Definitions
- the invention relates to a remplissigk ⁇ its agreeer, for example a
- Liquid containers often have a bottom-side inlet / outlet opening for the supply or discharge of a liquid.
- An example is the calming pot of a fuel tank, through which fuel is to flow from a Ventu ⁇ düse coming.
- a mushroom valve In order for the required in the sedative pot fuel does not drain again, is located in the said opening usually a mushroom valve.
- Such valves have an elongate shaft with a Ve ⁇ til tent B ⁇ i connected thereto. Looking in the direction of the shaft, the valve screen consisting of an elastic material is arranged mostly concentrically with the shaft
- the still unpublished DE 10 2006 026 135.6 which is based on the same inventor as the invention described here, discloses a mushroom valve which comprises a valve screen with shaft connected thereto and at least one sealing lip on the underside of the valve screen between its sealing edge and the shaft is trained.
- the mushroom valve is intended to allow improved sealing in liquid containers that receive a solid component liquid as impurities, such as grains of sand or the like.
- a first aspect of the invention relates to a liquid container.
- a first embodiment of the same comprises a bottom-side opening for the supply or removal of a liquid, wherein a groove in the container bottom is formed in the container interior in the region of the opening.
- Em thus designed liquid container shows improved tightness, if in the bottom disposed in its opening a mushroom valve mentioned in the introductory part of this specification still unpublished DE 102006026135.6 -. is arranged.
- the mushroom valve of the still unpublished DE 102006026135.6 -. has on the bottom side of the valve shield at least one sealing lip, so that in use prevent both the Ventiltranrand and said additional sealing lip leakage of liquid from the liquid container.
- the additional sealing lip ensures in this case the tightness of the liquid container.
- the groove or elongated recess in the bottom of the liquid container provides a residence space for the above-mentioned particles and is provided between the sealing edge of the mushroom valve and a sealing lip and / or between two sealing lips of the mushroom valve. If particles reach between the sealing edge and a sealing lip or even between two sealing lips because of a raised sealing edge, the particles sink in the groove and are much less likely to get under the sealing lip which is sealing or sealing in comparison to a smooth container bottom formation. In this respect, the groove increases the reliability with which the at least one sealing lip of the mushroom valve can seal the liquid container.
- the groove forms a closed curve around the opening, so that the tightness of the liquid container is increased isotropically in its ground plane.
- each sealing lip is increased in its reliability.
- embodiments may be provided in which the at least one groove forms a concentric circle.
- This form is suitable for a mushroom valve with a cylindrical valve screen with a circular sealing lip in order to achieve an isotropic improvement in the container bottom plane of the tightness.
- a further variant of the liquid container provides that the mushroom valve comprises a valve screen with associated shaft and on the underside of the Valve screen between its sealing edge and the shaft is formed at least one sealing lip.
- the liquid container may be formed as a calming pot for a fuel tank of a motor vehicle.
- the mushroom valve consists of a material that is initially sufficiently inert to fuels such as gasoline or diesel. Furthermore, it must be sufficiently soft to ensure the tightness and should be produced by inexpensive injection molding. As a material, silicone can be chosen.
- the embodiment of the last paragraph leads to motor vehicles that the fuel gauge is given reliable at low levels in the fuel tank and the existing residual amount of fuel can be used safely. If there is little fuel in the calming pot, e.g. 5 liters or less, and if this residual fuel quantity is measured, then the tightness of the intake / outlet opening mentioned in the introductory part of the description with its mushroom valve influences the accuracy of the measured value. This measured value, which is usually indicated to the driver by the on-board electronics in liters or in (remaining) kilometers (which can still be driven) to indicate that it is necessary to refuel soon, can cause a considerable error due to a leaking mushroom valve be.
- the sealing lip-equipped mushroom valve improves the tightness of the calming pot, resulting in more reliable residuals through on-board electronics and greater customer satisfaction.
- Embodiments of the liquid container further include a mushroom valve having between one and four sealing lips. It should be noted that with a sealing lip in the context of this invention representation not the sealing outer edge of the valve screen or the sealing edge of the mushroom valve should be understood. Since the sealing lips must be passed by the liquid one behind the other, the multiple sealing lips increase the tightness several times.
- liquid container further provide that the sealing lips of the mushroom valve are concentric to the shaft and thus circular in shape, so that in cooperation with a circular groove an isotropic seal in the container bottom plane is achieved.
- Variants of the liquid container arranged in the mushroom valve have a elastic valve screen whose elasticity is selected such that the sealing lip is elastically decoupled from the adjacent circumferential sealing edge of the valve screen and / or a beDnachbarten sealing lip.
- This design ensures that the above-mentioned lifting a sealing lip or Abdichtrandes by solid components does not cause the adjacent sealing lip is also raised and thus a further sealing agency is disabled.
- the elastic decoupling ensures a reliable sealing of the sealing edge and the at least one sealing lip.
- the elastic decoupling can be achieved in that a sufficiently elastic material in combination with a sufficient distance between the sealing lip and Abdichtrand or sealing lip and adjacent sealing lip is selected.
