m ne . DECANTEUR D'HUILE COMPRENANT UNE CHAMBRE D'AIR FRAIS m not. OIL DECANTER INCLUDING A FRESH AIR CHAMBER
Domaine Technique de l'invention Technical field of the invention
L’invention concerne un décanteur d’huile pour moteur à combustion 5 interne. L’invention porte aussi sur un moteur à combustion interne comprenant un tel décanteur d’huile. L’invention porte enfin sur un véhicule comprenant un tel moteur à combustion interne et/ou un tel décanteur d’huile. The invention relates to an oil separator for an internal combustion engine. The invention also relates to an internal combustion engine comprising such an oil separator. Finally, the invention relates to a vehicle comprising such an internal combustion engine and / or such an oil separator.
10 Etat de la technique antérieure 10 State of the prior art
Au cours de la combustion d’un moteur à combustion interne, des gaz de combustion s’échappent depuis une chambre de combustion vers un carter-cylindres. Une telle fuite de gaz engendre donc la présence de gaz dans le carter cylindres. Ces gaz de carter sont communément appelés 15 gaz « blow-by » ou « blowby » (terme anglo-saxon). During the combustion of an internal combustion engine, combustion gases escape from a combustion chamber to a cylinder block. Such a gas leak therefore generates the presence of gas in the cylinder block. These crankcase gases are commonly referred to as "blow-by" or "blowby" gases.
Ainsi, un moteur à combustion interne comprend généralement un moyen pour faire circuler ces gaz blowby de sorte à les évacuer du carter- cylindres vers un décanteur d’huile. En effet, il est généralement prévu un 20 tuyau de ventilation reliant l’admission d’air du moteur à combustion interne au carter cylindres de sorte à amener de l’air frais au niveau du carter-cylindres. Thus, an internal combustion engine generally includes a means for circulating these blowby gases so as to discharge them from the cylinder block to an oil separator. Indeed, there is generally provided a ventilation pipe connecting the air intake of the internal combustion engine to the cylinder block so as to bring fresh air to the cylinder block.
Toutefois l’intégration d’un tel tuyau de ventilation au sein du compartiment 25 moteur très contraint, et au niveau d’un carter cylindres dont la forme est optimisée, est complexe. However, the integration of such a ventilation pipe within the very constrained engine compartment, and at the level of a cylinder block whose shape is optimized, is complex.

Description détaillée detailed description
La figure 1 illustre schématiquement un véhicule 1 , par exemple un véhicule automobile. Le véhicule 1 comprend un moteur à combustion interne 2. Le moteur à combustion interne 2 est par exemple le seul moyen de traction et/ou de propulsion du véhicule 1 . Alternativement, un moyen électrique, par exemple un moyen comprenant un moteur électrique et un moyen d’accumulation d’énergie électrique, participe également à la traction et/ou à la propulsion du véhicule 1 , on parle alors de véhicule hybride. Le moteur à combustion interne 2 comprend un carter cylindres 3. Le carter cylindre(s) 3 comprend au moins un cylindre. Par exemple, comme illustré en particulier sur la figure 5, le carter cylindre 3 comprend trois cylindres 3C. Le moteur à combustion interne 2 comprend encore un décanteur d’huile 10. De préférence, le décanteur d’huile 10 est agencé sur le carter cylindres 3. Par « agencé », on entend que le décanteur d’huile est fixé sur le carter cylindre 3, voire que le décanteur d’huile est intégré au carter cylindre. Selon un mode de réalisation, le décanteur d’huile peut être une partie du carter cylindre. FIG. 1 schematically illustrates a vehicle 1, for example a motor vehicle. The vehicle 1 comprises an internal combustion engine 2. The internal combustion engine 2 is for example the only means of traction and / or propulsion of the vehicle 1. Alternatively, an electric means, for example a means comprising an electric motor and an electric energy storage means, also participates in the traction and / or the propulsion of the vehicle 1, one then speaks of a hybrid vehicle. The internal combustion engine 2 comprises a cylinder block 3. The cylinder block (s) 3 comprises at least one cylinder. For example, as illustrated in particular in FIG. 5, the cylinder block 3 comprises three cylinders 3C. The internal combustion engine 2 further comprises an oil separator 10. Preferably, the oil separator 10 is arranged on the cylinder block 3. The term “arranged” is understood to mean that the oil separator is fixed to the crankcase. cylinder 3, or even that the oil separator is integrated into the cylinder block. According to one embodiment, the oil separator can be part of the cylinder block.
Comme illustré en particulier sur les figures 2, 3 et 4, le moteur à combustion interne 2 comprend une admission 5. L’admission 5 comprend un filtre à air 7 et/ou un turbocompresseur 8. Le moteur 2 comprend encore un tuyau 6 de ventilation d’air. As illustrated in particular in Figures 2, 3 and 4, the internal combustion engine 2 comprises an intake 5. The intake 5 comprises an air filter 7 and / or a turbocharger 8. The engine 2 further comprises a pipe 6 of air ventilation.
