Abstract
Description
La présente invention se rapporte à un filtre à air pour moteurs à combustion interne de véhicules automobiles dans lesquels le carburateur et le collecteur d'échappement se trouvent de part et d'autre du moteur. The present invention relates to an air filter for internal combustion engines of motor vehicles in which the carburetor and the exhaust manifold are located on either side of the engine.
Dans les moteurs du type précité, le filtre est généraliment contenu dans un corps superposé et fixé au carburateur et qui communique par l'intermédiaire de deux conduits reliés entre eux et qui passent au-dessus du moteur, avec une prise d'air ambiant et avec une prise d'air chauffée par le collecteur d'échappement respectivement. Cette disposition implique la nécessité de relier ces conduits élastiquement aussi bien au corps du filtre qu'; corps du moteur en-outre, pour adapter le filtre à divers types de carburateurs (par exemple lorsqu'on passe d'un carburateur à simple corps à un carburateur à double corps), il est nécessaire de remplacer entièrement le corps du filtre. In engines of the aforementioned type, the filter is generally contained in a superimposed body fixed to the carburetor and which communicates by means of two conduits connected to each other and which pass above the engine, with an ambient air intake and with an air intake heated by the exhaust manifold respectively. This arrangement implies the need to connect these conduits elastically both to the body of the filter and; body of the engine in addition, to adapt the filter to various types of carburetors (for example when switching from a single-barrel carburetor to a double-barrel carburetor), it is necessary to replace the entire filter body.
En vue d'éliminer les inconvénients précités, la présente invention a pour objet un filtre à air pour moteurs à combustion interne de véhicules automobiles dans lesquels le carburateur et le collecteur d'échappement se trouvent de part et d'autre du moteur, caractérisé en ce qu'il comprend un corps constitué par deux demicoquilles aplaties qui peuvent etre assemblées l'une à l'autre par une liaison démontable ; la première demi-coquille contient une cartouche filtrante et présente un raccord destiné à la raccorder au carburateur ; la deuxieme demi-coquille présente un appendice tubulaire constituant une prise d'air ambiant et un raccord constituant une prise drain qui s'étend à proximité du collecteur d'échappement ; et une soupape actionnee par un actionneur thermos ta tique commande le passage de l'air à travers les deux prises précitees en fonction de la température de l'air qui traverse le filtre. In order to eliminate the aforementioned drawbacks, the present invention relates to an air filter for internal combustion engines of motor vehicles in which the carburetor and the exhaust manifold are located on either side of the engine, characterized in that it comprises a body consisting of two flattened half-shells which can be assembled to one another by a removable link; the first half-shell contains a filter cartridge and has a connector intended to connect it to the carburetor; the second half-shell has a tubular appendage constituting an ambient air intake and a connector constituting a drain outlet which extends near the exhaust manifold; and a valve actuated by a thermostatic actuator controls the passage of air through the two aforementioned intakes as a function of the temperature of the air passing through the filter.
D'autres caractéristiques et avantages de l'invention seront mieux compris à la lecture de la description qui va suivre d'un exemple de réalisation et en se référant aux dessins annexés sur lesquels
- la figure 1 est une vue en plan du filtre à air objet de l'invention ; et
- la figure 2 est une vue en coupe prise suivant la ligne Il-Il de la figure 1.Other characteristics and advantages of the invention will be better understood on reading the following description of an exemplary embodiment and with reference to the accompanying drawings in which
- Figure 1 is a plan view of the air filter object of the invention; and
- Figure 2 is a sectional view taken along the line II-II in Figure 1.
En 3, on a indiqué le corps d'un filtre à air pour moteurs à combustion interne de véhicules automobiles. Le corps 3 est formé de deux demi-coquilles aplaties 4, 6 reliées entre elles, le long de leurs bords d'extrémité 10 et 8 respectivement, par l'intermédiaire de deux leviers 11, lesquels sont articulés sur deux pattes 12 de la demi-coquille 6 et s'engagent à encliquetage dans deux logements 14 formés sur deux bossages 16 de la demi-coquille 4. Dans la demi-coquille 4 est contenue une cartouche filtrante F munie d'un rebord F1 qui est logé dans un logement formé dans le bord 10. In 3, the body of an air filter for internal combustion engines of motor vehicles is indicated. The body 3 is formed of two flattened half-shells 4, 6 interconnected, along their end edges 10 and 8 respectively, by means of two levers 11, which are articulated on two legs 12 of the half -shell 6 and engage to snap into two housings 14 formed on two bosses 16 of the half-shell 4. In the half-shell 4 is contained a filter cartridge F provided with a flange F1 which is housed in a formed housing in edge 10.
A l'extrémité qui est à l'opposé du bord 10, la demicoquille 4 présente un raccord 18 qui relie cette demi-coquille à l'entrée d'un carburateur 20, représenté sur la figure 2 par une ligne en traits mixtes. At the end which is opposite the edge 10, the half-shell 4 has a connector 18 which connects this half-shell to the inlet of a carburetor 20, represented in FIG. 2 by a line in dashed lines.
