Definitions
- the invention relates to a motor and the elements of a variable volumetric ratio engine.
- a connecting rod of an internal combustion engine is associated on the side of its foot with the bearing of a combustion piston and the side of its head with the bearing of a crankshaft. These two levels are generally parallel axes. As shown respectively in Figures 1A and 1B, the rod has the function of transmitting the translational movement of the piston from a "top dead center” to a “bottom dead center” to the rotational movement of the crankshaft. The connecting rod also maintains the angular position of the piston along the axis of translation thereof.
- volumetric ratio of an internal combustion engine corresponds to the ratio between the volume of the combustion chamber when the piston is at its bottom dead point; and the volume of the combustion chamber when the piston is at its top dead center. All else being equal, the choice of the length of the connecting rod determines the volumetric ratio of the engine.
- volumetric ratio of an engine greatly improves the energy efficiency of the engine. For example, it is sometimes desired to vary the volumetric ratio between about a value of 12 in the absence of load to a value of about 8 at full load.
- a complete engine cycle consists of a fresh gas intake cycle, followed by a compression cycle, a combustion-expansion cycle, and finally a exhaust cycle. These cycles are of substantially equal extent, distributed over 720 ° rotation of the crankshaft.
- the engine load is then defined as the fictitious constant pressure exerted on the piston crown during the combustion-expansion part of a cycle (the pressure exerted on the piston crown during the complementary part of the cycle being considered as zero) leading to obtain a power equivalent to that developed by the engine during a complete cycle.
- This pressure is at most of the order of 10 bar for an ordinary atmospheric engine, and can commonly rise to values of 20 to 30 bar for a supercharged engine.
- the displacement corresponds to the volume generated by the sliding of the piston in the engine cylinder between a top dead center and a bottom dead center.
- a variable displacement is obtained by varying the stroke of the piston in the cylinder.
- the displacement is not affected by the choice of the length of the connecting rod.

- the rod acts as a shock absorber, compressing and expanding according to the instantaneous value of the forces that develop during a motor cycle.
- this document discloses a constant displacement with the load during the intake cycle, while the displacement is increased during the combustion cycle when the load increases.
- the hydraulic chamber of the solution presented in this document is particularly sensitive to the change in temperature of the hydraulic fluid, which, combined with the sensitivity to the engine speed, makes the behavior of the rod particularly unpredictable.
- the document R0111863 describes an internal combustion engine consisting of a movable upper block and a lower block fixed vis-à-vis the chassis of a vehicle.
- the upper block is free to pivot along a lateral axis linking the upper block to the lower block.

- the calibrated conduit (s) 6 is configured to promote a turbulent flow.
- a turbulent flow is favored by decreasing the ratio of the length of the duct to its diameter and penalizing the entry of the hydraulic fluid into the duct so as to create a violent transition between the chamber and this duct (by For example, converging type cones are not formed between chambers 4, 5 and conduit 6).
- the rod cylinder 2 and / or the piston 3 are provided with sealing means preventing the flow of hydraulic fluid from a chamber 4, 5 to the other outside the (or) calibrated duct 6 provided (or avoiding the flow of hydraulic fluid out of the chambers 4, 5 in the alternative configuration of the device 1).

- the characteristics of the mechanical means of reminders (stiffness, preload, etc.) and the calibrated conduit (s) (number, diameter, length, nature of the flow, etc.) are chosen for the connecting rod forms or exhibits the behavior of a highly damped oscillating system. It is recalled that a highly damped oscillating system is an oscillating system having a damping factor greater than 1.
- the piston 3 (or the pistons 3a, 3b) is in the nominal position, the mechanical means of call-backs 7 leading to placing the piston 3 / cylinder 2 assembly in the mechanical stop position.
- the engine thus has at startup a volumetric ratio defined by the nominal position of the piston 3 (or pistons 3a, 3b).
- the mechanical return means 7 comprise a spring, for example a compression spring, arranged to exert a force tending to reposition the piston 3 (or the pistons 3a, 3b) in nominal position.
- the spring can be placed in the high pressure hydraulic chamber 4, or arranged on the device 1 outside of this chamber 4.
- the spring may have a stiffness which leads to applying an increasing return force with the contraction of the device 1.
- the return forces are provided only by the spring and outside the effects of stops or transient effects
- the length or position of the device 1 is essentially stabilized around a length or position of equilibrium, even if oscillations of small amplitudes can occur.
- the hydraulic fluid tends to be transferred through the calibrated duct 6 of the low pressure chamber 5 to the high pressure chamber 4, and the piston 3 (or the pistons 3a, 3b) tends to return to its position. mechanical stop corresponding to a nominal position.
