  • the workpiece 14 is held in the axial direction by a clamping chuck 56 , whose clamping jaws are shown.
  • the clamping chuck 56 serves as an axial guide 54 so as to prevent the workpiece 14 from moving during the rolling process in the direction of what will later be the valve disk; such movement is brought about by the axial component of the rolling forces in the area of the rear face of the valve disk.
  • the form rolling process has, inter alia, the advantage that the molecular chain structure in the workpiece 14 is retained, which generates an undisturbed orientation of the fibres.
  • it can also be established on the basis of the crystal structure using metallurgical methods on the finished valve as to whether it has been produced, that is to say, formed, by forming rollers.

  • a heating element can be mounted opposite the radial guide 52 , which heats the workpiece 14 by flame, radiation or induction, so as to ensure that hot rolling occurs throughout the whole of the reshaping process.
  • the workpiece 14 before the rolling process in the axial direction, can be displaced upwards until it is flush with the upper edge of the forming rollers.
  • the angular velocity ratios between stem and valve disk are here at least as large as the corresponding radii ratios between valve stem and valve disk.
  • valve disk to valve stem diameter of about 5
  • a ratio of the angular velocities for the average diameter of the valve disk to the stem diameter of about 2.5 ensues, which in a normal rolling process would be sufficient to turn or tear off the valve disk from the stem. Therefore, provision can be made to drive the workpiece 14 during form rolling at a higher speed in order to produce a slippage in the area of the valve disk, which significantly offloads the transition section from the valve disk to the valve stem and can thus prevent destruction of the workpiece 14 during form rolling.
  • the clamping chuck can set into rotation by a separate drive, not shown, if the latter is provided.
  • the rolling device can be provided with a single-roller rotational speed control, which is shown in detail in FIG. 1B , so as to reduce the wear on the radial guide 52 . This is shown in detail in FIG. 1B . In order not to make FIG. 1A too confusing, the controller is not shown in the latter.
  • FIG. 1B shows the same elements as FIG. 1A , namely the forming rollers 42 and a finished form-rolled workpiece 14 A, wherein the forming rollers 42 are shown in a position at the end of the rolling process.
  • the depiction is purely schematic.
  • the forming rollers 42 have reshaped the workpiece 14 into a reshaped workpiece 14 A.
  • the reshaped workpiece 14 A still has a through-hole 28 , which extends through the whole of the valve stem.
  • the form rolling device of FIG. 1B is provided with a load cell 66 for at least one radial guide 52 , so as to measure the force with which the workpiece is pressed by the forming rollers 42 against the radial guide 52 .
  • the form rolling device of FIG. 1B is also provided with individually driven forming rollers 42 which can be activated individually at a selected rotational speed.
  • the load cell or force sensor 66 is connected to a controller 68 , which controls at least the rotational speed, that is to say, the drive, of one of the forming rollers 42 , so as to limit the force that the workpiece 14 / 14 A exerts on the radial guide 52 during the rolling process. Provision can also be made for the controller to control a rotational speed, more particularly, that of the workpiece, in order to reduce or at least limit the load on the radial guide 52 .
  • the workpiece is held centrally between the two rollers by means of a differential activation of the forming rollers, or in another position, such that the load and the wear on the guides 52 can be minimised.
  • the system can also be used in the case of rolling devices with two guides. By means of an appropriate controller, the service life of the rolling device can also be increased, since the intervals at which the guides must be replaced can be extended.
  • controller for limiting the load on the radial guide 52 is described only in conjunction with FIG. 1B , it is explicitly emphasised here that the said controller should also be regarded as disclosed in the case of the other embodiments that are shown in the figures.
  • the controller has been described only in FIG. 1B , as redundant repetition would only have increased the length of the description unnecessarily.
  • FIG. 1C shows the finished reshaped workpiece 14 A, which comprises a part that essentially forms a valve body.
  • the valve body has a valve stem 8 , which at a lower end runs out into a valve disk 6 , more particularly, the rear face 24 of a valve disk.
  • the valve body does not yet comprise a valve disk face.
  • the upper part of the valve stem 8 terminates in the stern end 36 , with which the valve can later be activated.
  • the stem end can be produced in the course of the form rolling process; however, it is also possible to shape the stem end 36 at a later stage.
  • the through-hole 28 has been reshaped into the cavity 10 in the valve disk 6 and the valve stem 8 . It is also possible to produce just the cavity 10 by reshaping and later to bring the valve stem to a final diameter by a machining process, should it not be possible to achieve the parameters of the diameter of the through-hole 28 , or blind hole, and the wall thickness of the workpiece, before and after the form rolling process.
  • the workpiece can be separated from the tubular remnant along the dotted line that forms the separation line 30 .
  • FIG. 1D shows the finished valve 4 produced by means of reshaping.
  • the valve body has a valve stem 8 , which at a lower end runs out into a valve disk 6 , more particularly, the rear face 24 of a valve disk.
  • the opening 18 on the valve disk face 22 is closed by a cover 20 , which has been bonded to the valve by friction welding, resistance welding, electron beam welding, or laser welding on a joint line 32 .
