- TITLE METHOD OF OPERATING AN INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE
- This invention relates to a method of operating an internal combustion engine. More particularly, this invention relates to a method of operating a camless internal combustion engine that includes lubricating the engine using a low- phosphorus or phosphorus-free lubricating oil composition. In one embodiment, this invention also relates to a method of operating a camless engine that provides an increase in the time intervals required between oil changes.
- a problem associated with conventional internal combustion engines equipped with exhaust gas aftertreatment devices is that the lubricating oils for such engines are used in both the crankcase as well as in high wear areas such as the valve train.
- Another problem associated with conventional internal combustion engines is that the time interval required between oil changes typically is less than the time interval required for other service items such as air filter replacements, coolant changes, brake replacements, and the like.
- Oil changes are viewed as one of the most aggravating and, in some cases, most costly maintenance aspects of vehicle ownership.
- oil change intervals have been extended by base stock and additive upgrades. Since the 1920s, for example, the extensions have been about 15X or greater. Regardless of this progress, the time intervals required between oil changes continue to lag behind the time intervals required for other service items. The problem therefore is to improve the lubricant technology for these engines so that the time intervals between oil changes can be extended to coincide with other service intervals.
- the present invention provides a solution to each of these problems.
- lubricating oil compositions characterized by a low-level or absence of EP agents containing metal and phosphorus are used in the engine and as a result the exhaust gas aftertreatment device is protected from harmful exposure to the decomposition products of these agents.
- the engines used with the inventive method are camless engines, there is no cam shaft or associate parts that can be damaged by blow-by exhaust gases.
- the required oil change intervals for these engines are extended due to the fact that used engine oil is continuously or periodically removed from the engine and replaced with new oil.
- Camless internal combustion engines are known. Examples are disclosed in U.S. Patents 5,255,641 ; 5,311 ,711 ; 5,367,990; 5,373,817; 5,377,631 ; 5,404,844; 5,419,301 ; 5,456,221 ; 5,456,222, 5,562,070; 5,572,961 ; 5,615,646; 5,619,965; 5,694,893; 5,709,178; 5,758,625; 5,970,956; and 6,024,060.
- Patent 4,392,463 discloses a diesel engine having a first lubrication system, containing conventional engine oil, used to lubricate that section of the engine subjected to excessive wear-the valve train including the cam shaft, valve lifters, rocker arm, valve stems, etc., and a second lubricant system, utilizing diesel fuel, for lubricating the remaining section of the engine-the crankshaft and associated parts, pistons, connecting rods, etc.
- diesel fuel used to lubricate the crankshaft, etc. absorbs pollutants and contaminants contained therein and recirculates these contaminants through the fuel system to be burned and exhausted. By constantly being lubricated with fresh lubricant, wear on these specific parts is reduced.
- the reference indicates that frequent lubrication changes have been eliminated because the diesel fuel/lubricant is continuously changed and circulated through the fuel system. Since the engine oil and the first lubrication system is not exposed to crankcase blowby exhausted gases, its useful life is prolonged, thus reducing the frequency of required oil changes.
- This invention relates to a method of operating a camless internal combustion engine, comprising: (A) operating said engine using a normally liquid or gaseous fuel composition; and
- inventive method further comprises the following additional steps:
- FIG. 1 is a schematic illustration of a camless internal combustion engine that is useful in accordance with one embodiment of the inventive method, said engine being equipped with an exhaust gas aftertreatment device.
- Fig. 2 is a schematic illustration of a camless internal combustion engine that is useful with another embodiment of the inventive method, said engine being equipped with an exhaust gas aftertreatment device.
- Fig. 3 is a schematic illustration of a camless internal combustion engine that is useful in accordance with another embodiment of the inventive method. Description of the Preferred Embodiments The term "camless" internal combustion engine is used herein to refer to any internal combustion engine that does not employ a camshaft for controlling the timing and lifting of the engine's intake and exhaust valves.