Comme illustré en particulier sur les figures 2, 3, 4 et 6, le carter cylindres 3 comprend une chambre de bielles 4. De préférence, une nappe d’huile H demeure au fond, selon une direction verticale, de la chambre de bielles 4. As illustrated in particular in Figures 2, 3, 4 and 6, the cylinder block 3 comprises a connecting rod chamber 4. Preferably, an oil layer H remains at the bottom, in a vertical direction, of the connecting rod chamber 4. .
Le carter du décanteur d’huile 10 comprend une chambre 20 indépendante de la décantation. La chambre 20 est destinée à recevoir de l’air frais F. De préférence, cet air frais F est prélevé en aval du filtre à air 7 et/ou en amont du turbocompresseur 8. L’air frais F arrive dans la chambre 20 via le tuyau 6. Pour ce faire, une entrée 21 est ménagée dans la chambre 20. Ainsi l’air frais F parvient au sein de la chambre 20 par l’entrée 21 . Une sortie 22 est ménagée dans la chambre 20 de sorte à déboucher dans le carter cylindres 3, comme illustré sur la figure 11 . La sortie 22 est destinée à évacuer l’air depuis la chambre d’air 20 et à envoyer cet air frais F au sein du carter cylindres 3. L’air frais F est envoyé de préférence au niveau de la chambre de bielles 4 de sorte à chasser les gaz blowby et/ou des vapeurs d’huile présents au sein du carter cylindres 3. De préférence, le tuyau 6 s’étend entre l’entrée 21 de la chambre 20 et un orifice de prélèvement 9 d’air frais. Avantageusement, l’orifice de prélèvement 9 est donc ménagé en aval du filtre à air 7. Ainsi l’air frais F prélevé est filtré, il est donc dépourvu de salissure et/ou poussière. Une tubulure 11 permet un retour d’huile RH de décantation en faisant communiquer le volume intérieur du décanteur 10 avec le volume d’un carter d’huile en traversant le carter cylindre. The casing of the oil decanter 10 comprises a chamber 20 independent of the settling. The chamber 20 is intended to receive fresh air F. Preferably, this fresh air F is taken downstream of the air filter 7 and / or upstream of the turbocharger 8. The fresh air F arrives in the chamber 20 via the pipe 6. To do this, an inlet 21 is made in the chamber 20. Thus the fresh air F reaches within the chamber 20 through the inlet 21. An outlet 22 is made in the chamber 20 so as to open into the cylinder block 3, as illustrated in FIG. 11. The outlet 22 is intended to evacuate the air from the air chamber 20 and to send this fresh air F within the cylinder block 3. The fresh air F is preferably sent to the level of the connecting rod chamber 4 so in expelling the blowby gases and / or oil vapors present within the cylinder block 3. Preferably, the pipe 6 extends between the inlet 21 of the chamber 20 and a sampling orifice 9 of fresh air. Advantageously, the sampling orifice 9 is therefore provided downstream of the air filter 7. Thus the fresh air F taken is filtered, it is therefore free of dirt and / or dust. A pipe 11 allows a return of settling oil RH by making the internal volume of the settling tank 10 communicate with the volume of an oil sump passing through the cylinder crankcase.
Comme illustré sur les figures 5, 6, 7, 9 et 10, le carter du décanteur d’huile 10 comprend un clapet anti-retour 30. Avantageusement, le clapet anti retour 30 est intégré au carter du décanteur d’huile 10 de manière à contrôler l’obturation de l’entrée 21. Ainsi, grâce à la présence de ce clapet anti retour, seul un flux s’évacuant de la chambre 20 par la sortie 22 est possible. As illustrated in FIGS. 5, 6, 7, 9 and 10, the casing of the oil separator 10 comprises a non-return valve 30. Advantageously, the non-return valve 30 is integrated into the casing of the oil separator 10 in such a manner. to control the blockage of the inlet 21. Thus, thanks to the presence of this non-return valve, only a flow discharging from the chamber 20 through the outlet 22 is possible.
Selon une première variante illustrée sur les figures 3 et 9, le décanteur 10 comprend une tubulure 11 de retour d’huile RH de décantation traversant la chambre 20. De préférence, la tubulure 11 traverse de manière étanche la chambre 20. Par exemple la sortie 22 est ménagée au-dessous de la tubulure 11 , comme illustré sur la figure 3. According to a first variant illustrated in FIGS. 3 and 9, the settling tank 10 comprises a pipe 11 for returning the settling oil RH through the chamber 20. Preferably, the pipe 11 passes through the chamber 20 in a sealed manner. For example the outlet. 22 is provided below the pipe 11, as illustrated in Figure 3.
