Definitions
- the invention provides a hydrokinetic coupling device, in particular for a motor vehicle, of the type comprising: - a casing driven by a motor shaft; - a turbine housed in the casing and driving a driven shaft; and - a locking clutch arranged in the housing and comprising a piston connected to the driven shaft which is axially movable relative to the housing between an engaged position in which at least one annular transverse face of the piston is in abutment against an annular transverse face facing the casing and a cleared position in which the transverse face of the piston extends away from the annular transverse face facing the casing, of the type in which the axial position of the piston with respect to the casing is controlled by modifying the pressure difference between a first chamber delimited in particular by the transverse faces of the piston and the casing, and a second chamber generally formed from the remainder of the interior volume of the casing, and of the type in which
- a hydrokinetic coupling device connects an input element driven by a driving shaft to an output element driving a driven shaft.
- the input element is generally a casing in which an impeller secured to the casing, forming an impeller, and a turbine wheel integral in rotation with the driven shaft are arranged face-to-face.
- the rotation of the casing and of the impeller organ causes the circulation of a liquid which rotates the turbine wheel and the driven shaft, with a certain difference in rotational speeds between the casing and the driven shaft, thus causing a loss of the energy transmitted between the motor shaft and the driven shaft.
- a locking clutch is arranged in the casing and makes it possible to secure the turbine wheel with the casing, as soon as the operating conditions allow it, in order to reduce the loss of energy transmitted between the motor shaft and the driven shaft.
- the locking clutch comprises a piston which is axially movable relative to the casing and to the turbine wheel, and which is intended to cooperate by means of friction means with an internal transverse face opposite. a radial wall before the casing.
- the piston divides the casing into two chambers, a first front chamber being delimited by the piston and the front wall of the casing, the second rear chamber being generally formed by the rest of the interior volume of the casing.
- the piston is axially movable between its front engagement position known as bridging, and its rear disengagement position called disassembly.
- the axial displacement of the piston is controlled by an electronic device which regulates the difference in fluid pressure between each of the first or second chambers.
- the piston When the piston is in the disassembly position, it is movable in rotation relative to the casing.
- the piston and the axial skirt are mounted with a radial clearance between their annular faces of revolution opposite.
- annular faces of revolution facing the piston and the axial skirt thus delimit an annular axial duct which connects the first chamber to the second chamber, and in which the circulating fluid undergoes a certain pressure drop, which depends in particular on the passage section of the annular duct.
- the piston and the casing are two elements produced by stamping thick metal sheets. The dimensional deviations of the piston and of the casing, in particular the dimensions and the shape of their facing faces of revolution, are therefore relatively large.
- the passage section of the annular duct is particularly random, and it is therefore impossible to determine with precision the value of the pressure drop undergone by the fluid flowing in the annular duct.
- the object of the invention is to propose a hydrokinetic coupling device for which it is possible to determine with precision the value of the pressure drop undergone by the fluid circulating in the annular duct.
- the invention provides a hydrokinetic coupling device of the type described above, or characterized in that the cylindrical faces of the piston and of the casing are shaped so that the value of the pressure drop undergone by the fluid flowing in said annular duct is predetermined as a function of the axial position of the piston relative to the casing.
- the value of the pressure drop is constant whatever the axial position of the piston relative to the casing; - The passage section of the annular duct varies as a function of the axial position of the piston relative to the casing; - The section of passage of the annular duct is constant whatever the axial position of the piston relative to the housing; - the generator of the external face of revolution of the piston and the generator of the internal face of revolution of the casing are parallel; - The generator of the external face of revolution of the piston and / or the generator of the internal face of revolution of the casing comprises at least one rectilinear segment; - The generator of the external face of revolution of the piston and / or the generator of the internal face of revolution of the casing comprises at least one curvilinear segment; - The convex peripheral face of the piston and the internal concave face of revolution of the casing extend axially away from the annular transverse face of the piston; - The convex peripheral face of the piston and / or the internal

- a hydrokinetic coupling device 10 comprising a casing front 12 which bears on an external transverse face 12e means 13 for its connection with the end of a driving shaft (not shown), and in which are arranged a driven shaft 16, an impeller (not shown), which is integral in rotation with the casing 12, a turbine wheel 14, which is integral in rotation with the driven shaft 16, and a locking clutch 18.
- the casing 12 has a front wall 15 extending radially, the l the external radial end 15e is extended towards the rear, after a portion bent at 90 °, by an axial skirt 17.
- the free rear end edge of the axial skirt 17 is designed to allow the connection of the casing 12 with another housing (not shown) glo symmetrical balancing of the casing 12, for closing the coupling device 10.
- the impeller wheel and the turbine wheel 14 are components of a torque converter of conventional type, which makes it possible to transmit the driving torque supplied by the engine, when the vehicle is started, by means of the fluid, generally oil, contained in the interior volume of the casing 12.
- the locking clutch 18 makes it possible to secure the rotation of the driven shaft 16 with the casing 12, to compensate for the loss of energy transmitted to the driven shaft 16 which is due to a "sliding" of the fluid in the torque converter.
