Stand der TechnikState of the art
Eine solche Vorrichtung zur Kraftstoffversorgung einer Verbrennungskraftmaschine ist aus der DE 102 47 142 A1 bekannt. Sie ist zwischen einer Kraftstoffzuführung und einem Hochdruckspeicher, auch Common - Rail genannt, angeordnet, an den die einzelnen Einspritzdüsen der Verbrennungskraftmaschine angeschlossen sind. Für einen ordnungsgemäßen und sparsamen Betrieb der Verbrennungskraftmaschine ist es erforderlich, zahlreiche Anschlüsse und Hilfseinrichtungen zur Verfügung zu haben, die miteinander und mit der Verbrennungskraftmaschine und dem Kraftstofftank verbunden werden müssen. Der Montageaufwand ist dementsprechend hoch. Häufig sind die Platzverhältnisse im Motorraum eines Kraftfahrzeuges sehr beengt, was es schwierig macht, die nötigen Leitungen und Hilfseinrichtungen zufriedenstellend zu platzieren und zu montieren.Such a device for supplying fuel to an internal combustion engine is known from DE 102 47 142 A1. It is arranged between a fuel supply and a high-pressure accumulator, also called a common rail, to which the individual injection nozzles of the internal combustion engine are connected. For a proper and economical operation of the internal combustion engine, it is necessary to numerous ports and Having auxiliaries available to be connected to each other and to the internal combustion engine and the fuel tank. The installation effort is accordingly high. Often, the space in the engine compartment of a motor vehicle is very cramped, which makes it difficult to place the necessary lines and auxiliary equipment satisfactorily and to assemble.
Offenbarung der Erfindung Vorteile der ErfindungDisclosure of the Invention Advantages of the Invention
Die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung zur Kraftstoffversorgung einer Verbrennungskraftmaschine mit den Merkmalen gemäß Anspruch 1 hat den Vorteil, dass sie eine modulartige Einbaueinheit bildet, die platzsparend und in funktionsfähiger Form montierbar ist, ohne dass es der gesonderten Montage von Hilfseinrichtungen oder der Verlegung von niederdruckseitigen Versorgungsleitungen bedarf. Die Niederdruckeinheit lässt sich auf Grund ihrer quaderförmigen Gestalt und der geringen Druckbelastung aus einem leicht bearbeitbaren Werkstoff herstellen auf allen Seiten leicht bearbeiten und demgemäss sehr einfach mit allen notwendigen Bohrungen und Anschlüssen versehen.The inventive device for supplying fuel to an internal combustion engine with the features of claim 1 has the advantage that it forms a module-like mounting unit, which can be mounted in a space-saving and functional form, without the need for separate installation of auxiliary equipment or the installation of low-pressure side supply lines. The low-pressure unit can be due to their cuboid shape and the low pressure load made of an easily editable material easily edit on all sides and accordingly very easy to provide with all necessary holes and connections.
In den abhängigen Ansprüchen sind vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen und Weiterbildungen der erfindungsgemäßen Hochdruck-Radialkolbenpumpe angegeben. Durch die Ausbildung gemäß Anspruch 2 wird der Vorteil erhalten, dass die für die Entlüftung und/oder Überdruckableitung der Zahnradpumpe keine separaten Leitungen und/oder Anschlüsse benötigt werden.In the dependent claims advantageous refinements and developments of the high-pressure radial piston pump according to the invention are given. Due to the design according to claim 2, the advantage is obtained that no separate lines and / or connections are required for the venting and / or overpressure derivation of the gear pump.
Die Ausgestaltung nach Anspruch 3 hat den Vorteil, dass sich die Montage des recht komplizierten Entlüftungs- und Überdruckventils stark vereinfacht. Es ist insbesondere nur erforderlich, die entsprechenden Module in Passbohrungen eines daran angepassten Profils einzufügen und die Bohrungen nachfolgend nach außen zu verschließen, beispielsweise durch darin eingesetzte Verschlussschrauben oder -stopfen.The embodiment according to claim 3 has the advantage that greatly simplifies the assembly of the quite complicated venting and pressure relief valve. It is In particular, it is only necessary to insert the corresponding modules into fitting bores of a profile adapted thereto and subsequently to close the bores to the outside, for example by means of locking screws or plugs inserted therein.
Durch die Ausbildung gemäß Anspruch 4 ist es vereinfacht möglich, ein Kraftstofffilter in die Vorrichtung zu integrieren oder daran anzuschließen.The embodiment according to claim 4 makes it possible in a simplified manner to integrate or connect a fuel filter to the device.