- a phosphorizing agent such as phosphorus trichloride, phosphorus heptasulfide, phosphorus pentasulfide
- the most commonly used salts of such acids are those of sodium, potassium, lithium, calcium, magnesium, strontium and barium.
- concentration of ash- producing detergent or dispersant in the low-ash lubricating oil composition may be in the range that is sufficient to provide an ash content of up to about 2% by weight as measured by the test procedure in ASTM D874-96, and in one embodiment up to about 1.5% by weight, and in one embodiment up to about 1% by weight, and in one embodiment up to about 0.6% by weight.
- the low-phosphorus or phosphorus-free lubricating oil composition may also contain other lubricant additives known in the art. These include, for example, corrosion-inhibiting agents, antioxidants, viscosity modifiers, pour point depressants, friction modifiers, fluidity modifiers, anti-foam agents, etc.
- pour point depressants are used to improve the low temperature properties of oil-based compositions. See, for example, page 8 of "Lubricant Additives" by C.V. Smalheer and R. Kennedy Smith (Lezius Hues Co. publishers, Cleveland, Ohio, 1967).
- Examples of useful pour point depressants are polymethacrylates; polyacrylates; polyacrylamides; condensation products of haloparaffin waxes and aromatic compounds; vinyl carboxylate polymers; and terpolymers of dialkylfum- arates, vinyl esters of fatty acids and alkyl vinyl ethers. Pour point depressants are described in U.S.
- Patents 2,387,501 ; 2,015,748; 2,655,479; 1 ,815,022; 2,191 ,498; 2,666,746; 2,721 ,877; 2,721 ,878; and 3,250,715 which are herein incorporated by reference for their relevant disclosures.
- Anti-foam agents are used to reduce or prevent the formation of stable foam.
- Typical anti-foam agents include silicones or organic polymers. Additional antifoam compositions are described in "Foam Control Agents,” by Henry T. Kerner (Noyes Data Corporation, 1976), pages 125-162.
- each of the foregoing additives when used, is used at a functionally effective amount to impart the desired properties to the lubricant.
- a functionally effective amount of this corrosion inhibitor would be an amount sufficient to impart the desired corrosion inhibition characteristics to the lubricant.
- the concentration of each of these additives when used, ranges from about 0.001% to about 20% by weight, and in one embodiment about 0.01 % to about 10% by weight based on the total weight of the low-phosphorus or phosphorus-free lubricating oil composition.
- additives can be added directly to the low-phosphorus or phosphorus- free lubricating oil composition. In one embodiment, however, they are diluted with a substantially inert, normally liquid organic diluent such as mineral oil, naphtha, benzene, toluene or xylene to form an additive concentrate. These concentrates usually contain from about 1 % to about 99% by weight, and in one embodiment about 10% to about 90% by weight of such diluent.
- a substantially inert, normally liquid organic diluent such as mineral oil, naphtha, benzene, toluene or xylene
- Examples 1 and 2 Examples of low-phosphorus or phosphorus-free lubricating oil compositions that may be used are disclosed below (in the table below all numerical values provided for the components of the composition (except the foam inhibitor) are in percent by weight).
- Base oil - - SAE 5W-30 Polyalpha olefin oil mixture (80% by wt. 83.4 polyalphaolefin having viscosity of 6 cSt @ 100°C and 20% by wt. polyalphaolefin having viscosity of 4 cSt 100°C)
- Dispersant - - Succinimide derived from polyisobutene (Mn equal to about 1000) substituted succinic anhydride and polyethylene amines - - 16.67
- Viscosity modifier - - LZ 7067 (a product of Lubrizol identified as an olefin copolymer) 0.8
- Corrosion inhibitor - - Pluradyne FL11 product of BASF identified as an ethylene oxide-propylene oxide copolymer 0.02 0.02
- Foam inhibitor - - Polydimethyl siloxane dispersed in kerosene (90% kerosene) 50ppm
