Abstract

PURPOSE:To simply form a pressure buffer chamber and as well to enhance the function of separation of oil from blowby gas, by utilizing the space between the left and right banks of a cylinder block to form the pressure buffer chamber in which a baffle plate is disposed. CONSTITUTION:A closed-pressure buffer chamber 27 communicated with the inside of the crank casing 8 through a communication hloe 26 is formed between the left and right banks of a cylinder block 4. With this arrangement, there may be prevented an increase in the amount of leakage of blowby gas which leaks from each combustion engine 12 to the casing 8 during the combustion and expansion stroke and as well variations in the internal pressure of the casing 8 under the action of each piston 6. Further, the chamber 17 is disposed therein with a baffle plate 36 for preventing oil splash from being directly sucked into a communication passage 33, and an oil separator 39 is formed by means of the baffle plate 36 and a lid member 39. With this arrangement, the V-type engine may be made compact without the outside sections of the left and right banks 2,3 being bulged.

Generally, in a reciprocating engine, the amount of so-called blow-by gas that leaks from the combustion chamber into the crankcase through the gap between the piston ring and the cylinder wall increases during the explosion and expansion stroke, and the pumping action of the piston causes the gas to leak into the crankcase. Pressure fluctuates depending on engine rotation. Therefore, when the inside of the crankcase is communicated directly to the intake passage in order to combust the blow-by gas in the crank case together with the intake air in the combustion chamber, the oil in the blow-by gas follows the pressure fluctuations in the crank case. A large amount of oil is brought into the intake passage, resulting in an increase in oil consumption. Therefore, a breather device has been adopted in which pressure fluctuations within the crankcase are alleviated by providing a breather chamber (pressure buffer chamber) communicating with the inside of the crankcase.

However, in this proposal, the breather chambers are formed on the outer sides of the left and right banks of the crankcase, so when the volume of each breather chamber is increased to improve the oil separation function against blow-by gas, This bulges outward, increasing the size of the engine, and as a result, the installation of various auxiliary equipment on the side of the engine is likely to be restricted.

Furthermore, as shown in FIGS. 4 to 6, the oil droplets in the M cylinder chamber 27 are contained in the pressure buffer chamber 27 through the communication path 3.
Baffle plate 36 for preventing direct suction to 3.
faces the opening 31 of the communication passage 33 into the pressure buffer chamber 27, and is integrally joined to the back surface (lower surface) of the lid member 29 with a predetermined space 37 so as to surround the opening 31. It is provided. The opening 3 of the baffle plate 36
An oil drain hole 38 is formed at a position corresponding to 1. The baffle plate 36 not only prevents oil droplets from being directly sucked into the communication path 33, but also constitutes a so-called oil separator 39 together with the two lid members. The space 37 between is the opening 3
It is open to the pressure buffer chamber 27 at the end opposite to 1, and is narrowed at a portion corresponding to the two inner bolts 30 and 30 for attaching the two lid members at the longitudinally intermediate portion thereof. from the pressure buffer chamber 27 to the throttle valve 16.
The blow-by gas that is being sucked into the downstream intake passage 14 is introduced into the space 37 between the two lid members and the panful plate 36, and passes through the space 37 in a meandering manner while the flow rate changes midway through the space 37. By colliding with the surrounding wall between them, the oil contained therein is separated and removed, while the oil separated from the blow-by gas is returned to the pressure buffer chamber 27 through the opening of the space 37 and the oil drain hole 38. Incidentally, reference numeral 40 denotes an oil return passage through which a portion of the oil used for lubricating the valve train within each cylinder head 11 is returned to the pressure buffer chamber 27.

Therefore, in the above embodiment, the pressure inside the crankcase 8 fluctuates due to an increase in the amount of blow-by gas leaking into the crankcase 8 from each combustion chamber 12 of the engine 1 during the explosion and expansion stroke, and due to the pumping action of each piston 6. Even if the inside of the crankcase 8 and the small diameter communication holes 26, 26.・
The pressure fluctuations in the pressure buffer chamber 27 that communicates through the... are relaxed and reduced. Since the oil separator 39 is provided continuously to the pressure buffer chamber 27 where pressure fluctuations are small, the oil in the blow-by gas flowing into the pressure buffer chamber 27 from the crankcase 8 follows the pressure fluctuations and passes through the intake passage. 14 is suppressed, and therefore the oil separation function can be improved with a simple structure.

In the above embodiment, the space 37 between the lid member 29 and the baffle plate 36 changes in volume while meandering in the longitudinal direction, but since the volume of the pressure buffer chamber 27 is large, the lid Even if a single baffle plate that shields the opening 31 of the member 29 from the pressure buffer chamber 27 is used, the oil separation function can be improved and maintained, and the structure can be simplified. There are advantages that can be achieved. However, in terms of further improving the oil separation function, the above embodiment is preferable.

As explained above, according to the present invention, the space between the left and right banks of the cylinder block of an OHC V-type engine is effectively utilized, and the cylinder block walls of the left and right banks are used as side walls to communicate with the inside of the crankcase, and the throttle valve A pressure plate 1 that communicates with the downstream intake passage through a communication passage.
By forming 1i seedlings and providing a baffle plate in the pressure buffer chamber facing the opening of the communication path, a large-volume pressure buffer chamber can be created without bulging out the outer parts of the left and right banks as in the conventional case. Therefore, it is possible to make the V-type engine more compact and to improve the oil separation function in the blow-by gas sucked into the intake passage.