Durch die Ausbildung gemäß Anspruch 5 wird die Möglichkeit vereinfacht, ein Zumessventil mit anzuschließen. Zumessventile haben den Zweck, das von der Hochdruck-Radialkolbenpumpe in den Hochdruckspeicher eingespeiste Kraftstoffvolumen an den tatsächlichen Bedarf anzupassen. Dieser wird maßgeblich durch die Lage des Betriebsbereiches bestimmt, in dem sich die Verbrennungskraftmaschine befindet. Beispielsweise im Leerlauf wird erheblich weni- ger Kraftstoff benötigt als im Volllastbereich. Demgemäss wird das der Hochdruck-Radialkolbenpumpe zum Beispiel im Leerlauf zugeführte Kraftstoffvolumen von dem Zumessventil entsprechend reduziert und vermieden, dass große Überschüsse an Kraftstoff auf einen hohen Druck von gegebenenfalls mehr als 2.000 bar verdichtet und anschließend ungenutzt in den Kraftstofftank ent- spannt werden.The embodiment according to claim 5 simplifies the possibility of connecting a metering valve. Metering valves have the purpose of adapting the fuel volume fed into the high-pressure accumulator by the high-pressure radial piston pump to the actual requirements. This is largely determined by the location of the operating area in which the internal combustion engine is located. For example, at idle, significantly less fuel is needed than in the full load range. Accordingly, the volume of fuel supplied to the high-pressure radial-piston pump, for example, when idling, is correspondingly reduced by the metering valve and prevents large excesses of fuel from being compressed to a high pressure of possibly more than 2,000 bar and then released into the fuel tank unused.

Fig.1 zeigt eine Vorrichtung zur Kraftstoffversorgung einer Verbrennungskraftmaschine in längsgeschnittener Darstellung. Sie umfasst eine Hochdruck- Radialkolbenpumpe 1 , die regelmäßig so montiert wird, dass das vorstehende Ende in das Gehäuse der Verbrennungskraftmaschine hineinragt und von einem rotierenden Teil der Verbrennungskraftmschine in eine Rotationsbe- wegung versetzbar ist. Im allgemeinen ist die Verbrennungskraftmaschine und das Gehäuse 18 der Hochdruck-Radialkolbenpumpe durch eine Flanschverbindung lösbar verschraubt.1 shows a device for fuel supply of an internal combustion engine in longitudinal section. It comprises a high-pressure radial piston pump 1, which is regularly mounted so that the projecting end protrudes into the housing of the internal combustion engine and can be set into a rotational movement by a rotating part of the internal combustion engine. In general, the internal combustion engine and the housing 18 of the high-pressure radial piston pump is releasably screwed by a flange connection.
Das Gehäuse 18 der Hochdruck-Radialkolbenpumpe umfasst eine darin aufge- nommene und um eine Achse rotierende Antriebswelle 2 mit einem in radialer Richtung vorstehenden Nocken oder Exzenter 3, mit dem zumindest ein in einem Zylinder 4 aufgenommener Kolben 5 in Eingriff steht, der durch den Nocken oder Exzenter 3 aufeinanderfolgend in radialer Richtung hin- und herverschiebbar ist. Die Antriebswelle 2 ist durch Gleitlager in dem Gehäuse 18 rotierbar gelagert.The housing 18 of the high-pressure radial piston pump comprises a drive shaft 2 accommodated therein and rotating about an axis with a cam or eccentric 3 protruding in the radial direction, with which at least one piston 5 accommodated in a cylinder 4 engages through the cam or eccentric 3 can be successively moved back and forth in the radial direction. The drive shaft 2 is rotatably supported by plain bearings in the housing 18.
Der Zylinder 4 bildet einen Bestandteil eines mit dem Gehäuse 18 verschraubten Zylinderkopfes 19. In diesem ist ein Pumpenraum 20 enthalten, der einen Bestandteil des Zylinders 4 bildet und von der Stirnseite des darin hin- und her verschiebbaren Kolbens 5 begrenzt ist.The cylinder 4 forms part of a bolted to the housing 18 cylinder head 19. In this, a pump chamber 20 is included, the one Part of the cylinder 4 forms and is bounded by the end face of the reciprocable piston 5 back and forth.
In den Pumpenraum 20 mündet die Sauleitung 24 der Hochdruck-Radialkol- benpumpe 1 , die durch ein Saugventil 21 gegen eine Rückströmung des Kraftstoffes gesichert ist, sowie eine Hochdruckleitung 22, die mit dem Hochdruckspeicher oder Common - Rail verbunden und durch ein Hochdruckventil 22 nur in Richtung des Hochdruckspeichers durchströmbar ist.In the pump chamber 20, the suction line 24 of the high-pressure Radialkol- pumps 1, which is secured by a suction valve 21 against backflow of the fuel, and a high-pressure line 22, which connected to the high pressure accumulator or common rail and through a high pressure valve 22 opens only in Direction of the high-pressure accumulator can be flowed through.
