OIL CONTROL VALVE ASSEMBLY FOR ENGINE CAM SWITCHING
CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS [0001] This application claims the benefit of United States Provisional Application No. 61/147,543, filed January 27, 2009, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0002] The invention relates to an oil control valve assembly having an exhaust port operatively connected to a drip rail in an engine.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0003] Hydraulic control systems for engines are used to control oil under pressure that may be used to switch latch pins in switching lifters, lash adjusters, and rocker arms for cam switching. Valve lifters are engine components that control the opening and closing of exhaust and intake valves in an engine. Rocker arms are used to change the lift profile of camshafts. Lash adjusters may also be used to deactivate or vary exhaust and intake valves in an engine. By varying valve lift, fuel efficiency of an engine may be improved. Camshafts and other rotating, sliding or otherwise movable components within the engine require lubrication. In some engines, fluid is pumped to a drip rail positioned above the components to provide the necessary lubrication.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
[0004] An oil control valve assembly for an engine is provided that has a control valve with a valve body which defines both a control passage in fluid communication with a valve lift switching component, such as a switching rocker arm or switching lash adjuster, and an exhaust passage for exhausting fluid from the valve. The control valve is controllable to selectively direct fluid from a supply source to the control passage to actuate the valve lift switching component. An elongated tubular member, such as a drip rail, is positioned adjacent the engine component and is operatively connected to the exhaust passage such that fluid flows from the exhaust passage to the
elongated tubular member and through the elongated tubular member onto the engine component. In this manner, oil flow need not be separately directed to the elongated tubular member from the supply source. Oil flow requirements are reduced, thus saving energy.
[0005] The oil control valve assembly may include a pressure relief valve in fluid communication with the exhaust passage that is configured to open when pressure in the exhaust passage reaches a predetermined pressure that is less than a minimum pressure required to actuate the valve lift switching component. The pressure relief valve thus helps to maintain a residual pressure to the valve lift switching component. This prevents air from entering the passages or reaching the valve lift switching components, which would disrupt actuation timing. Maintaining a residual pressure also decreases the time required to raise the pressure level to the minimum pressure required for actuation, thus decreasing actuation response time. The pressure relief valve may be between the exhaust passage and the elongated tubular member, in which case, fluid drips from the elongated tubular member by gravity only. Alternatively, the elongated tubular member may be between the exhaust passage and the pressure relief valve such that fluid within the elongated tubular member is pressurized up to the predetermined pressure at which the relief valve opens. A pressurized elongated tubular member ensures lubrication of the engine components even at low temperatures. Other means of dispensing pressurized oil to lubricate the engine components, such as through squirters in the rocker arms are unnecessary. [0006] A pressure regulator valve upstream of the control valve may also be provided. The pressure regulator valve is configured to regulate fluid pressure provided to the supply passage and the bypass passage from the supply source. Supply pressure is thus stabilized, making response times more consistent over a variety of temperature and pressure fluctuations in the fluid provided from the supply source. For example, interference caused by fluid demand of other hydraulic valves and components is reduced. Because the maximum pressure is controlled, the apertures in the elongated tubular member can be larger. This is especially beneficial if fluid in the elongated tubular member is not pressurized, as adequate fluid flow through the apertures at low temperatures requires sufficiently large apertures. [0007] The above features and advantages and other features and advantages of the present invention are readily apparent from the following detailed description of
the best modes for carrying out the invention when taken in connection with the accompanying drawings.

[0009] FIGURE 2 is a schematic cross-sectional illustration of one embodiment of an oil control valve, pressure relief valve and drip rail for the hydraulic control system of Figure 1;
[0010] FIGURE 3 is a schematic cross-sectional illustration of another embodiment of an oil control valve, pressure relief valve and drip rail for the hydraulic control system of Figure 1; and
[0011] FIGURE 4 is a schematic cross-sectional illustration of a pressure regulator valve for the hydraulic control system of Figure 1.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS [0012] Referring to the drawings, wherein like reference numbers refer to like components throughout the several views, Figure 1 shows a portion of an engine 10 including a hydraulic control system 12 that controls hydraulic fluid flow to engine valve lift switching components such as rocker arms 14 and lash adjusters 16, and directs fluid flow from an exhaust passage 18 of an oil control valve 20 to drip rails 22 that lubricate other engine components as explained herein. [0013] The hydraulic control system 12 shown in Figure 1 illustrates control of hydraulic fluid to two oil control valves 20, each affecting fluid flow to a different drip rail 22, rocker arm 14 and lash adjuster 16. The drip rails 22 are also referred to herein as elongated tubular members. The number of control valves 20, and the number of rocker arms 14 and lash adjusters 16 affected by each control valve 20 depends in part on the timing requirements of the engine 12, and may be different than that shown in the exemplary embodiment of Figure 1. The control valves 20 are part of an oil control valve assembly 24 that also includes a pressure regulator valve 26 and pressure relief valves 28, the function and operation of which are described below.
