The groove 33e enables the burnt gas to flow from the combustion chamber 7 through the groove 33e between the intake valve 31 and the control valve body 50, which will be described later, at the beginning of opening of the intake valve body 31. It is provided to make the inside of 50 the same as the pressure in the combustion chamber.

The umbrella cover portion 52 covers the back surface 33b of the umbrella portion 33 of the intake valve body 31. As shown in FIG. 4, the peripheral edge 52a of the umbrella cover portion 52 is formed so as to extend to the vicinity of the valve seat contact portion 33d that comes into contact with the valve seat 14 of the umbrella portion 33 of the intake valve body 31.

図4に示されるように、制御弁体50の傘カバー部52の周縁52aは、吸気弁体31の傘部33の傘裏面33bに当接する傘当接部53となっている。傘当接部53は、傘カバー部52の周縁52aが吸気弁体31の傘裏面33b側に向かって折り返された折り返し部53aとなっており、周囲に弾性を持たせた構造となっている。折り返し部53a内には、補強部材としてのリング部材53bが、折り返し部53aにより巻き込まれて配設されている。 As shown in FIG. 4, the peripheral edge 52a of the umbrella cover portion 52 of the control valve body 50 is an umbrella contact portion 53 that abuts on the umbrella back surface 33b of the umbrella portion 33 of the intake valve body 31. The umbrella contact portion 53 has a structure in which the peripheral edge 52a of the umbrella cover portion 52 is folded back toward the back surface 33b of the umbrella of the intake valve body 31 and has elasticity around it. .. A ring member 53b as a reinforcing member is arranged in the folded-back portion 53a by being caught by the folded-back portion 53a.

吸気弁口8の周縁に圧入されたバルブシート14は、吸気弁体31の傘部33のバルブシート当接部33dが当接される吸気弁体当接面14aと、該吸気弁体当接面14aより内径の小さい段部14bが形成されている。制御弁体50の周縁52aのバルブシート当接面52bが、段部14bの制御弁体当接面14cに当接されるようになっている。 The valve seat 14 press-fitted into the peripheral edge of the intake valve port 8 is in contact with the intake valve body contact surface 14a to which the valve seat contact portion 33d of the umbrella portion 33 of the intake valve body 31 is in contact with the intake valve body. A step portion 14b having an inner diameter smaller than that of the surface 14a is formed. The valve seat contact surface 52b of the peripheral edge 52a of the control valve body 50 is brought into contact with the control valve body contact surface 14c of the step portion 14b.

制御弁体50の筒部51の上端部51aは、図3に示されるように、折り返された形状に形成されている。図2に示されるように、制御弁体50の傘カバー部52の周縁52aがバルブシート14の制御弁体当接面14cと当接している場合に、制御弁体50の筒部51の上端部51aの頂部51bはバルブガイド15の下端部15aに当接される長さに設定されている。 As shown in FIG. 3, the upper end portion 51a of the tubular portion 51 of the control valve body 50 is formed in a folded shape. As shown in FIG. 2, when the peripheral edge 52a of the umbrella cover portion 52 of the control valve body 50 is in contact with the control valve body contact surface 14c of the valve seat 14, the upper end of the tubular portion 51 of the control valve body 50 The top portion 51b of the portion 51a is set to a length that abuts on the lower end portion 15a of the valve guide 15.

図9に、制御弁体50を備えた本発明の実施の形態の吸気弁30と、制御弁体を具備しない従来の吸気弁について、内燃機関1の1サイクルにおいてクランク角ごとに計測した燃焼室内圧力と吸気ポート内圧力の変化、および吸気弁30と排気弁40のバルブリフト量を示した。図9を参照して、本発明の吸気弁30と従来の吸気弁との作動状態を比較して説明する。本発明の吸気弁30と従来の吸気弁とは、制御弁体50を具備するか否かが異なるが、他の構成は略同じ構成にされている。 FIG. 9 shows a combustion chamber measured for each crank angle in one cycle of the internal combustion engine 1 with respect to the intake valve 30 of the embodiment of the present invention provided with the control valve body 50 and the conventional intake valve not provided with the control valve body. The changes in pressure and the pressure inside the intake port, and the valve lift amount of the intake valve 30 and the exhaust valve 40 are shown. With reference to FIG. 9, the operating state of the intake valve 30 of the present invention and the conventional intake valve will be compared and described. The intake valve 30 of the present invention and the conventional intake valve differ in whether or not they are provided with the control valve body 50, but other configurations are substantially the same.

