Description
ASSEMBLAGE DE TUYAUX D'ECHAPPEMENT, NOTAMMENT A UN COLLECTEUR
La présente invention, due à la collaboration de Monsieur André
CHALESLE, se rapporte à la fixation de tuyaux de descente d'échappement, en particulier du type bi-tubes, fixés sur le collecteur par l'intermédiaire d'une bride.ASSEMBLY OF EXHAUST PIPES, PARTICULARLY TO A MANIFOLD
The present invention, due to the collaboration of Monsieur André
CHALESLE, relates to the fixing of exhaust downpipes, in particular of the twin-tube type, fixed to the manifold by means of a flange.
Selon la technique antérieure, de tels tuyaux étaient soudés directement à la bride, cette dernière étant alors boulonnée sur le collecteur.According to the prior art, such pipes were welded directly to the flange, the latter then being bolted to the manifold.
Un tel assemblage rigide a pour principal inconvénient de ne pas filtrer les vibrations mécaniques dues aux pièces en mouvement dans le moteur ; selon sa géométrie et sa masse, il pourra posséder des fréquences propres de vibration dangereuses pour sa longévité.The main drawback of such a rigid assembly is that it does not filter out mechanical vibrations due to moving parts in the engine; according to its geometry and its mass, it can have natural frequencies of vibration dangerous for its longevity.
On est ainsi parfois amené à renforcer l'assemblage de la bride et des tuyaux, ce qui est souvent onéreux et pas toujours efficace
En effet la soudure de nervures de renforts recuit et fragilise les tubes, et dégrade de ce fait ses qualités mécaniques.It is thus sometimes necessary to reinforce the assembly of the flange and the pipes, which is often expensive and not always effective.
Indeed the welding of reinforcing ribs anneals and weakens the tubes, and thereby degrades its mechanical qualities.
L'objet de l'invention est de supprimer la soudure entre la bride et les tuyaux, et de la remplacer par un emmanchement particulier de ces deux éléments.The object of the invention is to eliminate the weld between the flange and the pipes, and to replace it by a particular fitting of these two elements.
L'invention sera déerite au regard des figures i à 6, ci-jointes données à titre d'exemples non limitatifs, qui représentent respectivement - figure i et 2 : deux exemples d'assemblages soudés et renforcés selon la technique antérieure, vus en coupe.The invention will be described with reference to Figures i to 6, attached given by way of nonlimiting examples, which respectively represent - Figure i and 2: two examples of welded and reinforced assemblies according to the prior art, seen in section .
- figure 3 : une vue en perspective de l'assemblage selon I'invention - figure 4 : une vue en coupe dudit assemblage en cours.- Figure 3: a perspective view of the assembly according to the invention - Figure 4: a sectional view of said assembly in progress.
- figure 5 : une vue en coupe de la phase de sertissage.- Figure 5: a sectional view of the crimping phase.
- figure 6 : une variante de l'application de l'invention à l'assem- blage de deux tuyaux.- Figure 6: a variant of the application of the invention to the assembly of two pipes.
Considérons les figures 1 et 2. Selon ces montages classiques, on voit que les tuyaux 1 et 2 sont réunis à une bride 3 au moyen des soudures 4. Pour les raisons évoquées plus haut, on renforce l'assem- blage précédent au moyen de soudures simples supplémentaires 5 ou de nervures 6 en équerre soudées à la fois aux tuyaux et à la bride 3. C'est au cours de ces opérations de soudage que le métal voisin des soudures est chauffé, recuit et se fragilise. Consider Figures 1 and 2. According to these conventional arrangements, we see that the pipes 1 and 2 are joined to a flange 3 by means of the welds 4. For the reasons mentioned above, the preceding assembly is reinforced by means of additional single welds 5 or 6 angled ribs welded to both the pipes and the flange 3. It is during these welding operations that the metal adjacent to the welds is heated, annealed and becomes brittle.
Le montage selon l'invention, visible en particulier aux figures 3 et 4 ne comporte pas de soudure et ne présente par conséquent pas les inconvénients précédents.The assembly according to the invention, visible in particular in Figures 3 and 4 does not include welding and therefore does not have the above drawbacks.
