However, the following problems arise in the engine used for the purpose of existing learning or the like.

(1) Most of the existing engines are manufactured in the form of four-stroke engines leading to the suction-compression-explosion-exhaust sequence. Therefore, it is difficult to accurately implement the four-stroke order engine.

(2) That is, the four-stroke engine mixes air and fuel and then explodes them to obtain the power required for actual driving. However, since the explosion process can not be implemented in the existing engine, there is a limitation in showing the accurate engine driving state.

(3) Also, if an engine that works like an actual engine is required, such as a radio control car, such an existing engine can not be used. Accordingly, since a large number of motors are used as a power generating means such as an engine, there is a limit to realizing an operation like an actual engine.

(4) On the other hand, a four-stroke sequence is performed by using a fluid such as compressed air as a working fluid. In this case, since the number of rotations through each process is low, .

Therefore, the embodiments described in the present specification and the configurations shown in the drawings are merely the most preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to represent all of the technical ideas of the present invention. Thus, various equivalents And variations may be present.

(Configuration)

The valve opening and closing apparatus for an engine according to the present invention is provided with an intake and exhaust device space 110, mounting spaces 120a and 120b, a first hole 130a and a second hole 130b, as shown in Figs. A cylinder head 100 including a first valve 140, a second valve 150, compressed air passages 160a and 160b, and a timing gear 170.

In particular, in the present invention, the first valve 140, the second valve 150, and the timing gear 170, which are configured not to be integrally formed with the cylinder head 100, So that it can be easily assembled and used in a simple structure, and maintenance can be easily performed over time.

Further, since the valves 140 and 150 are configured to be rotatable using compressed air in a two-stroke system, the valve can be opened and closed easily and quickly. In particular, the compressed air from low pressure to high pressure can be used, Speed range from low speed to high speed, so that it can be used in a place where real power such as a toy car driven by a radio-controlled car and a motor as well as industrial and educational purposes can be obtained.

In addition, since the present invention can be manufactured using a 3D printer, the present invention can be easily and quickly manufactured, and can be precisely manufactured and used.

Hereinafter, this configuration will be described in more detail.

The intake and exhaust system space 110 refers to a space in which the compressed air sucked when the cylinder head 100 is mounted on a cylinder block (not shown) as shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 4 and FIG. This intake and exhaust space 110 creates an exhaust space until the piston mounted on the cylinder block reaches the top dead center and makes the intake space until the piston reaches the bottom dead center with the pressure of the incoming compressed air .

The mounting spaces 120a and 120b are formed by mounting two first valves 140 and second valves 150 to be described later and rotating the first and second valves 140 and 150 as shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 4 and FIG. It is space to make. The first valve 140 and the second valve 150 can be mounted or dismounted. The first valve 140 and the second valve 150 can be mounted or dismounted, .

For this, the mounting spaces 120a and 120b are formed by penetrating the cylinder head 100 to one side and the first and second valves 140 and 150, respectively, And a partition wall 121 is formed at an intermediate portion of the through-hole to divide the two mounting spaces 120a and 120b. At this time, the partition 121 has a through hole 121a formed at the center thereof to provide a space for allowing the first valve 140 and the second valve 150 to rotate simultaneously.

In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, one of the mounting spaces 120a and 120b, which is used as the intake side, for example, one of the mounting spaces 120a, Similarly, the discharge hole 122 is formed so that the compressed air therein can be discharged to the outside. At this time, the mounting space 120a is a space used for the intake side, and the first valve 140 is used as an intake valve. When the exhaust valve 122 is closed by the intake valve (the first valve 140), the first valve 140 closes the first hole 130a and flows into the compressed air passage 160a And is formed in a section where compressed air can not be supplied to the cylinder through the mounting space 120a. Therefore, the high-pressure compressed air that has entered the mounting space 120a, which is the intake space, while the first valve 140 blocks the first hole 130a and the valve is closed to perform the exhaust operation, is supplied to the cylinder head 100 and the first valve 140 of the cylinder head 100. However, the present invention prevents the high-pressure compressed air from being discharged to the outside of the cylinder head 100 through the discharge hole 122 to enter the cylinder. Accordingly, the high-pressure compressed air enters the cylinder to prevent the exhaust operation from being hindered, so that the intake and exhaust operation can be smoothly performed, and the rotary load can be reduced while the rotational force is increased, thereby stably and smoothly opening and closing the valve.

The first hole 130a and the second hole 130b are formed so as to connect the above-described intake and exhaust space 110 and the mounting spaces 120a and 120b, as shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. As the first valve 140 and the second valve 150 rotate, one of the first hole 130a and the second hole 130b is blocked and the other is opened, so that the intake and exhaust actions can be performed In order to make it possible.

The first valve 140 is installed to be rotatable by being fitted in the above-mentioned one mounting space 120a, as shown in Figs. 4 and 5. Fig. To this end, a first fitting protrusion 142 is formed on one side of the first valve 140 so as to be inserted into the partition 121, and a second fitting protrusion 142 is formed on the other side of the first valve 140, (143).

In the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the first fitting protrusion 142 passes through the partition wall 121 in the longitudinal direction, that is, as it is fitted in the mounting space 120a, It is preferable that they are configured so as to be fitted in the recessed grooves 152 and to be combined with each other so that they can be directly engaged without a tool.

