Description

Oppfinnelsen angår en sensor for påvisning av bevegelsen av et stempel eller en gruppe stempler i en forbrenningsmotor inn i det øvre dødpunkt. Oppfinnelsen angår særlig en føler av en type som omfatter en rotasjonsdel roterbar synkront med drivakselen og som har et stort antall påvisbare referanser, hver forbundet med et respektivt stempel eller en respektiv gruppe stempler, og et fast endeinstrument forbundet med rotasjonsdelen for påvisning av passeringen av hver av referansene og tilveiebringelse av et korresponderende forutbestemt elektrisk signal. The invention relates to a sensor for detecting the movement of a piston or a group of pistons in an internal combustion engine into top dead center. The invention relates in particular to a sensor of a type comprising a rotary part rotatable synchronously with the drive shaft and having a large number of detectable references, each connected to a respective piston or a respective group of pistons, and a fixed end instrument connected to the rotary part for detecting the passage of each of the references and providing a corresponding predetermined electrical signal.

En konvensjonell føler av denne type anvendt i forbindelse med en firetakts, firesylindret forbrenningsmotor er vist skjematisk på fig. 1. På denne tegning er rotasjonsdelen vist med henvisningstall 10 og endeinstrumentet er vist med henvisningstall 11. De påvisbare referanser er sammensatt av diametralt motstående tenner 12, 13. I utførelses-formen vist på fig. 1, er tannen 12 forbundet med stemplene 1 og 4, mens tannen 13 er forbundet med stemplene 2 og 3. Rotasjonsdelen 10 er montert slik at tannen 12 passerer foran endeinstrumentet 11 når stemplene 1 og 4 er i øvre dødpunkt (eller i en forutbestemt fremflyttet eller forsinket vinkel A conventional sensor of this type used in connection with a four-stroke, four-cylinder internal combustion engine is shown schematically in fig. 1. In this drawing, the rotation part is shown with reference number 10 and the end instrument is shown with reference number 11. The detectable references are composed of diametrically opposed teeth 12, 13. In the embodiment shown in fig. 1, the tooth 12 is connected to the pistons 1 and 4, while the tooth 13 is connected to the pistons 2 and 3. The rotary part 10 is mounted so that the tooth 12 passes in front of the end instrument 11 when the pistons 1 and 4 are at top dead center (or in a predetermined advance or delayed angle

i forhold til bevegelsen inn i øvre dødpunkt).in relation to the movement into top dead center).

Fig. 2 viser som en funksjon av tiden t den typiske trend for et signal oppnåelig på utgangen av endeinstrumentet 11. Dette signal S omfatter en rekkefølge av pulser, av hvil-ke hver er forbundet med passeringen av en tann 12 eller 13 foran endeinstrumentet 11. I dette signal er det umulig å skille ut pulsene forbundet med bevegelsen av stemplene 1, 4 inn i øvre dødpunkt fra pulsene forbundet med bevegelsen av stemplene 2, 3 inn i øvre dødpunkt. Den konvensjonelle føler vist på fig. 1 tillater m.a.o. ikke differensiering innenfor "rekken" av sylindre i hvilken stemplene beveger seg inn i øvre dødpunkt. Dette ér et problem i elektroniske tennings-systemer med statisk fordeling. Fig. 2 shows as a function of time t the typical trend for a signal obtainable at the output of the end instrument 11. This signal S comprises a sequence of pulses, each of which is associated with the passage of a tooth 12 or 13 in front of the end instrument 11 In this signal, it is impossible to separate the pulses associated with the movement of pistons 1, 4 into top dead center from the pulses associated with the movement of pistons 2, 3 into top dead center. The conventional sensor shown in fig. 1 allows i.a.o. not differentiation within the "row" of cylinders in which the pistons move into top dead center. This is a problem in electronic ignition systems with static distribution.

Formålet med oppfinnelsen er å tilveiebringe en føler av en type beskrevet i begynnelsen, som er anordnet for å tillate at tilleggsinformasjon kan oppnås meget enkelt og lett rundt "rekken" i hvilken stemplene beveger seg inn i The object of the invention is to provide a sensor of a type described at the beginning, which is arranged to allow additional information to be obtained very simply and easily about the "row" in which the pistons move into

øvre dødpunkt på et visst tidspunkt.top dead center at a certain time.

Dette formål oppnås ifølge oppfinnelsen av enThis purpose is achieved according to the invention of a

følerkarakterisert vedat rotasjonsdelen har en ytterligere påvisbar referanse beliggende nær referansen forbundet med et forutbestemt stempel eller en forutbestemt gruppe stempler. sensor characterized in that the rotary part has a further detectable reference located close to the reference associated with a predetermined piston or a predetermined group of pistons.

