Description

Mechanical coolant Pump
The present invention refers to a mechanical coolant pump for an internal combustion engine with an impeller for pumping the coolant into an outlet channel, wherein the outlet channel comprises an outlet valve.
A mechanical coolant is a coolant pump which is driven by the combustion engine, for example by using a driving belt driving a driving wheel of the pump. As long as the combustion engine is cold, only a minimum coolant flow is needed. Therefore, mechanical coolant pumps are used which are provided with an outlet valve for controlling the coolant circulation flow. As long as the combustion engine is cold, the outlet valve is closed so that the circulation of the lubricant is minimized, with the result that the combustion engine warming-up period is decreased.
Usually, outlet valves are used in the form of a pivoting flap, whereby the pivoting flap is positioned in the lubricant outlet channel. The pivoting flap can be controlled to rotate the flap into an open or closed position, whereby the positions determine the coolant circulation flow. The arrangement of such a pivoting flap inside the lubricant outlet channel restrains the coolant flow even at the open position of the flap and induces a flow resistance. Furthermore, such pivoting flaps can jam as a result of abrasion, distortion and particles which in the lubricant that adhere at the flap and the recess for the flap.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a mechanical coolant pump with an improved outlet valve.
This object is solved with a mechanical coolant pump with the features of claim 1. The mechanicai coolant pump for an internal combustion engine according to claim 1 comprises an impeller for pumping the coolant into an outlet channel which comprises an outlet valve. The outlet valve comprises a shiftable flat valve plate which is shiftable in a transversal plane of the outlet channel through a passing slit in the outlet channel wall.
A shiftable flat valve plate in the outlet channel enables the control of the coolant flow to the combustion engine in order to bring the optimum coolant volume during a cold start phase. A control of the coolant flow in the cold start phase of the combustion engine enables a quicker warming- up and therefore an improved energy-efficiency of the combustion engine. The shiftability of the valve plate in a transversal plane of the outlet channel through a passing slit in the outlet channel wall allows using an actuator. An actuator has a relative low actuation force because the sliding friction between the plate and the plate guiding is low and a pressure of the coolant acting against the valve plate does not significantly effects the actuation force which is necessary to move the valve plate into the open or closed position. Therefore, the coolant flow is not restrained during the circulation of the coolant.
According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the valve plate is positioned in a fluid-tight valve plate housing in the open position and the valve plate housing extends radially from the outlet channel. A fluid-tight valve plate housing keeps the valve plate always inside the lubricant space so that the passing slit does not need to be sealed.
Preferably, the valve plate housing is formed as a separate part of a main pump body. A separate installation of the valve plate housing to the main pump body improves the flexibility with respect to the form and material of the housing so that the valve plate housing can be made of a material different from the material of the pump main body. Alternatively, the valve plate housing is an integrated part of the main pump body. This construction allows faster and more cost-efficient production.
The main pump body is preferably provided with the passing sfit for the shiftable flat valve plate.
According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the main pump body is provided with guiding slits at the outlet channel for the shiftable flat vaive plate, and the valve plate is guided in the guiding slits. This guiding slits provide an additional support of the valve plate against the pressure of the coolant flow which impacts permanently on the valve plate in the not opened position and ensures the transversal movability of the valve plate in the outlet channel.
Preferably, the valve plate is driven by an actuator.
According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the actuator is directly connected to the valve plate housing, so that no gear or lever or other means are necessary to transform the actuator movement to the valve plate movement.
Preferably, the vafve plate is driven by a pneumatic actuator. The valve plate can also be driven by other actuators like electrical or thermostatic. The pneumatic energy can be tapped at different positions at the combustion engine so that the use of a pneumatic actuator is simple and cost-efficient.
The pneumatic actuator is preferably provided with a membrane and an actuator rod perpendicular to the membrane, whereby the actuator rod is directly connected to and axially in line with the valve plate, so that no gear, lever etc. is necessary, The following is a detailed description of an embodiment of the invention with reference to the drawings, in which: fig. 1 shows a perspective view of the mechanical coolant pump, fig. 2 shows a longitudinal section of the mechanical coolant pump, fig, 3 shows the cross-section of the mechanical coolant pump of fig, 2 along line III - III, and fig, 4 shows a bottom view of the mechanical coolant pump.

The pump main body 11 holds a rotatable impeller 18 which sucks the coolant axialiy and pumps the coolant radially outwardly into a volute 15. The impeller 18 is driven by the combustion engine by using a driving belt (not shown) which drives a driving wheel 38 of the mechanical coolant pump 10. The coolant flows as a result of centrifugal forces from the volute 15 into an outlet channel 16 and through an outlet valve 20 to an outlet opening 14. The outlet valve 20 is positioned at the terminal end of the outlet channel 16.
The outlet valve 20 comprises a shiftable flat vaive plate 22 which is shiftable in a transversal plane of the outlet channel 16 through a passing siit 24 of an outlet channel wall 26. The valve plate 22 is in its open position positioned in a fluid-tight valve plate housing 28 which extends radially from the outlet channel 16 at the passing slit 24. The shiftable valve plate 22 is driven by a pneumatic actuator 32, whereby the valve plate 22 guides in guiding slits 30 and whereby the guiding slits 30 are provided in the channel wall 26.
The actuator 32 is provided with a pneumatic membrane 34 in a membrane housing 35 and an actuator rod 36 perpendicular to the membrane 34, whereby the actuator rod 36 is axiaily in line with the valve plate 22, The actuator 32 is directly connected to the valve plate housing 28. In the open position, the valve plate 22 is completely positioned inside the vaive plate housing 28 so that the coolant flow is not restrained. As long as the combustion engine is cold, the outlet valve 20 can be completely or partially closed by the pneumatic actuator 32.
In fig. 2 a longitudinal section of the mechanical coolant pump 10 is shown . The mechanical coolant pum p 10 comprises a pump main body 11. At the top of the pump main body 11 the valve plate housing 28 is positioned, whereby the valve plate housing 28 extends radially from the outlet channel 16 and perpendicular with respect to the flange 12 of the mechanical coolant pump 10. In fig. 3 a cross-section III - IlI of the mechanical coolant pump 10 of fig. 2 is shown . The shiftable valve plate 22 is driven by the pneumatic actuator 32 via a pneumatic membrane 34 and an actuator rod 36. The actuator rod 36 is axially in line with the valve plate 22 and perpendicular to the mem brane 34, The membrane 34 is preloaded by a preload spring 37 into the cfosed position of the outlet valve 20. Alternatively, the preload spring 37 can be arranged inversely to preload the outlet valve 20 in the open position so that the construction is failsafe.
