also be in a different form, for example, as rivets executed.
- the blade 1 has openings 6 through which fastening elements 3 can each penetrate the blade 1 around the bridge 2 to the housing (Fig. 1: Bzz. 9) of the compression cylinder. This makes it possible, with an approximately equal radius of curvature g of the lamella, to increase the flub a (FIG. 2 a) to a stroke a '.
- FIG. 4a shows an isometric view of the lamella 1 and the fastening elements 3 of a modified first embodiment of the invention.
- the openings 6 are not formed here, as in the embodiment shown in FIG. 3 b, as through holes matched to a dimension of the fastening element 3, but have dimensions described below.
- 4b shows a plan view of an alternative lamella 1 of the modified first embodiment of the invention. The openings 6 are open in this lamella 1 to the ends in the longitudinal direction.
- the bridge 2 has continuous discharge holes 7 with predetermined Dimensions on.
- the outflow holes 7 are provided in each case in a region which substantially coincides with the openings 6 of the lamella 1 arranged as intended in the bridge 2.
- the dimensions of the openings 6 are selected so that they substantially correspond to the predetermined dimensions of the associated outflow holes 7.
- the bridge 2 has the discharge holes 7 in addition to the through holes 8 for the fixing elements 3.
- Fig. 5a is an exploded view of the outlet louver valve according to a second embodiment of the invention.
- the lamella 1 does not have the opening 6 in an outer region of the lamella 1, but the opening 6, through which the fastening element 3 penetrates the lamella 1, is arranged in a central area.
- the lamella 1 is provided for closing and opening the outlet openings 4.
- the bridge 2 is also provided for restricting the maximum deformation of the fin 1 in an opened state of the outlet openings 4.
- the bridge 2 also here the the lamella 1 facing support surface 5. Since the opening 6 for the fastening element 3 is arranged in the central region of the lamella 1, the bridge 2 and also the lamella 1 are fastened here in their respectively central area.
- the radius of curvature g also corresponds substantially to the radii of curvature g shown in FIGS. 2a and 3a, so that here too a service life The lamella 1 is not reduced by an increase in the bending stresses.
- an anti-rotation between the blade 1 and the housing 9 of the compression cylinder is provided.
- the anti-rotation consists of three recesses 10, which are incorporated in the housing 9 of the compression cylinder.
- complementary indentations 11 are provided to the recesses 10, thus projecting downwards and NEN can engage in the recesses NEN to ensure a position of the slat 1 to the housing 9.
- elevations can also be provided in the housing 9, the lamella 1 then having embossings complementary to the elevations.
- the vane 1 rests against the outlet opening (s) 4 by taking its original shape and is sucked by a negative pressure in the compression cylinder to the housing 9 of the compression cylinder, around the outlet opening (FIG. en) 4 to close.
- the fin 1 is deflected away from the exhaust port (s) 4 by the air flowing out due to the pressure in the compression cylinder, so that the air can flow out.
- the lamella 1 is bent until it rests against the support surface 5 of the bridge 2, wherein a maximum radius of curvature of the lamella 1 is determined. Due to the outflowing air, the lamella 1 lifts off from the housing 9 in order to minimize wear at its edges. The air flows since Lich by Ausström vom.
- the outlet louver valve according to the invention makes it possible to increase the stroke a (FIG. 2a) of the lamella 1 at an approximately identical radius of curvature of the lamella 1 to the stroke a '(FIG. 3a) in order to reduce a pressure drop at the outlet lamella valve.
