Abstract
The present utility model patent relates to a thin strip placed beside the belt, having the same profile as said belt and made of a material 20% weaker than the original material of the belt, so that it breaks before the belt and prevents the belt from breaking unexpectedly. It is formed by a thin warning strip (1) laterally glued to the toothed vehicle belt and monitored by an electrical sensor (3) placed beside said thin warning belt (1) to give warning, using a signal sent to the dashboard of the vehicle (4) in the form of an indicator (5), that it has broken, giving the driver plenty of time to swap the belt and to prevent further damage being caused to the vehicle.
Description
"DISPOSITIVO DE ALERTA PARA CORREIA DENTADA DE "BELT TOWER ALERT DEVICE
VEÍCULO AUTOMOTOR" AUTOMOTIVE VEHICLE "
Refere-se a presente patente de modelo de utilidade, que diz respeito à indústria automotiva, a um dispositivo de alerta introduzido em correia para veiculo automotor, comumente designada de "correia dentada", This utility model patent relates to the automotive industry to a warning device introduced in a motor vehicle belt, commonly referred to as a "toothed belt",
A correia dentada é uma peça, de extrema importância em um veículo automotor porque atua no motor do veículo, ligando o eixo- comando de válvulas ao virabrequim, sincronizando essas duas partes e fazendo com que as válvulas de admissão e de escapamento se abram e fechem no momento exato. Também mantém o sincronismo entre o virabrequim (que transfere a força do motor às rodas) e o comando de válvulas (responsável pela entrada e saída de gases no cilindro). The timing belt is an extremely important part in a motor vehicle because it acts on the engine of the vehicle by connecting the camshaft to the crankshaft, synchronizing these two parts and causing the intake and exhaust valves to open and close. at the exact moment. It also maintains synchronism between the crankshaft (which transfers engine power to the wheels) and the camshaft (responsible for gas in and out of the cylinder).
Composta por borracha, cordonéis de fibra de vidro e tecido de proteção para os seus dentes, a peça, que é conhecida, também, tecnicamente, por correia sincronizadora, começou a ser usada no início dos anos 60, durante o lançamento de motores. Composed of rubber, fiberglass cord and protective fabric for your teeth, the piece, which is also technically known as a timing belt, began to be used in the early 1960s during the launch of engines.
Sua atuação no funcionamento do veículo é tão importante, que quando se rompe, em geral por desgaste não constatado pelo usuário, esta sincronia de trabalho entre os dois componentes é afetada. As válvulas começam a se movimentar de forma desordenada e os pistões permanecem trabalhando (subindo e descendo) sem critérios. A consequência pode ser catastrófica: os pistões e válvulas podem se chocar, ocasionando o empenamento das válvulas e danos ao cabeçote. Its performance in the operation of the vehicle is so important that when it breaks down, usually due to wear not noticed by the user, this working synchronization between the two components is affected. The valves begin to move in a disorderly manner and the pistons keep working (rising and falling) without criteria. The consequence can be catastrophic: pistons and valves can collide, causing valve bending and head damage.
Hoje, devido as exigências dos motores modernos, novos materiais e tecnologias foram introduzidos na fabricação de correias sincronizadoras, de modo a melhorar sua performance e durabilidade. Utilizando materiais de alta resistência em seus compostos de borracha
e revestimentos especiais, que protegem contra agentes externos para atender a essas exigências, (óleos, ação do ozônio, abrasão e calor); malha de tração em fibra de vidro e dentes moldados com desenho e espaçamento precisos. Today, due to the demands of modern engines, new materials and technologies have been introduced in the manufacture of timing belts in order to improve their performance and durability. Using high strength materials in their rubber compounds and special coatings that protect against external agents to meet these requirements (oils, ozone action, abrasion and heat); Fiberglass traction mesh and molded teeth with precise design and spacing.
Contudo, quando a correia se rompe com o motor em movimento, o carro pára imediatamente, como se o motorista o tivesse desligado. Isso acontece porque os ciclos de alimentação e de escape do carro se interrompem e, neste caso, é possível que, na subida do pistão (para expulsar os gases da combustão) a válvula não recue no tempo certo, o que pode acarretar o empenamento de suas hastes. Pelo mesmo motivo, também são prováveis danos nos pistões e demais componentes, causando um enorme prejuízo ao veículo. However, when the belt breaks with the engine running, the car stops immediately, as if the driver had turned it off. This is because the feed and exhaust cycles of the car are interrupted and in this case it is possible that the valve rising (to expel the combustion gases) the valve does not retract at the right time, which may result in warping of the piston. your rods. For the same reason, damage to the pistons and other components is also likely, causing huge damage to the vehicle.
A substituição da correia antes que ela rebente, é relativamente barata quando comparada à retífica de cabeçote e à troca das válvulas amassadas, que chega a ser de 10 a 100 vezes maior, por isso fazer a troca da peça antes que o problema apareça dá bem menos dor-de- cabeça para o motorista, porém isso fica difícil porque não existe um mecanismo que alerte o motorista que a mesma esta no fim de sua vida útil, e os condutores por sua vez se esquecem de acompanhar sua manutenção . Replacing the belt before it breaks is relatively inexpensive compared to head grinding and bending valve change, which is up to 10 to 100 times larger, so changing the part before the problem comes along is fine. This is less of a headache for the driver, but this is difficult because there is no mechanism to alert the driver that it is at the end of its working life, and drivers in turn forget to monitor their maintenance.
A presente patente de invenção é a solução para este problema. Um dispositivo que torna a correia "inteligente", porque avisa ao condutor do veículo a eminência do seu rompimento. Trata-se de uma faixa estreita disposta ao lado da correia, com o mesmo perfil desta, confeccionada em material 20% mais fraco do que o material original da correia, para romper antes da correia e ativar um sensor que aciona o pisca alerta disposto no painel do veículo.
.Desta forma o condutor tem tempo para parar em uma oficina e trocar a correia evitando transtornos e gastos com o veículo, uma vez que acionando o pisca alerta o condutor saberá que se aproxima a hora de trocar a mesma por causa da quilometragem rodada ou algum problema no motor que sobrecarregue o funcionamento da correia. The present patent is the solution to this problem. A device that makes the belt "smart" because it warns the driver of the vehicle that it is breaking. This is a narrow strip arranged at the side of the belt, with the same profile as the belt, made of material 20% weaker than the original belt material, to break before the belt and activate a sensor that triggers the alert flashing provided in the vehicle dashboard. In this way the driver has time to stop in a workshop and change the belt avoiding inconvenience and expense with the vehicle, since turning on the flashes alerts the driver will know that the time to change it is approaching because of the mileage round or some engine problem that overloads belt operation.