Selon une deuxième variante illustrée sur la figure 4, la chambre d’air frais 20 est un conduit. Autrement dit le volume intérieur de la chambre est égal, ou sensiblement égal, au volume intérieur du conduit 25. Ainsi le conduit 25 s’étend entre l’entrée 21 et la sortie 22, par exemple de manière rectiligne. De préférence, le conduit 25 est agencé, par exemple horizontalement ou sensiblement horizontalement, dans une partie inférieure du décanteur. De préférence encore, le conduit 25 est agencé sous une jonction 12 entre la tubulure 11 de retour d’huile RH de décantation et le décanteur 10. Le conduit 25 peut ainsi être dans une chambre de décantation 13 du décanteur. En résumé, le tuyau 6 de ventilation a pour fonction d’amener de l’air frais F, de préférence filtré, dans le carter cylindres, notamment en partie inférieure de la chambre de bielles 4. Les gaz blowby crées par la combustion du mélange air-carburant et des vapeurs d’huile sont ainsi chassés et passent à travers le décanteur d’huile 10 en empruntant la tubulure d’entrée. Ainsi, le décanteur ou boîtier de décantation agencé à l’extérieur du moteur, plus particulièrement à l’extérieur du carter cylindres 3, reçoit les gaz blowby provenant du carter cylindres, en particulier de la chambre de bielles. According to a second variant illustrated in FIG. 4, the fresh air chamber 20 is a duct. In other words, the internal volume of the chamber is equal, or substantially equal, to the internal volume of the duct 25. Thus the duct 25 extends between the inlet 21 and the outlet 22, for example in a rectilinear manner. Preferably, the duct 25 is arranged, for example horizontally or substantially horizontally, in a lower part of the settling tank. More preferably, the pipe 25 is arranged under a junction 12 between the pipe 11 for the return of the settling oil RH and the settling tank 10. The pipe 25 can thus be in a settling chamber 13 of the settling tank. In summary, the function of the ventilation pipe 6 is to bring fresh air F, preferably filtered, into the cylinder block, in particular in the lower part of the connecting rod chamber 4. The blowby gases created by the combustion of the mixture air-fuel and oil vapors are thus expelled and pass through the oil separator 10 via the inlet pipe. Thus, the settling tank or settling box arranged outside the engine, more particularly outside the cylinder block 3, receives the blowby gases coming from the cylinder block, in particular from the connecting rod chamber.
Comme illustré en particulier sur les figures 2, 3 et 4, le moteur 2 comprend de préférence un premier canal 14 reliant par exemple le volume intérieur du décanteur, depuis une partie haute 15 du décanteur par exemple, à un répartiteur d’air 40. De préférence, le moteur 2 comprend encore un second canal 16 reliant par exemple le volume intérieur du décanteur, depuis une partie latérale 17 du décanteur par exemple, à l’admission 5, par exemple en amont du turbocompresseur 8. Ainsi, les gaz blowby BB piégés dans le décanteur d’huile du fait de la ventilation d’air frais F au sein du carter cylindres, peuvent s’échapper par le premier canal 14 et/ou par le second canal 16. Les gaz blowby BB sont alors amenés à rejoindre l’admission 5 et par conséquent à être injectés, par exemple au niveau d’une culasse 18, comme des gaz d’admission provenant du turbocompresseur 8 et/ou directement du filtre à air 7. Ainsi, un avantage de disposer l’air frais à côté de la décantation est de permettre un transfert de chaleur entre le blow by et l’air frais ce qui favorise la décantation des vapeurs d’huile. En effet, les gaz déshuilés bénéficient d’un refroidissement. As illustrated in particular in Figures 2, 3 and 4, the motor 2 preferably comprises a first channel 14 connecting for example the interior volume of the settling tank, from an upper part 15 of the settling tank for example, to an air distributor 40. Preferably, the engine 2 also comprises a second channel 16 connecting for example the internal volume of the settling tank, from a lateral part 17 of the settling tank for example, to the inlet 5, for example upstream of the turbocharger 8. Thus, the blowby gases BB trapped in the oil decanter due to the ventilation of fresh air F within the cylinder block, can escape through the first channel 14 and / or through the second channel 16. The blowby gases BB are then brought to join the intake 5 and therefore to be injected, for example at a cylinder head 18, as intake gases from the turbocharger 8 and / or directly from the air filter 7. Thus, an advantage of having the fresh air next to the settling is to allow a t heat transfer between the blow-by and the fresh air which promotes the settling of oil vapors. In fact, the deoiled gases benefit from cooling.