[0014] The engine 10 has an oil sump 30 containing hydraulic fluid, also referred to herein as oil, that is pressurized and directed through a feed passage 32 by a pump 34. Some of the oil in the feed passage 32 is used by cam phaser valves 36 that adjust and retard cam timing based on factors such as engine speed and load. Because the cam phasers 36 intermittently draw fluid from the feed passage 32, pressure in the feed passage 32 varies. In order to regulate fluid pressure flowing to the oil control valves 20 and avoid extreme fluctuations, the pressure regulator valve 26 moderates pressure supplied from the feed passage 32 through the regulator valve 26 to supply passage 40, which feeds into both of the control valves 20. The pressure regulator valve 26 is shown and described in further detail with respect to Figure 4, below. [0015] Flow through the bypass passage 42 must pass through a restriction 44 (also referred to as a first orifice) dropping the pressure and limiting flow. This, in combination with the regulated pressure, causes a consistent flow rate to the drip rail 22. In the embodiment shown, which is described further with respect to Figure 2, a pressure relief valve 28 is positioned between the bypass passage 42 and the drip rail 22. The pressure relief valve 28 permits fluid flow to the drip rail 22 when a sufficient pressure is reached in the bypass passage 42 that will improve actuation speed of the rocker arm 14 and lash adjuster 16, but that is not high enough to cause actuation of the rocker arm 14 and lash adjuster 16. Due to the restriction 44 and deliberate sizing of the passages 40, 42, fluid pressure provided to the supply passage 40 is greater than fluid pressure in the bypass passage 42 downstream of the restriction 44.
[0016] The oil control valve 20 also has a control passage 46 in fluid communication with the rocker arm 14 and lash adjuster 16. In Figure 1, a valve member 48 of the oil control valve 20 is shown in a position that blocks fluid communication from the supply passage 40 to the control passage 46 so that the rocker arm 14 and lash adjuster 16 are not actuated by the higher fluid pressure in the supply passage 40. Instead, fluid pressure allowed by the relief valve 28 is communicated through passage 42, the control valve 20 and the passage 46 to the rocker arm 14 and lash adjuster 16. Control of the oil control valve 20 and fluid flow to the drip rail 22 is described in greater detail with respect to the embodiments of oil control valve assemblies 24 and 24A of Figures 2 and 3.
[0017] In Figure 2, a portion of the oil control valve assembly 24 of Figure 1 is shown. The oil control valve 20 is shown as a solenoid valve having an electrical coil 50 supported by a coil support portion 52 (also referred to as a bobbin) and covered by a coil cover 53 (also referred to as a can). The control valve 20 includes a manifold 56 that defines an armature chamber 58 in which a pole piece 60 is fit. Manifold 56 defines the supply passage 40, bypass passage 42, exhaust passage 18 and control passage 46. Plugs 61 close off branches within manifold 56 leading to the passages 18 and 42.
[0018] An armature 62 and the valve member 48 connected thereto are movable in the armature chamber 58 in response to energizing of the coil 50. A flux collector 64 (also referred to as a flux bracket) is supported adjacent the coil 50 and armature 62 by a-valve body 66 of the manifold 56. Electrical wiring for energizing of the coil 50 may be connected with the coil 50 through wiring openings or through an electrical connector mounted to the coil cover 53, as is known.
[0019] The pole piece 60, can 53, coil 50, armature 62 and flux collector 64 form an electromagnet. Lines of flux are created in an air gap between the pole piece 60 and the armature 48 when the coil 50 is energized by an electric source (such as a battery, not shown). The armature 62 moves in response to the flux. The coil 50 is energized under the control of an electronic controller (not shown) in response to various engine operating conditions, as is known. The armature 62 and valve member 48 are shown in a position in which the coil 50 is not energized, as is Figure 1. In this position, a first portion 68 of the armature 62 is seated on the base portion 66, while a second portion 70 of the valve member 48 is not seated. In this position, there is no fluid communication between the supply passage 40 and the control passage 46. There is fluid communication between the exhaust passage 18 and the control passage 46 through chamber 58, thus also establishing fluid communication between the bypass passage 42 and the control passage 46. The rocker arms 14 and lash adjusters 16 of Figure 1 are not actuated by the fluid provided to the control passage 46. [0020] The pressure relief valve 28 is shown installed within the manifold 56, upstream of the drip rail 22. The pressure relief valve 28 is shown closed, but will open when spring-biased ball 72 moves away from valve seat 74 at a sufficient fluid pressure in the exhaust passage 18 that is still lower than the pressure required to actuate the rocker arm 14 and lash adjuster 16. When the pressure relief valve 28
opens, fluid is supplied to drip rail 22. Drip rail 22 is connected to the manifold 56 with a connector 75 press-fit or otherwise secured within the exhaust passage 18. Fluid in the drip rail 22 will gradually drain onto engine components 80 through apertures 82 in the drip rail 22 at a rate dependent on the fluid pressure within the drip rail 22 and the size of the apertures 82. The apertures 82 are spaced according to the positions of the engine components 80, which may be cam bearings, gears, or any engine components that benefit from consistent lubrication.