- the volumetric ratio of the engine is adjusted accordingly.
- the stiffness of the spring is chosen to grant the maximum movement of the piston 3 (or pistons 3a, 3b), between its two stops, for a selected range of loads.
- the spring may be pre-loaded, that is to say that when the device 1 is in the nominal position, at rest, the spring applies a non-zero threshold return force.
- the position of the piston 3 remains fixed at its nominal position.
- part of the threshold return force can be provided by the hydraulic part of the device 1. In this case, the part of the threshold return force provided by the spring can be reduced, and the size of the spring can be reduced as well.
- the spring is pre-loaded to a non-zero threshold return force and its stiffness is chosen relatively low, so that, for example, the variation of the return force of one stop to the other does not exceed 70% of the pre-load effort.
- the device 1 in a first configuration, the device 1 is disposed in a first nominal position as long as the average applied combustion force remains below the threshold return force;
- the device 1 is disposed in a second minimum position when the average applied combustion force is greater than the threshold return force.
- This mode of implementation is particularly suitable for the realization of a device 1 simple and inexpensive for the implementation of a variable volumetric ratio autonomous "bi-rate".
- the engine has a first volumetric ratio imposed by the nominal position of the device in its first configuration, for a low load; and a second volumetric ratio imposed by its minimum position in its second configuration, for a load exceeding a threshold load.
- the cylinder 2 and the piston 3 may have a circular section, or a non-circular section, such as an oval section, which prevents the risk of rotation along the axis longitudinal of these two bodies.
- the cylinder 2 and the piston 3 are dimensioned so as to limit the size of the device 1 and allow its placement in a combustion engine design traditional.
- the minimum dimensioning of the device 1 is limited by the pressure of the maximum hydraulic fluid that can develop in the hydraulic chambers 4, 5.
- an oval section of the cylinder 2 and the piston 3 is sometimes more appropriate, allowing accommodate the constraints of space and pressure.
- the surfaces subjected to the pressure of the hydraulic fluid side of the low pressure chamber 5 and the side of the high pressure chamber 4 are chosen sufficiently large that when the piston 3 (or the pistons 3a, 3b) is subjected to maximum effort, the pressure that develops in one or the other chamber is not excessive, for example vis-à-vis the holding of the sealing means.
- the cylinder 2 and / or the piston 3 can be provided at the level of the high pressure chamber 4 or the low pressure chamber 5 of filling means 8 of a hydraulic fluid. These filling means make it possible to maintain the chambers filled with this fluid, thus compensating for any leaks.
- It may be a duct opening, at a first end, into the cylinder 2 (or at least one cylinder 2a, 2b), and opening at its second end, at a source of hydraulic fluid .
- the first end of the duct opens into the low pressure chamber 5 which makes it possible to take advantage of the pumping effect which takes place during the application of a compressive force on the piston 3 and thus favor the filling flow of the hydraulic fluid in the cylinder 2.
- the conduit may be provided with a non-return valve preventing the flow out of the cylinder through this conduit, as shown schematically in Figures 5a and 5b.
- discharge means 9 may be constituted or comprise a simple conduit to the outside of the high pressure chamber 4 forming a constant leak, or a conduit provided with a pressure limiter for example in the form of a valve calibrated at a threshold pressure equal to the desired maximum pressure in this chamber.
- the low pressure chamber 5 and the high pressure chamber 4 have an equivalent section.
- equivalent section it is meant that the volume swept by the displacement of the piston 3 (or one of the pistons 3a, 3b) in one of the chambers 4, 5 is identical to the volume swept into the other chamber by the displacement of the piston 3 (or the other of the pistons 3a, 3b).
- the condition of "equivalent section” is fulfilled, when the high and low pressure chambers 4, 5 are defined by translation of at least one piston 3 in at least one cylinder 2, when the surfaces subjected to the pressure of each face of the piston (Or on each of the faces of the pistons 3a, 3b), projected on a plane perpendicular to the direction of movement of the piston, are essentially equal.
- the balance of the forces generated on the control member by the pressure on either side of the piston 3 (or on each of the pistons 3a, 3b ) is constant regardless of the temperature of the hydraulic fluid.
- the internal pressure of the chambers 4, 5 is particularly variable with the expansion of the hydraulic fluid as a function of the temperature (which can range from -20 ° under cold conditions to extreme temperature at 150 ° in operation in an engine).
- the variability of the internal pressure would cause a variability of the forces that apply to the piston 3 (or the pistons 3a, 3b). Consequently, the device 1 would have a behavior (position of the piston 3 as a function of the engine load) variable with the temperature, which is not generally desired.
- the device 1 tends to balance during its operation the average pressures in the high and low pressure chambers 4, 5.