De plus, il ne prend pas non plus de jeu lors de la dilatation des pièces à la température maximum de fonctionnement du moteur, conserve à chaud comme à froid une bonne tenue mécanique et une étanchéité correcte aux gaz d'échappement, entre le tube et la bride.In addition, it also takes no play when expanding the parts to the maximum operating temperature of the engine, keeps hot as cold good mechanical strength and a correct seal against exhaust gases, between the tube and the flange.
On obtient un tel résultat en conformant l'extrémité des tuyaux proche de la bride 3 en forme de tronc de cône mâle 7, tandis que
l'est la partie correspondante des ouvertures 9 de la bride 3 en tronc de cône femelle 10.Such a result is obtained by shaping the end of the pipes close to the flange 3 in the form of a male truncated cone 7, while
is the corresponding part of the openings 9 of the flange 3 in a female truncated cone 10.
La partie supérieure du tronc de cône mâle 7 des tuyaux est pourvue d'une ceinture 8 qui permet le coincement de ces derniers dans la bride, lors de ltemmanchement à force que l'on exerce pour solidariser cet ensemble à la presse.The upper part of the male truncated cone 7 of the pipes is provided with a belt 8 which allows the latter to be trapped in the flange, during the force fitting which is exerted to secure this assembly to the press.
L'assemblage précédent est de préférence maintenu par des sertissages ponctuels déformants Il réalisés sur la bride 3, comme cela est mieux visible à la figure 5, lors du passage à la presse.The previous assembly is preferably maintained by deforming punctual crimps 11 made on the flange 3, as is better visible in FIG. 5, when passing through the press.
A titre d'exemple, on obtient de très bons résultats à chaud comme à froid en utilisant une bride 3 de hauteur voisine de 12 mm, dont l'angle au sommet des troncs de cône mâle et femelle est compris entre 20 et 26 degrés et pourvu de trois sertissages déformants répartis également à la périphérie du grand diamètre du tronc de cône femelle 10 de la bride. Celle-ci comporte en outre un orifice 22 permettant de la fixer par exemple par boulonnage, au collecteur d'échappement.By way of example, very good results are obtained hot and cold by using a flange 3 of a height close to 12 mm, the angle at the top of the male and female cone trunks being between 20 and 26 degrees and provided with three deforming crimps distributed equally on the periphery of the large diameter of the female truncated cone 10 of the flange. It further comprises an orifice 22 allowing it to be fixed, for example by bolting, to the exhaust manifold.
Un tel assemblage, bien que suffisamment étanches aux gaz d'échappement, laisse la souplesse nécessaire à la liaison des tuyaux à la bride, car les tuyaux n'ayant pas été soumis à la chaleur de soudures éventuelles, conservent toute leur élasticité d'origine.Such an assembly, although sufficiently leaktight to exhaust gases, leaves the flexibility necessary for connecting the pipes to the flange, since the pipes which have not been subjected to the heat of any welds, retain all their original elasticity .
Une grande partie des vibrations mécaniques issues du moteur sont ainsi filtrées
Par ailleurs, le prix de revient de l'assemblage selon l'invention est faible, ce qui permet son utilisation à d'autres endroits que ce qui a été mentionné plus haut, par exemple sur une descente d'échappement monotube ou sur le parcours du tube d'échappement, comme illustré à la figure 6. A large part of the mechanical vibrations from the engine are thus filtered
Furthermore, the cost price of the assembly according to the invention is low, which allows it to be used in places other than what was mentioned above, for example on a single tube exhaust descent or on the route. of the exhaust pipe, as shown in Figure 6.
Dans ce dernier cas, chaque tuyau 20 - 21 est solidarisé à une bride 22 - 23 de la manière décrite antérieurement, à savoir en faisant coopérer les éléments tronc côniques mâles 27 - 28 des tuyaux et femelles 29 - 30 des brides et en procédant aux sertissages 25 - 26.In the latter case, each pipe 20 - 21 is secured to a flange 22 - 23 in the manner described above, namely by making the male conical trunk elements 27 - 28 of the pipes and female 29 - 30 of the flanges cooperate and by proceeding with the crimps 25 - 26.
Les éléments ainsi obtenus sont alors réunis en mettant en contact les faces libres des brides qui sont alors boulonnées en 24. The elements thus obtained are then brought together by bringing the free faces of the flanges into contact which are then bolted at 24.
