Abstract

The articulated gas-pipe joint comprises a nozzle (13) inside the junction between the two hinging portions (5,8). The larger-diameter end of the nozzle is fixed to the inside of the upstream half (5), and it tapers towards the downstream half (4). It can be secured in place by crimping, welding or gluing, and the joint can be used in the exhaust pipe of an automotive engine. It accommodates both torsional and bending movement, and allows freedom from gas escape.

Description

La présente invention concerne un raccord articulé pour conduite de gaz. Cette invention perfectionne plus particulièrement, les raccords du type à rotule, qui assurent un découplage en flexion et torsion entre la partie amont et la partie aval d'une conduite de gaz qui peut par exemple être un circuit d'échappement de véhicule à moteur. The present invention relates to an articulated connection for a gas pipe. This invention more particularly improves, the ball-and-socket type fittings, which provide decoupling in bending and torsion between the upstream part and the downstream part of a gas pipe which can for example be a motor vehicle exhaust circuit.

Le but de l'invention est de fournir un raccord articulé de ce genre, perfectionné de manière à éviter les fuites de gaz vers l'extérieur pendant le fonctionnement, tout en conservant une structure très simple et par conséquent une fabrication économique du raccord. The object of the invention is to provide an articulated connection of this kind, improved so as to avoid gas leaks to the outside during operation, while retaining a very simple structure and therefore economical manufacture of the connection.

A cet effet, l'invention a essentiellement pour objet un raccord articulé du genre précédemment rappelé,-qui comprend en outre une tuyère placée à l'intérieur de la zone de liaison des deux éléments articulés du raccord, la tuyère ayant son extrémité de plus grand diamètre dirigée vers l'élément articulé raccordé à la partie amont du circuit, et cette tuyère se rétrécissant endirection de la partie aval du circuit. To this end, the invention essentially relates to an articulated connector of the kind mentioned above, which further comprises a nozzle placed inside the connection zone of the two articulated elements of the connector, the nozzle having its end more large diameter directed towards the articulated element connected to the upstream part of the circuit, and this nozzle narrowing endirection of the downstream part of the circuit.

La tuyère, placée à l'intérieur de la liaison sphérique dans le cas d'un raccord du type à rotule, peut être notamment fixée par sertissage, par soudure ou par collage sur un des éléments constituant l'articulation. The nozzle, placed inside the spherical connection in the case of a ball-type connection, can in particular be fixed by crimping, by welding or by bonding to one of the elements constituting the joint.

Le fonctionnement du raccord articulé, objet de l'invention, évitant les fuites vers l'extérieur, est basé sur le phénomène d'aspiration engendrée à la périphérie de la sortie d'une tuyère par le fluide circulant à grande vitesse à travers celle-ci (principe utilisé pour la pompe à vide) : les gaz situés dans la rotule ou autre forme d'articulation, à l'extérieur de la tuyère, se trouvent aspirés par les gaz sortant à grande vitesse de cette tuyère. The operation of the articulated connector, object of the invention, preventing leaks to the outside, is based on the phenomenon of suction generated at the periphery of the outlet of a nozzle by the fluid flowing at high speed through it ci (principle used for the vacuum pump): the gases located in the ball joint or other form of articulation, outside the nozzle, are sucked by the gases leaving at high speed from this nozzle.

Les caractéristiques dimensionnelles de la tuyère sont déterminées de manière à ce qu'au régime "normal" de fonctionnement, la dépression dynamique due à la tuyère soit équivalente à la pression des gaz. Les dimensions de la tuyère d'une articulation utilisée sur un circuit d'échappement de véhicule à moteur, seront également déterminées de cette façon. Pour un régime inférieur au régime "normal" (par exemple au ralenti), la pression des gaz étant faible, la fuite au niveau de l'articulation du raccord devient négligeable. Pour un régime supérieur la fuite se produit vers l'intérieur, donc sous la forme d'une aspiration d'air qui n1 est pas genante dans ce cas. The dimensional characteristics of the nozzle are determined so that at "normal" operating conditions, the dynamic depression due to the nozzle is equivalent to the pressure of the gases. The dimensions of the nozzle of a joint used on a motor vehicle exhaust system will also be determined in this way. For a speed lower than the "normal" speed (for example at idle), the gas pressure being low, the leak at the joint of the fitting becomes negligible. For a higher speed, the leak occurs inward, therefore in the form of an air intake which is not annoying in this case.