- the average force generated by the pressure and acting on the piston 3 is no longer zero. This is then proportional to the difference in section between the chambers 4, 5, and is proportional to the average pressure prevailing in the chambers 4,5.
- the hydraulic fluid is strongly subjected to thermal expansion, it follows that the pressure in the chambers 4, 5 may vary during the temperature rise of the engine.
- the equivalent section conditions have the advantage of helping to maintain a substantially constant behavior (the ratio volumetric-load ratio) of the device 1 despite temperature variations.
- this condition is obtained by a double-stage piston 3.
- the cylinder 2 has a circular shoulder 3c so that the low pressure chamber 5 has a diameter greater than that of the high pressure chamber 4. This difference in diameter is compensated by the section of the rod 9 of the piston 3 in the low pressure chamber 5, so that finally the volume generated by the displacement of the piston 3 in one chamber is identical to the volume generated in the other chamber by the same displacement of the piston 3.
- this condition is obtained by a piston 3 with external emergent rod.
- the rod 9 of the piston 3 extends on either side of the piston 3 and in the volume of each of the chambers 4, 5. In this way, the condition of equivalent section is also ensured.
- this condition is obtained by an internal emergent rod piston.
- the high pressure chamber 4 has a projecting body 10 whose section is identical to that of the rod 9 of the piston 3.
- This projecting body 10 is fitted to a bore 11 formed in the piston 3, so as to be able to slide. In this way, the condition of equivalent section is also ensured.
- the device 1 can include:
- At least one calibrated conduit 6a said "traction” allowing only a flow of hydraulic fluid from the low pressure chamber 5 to the high pressure chamber 4;
- At least one calibrated duct 6b called "compression" allowing only a flow of hydraulic fluid from the high pressure chamber 4 to the low pressure chamber 5.
- Each of the ducts 6a, 6b may be provided with a valve to allow flow in a single direction. It is thus possible to adjust each of the ducts (for example in their calibres) independently of one another and to allow a differentiated dynamic of the adjustment of the device 1 according to whether a tensile or compressive force applies.
- the calibrated compression duct 6b allows a flow only when the pressure of the high pressure chamber 4 exceeds the pressure of the low pressure chamber 5 by a predetermined value. This can be easily achieved by providing the conduit 6b to a check valve ⁇ return valve to a predetermined pressure difference.
- the device 1 may have two calibrated compression ducts 6b, one being simple and allowing a calibrated flow as soon as a compressive force is applied, the other being provided with a non-return valve calibrated for allow a complementary flow as soon as a sufficient effort (inducing a sufficient pressure differential between the two chambers) compression is applied.
- the valves generally consist of a movable part (such as a ball) that can move in a direction of mobility, and cooperating with a seat and / or a spring.
- This well-known mechanism selectively opens or closes a flow passage according to the differential pressure existing between the upstream and downstream of this passage.
- the valves which are associated with the ducts 6; 6a, 6b and / or the filling means 8 and / or the discharge means 9 of the device 1 are arranged to place the mobility directions of their moving parts parallel to the foot and head of the rod.
- the moving parts are not subject in their directions of mobility to the acceleration of the device 1 (when that is integrated with a movable member of the engine, such as the rod for example) during its operation in a motor. This avoids to make dependent on the engine speed the opening or closing behavior of these valves.
- the valves have a mechanical stop of the movable part limiting their maximum opening and make it possible to control the flow rate of the flow, and to avoid the excessive biasing of the valve spring, when such a spring is present .
- the ducts can also be provided
- the determination of the configuration and calibration of the flow ducts 6a, 6b between the high pressure chamber 4 and the low pressure chamber 5 is of course related to the configuration of the engine in which the device 1 is called to operate, and to the chosen or expected performance of this engine.
- the device 1 In general, it is intended to make the operation of the device 1 (the adjustment of the position of the top dead center of the combustion piston to the load of the engine, that is to say the average tensile and compressive forces) according to the desired characteristics of the engine, for example to give the shape of the curve shown in FIG. 8.
- This may comprise an arbitration between the complexity of the flow restraint configuration (number of ducts, etc.) and its performance.
- the characteristics of the mechanical return means 7 and the calibrated conduit (s) are chosen so that the adjustment of the top dead center position of the combustion piston to the average tensile and compression forces conforms to a predetermined relationship.
- the skilled person can be helped by many common means to achieve this phase of design and / or validation. It may be in particular digital simulation and optimization means, or test benches for soliciting the device 1 in traction and compression following selected profiles to qualify its behavior.
- FIG. 8a This figure represents (in ordinate), the speed of elongation of the rod, according to (in abscissa) the amplitude of a constant effort which is applied to him. This amplitude is normalized by the maximum force applied to the connecting rod, corresponding to the peak of combustion.