図9(a)のグラフでは、制御弁体50を備えた本発明の吸気弁30を用いた内燃機関の吸気ポート内圧力の変化を実線により示し、制御弁体50を具備しない従来の吸気弁を用いた内燃機関の吸気ポート内圧力の変化を一点鎖線により示している。さらに、燃焼室内圧力の変化を点線において示している。図9(b)のグラフでは、クランク角ごとの吸気弁および排気弁のバルブリフト量を示している。 In the graph of FIG. 9A, the change in the pressure inside the intake port of the internal combustion engine using the intake valve 30 of the present invention provided with the control valve body 50 is shown by a solid line, and the conventional intake valve not provided with the control valve body 50 is shown. The change in the pressure inside the intake port of the internal combustion engine using the above is shown by the alternate long and short dash line. Furthermore, the change in the pressure in the combustion chamber is shown by the dotted line. The graph of FIG. 9B shows the valve lift amounts of the intake valve and the exhaust valve for each crank angle.

内燃機関1は、クランク角0度、360度において上死点となり、180度、540度において下死点となっている。排気弁40は、180度の下死
点の手前で開弁を開始し、360度の上死点の後に閉弁する。吸気弁30は、360度の上死点の手前で開弁を開始し、540度の下死点の後に閉弁する。排気弁40および吸気弁30は、360度の上死点の前後でオーバーラップして開弁している。
The internal combustion engine 1 has a top dead center at a crank angle of 0 degrees and 360 degrees, and a bottom dead center at 180 degrees and 540 degrees. The exhaust valve 40 starts opening before the bottom dead center of 180 degrees and closes after the top dead center of 360 degrees. The intake valve 30 starts opening before the top dead center of 360 degrees and closes after the bottom dead center of 540 degrees. The exhaust valve 40 and the intake valve 30 overlap and open before and after the top dead center of 360 degrees.

制御弁体50を具備しない吸気弁を用いた従来の吸気弁の作動および吸気ポート内圧力の変化について、図9を参照して説明する。 The operation of the conventional intake valve and the change in the pressure inside the intake port using the intake valve not provided with the control valve body 50 will be described with reference to FIG.

吸気弁のリフトが開始すると、従来の吸気弁は制御弁体を具備しないので、燃焼室と吸気ポートとが連通される。図9(a)の一点鎖線および点線で示されるように、燃焼室内圧力が吸気ポート内圧力より高い特定のエンジン回転域においては、燃焼室内圧力と吸気ポート内圧力の差圧分、燃焼室7内の既燃ガスが吸気ポート11から燃焼室7へと流れ、燃焼室内圧と吸気ポート内圧力が一致するまで流入する。その後、ピストン6が下降し燃焼室内圧力が低下し、吸気ポート11から燃焼室7へと吸気が送られるようになる。 When the lift of the intake valve is started, the conventional intake valve does not have a control valve body, so that the combustion chamber and the intake port are communicated with each other. As shown by the one-point chain line and the dotted line in FIG. 9A, in a specific engine rotation range where the combustion chamber pressure is higher than the intake port pressure, the difference between the combustion chamber pressure and the intake port pressure, the combustion chamber 7 The burnt gas inside flows from the intake port 11 to the combustion chamber 7 and flows in until the pressure in the combustion chamber and the pressure in the intake port match. After that, the piston 6 is lowered, the pressure in the combustion chamber is lowered, and the intake air is sent from the intake port 11 to the combustion chamber 7.

このように、従来の吸気弁では、開弁開始時に既燃ガスが燃焼室から吸気ポート11へと逆流するので、燃焼室7内の排気効率が低下して燃焼悪化を招ねくこととなり、主に燃焼速度が低下する。この影響により排気弁開時までに燃焼が完了しないサイクルが発生し、未燃燃料排出が増加することで、エミッション悪化を招く。 As described above, in the conventional intake valve, the burned gas flows back from the combustion chamber to the intake port 11 at the start of valve opening, so that the exhaust efficiency in the combustion chamber 7 is lowered and combustion is deteriorated. Mainly the combustion rate decreases. Due to this effect, a cycle in which combustion is not completed by the time the exhaust valve is opened occurs, and unburned fuel emissions increase, leading to deterioration of emissions.