De toute façon, l'invention sera bien comprise à l'aide de la description qui suit, en référence à l'unique figure du dessin schématique annexé représentant, à titre d'exemple non limitatif, une forme d'exécution de ce raccord articulé pour tubulure d'échappement de gaz. Anyway, the invention will be clearly understood with the aid of the description which follows, with reference to the single figure of the appended schematic drawing representing, by way of nonlimiting example, an embodiment of this articulated connection for gas exhaust manifold.

Sur cette figure est représenté, en coupe passant par l'axe 1, un raccord articule 2 du type à rotule, intercalé entre la partie amont 3 et la partie aval 4 d'un circuit d'échappement de véhicule à moteur à explosion. D'une manière connue, le raccord 2 comprend :
- un premier élément 5, formé d'un embout tubulaire 6 raccordé à la partie amont 3 du circuit et prolongé par un évasement sphérique 7
- un second élément 8, formé d'un embout tubulaire 9 raccordé à la partie aval 4 du circuit, et prolongé par un évasement sphérique 10.
In this figure is shown, in section passing through the axis 1, an articulated connection 2 of the ball type, interposed between the upstream part 3 and the downstream part 4 of an exhaust circuit of an internal combustion engine vehicle. In a known manner, the connector 2 comprises:
- A first element 5, formed of a tubular end piece 6 connected to the upstream part 3 of the circuit and extended by a spherical flaring 7
a second element 8, formed of a tubular end piece 9 connected to the downstream part 4 of the circuit, and extended by a spherical flaring 10.

Les deux évasements sphériques 7 et 10 sont emboîtés l'un dans l'autre concentriquement, le centre de l'articulation à rotule ainsi réalisée étant indiqué en 11. The two spherical flares 7 and 10 are nested one inside the other concentrically, the center of the ball joint thus produced being indicated at 11.

Selon l'invention, l'élément articulé 5 raccordé à la partie amont 3 du circuit comprend, entre l'embout 6 et l'évasement sphérique 7, une portée 12 sur laquelle est fixé intérieurement une tuyère 13. According to the invention, the articulated element 5 connected to the upstream part 3 of the circuit comprises, between the endpiece 6 and the spherical flaring 7, a bearing surface 12 on which a nozzle 13 is fixed internally.

La fixation de la tuyère 13 sur l'élément articulé 5 est faite à l'extrémité 14 de plus grand diamètre de la tuyère. The attachment of the nozzle 13 to the articulated element 5 is made at the end 14 of larger diameter of the nozzle.

Cette tuyère 13 s'étend à l'intérieur de la rotule, et elle va en se rétrécissant en direction de la partie aval 4 du circuit, c'est à dire dans le sens d'écoulement des gaz, indiqué par la flèche 15. This nozzle 13 extends inside the ball joint, and it tapers towards the downstream part 4 of the circuit, that is to say in the direction of flow of the gases, indicated by arrow 15.

Bien entendu, l'invention ne se limite pas à la seule forme d'exécution de ce raccord articulé qui a été décrite cidessus, à titre d'exemple ; elle en embrasse, au contraire, toutes les variantes de réalisation et d'application. Of course, the invention is not limited to the only embodiment of this articulated connection which has been described above, by way of example; on the contrary, it embraces all of the variant embodiments and applications.

Ainsi, le perfectionnement objet de l'invention est facilement applicable à toute articulation, non étanche par elle-m8me, à travers laquelle circule un gaz à une vitesse et une pression sensiblement constante ; la tuyère est dans chaque cas déterminée suivant les# caractéristiques de ce régime permanent d'écoulement gazeux.  Thus, the improvement which is the subject of the invention is easily applicable to any joint, which is not itself leaktight, through which a gas circulates at a substantially constant speed and pressure; the nozzle is in each case determined according to the # characteristics of this permanent gas flow regime.