Autrement dit, le clapet anti-retour du circuit de ventilation de carter cylindres est intégré au décanteur d’huile en créant une chambre d’air à l’intérieur de celui-ci. La chambre d’air communique avec le carter cylindres, en particulier au niveau de la chambre de bielles, par un piquage étanche au niveau de l’interface entre la sortie de la chambre d’air et le carter cylindres, par exemple en utilisant un joint. In other words, the non-return valve of the cylinder block ventilation circuit is integrated into the oil decanter by creating an air chamber inside it. The air chamber communicates with the cylinder block, in particular at the level of the connecting rod chamber, by a tapping sealed at the interface between the outlet of the air chamber and the cylinder block, for example by using a gasket.
A noter que le tuyau 6 permet d’assurer une seconde fonction, à savoir maintenir l’intérieur du carter cylindres toujours en dépression grâce au clapet anti-retour. En effet, comme évoqué précédemment, le clapet anti retour empêche le reflux des gaz blowby vers l’admission d’air par le tuyau 6, en particulier en cas de surpression. Pour rappel, le captage de l’air frais F se fait en aval du filtre à air 7 et en amont du compresseur 8 de sorte à arriver dans le décanteur d’huile 10. Comme évoqué précédemment, aussi bien dans le mode de réalisation que dans la première et la deuxième variante, le volume du décanteur communique dans le carter cylindres 3. Note that the pipe 6 performs a second function, namely to keep the interior of the cylinder block always at vacuum thanks to the non-return valve. In fact, as mentioned above, the non-return valve prevents blowby gases from flowing back to the air inlet through pipe 6, in particular in the event of overpressure. As a reminder, the collection of the fresh air F takes place downstream of the air filter 7 and upstream of the compressor 8 so as to arrive in the oil decanter 10. As mentioned previously, both in the embodiment and in the first and the second variant, the volume of the settling tank communicates in the cylinder block 3.
Ainsi, le clapet anti-retour est placé sur le parcours du tuyau 6, à proximité du carter cylindres 3 sans toutefois être fixé sur le carter cylindres 3. Il en résulte une simplification du carter cylindre puisqu’il ne nécessite pas d’élément de fixation spécifique pour le clapet anti-retour, telle qu’une vis et/ou un taraudage et/ou un alésage de réception. Ainsi, étant donnée la suppression de cet élément de fixation, le coût des fonctions de ventilation et de décantation des gaz blowby est abaissé. En outre, le parcours du tuyau 6 est simplifié avec une réduction du nombre de pièces formant le parcours, notamment en présentant moins de courbure, en particulier moins de courbure à faible rayon. A noter que seul le décanteur d’huile est modifié pour simplifier le tuyau de ventilation. Enfin, le tuyau 6 est davantage accessible pour intervenir, le montage-démontage du tuyau étant facilité, aussi bien en usine à l’assemblage du moteur qu’en après- vente. Thus, the non-return valve is placed on the path of the pipe 6, near the cylinder block 3 without however being fixed to the cylinder block 3. This results in a simplification of the cylinder block since it does not require any element of the cylinder block. specific fixing for the non-return valve, such as a screw and / or an internal thread and / or a receiving bore. Thus, given the elimination of this fastener, the cost of the functions of ventilation and settling of the blowby gases is lowered. In addition, the path of the pipe 6 is simplified with a reduction in the number of parts forming the path, in particular by having less curvature, in particular less curvature at a small radius. Note that only the oil decanter is modified to simplify the ventilation pipe. Finally, the pipe 6 is more accessible for intervention, the assembly-disassembly of the pipe being facilitated, both in the factory for the assembly of the engine and after-sales.
Dans la première variante illustrée en particulier sur les figures 3 et 9, la tubulure 11 et par conséquent le circuit de gaz blowby BB refoulés du fait de la ventilation d’air frais F, traverse la chambre d’air 20. Il en résulte un refroidissement de l’huile au niveau du passage de la chambre 20 remplie d’air frais. En effet, l’air frais F est a priori à une température inférieure à celle de l’huile. In the first variant illustrated in particular in Figures 3 and 9, the pipe 11 and therefore the blowby gas circuit BB discharged due to the ventilation of fresh air F, passes through the air chamber 20. This results in a cooling of the oil at the level of the passage of the filled chamber 20 fresh air. In fact, the fresh air F is a priori at a temperature lower than that of the oil.
En remarque, la solution selon l’invention atteint donc l’objectif recherché de simplifier un tuyau de ventilation des gaz blowby dans un carter cylindres et d’intégrer aisément un clapet anti-retour, et présente les avantages suivants : As a note, the solution according to the invention therefore achieves the desired objective of simplifying a blowby gas ventilation pipe in a cylinder block and easily integrating a non-return valve, and has the following advantages:
- le coût est faible, de préférence seul le décanteur est modifié ; - the cost is low, preferably only the settling tank is modified;
- elle peut être appliquée sur tout moteur à combustion interne utilisant un décanteur d’huile. - it can be applied to any internal combustion engine using an oil separator.