- valve screen is formed wave-shaped. This design supports the above-discussed elastic decoupling of a sealing lip of an adjacent peripheral sealing edge of the valve screen and / or an adjacent sealing lip and thus increase the reliability of the seal again.
- An example of a mushroom valve in the opening of the bottom of the liquid container may have a substantially web-shaped sealing lip.
- the valve screen with sealing lip (s) is thereby formed T-shaped, whereby a higher surface pressure is achieved on the sealing lips.
- Embodiments of the liquid container further provide that the mushroom valve located in the opening has a valve screen with a central trough.
- the existing of an elastic material trough edge can then create the edge of the sealed opening and form an additional sealing contact point.
- the trough can be symmetrical to the shaft.
- Figure 6 is a plan view of the bottom of the BeruhiD supply pot.
- FIG. 1 shows a fuel tank 1 in the schematic side view.
- Fuel tank 1 has a calming pot 2 with a fuel pump 3 and a conically downwardly tapered riser 4, at the lower end of which a venturi 5 is located. Via a connecting piece 6, fuel passes from the calming pot 2 to the engine.
- Figure 2 shows a mushroom valve 6, which consists of a shaft 7 and a concentric to this valve screen 8 made of polyethylene, in section along the extending through the shaft 7 axis of symmetry S.
- the mushroom valve 6 serves a in the bottom 9 of a container 10th To seal located inlet s- / outlet opening 11, through which liquid from below into the container 10 can flow in or out.
- the container 10 may be the calming pot 2 arranged in the interior of the fuel tank 1, as shown in FIG.
- This sealing edge 12 surrounds the shaft 7 circular and ensures that at a suitable pressure on the sealing edge 12, the inlet s - / outlet port 11 is sealed.
- valve screen 8 has on its underside, i. On the side facing the container bottom 9, two sealing lips 13 and 14, respectively. If the sealing edge 12 is locally raised due to solid components in the liquid and is therefore leaky, then the inlet / outlet opening 11 is further sealed by the two sealing lips 13 and 14 , A liquid flowing in the direction of the arrow P would have to pass through two further seals in the form of the sealing lips 13 and 14, in spite of the raised sealing edge 12. Since the sealing lips 13, 14 extend concentrically to the shaft 7, the arrangement of seals shown represents a kind of series of seals, by which the leakage rate is significantly reduced.
- the top of the valve screen 8 need not be convex, but may be wavy as shown in Figure 2.
- the wave-like shape supports the elastic or mechanical decoupling of the individual sealing areas.
- a sealing lip 13 or 14 in each case below a wave trough 15 or 16 of the top of the valve screen 8 is a sealing lip 13 or 14.
- the said decoupling ensures that in a raised by solid components such as grains of sand sealing edge 12, the adjacent sealing lip 13 or the other sealing lip 14 is not raised also. Likewise, this means that with additional solid components under the outer sealing lip 13, the inner sealing lip 14 is not also raised.
- FIG. 3 shows a further embodiment of a mushroom valve 6 which, in comparison to the embodiment of FIG. 2, has a valve screen 8 with a central depression 17.
- the trough 17 is thus in contact with the edge of the inlet s / outlet opening 11.
- the contact point K additionally seals the inlet / outlet opening 11.
- Figure 4 also shows an embodiment with a central well 17 and a contact point K between the MuldenDrand and the edge of the inlet s- / outlet opening 11.
- the valve screen 8 is even more pronounced undulating and has web-shaped sealing lips 8 and 9. Die In this area T-shaped design of the valve screen 3 supports the elastic decoupling of Abdichtrand 7 and sealing lips 8, 9th
- Figure 5 also shows a liquid container 10 with bottom 9, wherein 9 grooves 18 are introduced in the bottom inside.
- the grooves 18 are located between the sealing edge 12 and the outer sealing lip 13, between the sealing lips 13 and 14 and between the inner sealing lip 14 and the contact point K. If one of the sealing elements 12, 13 or 14 leaks, because it is lifted by a particle Thus, the particles sink into the grooves 18. This reduces the likelihood that the particles will override the next sealing element.
- the grooves 18 stops the longer, the greater their volume. This results from the fact that over time particles can accumulate in the grooves 18.
- the groove volume should be as large as possible. Since no arbitrarily deep grooves 18 can be introduced into the container bottom 9, it is advisable to choose the distance between the grooves 18 from each other particularly small. On the other hand, this area between the grooves must be sufficiently large, so that the sealing lips are functionally reliable while observing the relevant tolerances
- Figure 6 shows a plan view of the container bottom 9 in the region of the opening 11. It can be seen three grooves 18a, 18b and 18c, which are arranged as concentric circles around the center M of the opening 11 in the container bottom 9. Relative to the line L through the center M, the grooves 18a, 18b and 18c are spaced from each other. In the sealing lip contact areas 20, 21 and 22 are in use, the two sealing lips 13 and 14 and a further sealing lip. The grooves 18a, 18b and 18c are in this case closed curves 19, so that the sealing lips are protected along its entire circumference. Outside the outermost groove 18c, the sealing edge 12 of the mushroom valve 6 comes to rest.
