Description
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention [0001] The present invention relates to a valve assembly for vertically moving a valve seat by converting rotational motion of a rotary gear into rectilinear motion of a poppet shaft using a cylindrical cam, and more particularly to a valve assembly for assembling a return spring for applying upward elasticity So that the process can be simplified and the return spring can stably maintain the fastened state.
Generally, the exhaust gas of an automobile is a gas which is compressed in a cylinder at a high temperature and a high pressure in the cylinder, and then expanded into the atmosphere through an exhaust manifold. Most of these exhaust gases are water vapor and carbon dioxide, and other harmful substances such as carbon monoxide (CO), hydrocarbons (HC), and nitrogen oxides (NOx).
BACKGROUND ART An exhaust gas recirculation system (EGR) is a means for reducing nitrogen oxides in an exhaust gas. A part of the exhaust gas is sent back to an intake manifold to reduce the combustion temperature when the gas mixture is burned, Is reduced. That is, the nitrogen oxide (NOx) can lower the combustion temperature to reduce the amount of combustion, and the combustion temperature is most influenced by the combustion speed, so the density of the cylinder mixer is lowered without changing the air-fuel ratio of the cylinder mixer itself. Therefore, when the burning rate is lowered and the increase of the combustion temperature is suppressed, the nitrogen oxide can be reduced as a result.
An exhaust gas recirculation valve (EGR valve) is provided between the exhaust manifold and the intake manifold to open / close the passage by controlling the EGR valve only in revolutions other than the idle and warm-up. The EGR valve is opened in accordance with the amount of opening of the throttle valve in the revolutions other than idle and warm-up, and the exhaust gas is partially recirculated to the intake manifold of the engine so as to minimize the reduction of the engine output, It lowers the temperature and reduces the emission of nitrogen oxides (NOx).
The conventional EGR valve constructed as described above has a structure in which rotational motion is changed to linear motion by using a fixed cylindrical cam. In such a conventional EGR valve, when the valve seat opens and closes the passage, There is a problem in that wear of the valve seat is increased and thus reliability of opening and closing is lowered.
In order to solve such a problem, a valve assembly (Korean Patent Registration No. 10-1604415), which is constructed so as to be lifted and lowered only without rotating when the valve seat is opened or closed, is filed and registered by the applicant of the present invention have.
Hereinafter, a conventional valve assembly will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in order to solve the above-mentioned problems, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a method of assembling a rotary cam, And the upper end of the cylindrical cam is not pulled out of the rotary gear when the upper end is inserted into the rotary gear, so that the assembly failure rate is significantly reduced.
According to an aspect of the present invention, there is provided a valve assembly having improved rotary gear operation, comprising: a valve assembly rotatable about a central axis in a vertical direction by a force externally applied thereto and having a non-circular A rotary gear having an insertion hole; A cylindrical cam having an upper end inserted into the insertion hole and integrally rotated with the rotary gear, capable of being lifted and lowered, and having two or more slide grooves inclined obliquely on an outer circumferential surface thereof; Wherein the cylindrical cam and the lifting and lowering are integrally formed so that rotation can be independently performed, a poppet shaft passing through the rotation axis of the cylindrical cam; A valve seat coupled to a lower side of the poppet shaft; A housing surrounding the bottom and sides of the cylindrical cam; At least two bearing units, one end of which is fixedly coupled to the housing and the other end of which is inserted into the respective slide groove in a slidable manner; A cover surrounding the upper surface and the side surface of the rotary gear and having a pressing protrusion extending downward at a portion corresponding to the upper surface of the rotary gear; And a return spring that is formed in a coil spring shape and is seated between a bottom surface of the rotary gear and an upper surface of the housing to apply an upward elastic force to the rotary gear, And the return spring is spread over the plurality of mounting hooks on the upper side.
The mounting hook is formed such that the upper end side thereof is convex.
An insertion pipe extending downward to be inserted into the housing is formed in a portion of the bottom surface of the rotary gear where the insertion hole is formed, an insertion pillar inserted into the insertion hole is formed on the upper side of the cylindrical cam, At the upper end of the column, there is provided at least one latching protrusion protruding outward, and a locking hook protruding inwardly to be caught by the latching jaw is provided at the lower end of the inner circumferential surface of the insertion hole.
The upper surface of the latching jaw is formed to be inclined downward toward the outer side, and the bottom surface of the locking hook is formed to be inclined upward toward the outer side.
And a cutout groove is formed in a portion of the lower end of the insertion tube where the fastening hook is formed.
The cross section of the incision groove is formed in an arc shape along the circumferential direction of the insertion tube.
The valve assembly according to the present invention can maintain the state where the return spring is coupled to the rotary gear before assembling the rotary gear to the cylindrical cam so that it is very easy to assemble and when the upper end of the cylindrical cam is inserted into the rotary gear, Since the upper end of the cylindrical cam can not be easily detached from the rotary gear, the assembly failure rate is very low.