An der von der Verbrennungskraftmaschine 1 abgewandten Seite der Hochdruck-Radialkolbenpumpe 1 ist eine Niederdruckeinheit 6 und daran eine Zahnradpumpe 7 befestigt.On the side facing away from the internal combustion engine 1 side of the high-pressure radial piston pump 1, a low pressure unit 6 and a gear pump 7 is attached thereto.
Fig. 2 zeigt den inneren Aufbau der Niederdruckeinheit 6. Diese enthält die niederdruckseitigen Anschlüsse 24, 25 der Hochdruck-Radialkolbenpumpe 1 umfasst sowie des Vorlaufs 8 und Rücklaufs 9 der Zahnradpumpe 7 und des Vorlaufs 10 und des Rücklaufs 11 der Kraftstoffversorgung. Ein dem Rücklauf 11 vorgeschaltetes Kraftstoffüberlaufventil 28 regelt den Vordruck der Hochdruck-Radialkolbenpumpe 1.This contains the low-pressure side ports 24, 25 of the high-pressure radial piston pump 1 includes and the flow 8 and return 9 of the gear pump 7 and the flow 10 and the return 11 of the fuel supply. A return flow 11 upstream fuel spill valve 28 regulates the form of the high-pressure radial piston pump first
Die Niederdruckeinheit 6 lässt sich auf Grund ihrer quaderförmigen Gestalt auf allen Seiten bearbeiten und dadurch besonders leicht mit allen notwendigen Bohrungen und Anschlüssen versehen. Sie besteht bevorzugt aus einem einfach formbaren und gegebenenfalls spanabhebend bearbeitbaren Werk- stoff, beispielsweise aus Stahl oder Alumium. Extern verlegte Leitungen können dadurch weitgeghend vermieden und durch interne und gegebenenfalls einander durchschneidende Bohrungen ersetzt sein. Außenseitige Mündungen von Bohrungen, die nicht benötigt werden, lassen sich dabei sehr einfach durch in die Mündungen eingepresste Dichtstopfen dauerhaft verschließen, beispielsweise durch mit Übermaß erzeugte Kugeln 26 aus gehärtetem Stahl, die in die Mündungen der Bohrungen eingepresst sind. Die Mündungen können natürlich auch mit einem Innengewinde versehen sein, in das eine Dichtschraube 27 dichtend eingeschraubt ist.The low-pressure unit 6 can be edited on all sides due to its cuboid shape and thus particularly easy to provide with all necessary holes and connections. It preferably consists of a readily moldable and optionally machinable material, such as steel or aluminum. Externally routed cables can thus be largely avoided and replaced by internal and possibly intersecting holes. Outer mouths of holes that are not needed, can be very easily sealed by pressed into the mouths sealing plug, for example, by oversized balls 26 made of hardened steel, which are pressed into the mouths of the holes. The mouths can of course also be provided with an internal thread into which a sealing screw 27 is screwed sealingly.
Durch ihre kompakte Bauweise kann die Vorrichtung als in sich geschlossener Modul sehr leicht und platzsparend in den Zwischenraum des Gehäuses der Hochdruck-Radialkolbenpumpe 1 und der Zahrandpumpe 7 montiert und in Betrieb genommen werden. Im Extremfall ist es nur noch erforderlich, die Vor- richtung durch eine einzige Niederdruckleitung mit dem Kraftstofftrank und durch eine einzige Hochdruckleitung mit dem Hochdrucksammler zu verbinden. Die Niederdruckeinheit 6 enthält ein Entlüftungsventil 12 sowie ein Überdruckventil 13, durch das sichergestellt ist, dass die Zahnrandpumpe 7 nicht überlastet wird und dass der der Hochdruck-Radialkolbenpumpe 1 zugeführte Kraft- stoff immer einen bestimmten Duck von max. 6 bar hat.Due to their compact design, the device can be mounted as a self-contained module very easy and space-saving in the space of the housing of the high-pressure radial piston pump 1 and the Zahrandpumpe 7 and put into operation. In extreme cases, it is only necessary to connect the device to the fuel tank through a single low pressure line and to the high pressure header through a single high pressure line. The low-pressure unit 6 contains a venting valve 12 and a pressure relief valve 13, which ensures that the toothed rim pump 7 is not overloaded and that the fuel supplied to the high-pressure radial piston pump 1 always has a certain pressure of max. 6 bar.