  • the cavity 10 is filled with a sodium coolant 12 .
  • the coolant used is usually sodium, which is in a liquid state at the operating temperatures of the internal combustion engine. Usually it is not the entire cavity 10 , but only 1 ⁇ 4, 1 ⁇ 3, 1 ⁇ 2, 2 ⁇ 3 to 3 ⁇ 4 of the cavity of the valve that is filled with sodium.
  • the sodium in the valve stem 8 that is to say, in the cavity 10 of the valve stem 8 , moves up and down and thereby transports heat from the valve disk 6 in the direction of the cooled valve stem S (shaker cooling).
  • the sodium moves within the valve 2 during each opening and closing operation.
  • the cavity 10 has been produced in the valve 2 in that the valve disk 6 has been provided on the valve disk face 22 with an opening 18 .
  • FIG. 2A corresponds essentially to FIG. 1A .
  • a description of reference symbols and elements that have already been described in connection with FIG. 1A will not be repeated here.
  • a cup-shaped workpiece 16 is now used, in which a base already forms the valve disk 6 , that is to say, the valve disk face 22 .
  • a blind hole 26 is used.
  • the diameter of the workpiece 16 is larger in the area of what is later the valve disk than in the area of what is later the valve stem 8 .
  • the workpiece already has, either essentially or precisely, the height of the later valve.
  • the valve stem is formed essentially by form rolling.
  • the valve disk can already be shaped to a large extent by a machining process.
  • the cup-shaped workpiece 16 is held in the axial direction by an axial guide 54 so as to be able to form the rear face of the valve disk. Provision is also made to provide the cup-shaped workpiece 16 with a shoulder on which a clamping chuck can engage, so as to be able to rotate the cup-shaped workpiece during form rolling at a speed that can be selected. This was already explained in the description of FIGS. 1A and 1B . With a shoulder that is held in a clamping chuck, a slippage between the valve disk and the forming rollers can be achieved. The shoulder can be removed after the form rolling by a machining process.
  • the wall thickness of that part of the cup-shaped workpiece 16 which later forms the valve stem, can be made thinner, which at a later stage results in a smaller wall thickness for the valve stem. Furthermore, in this design, the cup-shaped workpiece 15 is less strongly reshaped than the workpiece of FIGS. 1A / 1 B.
  • the valve is already finished to a large extent after the form rolling.
  • the cavity 10 has a large diameter in the area of the valve disk, which can be expected to result in improved cooling properties.
  • the stem has a smaller wall thickness than in the case of FIG. 1B .
  • FIG. 2C illustrates an internally cooled valve 4 in accordance with the invention, which has a valve stem that terminates at its lower end in a valve disk.
  • the upper part of the valve stem 8 terminates in a stem end 36 .
  • the valve is provided with a cavity 10 , which is filled with a coolant 12 .
  • the cavity can, for example, be filled with the coolant through an opening or bore in the valve stem.
  • the inventive valve In the area of the valve disk the inventive valve has a cavity with a large diameter, which can exceed the diameter of the valve stem.
  • the valve disk, with the valve disk face 22 , the rear of the valve disk 24 , and the valve stem are formed from one piece.
  • the finished valve therefore has no joint lines, either in the area of the valve disk or in the area of the lower valve stem. It is possible to close the cavity 10 by means of a valve stem end attached, for example, by means of friction welding, after it has been filled with coolant.
  • FIG. 3A illustrates essentially the form rolling device of FIG. 2A .
  • the forming rollers of FIGS. 3A are provided with a surface structure 58 , which, during the forming rolling process, causes a transport of the workpiece material in the axial direction.
  • the surface structure 58 which causes a transport of the workpiece material in the axial direction, is designed here as a thread pattern, which, with the rotation of the forming rollers 42 , generates an axial force in the direction of what is later a valve stem end.
  • the surface structure 58 is embodied as a thread pattern.
  • the thread pattern is designed with a small flank height and a small pitch, which only exerts forces, and does not roll a screw thread into the valve stem.
  • the material can flow not only in the circumferential and radial directions, but also, as a result of the axial forces, is able to flow, that is to say, to deform, in the axial direction.
  • this effect results in an ability to start with a cup-shaped workpiece with a larger wall thickness, which can significantly increase the process reliability of the method.
  • FIG. 3B illustrates the rolling process for the cup-shaped workpiece 16 in the direction of the valve stem end, wherein the material displacement is indicated by thin arrows.
  • FIGS. 3A and 3B can operate without an axial guide if the surface structure 58 generates a sufficiently large axial force to deform the rear of the valve disk face 24 by form rolling.
  • FIG. 3C shows a valve 4 that has been produced with the form rolling device of FIGS. 3A and 3B . It differs from the valve of FIG. 2C only in terms of the crystal structure of the material.
  • FIG. 4A corresponds essentially to FIGS. 1A to 3A .
  • a description of reference symbols and elements that have already been described in connection with FIGS. 1A to 3A will not be repeated here.
  • FIG. 4A utilises the same short cup-shaped workpiece 16 as is shown in FIGS. 3A and 3B .