次に、本実施の形態の吸気弁30の作動について、図2ないし図6および図9に基づいて説明する。吸気弁30が閉弁状態の時には、図4に示されるように、バルブシート14の吸気弁体当接面14aに吸気弁30の傘部33のバルブシート当接部33dが押し付けられるとともに、バルブシート14の制御弁体当接面14cに制御弁体50の傘カバー部52のバルブシート当接面52bが押し付けられており、吸気ポート11からシリンダ26内への吸気の流入が遮断されるとともに、シリンダ26から吸気ポート11へガスが逆流することがない。 Next, the operation of the intake valve 30 of the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 2 to 6 and 9. When the intake valve 30 is in the closed state, as shown in FIG. 4, the valve seat contact portion 33d of the umbrella portion 33 of the intake valve 30 is pressed against the intake valve body contact surface 14a of the valve seat 14, and the valve. The valve seat contact surface 52b of the umbrella cover portion 52 of the control valve body 50 is pressed against the control valve body contact surface 14c of the seat 14, and the inflow of intake air from the intake port 11 into the cylinder 26 is blocked. , Gas does not flow back from the cylinder 26 to the intake port 11.

吸気弁30が開弁を開始して吸気弁体31が燃焼室7側に移動すると、図5に示されるように、吸気弁体31のバルブシート当接部33dが、バルブシート14の吸気弁体当接面14aから離れ始める。その際、図9(a)に示されるように燃焼室内圧力が吸気ポート内圧力よりも高い状態となっており、図5に示されるように、シリンダ26内の既燃ガスが、吸気弁体31のバルブシート当接部33dとバルブシート14の吸気弁体当接面14aとの隙間を通過して、吸気弁体31の傘部33の傘裏面33bと制御弁体50の内側の間に流入して、制御弁体50の内側は燃焼室内圧力と同圧となる。 When the intake valve 30 starts to open and the intake valve body 31 moves to the combustion chamber 7 side, as shown in FIG. 5, the valve seat contact portion 33d of the intake valve body 31 becomes the intake valve of the valve seat 14. It begins to move away from the body contact surface 14a. At that time, as shown in FIG. 9A, the pressure in the combustion chamber is higher than the pressure in the intake port, and as shown in FIG. 5, the burnt gas in the cylinder 26 is the intake valve body. Passing through the gap between the valve seat contact portion 33d of 31 and the intake valve body contact surface 14a of the valve seat 14, between the back surface 33b of the umbrella portion 33 of the intake valve body 31 and the inside of the control valve body 50. After flowing in, the inside of the control valve body 50 becomes the same pressure as the combustion chamber pressure.

燃焼室内圧力が吸気ポート内圧力よりも高いので、制御弁体50の傘カバー部52のバルブシート当接面52bがバルブシート14の制御弁体当接面14cに押し付けられ、吸気弁体31は開弁しているが、制御弁体50は閉じられ、既燃ガスがシリンダ26から吸気ポート11に逆流することを阻止する。また図3に示されるように、制御弁体50は制御弁体50の筒部51の上端部51aは、バルブガイド15の下端部15aに押し付けられて、制御弁体50の軸方向の移動が規制される。 Since the pressure in the combustion chamber is higher than the pressure inside the intake port, the valve seat contact surface 52b of the umbrella cover portion 52 of the control valve body 50 is pressed against the control valve body contact surface 14c of the valve seat 14, and the intake valve body 31 is pressed. Although the valve is open, the control valve body 50 is closed to prevent the burnt gas from flowing back from the cylinder 26 to the intake port 11. Further, as shown in FIG. 3, in the control valve body 50, the upper end portion 51a of the tubular portion 51 of the control valve body 50 is pressed against the lower end portion 15a of the valve guide 15, and the control valve body 50 moves in the axial direction. Be regulated.

シリンダ26内の排気が進むとともにピストンが下降し、燃焼室内圧力が吸気ポート内圧力と同じになりさらに吸気ポート内圧力よりも低くなると、図6に示されるように、制御弁体50が、吸気ポート内圧力により、シリンダ26側に向かって制御弁体50の傘当接部53が吸気弁30の傘部33の傘裏面33bに当接するまで移動し、制御弁体50も開弁して吸気ポート11からシリンダ26への吸気が開始される。下死点を過ぎ吸気弁30が閉じられると、シリンダ26内のガスは圧縮されて燃焼室内圧力は上昇する。 As the exhaust in the cylinder 26 advances, the piston descends, and when the pressure in the combustion chamber becomes the same as the pressure in the intake port and further becomes lower than the pressure in the intake port, the control valve body 50 takes in air as shown in FIG. Due to the pressure inside the port, the umbrella contact portion 53 of the control valve body 50 moves toward the cylinder 26 side until it comes into contact with the umbrella back surface 33b of the umbrella portion 33 of the intake valve 30, and the control valve body 50 is also opened to take in air. Intake from port 11 to cylinder 26 is started. When the intake valve 30 is closed after passing the bottom dead center, the gas in the cylinder 26 is compressed and the pressure in the combustion chamber rises.