- the locking clutch 18 comprises a piston 20, which is integral in rotation with the turbine wheel 14 and the driven shaft 16, and which is axially movable relative to the casing 12, relative to the turbine 14 and relative the driven shaft 16.
- the piston 20 is thus able to occupy a first engaged front position called “bridging”, in which the piston 20 secures in rotation the driven shaft 16 with the housing 12, and a second position clear rear known as “disassembly”, in which the driven shaft 16 is not integral in rotation with the casing 12 by means of the piston 20.
- bridging first engaged front position
- disassembly in which the driven shaft 16 is not integral in rotation with the casing 12 by means of the piston 20.
- the piston 20 comprises a front annular transverse face 20a for bearing against a rear annular transverse face facing a 15a of the front wall 15 of the casing 12 when the piston 20 is in position and a convex external peripheral face of revolution 20e which delimits the piston radially outwards.
- the locking clutch 18 also comprises a torsion damper 24 of conventional structure, which connects the piston 20 to the turbine wheel. 14, and which dampens the vibrations transmitted to the driven shaft 16 when the clutch is in the bridging position.
- the piston 20 divides the interior volume of the casing 12 into a first front chamber 26, which is delimited axially by the bearing face 20a of the piston 20 and by the annular transverse face opposite 15a of the front wall 15, and in a second rear chamber 28, which is formed by the rest of the interior volume of the casing 12.
- the two chambers 26, 28 communicate with each other via an axial duct 30, of generally annular or tubular shape, which is delimited by the external peripheral face 20e of the piston 20, and by an internal concave face of revolution 17i of the axial skirt 17 which extends opposite the peripheral face external piston 20th 20. Bridging or disassembly of the locking clutch
- the control device causes a variation in the difference in fluid pressure in the front chamber 26 and in the rear chamber 28.
- the pressure difference causes the axial displacement of the piston 20 forwards or backwards relative to the casing 12, and it therefore also causes a circulation of fluid in the axial duct 30.
- the fluid flowing in the axial duct 30 undergoes a pressure drop, the value of which depends in particular on the flow rate of the fluid in the axial duct 30, which depends on the passage cross section of the axial duct 30.
- the external peripheral face or edge 20e of the piston 20 and the internal concave face of revolution 17i of the axial skirt 17 are produced so that ue the value of the pressure drop undergone by the fluid is predetermined or predefined for each axial position of the piston 20 relative to the casing 12.
- the value of the passage cross section of the axial duct 30 must be determined with precision, with minimum dimensional dispersions resulting from the mass production of the piston 20 and the axial skirt 17.
- the value of the pressure drop is independent of the axial position of the piston 20 relative to the housing 12, that is to say that it is constant, whatever the axial position of the piston 20 relative to the housing 12.
- the external peripheral face 20e of the piston 20 and the internal concave face of revolution 17i of the axial skirt 17 are cylindrical faces of revolution, that is to say that is to say that their generatrices are straight segments parallel to the main axis A of the coupling device 10.
- the passage section of the annular duct 30 is constant over the entire length of the duct and whatever the axial position pi ston 20 relative to the housing 20.
- the value of the pressure drop varies as a function of the axial position of the piston 20 relative to the housing 12.
- the external peripheral face 20e of the piston 20 and the internal concave face of revolution 17i of the axial skirt 17 are generally conical faces of axis A, that is to say that their generatrices are segments of straight inclined relative to the main axis A of the coupling device 10.
- the passage section of the axial duct 30 decreases because the external peripheral face 20e of the piston 20 approaches the internal concave face of revolution 17i of the axial skirt 17. Consequently, the value of the pressure drop increases.
- the generatrices of the face external device 20e of the piston 20 and of the internal concave face of revolution 17i of the axial skirt 17 are curved or curvilinear segments.
- the internal concave face of revolution 17i of the axial skirt 17 and / or the external peripheral face 20e of the piston 20 are produced by machining or by an additional striking step during their stamping, which allows the shape and dimensions of the axial duct 30 to be determined with precision. The manufacture of the.
- the external radial end 32 of the piston 20, in which the external peripheral face 20e is produced, is bent backwards relative to the bearing face 20a of the piston 20.
- the external peripheral face 20e of the piston 20 and the internal concave face of revolution 17i of the axial skirt 17 extend at a distance from the 90 ° bent portion of the casing 12.
- the radial end 32 of the pi ston 20 forms an axial skirt allowing to further increase the axial distance between the face external peripheral 20th of the piston, and therefore the internal concave face of revolution 17i of the axial skirt 17, relative to the 90 ° bent portion of the casing 12.
- the external radial end 32 is produced during the stamping of the piston 20.
- the external radial end 32 is an annular element attached to the piston, for example by welding or gluing.
- the shape and dimensions of the external peripheral face 20e of the piston 20 and of the internal concave face of revolution 17i of the axial skirt 17 being known, it is then possible to determine the value of the pressure drop whatever the conditions of operation of the coupling device 10, and for all the axial positions of the piston 20 relative to the casing 12.
- the temperature is mentioned in particular fluid, which is different when starting the vehicle or when the vehicle has been running for a certain time.