Das aus der Zahnradpumpe 7 über den Rücklauf 9 in die Niederdruckeinheit 6 eintretende Kraftstoffvolumen wird in dem Überdruckventil 13 auf den erwünschten Druck eingestellt, nachfolgend durch das Entlüftungsventil 12 entgast und einem externen Kraftstofffilter zugeführt. Die Niederdruckeinheit 6 enthält dazu einen Vorlaufanschluss 14 und einen Rücklaufanschluss 15 für den Anschluss des externen und nicht dargestellten Kraftstofffilters. Hierdurch wird sichergestellt, dass der der Hochdruck-Radialkolbenpumpe 1 zugeführte Kraftstoff völlig frei von Schwebstoffen und Gasen ist, die dazu führen können, dass sich Funktionsbeeinträchtigungen der Einspritzdüsen oder anderer Teile ergeben. Die Verwendung eines externen Kraftstofffilters hat dabei den Vorteil, dass ein werkzeugloser Austausch des Kraftstofffilters im Rahmen der Wartungsintervalle eines Kraftfahrzeuges möglich und dauerhaft eine zuverlässige Funktion der Verbrennungskraftmaschine gewährleistet ist. Die Verwendung eines internen Kraftstofffilters in der Niederdruckeinheit 6 ist dadurch nicht ausgeschlossen. Das Überdruckventil 13 und das Entlüftungsventil 12 sind durch eine Bohrung 23 mit der Ansaugleitung 10 des Kraftstofftanks verbunden. Nicht benötigte Kraftstoffmengen und entweichende Gase werden dadurch in den Kraftstofftank abgeleitet.The fuel volume entering from the gear pump 7 via the return line 9 into the low pressure unit 6 is adjusted to the desired pressure in the pressure relief valve 13, subsequently degassed by the venting valve 12 and fed to an external fuel filter. The low-pressure unit 6 contains for this purpose a flow connection 14 and a return connection 15 for the connection of the external and not shown fuel filter. This ensures that the fuel supplied to the high-pressure radial piston pump 1 is completely free from suspended particles and gases, which can lead to functional impairments of the injection nozzles or other parts. The use of an external fuel filter has the advantage that a tool-free replacement of the fuel filter within the maintenance intervals of a motor vehicle possible and permanently reliable operation of the internal combustion engine is guaranteed. The usage an internal fuel filter in the low-pressure unit 6 is thereby not excluded. The pressure relief valve 13 and the vent valve 12 are connected through a bore 23 to the intake pipe 10 of the fuel tank. Unnecessary amounts of fuel and escaping gases are thereby discharged into the fuel tank.
Das Überdruckventil 13 und das Entlüftungsventil 12 sind beide in funktionsfähigen Modulen enthalten, die in Bohrungen der Niederdruckeinheit 6 dichtend eingefügt, insbesondere eingepresst sind. Beide Module sind vorgefertigt. Ihr Einbau und Ihre Verwendung erfordern daher keine spezielle Sachkenntnis oder Justierung.The pressure relief valve 13 and the vent valve 12 are both contained in functional modules that are sealingly inserted into holes of the low pressure unit 6, in particular pressed. Both modules are prefabricated. Their installation and use therefore require no special expertise or adjustment.
Der Rücklaufanschluss 15 des Kraftstofffilters ist mit dem Anschluss 17 des nicht dargestellten Zumessventils verbunden. Dieses regelt die der Hochdruck- Radialkolbenpumpe zugeführte Kraftstoffmenge auf das von der Verbrennungskraftmaschine jeweils benötigte Niveau ein. Überschüssige Mengen werden über das Zumessventil und die in der Niederdruckeinheit 6 enthaltene Nullförderdrossel 16 zurück in den Kraftstofftank geleitet.The return port 15 of the fuel filter is connected to the port 17 of the metering valve, not shown. This regulates the high-pressure radial piston pump supplied amount of fuel to the level required by the internal combustion engine. Excessive amounts are passed back via the metering valve and the zero feed throttle 16 contained in the low-pressure unit 6 back into the fuel tank.
Die benötigten Kraftstoffmengen werden der Ansaugöffnung 18 der Hochdruck- Radialkolbenpumpe 1 zugeführt und über das Ansaugventil 21 (Fig.1 ) in den Pumpenraum 20 eingespeist, darin verdichtet und unter hohem Druck über das Hochdruckventil 22 ausgestoßen und in den Hochduckspeicher überführt. Der Rücklauf 25 der Hochdruck-Radialkolbenpumpe 1 ist mit dem Kraftstofftank verbunden.The required quantities of fuel are the intake port 18 of the high-pressure radial piston pump 1 and fed via the intake valve 21 (Figure 1) into the pump chamber 20, compressed therein and ejected under high pressure via the high pressure valve 22 and transferred to the high pressure storage. The return 25 of the high-pressure radial piston pump 1 is connected to the fuel tank.
Fig. 3 zeigt eine Niederdruckeinheit 6 ähnlich der Bauform nach Fig. 2 in quergeschnittener Darstellung, die nur noch durch eine Leitung mit dem Kraftstofftank verbunden und dadurch besonders einfach zu montieren ist. Fig. 3 shows a low pressure unit 6 similar to the design of FIG. 2 in a cross-sectional view, which is connected only by a line to the fuel tank and thus is particularly easy to assemble.