本実施の形態の吸気弁30は前記したように構成されているので、以下の効果を奏する。 Since the intake valve 30 of the present embodiment is configured as described above, the following effects are obtained.

本発明の実施の形態の吸気弁30は、吸気ポート11の出口11aに設けられ、バルブガイド15により摺動可能に支持され、燃焼室7への吸気の流入を開閉面に対して垂直に開閉し、軸部32の一端に傘部33が設けられた吸気弁30を備え、吸気ポート11の出口11aの周縁11bに、吸気弁30の傘部33の周縁33cが当接されるバルブシート14が配設され、吸気弁30の軸部32に摺動自在にガイドされる筒部51と、軸部32の周囲から傘部33の傘裏面33bを覆う傘カバー部52とを有したラッパ形状の制御弁体50を備え、制御弁体50の傘カバー部52の周縁52aは、吸気弁30の傘部33のバルブシート14と当接するバルブシート当接部33dの近傍まで延びている。 The intake valve 30 according to the embodiment of the present invention is provided at the outlet 11a of the intake port 11, is slidably supported by the valve guide 15, and opens and closes the inflow of intake air into the combustion chamber 7 perpendicularly to the opening / closing surface. A valve seat 14 provided with an intake valve 30 provided with an umbrella portion 33 at one end of the shaft portion 32, and the peripheral edge 33c of the umbrella portion 33 of the intake valve 30 is brought into contact with the peripheral edge 11b of the outlet 11a of the intake port 11. A trumpet shape having a tubular portion 51 slidably guided to the shaft portion 32 of the intake valve 30 and an umbrella cover portion 52 that covers the back surface 33b of the umbrella portion 33 from the periphery of the shaft portion 32. The peripheral edge 52a of the umbrella cover portion 52 of the control valve body 50 extends to the vicinity of the valve seat contact portion 33d that abuts the valve seat 14 of the umbrella portion 33 of the intake valve 30.

このように構成されているので、図9に示されるように吸気弁30の開弁開始時に吸気ポート内圧力が燃焼室内圧力よりも低い場合に、図5に示されるように吸気弁30のバルブシート当接部33dがバルブシート14の吸気弁体当接面14aから離れて、吸気弁30が開弁を始める。吸気弁30が開弁を始めると、シリンダ26内の既燃ガスが、吸気弁30のバルブシート当接部33dとバルブシート14の吸気弁体当接面14aとの隙間を通過して、吸気弁30の傘部33の傘裏面33bと、制御弁体50の内側の間に流入して、制御弁体50の内側は燃焼室内圧力と同じなる。
一方、制御弁体50の外側は燃焼室内圧力より低い吸気ポート内圧力と同じ圧になっているので、制御弁体50の上端部51aはバルブガイド15の下端部15aに押し付けられるとともに、制御弁体50のバルブシート当接面52bがバルブシート14の吸気弁体当接面14aに押し付けられる。このように吸気弁30が開弁しても制御弁体50が閉弁しているので、シリンダ26内の既燃ガスが吸気ポート11内へ逆流することを抑制し、排気効率を向上させ、排気ガス中の未燃燃料排出を減少させてエミッションの悪化を防止することができる。
Since it is configured in this way, when the pressure inside the intake port is lower than the pressure inside the combustion chamber at the start of opening the intake valve 30 as shown in FIG. 9, the valve of the intake valve 30 is as shown in FIG. The seat contact portion 33d separates from the intake valve body contact surface 14a of the valve seat 14, and the intake valve 30 starts opening. When the intake valve 30 starts to open, the burnt gas in the cylinder 26 passes through the gap between the valve seat contact portion 33d of the intake valve 30 and the intake valve body contact surface 14a of the valve seat 14, and intake air is taken. It flows between the back surface 33b of the umbrella portion 33 of the valve 30 and the inside of the control valve body 50, and the inside of the control valve body 50 becomes the same as the combustion chamber pressure.
On the other hand, since the outside of the control valve body 50 has the same pressure as the intake port pressure lower than the combustion chamber pressure, the upper end portion 51a of the control valve body 50 is pressed against the lower end portion 15a of the valve guide 15 and the control valve. The valve seat contact surface 52b of the body 50 is pressed against the intake valve body contact surface 14a of the valve seat 14. Since the control valve body 50 is closed even when the intake valve 30 is opened in this way, it is possible to suppress the backflow of the burnt gas in the cylinder 26 into the intake port 11 and improve the exhaust efficiency. It is possible to reduce the emission of unburned fuel in the exhaust gas and prevent the deterioration of emissions.

