- ABSTRACT A cooling water circulatory system for multi-cylinder internal combustion engines in which a partial cooling water quantity is branched off from the individual cooling water spaces of the cylinders that are sequentially circumcirculated by the cooling water, and in which the partial cooling water quantities are collected after passage through the respective cylinder heads in a cooling water return line whereby the cooling water space of'a downstream cylinder, as viewed in the flow direction, preferably the last cylinder, is tapped by means of a by-pass line which terminates, by-passing the cylinder heads, in the cooling water line system at a place between the suction side of the cooling water pump and the cylinder heads.
- the present invention relates to a cooling water circulation for multi-cylinder internal combustion engines in which a partial quantity of cooling water is branched off from each of the individual cooling water spaces of the sequentially circumcirculated cylinders and after passage through the associated cylinder head is collected in a cooling water return line.
- the present invention is concerned with the task to improve the cooling water circulatory system of the aforementioned type which is advantageous especially for the use of separate cylinder heads for the individual cylinders, in such a manner that the aforementioned disadvantages are avoided.
- the underlying problems are solved according to the present invention in that the cooling water space of a cylinder disposed downstream in the flow direction is tapped by means of a bypass line and that the by-pass line in by-passing relationship to the cylinder heads terminates in the cooling water line system at a place between the suction side of the cooling water pump and the cylinder heads.
- a still adequate cooling water flow is thus enforced also in the cooling water spaces of the rear or downstream cylinders by means of the by-pass line so that an over-heating and galling of the cylinders are avoided.
- Another object of the present invention resides in a cooling water circulation for multi-cylinder internal combustion engines of the type described above which assures effective and adequate cooling of all the cylin- 'ders.
- a further object of the present invention resides in a cooling water circulatory system for multi-cylinder internal combustion engines which avoids galling due to overheating.
- Another object of the present invention resides in a cooling water circulation for multi-cylinder internal combustion engines in which the cooling water flows sequentially from cylinder to cylinder, and which is so constructed and arranged as to improve the cooling of the cylinders.
- FIG. 1 is a schematic view of a firstembodiment of a cooling water circulatory system in accordance with the present invention of a six-cylinder in-line engine;
- FIG. 2 is a partial schematic view of a modified embodiment of the cooling water circulatory system generally similar to FIG. 1.
- the engine is generally designated in this figure by reference numeral 10 and the cylinders, indicated only schematically by reference numerals 11 to 16.
- the engine 10 drives a cooling water pump 17 in a conventional manner which forces the cooling water by way of the pressure line 18 successively through the individual cooling water spaces 19 to 24 of the cylinders 11 to 16.
- a partial cooling water quantity for the cooling of the associated cylinder head is branched off from each cooling water space 19 to 24.
- the partial cooling water quantities are returned from the cooling water spaces of the cylinder head by means of branch lines 25 to 30 into a return line 31.
- a radiator 33 and a by-pass line 34 are interconnected in conventional, known parallel arrangement between the return line 31 and the suction line 32 of the cooling water pump 17, which are controlled in a customary manner by a thermostatic control valve 35.
- the cooling water space 24 of the last cylinder 16 is tapped by a by-pass line 36 which, in by-passing relationship of the cooling water spaces ofthe cylinder head, is directly connected at 37 with the suction line 32 of the cooling water pump 17. It is avoided by the use of the by-pass line 36 that a standing cooling water column may form in the rear or downstream cooling water spaces, for example, in the cooling water spaces 22 to 24.
- the by-pass line 36 constitutes a by-pass connection between the cooling water pump 17 and the cooling water spaces 19 to 24 of the cylinders which improves the hot-running behavior of the engine.
- FIG. 2 In the modified embodiment of FIG. 2, in which similar parts are designated by similar reference numerals of the series, the main cooling water circulation is constructed corresponding to that of FIG. 1.
- the sixcylinder in-line engine generally designated by refer ence numeral 100, only the front cylinder 111 and the two first cooling water spaces 119 and 120 of the cylinders are shown in FIG. 2.
- the branch line of the first cylinder head tenninates in the return line indicated by reference numeral 131.
- a radiator 133 and a by-pass line 134 are again interconnected in parallel arrangement between the suction line 132 of the cool ing water pump 117 and the return line 131,.whichare controlled by a thermostatic control valve 135.
- the cooling water space of the last cylinder (not illustrated), is tapped corresponding to the arrangement of FIG. 1 by a by-pass line 136 which is connected to the return line 131 at a place 137 directly upstream of the valve 135.
- the parallel arrangement 133 to 135 is connected between the by-pass line 136 and the suction line 132 whereby a lesser flow quantity establishes itself in the by-pass line 136 withthe same pump output than in the arrangement according .to FIG. 1. Consequently, the line cross sections of the normal cooling water circulation can be taken over possibly unchanged for the cooling water circulatory system according to the present invention.
- a cooling water circulatory system characterized in that the by-pass line means is connected to the cooling water space of the last cylin der as viewed in the direction of flow of the cooling water.
- a cooling water circulatory system characterized in that the return line from the cylinder head includes a parallel arrangement of radiator and by-pass line controlled by a thermostatic control valve means.
- a cooling water circulatory system characterized in that the by-pass line means terminates in the line portion between the suction side of the cooling water pump and the downstream connection of the parallel arrangement consisting of radiator and by-pass line.

- a cooling water circulatory system characterized in that said by-pass line means terminates in the return line portion upstream of the control valve means but downstream of the first return line portion from the first cylinder head.
- a cooling water circulatory system characterized in that the return line from the cylinder head includes a parallel arrangement of radiator and by-pass line controlled by a thermostatic control valve means.
- a cooling water circulatory system characterized in that the by-pass line means terminates in the line portion between the suction side of the cooling water pump and the downstream connection of the parallel arrangement consisting of radiator and by-pass line.