Les dimensions du raccord 18 dépendent du type de carburateur sur lequel le filtre doit être monté. The dimensions of the connector 18 depend on the type of carburetor on which the filter is to be mounted.
La demi-coquille 6 s'étend au-dessus du moteur M et, à l'extrémité qui est à l'opposé du bord 8, elle présente un prolongement en forme de conduit indiqué en 22 qui débouche dans le compartilent du moteur et met cette demi-coquille en communication avec l'exté rieur. The half-shell 6 extends above the motor M and, at the end which is opposite the edge 8, it has a duct-shaped extension indicated at 22 which opens into the compartment of the motor and puts this half-shell in communication with the exterior.
A proximité de la jonction du conduit 22, la demi-coquille 6 présente un raccord 24 qui débouche vers un collecteur d'échappement, non représenté sur le dessin, dont le moteur M est muni. Near the junction of the conduit 22, the half-shell 6 has a connector 24 which opens out to an exhaust manifold, not shown in the drawing, with which the engine M is provided.
De l'air à la tempéraure ambiante arrive au filtre par le conduit 22 de la demi-coquille 6 tandis que, par le raccord 24, il arrive au filtre de l'air qui a été chauffé au cours de son passage proximité du collecteur d'échappement. Air at ambient temperature arrives at the filter through the conduit 22 of the half-shell 6 while, through the connector 24, air arrives at the filter which has been heated during its passage near the manifold d 'exhaust.
En 26 on a indiqué une soupape qui est montée pour tourner dans la demi-coquille 6 autour d'un axe 32, entre deux positions extreses, dans l'une desquelles une paroi 20 de la soupape ferme l'entrée du conduit 22 tandis que, dans l'autre, une paroi 28 de la soupape ferme l'entrée du raccord 24. At 26 there is indicated a valve which is mounted to rotate in the half-shell 6 around an axis 32, between two external positions, in one of which a wall 20 of the valve closes the inlet of the conduit 22 while , in the other, a wall 28 of the valve closes the inlet of the connector 24.
Sur la soupape 26 est articulée une extrémité d'une tige 36 qui est reliée à son autre extrémité à un actionneur linéaire thermostatique 38 monté à l'intérieur de la demi-coquille 6 sur un étrier 53. On the valve 26 is articulated one end of a rod 36 which is connected at its other end to a thermostatic linear actuator 38 mounted inside the half-shell 6 on a stirrup 53.
Lorsque la température régnant à l'intérieur de la demi-coquille 6 est inférieure à une valeur minimale pré-établie, l'actionneur 38 maintient la soupape 26 dans la position représentée sur la figure 2, dans laquelle le passage de l'air froid par le conduit 22 est fermé tandis que l'air chauffé peut pénétrer par le raccord 24. When the temperature prevailing inside the half-shell 6 is less than a preset minimum value, the actuator 38 maintains the valve 26 in the position shown in FIG. 2, in which the passage of cold air through the duct 22 is closed while the heated air can penetrate through the fitting 24.
Au fur et à mesure que la température s'élève à I'intérieur de la demi-coquille 6, l'actionneur agit sur la soupape 26, par l'intermédiaire de la tige 36, en ouvrant progressivement le passage empruntant le conduit 32 et en fermant progressivement le passage empruntant le raccord 24. As the temperature rises inside the half-shell 6, the actuator acts on the valve 26, by means of the rod 36, gradually opening the passage passing through the conduit 32 and by gradually closing the passage via the fitting 24.
I1 ressort de façon évidentede la description donnée ci-dessus que le fitre à air suivant l'invention est compost d'un petit nombre de pièces et que, pour l'adapter à différents types de carburateurs, il suffit de remplacer la demi-coquille 4. It is evident from the description given above that the air filter according to the invention is compost of a small number of parts and that, to adapt it to different types of carburetors, it suffices to replace the half-shell. 4.
En outre, le filtre suivant l'invention, qui est étendu en largeur msis de hauteur réduite, permet de conserver l'encombrement en hauteur d'un filtre à air traditionnel monté directement sur le carburateur, en évitant en meme temps la complication du double tube de prise d'air qui passe au-dessus du moteur et qui doit etre ancré élastiquement au corps du filtre etaumoteur. In addition, the filter according to the invention, which is extended in width by reduced height, makes it possible to conserve the overall height in height of a traditional air filter mounted directly on the carburetor, while at the same time avoiding the complication of double air intake tube which passes over the engine and which must be anchored elastically to the body of the filter and the engine.
Bien entendu, différentes modifications pourront etre apportées par l'homme de l'art au dispositif qui vient d'être décrit uniquement à titre d'exemple non limitatif sangs sortir du cadre de l'invention. Of course, various modifications may be made by those skilled in the art to the device which has just been described solely by way of nonlimiting example bloods outside the scope of the invention.