さらに、制御弁体50の傘カバー部52の周縁52aは、バルブシート14と接する位置まで延びているので、吸気弁30と制御弁体50との隙化の管理が容易になり、制御弁体50の傘カバー部52の周縁52aのバルブシート当接面52bとバルブシート14との間のシール性、耐久性が向上する。 Further, since the peripheral edge 52a of the umbrella cover portion 52 of the control valve body 50 extends to a position in contact with the valve seat 14, it becomes easy to manage the gap between the intake valve 30 and the control valve body 50, and the control valve body 50. The sealing property and durability between the valve seat contact surface 52b and the valve seat 14 on the peripheral edge 52a of the umbrella cover portion 52 of 50 are improved.

また、制御弁体50は、筒部51の上端部51aがバルブガイド15によって、摺動自在に位置決めされているので、吸気弁30の軸部32に制御弁体50の位置決めのためのストッパーを加工することが不要となり、構造の簡素化およびコストの削減をすることできる。 Further, in the control valve body 50, since the upper end portion 51a of the tubular portion 51 is slidably positioned by the valve guide 15, a stopper for positioning the control valve body 50 is provided on the shaft portion 32 of the intake valve 30. No processing is required, and the structure can be simplified and the cost can be reduced.

さらにまた、制御弁体50は、傘カバー部52の周縁52aが吸気弁30の傘部33の傘裏面33bに当接する傘当接部53を備えているので、吸気弁30の開弁時の吸気ポート11からの吸気流により制御弁体50が摺動する時の特別なストッパー構造が不要となり、構造の簡素化およびコストの低減を図ることができる。 Furthermore, since the control valve body 50 includes an umbrella contact portion 53 in which the peripheral edge 52a of the umbrella cover portion 52 contacts the back surface 33b of the umbrella portion 33 of the intake valve 30, when the intake valve 30 is opened. A special stopper structure when the control valve body 50 slides due to the intake flow from the intake port 11 becomes unnecessary, and the structure can be simplified and the cost can be reduced.

また、制御弁体50の傘当接部53は折り返し部53aにより、周囲に弾性を持たせた構造であるので、折り返し部53aと吸気弁30およびバルブシート14とがより密着し、シリンダ26の気密性が向上するとともに、制御弁体50の耐久性が向上する。 Further, since the umbrella contact portion 53 of the control valve body 50 has a structure in which the folded portion 53a provides elasticity to the periphery, the folded portion 53a and the intake valve 30 and the valve seat 14 are in close contact with each other, and the cylinder 26 The airtightness is improved and the durability of the control valve body 50 is improved.

さらに、折り返し部53a内に補強部材としての金属製のリング部材53bが配置されているので、強度を維持しつつ制御弁体50を薄肉軽量化することが可能となり、制御弁体50の応答性向上と耐久性を確保することができる。 Further, since the metal ring member 53b as a reinforcing member is arranged in the folded-back portion 53a, it is possible to reduce the thickness and weight of the control valve body 50 while maintaining the strength, and the responsiveness of the control valve body 50. Improvement and durability can be ensured.

さらにまた、制御弁体50の傘カバー部52のバルブシート当接面52bが前記バルブシート14に当接する際に、制御弁体50の筒部51の上端部51aはバルブガイド15に当接されるように、制御弁体50が構成されているので、吸気弁30の閉じた状態において、上下で制御弁体50の位置規制が行え、制御弁体50の負荷を低減され、耐久性および軽量化を図ることが可能となり、さらに制御弁体50の応答性を向上することができる。 Furthermore, when the valve seat contact surface 52b of the umbrella cover portion 52 of the control valve body 50 abuts on the valve seat 14, the upper end portion 51a of the tubular portion 51 of the control valve body 50 abuts on the valve guide 15. Since the control valve body 50 is configured as described above, the position of the control valve body 50 can be regulated up and down in the closed state of the intake valve 30, the load on the control valve body 50 is reduced, and the durability and light weight are reduced. It is possible to improve the responsiveness of the control valve body 50.

さらに、吸気弁体31は、前記傘部33の周縁33cの近傍に位置して放射状に形成された溝部33eを有するので、吸気弁体31の開き始めにおいて、既燃ガスが燃焼室から溝部33eを通って吸気弁体31と制御弁体50との間に流れ込むので、吸気弁体31の開き始めにおける制御弁体50の作動性が向上する。 Further, since the intake valve body 31 has a groove portion 33e formed radially in the vicinity of the peripheral edge 33c of the umbrella portion 33, the burnt gas is released from the combustion chamber to the groove portion 33e at the start of opening of the intake valve body 31. Since it flows between the intake valve body 31 and the control valve body 50 through the intake valve body 31, the operability of the control valve body 50 at the start of opening of the intake valve body 31 is improved.