- FIG. 8a three laws are represented by way of illustration, for three configurations of different rods and in accordance with the invention:
- a speed of the order of 30 mm / s ensures a system with few oscillations of the length of the connecting rod around its equilibrium position during a motor cycle, but has the effect of slowing down the variation.
- volumetric ratio when the engine load varies.
- a speed of the order of 200 mm / s allows, conversely, to have a rapid variation of the volumetric ratio when the load varies, but can cause the occurrence of oscillations of the length of rod around its position d 'balanced.
- the presence of one or a plurality of calibrated check valves makes it possible to establish a constitutive law that achieves a better compromise between the oscillations of the length of connecting rod and the reactivity of change of the volumetric ratio.
- variable volumetric ratio engine may also optionally include means for determining the effective volumetric ratio during operation. It may be for example a target (for example, a magnetic body) positioned on the combustion rod and for detecting its passage in front of a detector placed opposite in the engine or integrated in the crankcase (for example a Hall effect sensor). It may also be the known solution of DE102009013323. Thus, a system is established for determining the position of the top dead center or the bottom dead center of the combustion piston.
- a target for example, a magnetic body
- variable compression ratio engine will advantageously be provided with a device for determining the volumetric ratio, this information being useful for the control of the engine components.
- the motor or the device in which the invention is made to operate may advantageously be equipped with the necessary sensors, a computer and associated programs for this determination, and its consideration for the control of other organs of the motor. It may be by example of the known solution of the aforementioned document or the target and the detector constituting the system for determining the position of the top dead center or the bottom dead center of the combustion piston.
- Example 1 Autonomous device integrated in the connecting rod of a conventional engine.
- the autonomous device is integrated in the connecting rod of a conventional motor, as shown in FIGS. 1A and 1B and having the following characteristics:
- a connecting rod according to this first example is shown in FIG. 9.
- the foot of the rod is configured to form the cylinder 2 in which slides the piston 3 secured to the big end, via a rod 9.
- the opening of the cylinder 2 is closed by a hood 13, which can be screwed on the cylinder 2.
- the piston 3 thus defines in the cylinder 2 the high pressure chamber 4 and the low pressure chamber 5.
- the center distance between the rod is 150 mm, when it is in its nominal position, and of the order of 146 mm when in its compressed position, abutting.
- the rod has a double-stage piston formed by the shoulder 3c.
- the high-pressure chamber 4 has a diameter of 26.5 mm, which represents a "useful" surface (that is to say the surface projected on the plane perpendicular to the axis of movement of the piston) of the fluid on the piston 3 of 552 mm A 2.
- the low pressure hydraulic chamber 5 has an internal diameter of 30 mm, and the rod 9 has a circular section whose diameter is 14 mm.
- the useful surface of the fluid of this chamber on the piston 3 is 553 mm A 2, thus almost identical to that of the high pressure hydraulic chamber 4.
- the equivalent cross section condition is well respected.
- an indexing means in the form of a pin 12 is placed through an oblong opening of the cylinder 2 (whose length extends in the longitudinal direction of the connecting rod) in order to avoid the rotation of the piston 3 while allowing it to slide.
- a spring 7 is placed between the foot and the small end, so as to apply a return force to the rod.
- the spring has a stiffness of 454 N / mm; and applies a preload force of 1266 N.
- the connecting rod shown in FIG. 9 is particularly simple, and has a single calibrated duct 6 with an internal diameter of 0.44 mm to ensure the transfer of the hydraulic fluid from one chamber to the other under the effect of the tensile forces and compression exerted on the connecting rod.
- the duct 6 consists of two end segments 6i and 6i 'whose section has a diameter of the order of 4 mm and of a central segment 6j of length 1 mm and section 0.54 mm. This configuration forms a calibrated duct with precision, and it can be determined that the flow law is of "turbulent" type in the operating conditions of the engine.
- Constant stroke means that the distance between the top dead center and the bottom dead center of the combustion piston is constant to within 1%, and independent of the operating conditions of the engine (engine speed, load, etc.) when the engine is on a given operating point.
- Figure 10 shows the behavior of the rod when it is put into operation in the engine whose characteristics have been previously specified. It is observed that at low engine speed, it is possible to follow with good precision the expected behavior law. At a higher engine speed, and although the overall behavior is quite acceptable and functional, it deviates however from the desired target behavior. The formation of a second calibrated duct 6 would adjust the behavior of the rod according to the expected behavior for all ranges of engine speed. In all cases, it is deduced from the curve shown in Figure 10, the length of the connecting rod, and thus the position of the top dead center is well adjusted, constant stroke, according to the average efforts that apply to it.