Ytterligere karakteristiske trekk og fordeler med føleren ifølge oppfinnelsen vil fremgå tydelig ut fra den nærmere beskrivelse i det følgende i forbindelse med et ikke begrensende utførelseseksempel og under henvisning til tegningene, der fig. 1 og 2 som allerede er beskrevet, viser en føler ifølge kjent teknikk og det elektriske signal oppnåelig fra denne føler, og fig. 3 og 4 som skal beskrives nedenfor, viser hhv. en utførelsesform av føleren ifølge oppfinnelsen og'trenden for det elektriske signal oppnåelig fra denne føler som en funksjon av tiden. Fig. 3 viser en føler ifølge oppfinnelsen forbundet eksempelvis med akselen for en firetakts, firesylindret motor. Ifølge oppfinnelsen har rotasjonsdelen 10 en ytterligere referanse, det er en tilleggstann 14, f.eks. nær tannen 12. Tilleggstannen 14 er fortrinnsvis anbragt for å være vinkel-forskjøvet bak referansetannen 12 i drift. Fig. 4 viser signalet SS oppnåelig fra endeinstrumentet 11 på fig. 3. Dette signal har respektive pulssyklu-ser A, C og B frembragt av passeringen av tennene 12, 14 og 13 foran endeinstrumentet 11, i rotasjonsretningen vist med pilen F på fig. 3. Further characteristic features and advantages of the sensor according to the invention will appear clearly from the detailed description below in connection with a non-limiting embodiment example and with reference to the drawings, where fig. 1 and 2, which have already been described, show a sensor according to known technology and the electrical signal obtainable from this sensor, and fig. 3 and 4, which will be described below, respectively show an embodiment of the sensor according to the invention and the trend of the electrical signal obtainable from this sensor as a function of time. Fig. 3 shows a sensor according to the invention connected, for example, to the shaft of a four-stroke, four-cylinder engine. According to the invention, the rotation part 10 has a further reference, it is an additional tooth 14, e.g. near the tooth 12. The additional tooth 14 is preferably arranged to be angularly offset behind the reference tooth 12 in operation. Fig. 4 shows the signal SS obtainable from the end instrument 11 in fig. 3. This signal has respective pulse cycles A, C and B produced by the passage of the teeth 12, 14 and 13 in front of the end instrument 11, in the direction of rotation shown by arrow F in fig. 3.

Tiden T. mellom en puls A og den påfølgende pulsThe time T. between a pulse A and the following pulse

C og tiden T2mellom en puls C og den påfølgende puls B må alltid være forskjellig fra hverandre. Pulsen A (som angår de to sylindre 1, 4) er følgelig utskillbar fra en puls B (som angår de to sylindre 2, 3) ved en enkel sammenligning C and the time T2 between a pulse C and the following pulse B must always be different from each other. The pulse A (which concerns the two cylinders 1, 4) is consequently distinguishable from a pulse B (which concerns the two cylinders 2, 3) by a simple comparison

av tidene og T^.of the times and T^.

Som forklart ovenfor må vanligvis disse tider være forskjellig fra hverandre. Deres forhold er konstant når motorens drivaksel roterer med en konstant vinkelhastighet. Forholdet mellom disse tider kan variere når drivakselen (og følgelig rotasjonsdelen 10) er utsatt for vinkelakselerasjon eller retardasjon. Posisjonen for tannen 14 må derfor være slik at ved den forutsatte maksimale vinkelakselerasjon er tiden T, i ethvert tilfelle forskjellig fra (og i det viste eksempel mindre enn) tiden T2-As explained above, usually these times must be different from each other. Their ratio is constant when the motor's drive shaft rotates at a constant angular velocity. The relationship between these times can vary when the drive shaft (and consequently the rotating part 10) is subjected to angular acceleration or deceleration. The position of the tooth 14 must therefore be such that at the assumed maximum angular acceleration the time T is in any case different from (and in the example shown less than) the time T2-

Selv om det er referert til en firetakts, firesylindret motor i den forklarte utførelsesform ovenfor, vil en fagmann på området umiddelbart forstå at anvendelsen av føleren ifølge oppfinnelsen ikke er begrenset til en slik motor men tillater vanligvis skjelning av stemplet eller gruppe med stempler som beveger seg inn til øvre dødpunkt i en motor. Although reference is made to a four-stroke, four-cylinder engine in the embodiment explained above, one skilled in the art will readily appreciate that the application of the sensor according to the invention is not limited to such an engine but generally allows discrimination of the piston or group of pistons moving into top dead center in an engine.

De påvisbare referanser kan dessuten være av meget forskjellig natur fra tennene vist ved hjelp av det ikke begrensende eksempel. Derfor kan de være sammensatt f.eks. av innskjæringer, av innsettinger av et materiale med forskjellig magnetisk karakteristikk fra materialet som rotasjonsdelen 10 er sammensatt av, osv. The detectable references may also be of a very different nature from the teeth shown by means of the non-limiting example. Therefore, they can be composed, e.g. of cuts, of insertions of a material with a different magnetic characteristic from the material of which the rotating part 10 is composed, etc.

Hvert stempel eller gruppe av stempler kan dessuten ha flere vinkelekvidistante referanser forbundet dermed. Furthermore, each piston or group of pistons may have several angularly equidistant references associated therewith.

Oppfinnelsen vil naturligvis også strekke seg til utførelsesformer som oppnår lik nytte i kraft av det samme nyhetsbegrep. The invention will naturally also extend to embodiments that achieve equal benefit by virtue of the same concept of novelty.