  • the embodiment of FIG. 4A and FIG. 4B uses hyperboloidal forming rollers 44 , whose axes are skewed relative to one another.
  • the rolling method represents an skewed rolling method, because the axis of at least one of the forming rollers is inclined with respect to the axis of the cup-shaped workpiece.
  • the axes of the rollers are skewed relative to one another, wherein an angle between the axes can be specified as the angle in an orthogonal projection of the axes.
  • the axes 48 of the forming rollers are each inclined at the same angle to the axis 46 of the cup-shaped workpiece 16 .
  • an axial force is generated in the direction of what is later the valve stem end during the rolling process.
  • FIGS. 3A and 3B It is also possible, of course, to equip the forming rollers of FIGS. 4A and 4B with an appropriate surface structure 58 , such as was disclosed in FIGS. 3A and 3B .
  • the forming rollers 44 form single-shell rotational hyperboloids, whose generators are not straight lines, but the profile of an inlet or outlet valve.
  • Cylindrical rollers would not produce a cylindrical product, but rather a single-shell hyperboloid, since the separation distance between the axes of the rollers increases with the distance from the smallest separation distance. To compensate for this effect, the rollers themselves must have the shape of a single-shell hyperboloid. In skewed form rolling the rollers must also have the profiling of the final product, and thus form profiled single-shell hyperboloidal surfaces.
  • the workpiece is here guided by two opposing radial guides 52 , which guide the cup-shaped workpiece 16 between the hyperboloidal skewed rollers 44 .
  • the guides must also be tracked during the form rolling process.
  • the workpiece can be guided by an axial guide 54 , but can also be held, guided and/or rotated, by a clamping chuck via a shoulder.
  • both radial guides 52 can each be provided with at least one load cell 66 , each of which is connected to a controller 68 , which in turn controls the rotational speed, that is to say, the drive, of at least one of the forming rollers 44 .
  • the controller can be used for the purpose of holding the workpiece 16 accurately between the rollers 44 and/or reducing the wear on the radial guides 52 .
  • FIG. 4A illustrates the hyperboloidal forming rollers 44 in a final position after the form rolling process.
  • torsional forces are generated in the stem, which are smaller at lower roller axis angles.
  • FIGS. 4A and 5B can also operate without an axial guide, since a sufficiently large axial force is generated by the skewed rollers. It is also possible to deploy the surface structure 58 of FIGS. 3A and 3B in order to increase further the axial force generated during the rolling process.
  • FIG. 5A illustrates a combination of FIGS. 1A, 2A, 3A and 4A .
  • the cup-shaped workpiece is only guided from one side by means of a radial guide 52 .
  • the left-hand forming roller 42 has the same shape as in FIGS. 1A and 2A , and the axis of the left-hand forming roller 42 is aligned parallel with the axis of the cup-shaped workpiece 16 .
  • the left-hand forming roller is designed as a hyperbolic forming roller 44 , as in FIG. 4A .
  • the hyperbolic forming roller 44 is also provided with the surface structure 58 of FIGS. 3A and 3B .
  • the axis 50 of the hyperbolic forming roller 44 is inclined relative to the axis 48 of the left-hand forming roller 42 and the axis 46 of the cup-shaped workpiece.
  • the right-hand hyperbolic forming roller 44 generates a strong axial force in the direction of what is later the valve stem end. With a suitable design this axial force is sufficient to elongate a short cup-shaped workpiece 16 in the axial direction during the form rolling process.
  • FIG. 5B illustrates the rolling device at the end of the rolling process.
  • the hyperboloidal forming rollers 44 are located in a final position after the form rolling process.
  • the left-hand hyperbolic forming roller 44 covers the upper valve stem end of the rolled valve.
  • the shape of the rollers also causes the valve disk to cover the lower part of the left-hand hyperbolic forming roller 44 .
  • the right-hand hyperbolic forming roller 44 partially covers the valve disk of the reshaped workpiece 16 A.
  • the valve stem end covers the upper part of the line of contact of the right-hand hyperbolic forming roller 44 with the valve stem end.
  • FIGS. 6A and 6B illustrate a further additional embodiment of a workpiece and an internally cooled valve.
  • the workpiece that is shown in FIG. 6A corresponds essentially to the workpiece of FIG. 2A .
  • the workpiece of FIG. 6A is provided with an outer contour 70 .
  • the blind hole 26 is designed as a cylindrical hole.
  • the outer contour 70 together with the cylindrical blind hole 26 produces a thickness variation of the stem.
  • the outer surface of the stem is reshaped so as to be essentially cylindrical.
  • the outer contour 70 is flattened and transferred inwards to the inner face of the blind hole 26 , wherein an inner contour is formed internally in the blind hole.
  • the thickness variation of the stem is essentially maintained, wherein the contour after the reshaping process is now formed on the inner face, i.e. in the cavity 10 , as an inner contour 72 .
  • the inner contour is designed such that it forms a Laval nozzle at the transition section between the valve disk 6 and the valve stem 8 . It should be understood that other inner contours can be generated using this method.
  • FIGS. 1A and 1B , to 5 A and 5 B should also be considered as disclosed, inasmuch as they can be technically implemented.