[0021] The drip rail 22 is non-linear with S-shaped curves. This shape helps to keep fluid draining through the apertures 82 from spreading along the outside of the drip rail 22, and instead positions the apertures 82 at low points on the drip rail 22 to encourage fluid to drip onto the engine components 80. Preferably the drip rail 22 is located above the engine components 80. However, depending on the operating fluid pressure within the drip rail 22, fluid could dispense sideways onto engine components 80, allowing the drip rail 22 to be positioned laterally alongside the engine components 80. The drip rail 22 is upturned at a terminal portion 84. If fluid fills the drip rail 22 and rises in the terminal portion 84, it forms a fluid head that helps to maintain pressure in the drip rail 22. The fluid will spill over the open end of the terminal portion of the drip rail 22 into the engine 10 if pressure in the drip rail 22 exceeds a certain level.
[0022] Figure 3 shows an alternate embodiment of an oil control valve assembly 24A that is alike in all aspects to the oil control valve assembly 24 of Figures 1 and 2, except that a pressure relief valve 28A is repositioned to an end of a slightly modified drip rail 22 A. In Figure 3, the coil 50 is energized, causing the armature 62 and valve member 48 to lift such that the first portion 68 of armature 62 is not seated on the base portion 66 (see Figure 2), while the second portion 70 of valve member 48 is seated. Thus, fluid communication from the fluid supply passage 40 to the control passage 46 through chamber 58 is established. The pressure of fluid provided from the supply passage 40 is sufficient to actuate the rocker arms 14 and valve lifters 16. [0023] While the valve member 48 is in the position shown in Figure 3, fluid is supplied to the drip rail 22A through the exhaust passage 18 only via the bypass passage 42. Fluid drains through apertures 82A onto the engine components 80 at a rate determined by the fluid pressure within the drip rail 22 A and the size of the apertures 82A. At a predetermined fluid pressure within the drip rail 22A, the
pressure relief valve 28 A will open, draining fluid through opening 84 into the engine 10. Because the pressure relief valve 28A is at the end of the drip rail 22A opposite the exhaust passage 18, fluid in drip rail 22 A is pressurized. This helps to ensure fluid flow through the apertures 82A even at low temperatures.
[0024] Referring to Figure 4, the pressure regulator valve 26 is shown in greater detail. The pressure regulator valve 26 is integrated with oil control valve 20 via a common manifold 56. The operative valve member 85 and passages of pressure regulator valve 26 are formed at a different cross-section of manifold 56 spaced from the chamber 48. The manifold 56 forms an intake chamber 86 to which fluid flows through an open plug 83 from feed passage 32. A base portion 66A of manifold 56 forms a chamber 58 A. Fluid communication from the feed passage 32 through the intake chamber 86 and chamber 58A to branches passage 87and 88 leading to the two portions of supply passage 40 is dependent upon the position of the valve member 85 via the chamber 58A. Branch passages 87 and 88 are capped by plugs 97A, 97B. [0025] The valve member 85 is biased by spring 89 toward the open plug 83. One end of the spring 89 is held by open plug 91. When the spring 89 is in an extended position, the chamber 58A is fully open to the feed passage 32. A stationary cap 95 attached to base portion 66A limits movement of the valve member 85 toward the open plug 83. Any fluid that passes around the valve member 85 will be exhausted to the sump 30 of Figure 1 through tank port 93. A chamber 100 is formed between the valve member 85 and the cap 95. As fluid pressure delivered from the feed passage 32 and into chamber 100 increases, a net fluid force acts on the interior surface 90 of the valve member 85, moving the valve member 85 away from the open plug 83, thus restricting communication between the chamber 58A and the intake chamber 86. Fluid transmitted through branch passages 87 and 88 to supply passage 40 (a portion of which routes through restriction 44 to supply passage 42) is thus at a lower pressure. If pressure decreases in chamber 100, the valve member 85 moves toward the open plug 83, and oil flow is increased raising the pressure delivered through chamber 58A and branch passages 87 and 88 to supply passage 40 (a portion of which routes through restriction 44 to bypass passage 42) is thus at a higher pressure. In this manner, the pressure regulator valve 26 prevents extreme drops and spikes in fluid pressure to the oil control valve 20 and the drip rail 22 or 22A. By limiting the maximum pressure, the size of the apertures 82 and 82 A of drip rails 22 and 22 A can
be increased, improving flow at low temperatures, especially in the unpressurized drip rail 22. By preventing fluid pressure from falling below a minimum pressure, a consistent residual pressure is maintained at the rocker arms 14 and lash adjusters 16 when these components are not actuated, preventing air from entering the flow passages and reducing actuation time.