Particularly, in the first valve 140, as shown in Figs. 4 and 5, a flow path 141 is formed on the outer periphery. The flow path 141 provides a path for blocking or opening the first hole 130a as the first valve 140 rotates in the mounting space 120a. Such a flow path 141 is formed in such a manner as to open and close the hole 141 according to the size of the flow path 141, preferably along the circumference of the valve, as the valve 151 rotates as the valve 151 rotates It will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art that a valve can be manufactured with different controllability.

The second valve 150 has a flow path 151 formed on its outer periphery as shown in Figs. 4 and 5. The flow path 151 opens and closes the second hole 130b when the first valve 150 rotates in the mounting space 120b.

The second valve 150 protrudes and forms a second fitting protrusion 154 so as to be rotatably supported on one side. Here, the second fitting protrusion 154 has the same structure as the first fitting protrusion 142 described above, but is mounted so as to protrude outward through the supporting plate 153 closing the end of the fitting space 120b, .

In addition, the second valve 150 is provided with a groove 152 in a different configuration from the first valve 140. The recess 152 is a portion where the first fitting protrusion 142 is fitted and fitted. The first fitting protrusion 142 protruding from the partition wall 121 is inserted.

The second valve 150 thus constructed is configured such that the first valve 140 is installed in one installation space 120a and the second valve 140 is installed in the remaining installation space 120b as shown in Figure 5 (a) Each is assembled into one. At this time, the first valve (140) engages with the first fitting protrusion (142) while the second valve (150) is assembled by inserting the groove (152) inside.

The first valve 140 and the second valve 150 are arranged such that the flow paths 141 and 151 are arranged at an angle of 180 ° so that the first hole 130a and the second hole 130b It is preferable that the other is closed. Of course, such a forming angle may be formed larger or smaller.

The compressed air passages 160a and 160b are formed one by one in the two mounting holes 120a and 120b as shown in FIGS. 1 to 5, and the first valve 140 and the second valve 150 So that the compressed air can be sucked into the intake and exhaust space 110 and exhaled to the outside.

The configuration of the compressed air passages 160a and 160b is such that any one of the compressed air passageways 160a is connected to the intake and exhaust manifold through the oil passageway 141 as in the configuration of the intake manifold and the exhaust manifold mounted on the cylinder head of an actual automobile, The other compressed air passage 160b discharges the compressed air that has entered the suction and discharge space 110 through the other flow passage 151. As a result,

Lastly, as shown in FIG. 5, the compressed air passages 160a and 160b are respectively connected to the cylinder head 100, that is, the first valve 140 and the second valve 150 rotate And cylinder head side oil passages 161a and 161b are formed so as to overlap with the oil passages 141 and 151, respectively. At this time, the cylinder head side oil passages 161a and 161b are formed in a shape finer in the rotational direction of the first valve 140 and the second valve 150. [ The cylinder head side oil passage 161a and the cylinder head side oil passage 161b can be formed differently from each other depending on the length and angle of the fine groove so that the first valve 140 and the second valve 150 ) Is controlled. That is, the timing at which the cylinder head side oil passages 161a and 161b start from the compressed air passages 160a and 160b and the start and end positions of the oil passages 141 and 151 are cam angles, The timing and amount of compressed air introduced into the cylinder are determined. Therefore, the cylinder head side oil passages 161a and 161b and the oil passages 141 and 151 can control the inflow timing and inflow amount of the compressed air flowing into the cylinder depending on the start position and the end position.

The timing gear 170 rotates together with the second valve 150 and the two first valves 140 and the second valve 150 rotate together as shown in FIG. 1, FIG. 2, Quot; a "

The timing gear 170 is installed so as to be rotatable together with the valve on the second fitting protrusion 154 protruding outside the mounting space 120b through the support plate 153 described above.

The timing gear 170 is connected to a crankshaft rotated by a piston operation and rotates together with the first valve 140 and the second valve 150 using the rotational force, So that an intake action to supply and an exhaust action to shut off are performed.

The valve opening and closing apparatus for an engine according to the present invention as described above is configured such that two first valves 140 and a second valve 150 are sandwiched by a cylinder head 100 having a single block shape, Can be used.

In particular, the present invention is configured such that the opening / closing device constructed as described above is configured to move in a two-stroke manner, so that the structure is simple and the actual number of revolutions is increased to provide not only a general learning tool, but also a power tool such as a toy car that uses a radio- It is possible to apply the present invention to an apparatus that generates a light.

In addition, since the present invention can be constructed by using a 3D printer and then assembled and used without a tool, the structure is simple and easy to assemble, disassemble, and maintain at any time and anywhere.

It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention can be manufactured in a variety of materials such as plastic or metal in consideration of the number of revolutions and the like. In addition, although the present invention is shown in the form of a single cylinder, it is easily understood by those skilled in the art that a plurality of such structures may be formed continuously or a plurality of individual open / close mechanisms may be continuously connected to each other .

On the other hand, in the present invention, driving compressed air is used, but the present invention is not limited thereto. That is, any working fluid can be used as long as it is a fluid having a predetermined pressure such as artificially compressed air as well as industrial steam.
