INTAKE M~NIFOLD FOR INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE
HAVING EXHAUST GAS RECIRCULATION SYSTEM
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an internal combustion engine equipped with an exhaust gas recircu lation (EGR) system. More specifically, it relates to an intake manifold for such an internal combustion engine, capable of preventing the deposition of combus-tion products around the EGR gas outlet of the exhaust gas recirculation system.
INTAKE M~NIFOLD FOR INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE
HAVING EXHAUST GAS RECIRCULATION SYSTEM
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an internal combustion engine equipped with an exhaust gas recircu lation (EGR) system. More specifically, it relates to an intake manifold for such an internal combustion engine, capable of preventing the deposition of combus-tion products around the EGR gas outlet of the exhaust gas recirculation system.
2. Description of the Related Art In an ordinary internal combustion engine, unburnt hydrocarbons (abbreviated to "HC" hereinaterl leak through the clearances between the piston and the piston rings into the crankcase of the engine due to a so~called pumping action of the piston rings during reciprocating operation of the piston. The discharge of HC (generally referred to as ~'the blow-by gas") into the atmosphere causes air pollution. Therefore, it is usual to feed the blow-by gas through the cylinder head into the intake manifold, where the blow-by gas mixes with the intake air or fuel-air mixture. A system for introducing the blow by gas into the intake manifold is generally referred to as a positive crankcase ventilation system ~abbreviated to "PCV system" hereinafter).
On the other hand, in some internal combustion engines, before discharging the exhaust gas into the atmosphere, a part of the exhaust gas (EGR gas) is circulated through the intake system to reduce the concentration of nitrogen oxides (abbreviated to "NOx"
hereinafter3 in the discharged exhaust gas. In such an exhaust gas recirculation systems, especially for a Diesel engine, EGR gas contains relatively large amount of combustion products, such as carbon particles. On the other hand, in a PCV system as mentioned above, oil vapor contained in the blow-by gas is brought from the crankcase through the cylinder head and head cover into the intake manifold in which the oil flows in a mist or film-like condition. Under these circumstances, the carbon particles contained in the EGR sas are trappe~ by the oil flowing from the PCV system into the intake ` manifold and adhered to the inner surface or the intake mani~old. These particles, hereinafter referred to as "deposits", grow in the vicinity of the EGR pipe (the EGR
gas inlet of the intake manifold), thereby these deposits may block the outlet of the EGR pipe. In an engine equipped with a turbocharger, bearing lubrication oil in a turbin housing will leak to the intake manifold, so that the amount of oil flowing therein is increased, thereby the above-mentioned problems will readily arise.
Techniques have been proposed to reduce the collection of deposits around the outlet of the EGR pipe.
Such known techniques are, for example; projecting the outlet of an EGR pipe into the interior of an intake manifold (Japanese Unexamined Utility Model Publication Nos. 56-88933 and 58-116748), disposing the outlet of an EGR pipe and the outlet of the pipe of a PCV system symmetrically with respect to the center axis of -the throttle valve (Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 58-65922); providing a blow-by gas guide for guiding the blow-by gas to the downstream of the outlet of the EGR pipe (Japanese Unexamined Utility Model Publication No. 56-8893~); or projecting a blow-by gas pipe of a PCV system into the interior of an intake manifold (Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 58-33713).
SUMMARY OF T~E IN~ENTION
An object of the present invention i5 to provide an intake manifold having a simple construction for an internal combustion engine equipped with an EGR system, the interior of the manifold being provided with means for preventing the oil vapor and the like from flowing 23~
into the EGR gas outlet of the EGR pipe, thereby prevent-ing the deposition of deposits ar~und the exhaust gas outlet to secure a necessary exhaust gas recirculating rate (abbreviated to "EGR rate" hereinafter).
According to the present invention, an intake manifold for an internal combustion engine is provided eouipped with an EGR system for introducing a part of the exhaus- gas from an exhaust passage through an exhaust (EGR) gas outlet into the intake manifold~
characterized in that the exhaust (EGR) gas outlet is provided in the upper section of the interior thereof.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
The present invention will be described hereinafter ~, with reference to the preferred embodiments thereof in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. First, ~L ~295Z3S~ii re~erring to Fig. 4, indicated at 1 is an internal combustion engine; 2, an intake manifold; and 3, an exhaust manifold. The intake manifold 2 and the exhaust manifold 3 are connected to each other by means of an e~haust gas recirculation pipe 4 (abbreviated to "EGR pipe" hereinafter) and an exhaust gas recirculation valves (abbreviated to '7EGR valve" hereinafter). The valve element 5c of the EGR valve 5 is operated to open or close an inlet 5c by the mutual functions of the intake manifold pressure and the resilient force of a spring 5a. A part of exhaust gas (EGR gas) is fed through an EGR gas outlet 10 into the intake manifold 2.
The intake manifold 2 is connected to the interior of a cylinder head cover 6 by means of a positive crankcase ventilation pipe (abbreviated to "PCV pipe" herein-after) 7 which opens into the intake manifold 2 at a positlon upstream of the EGR gas outlet 10. An air cleaner 9 is connected to the intake manifold 2 by a hose 8. Such an engine includin~ EGR and PCV systems is already known in the prior art.
Figure 5 is a top plan view of the internal combus-tion engine as mounted on a vehicle; Fig. 6 is a frag-mentary enlarged view of a portion indicated by a symbol VI in Fig. 5; and Fig. 7 is a sectional view of an internal combustion engine equipped with a conven-tional intake manifold and a conventional E&R system, taken along line A-A of Fig. 6. As shown in Fig. 7 9 the EGR gas outlet 10 of the conventional EGR system known in the prior art is provided on the side wall of the intake manifold 2. Consequently, the oil vapor contained in ~he blow-by gas supplied to the intake manifold 2 by the PCV system or leaked from a turbocharger into the intake manifold 2 flows to a point downstream in the intake manifold; however, the oil cannot be separated properly from the EGR gas fed into the intake manifold 2, and hence deposits are liable to collect around the EGR gas outlet 10.
Figures lA, 2, and 3 are sectional views, each corresponding to a sectional view taken along line A-A
of Fig. 6, of the intake manifold 2, but illustrating embodiments o~~ the present invention, around the EGR gas outlet o~ the EGR systemS respectively. Similar to the EGR valve 5 of the conventional EGR svstem shown in Fig. 7, e-ch of EGR valves 5 of these embodiments is : disposed beside the side wall of the intake manifolds 2.
However, in each embodiment of the present invention, the arrangement of an EGR gas supply passage 12 extending from the EGR valve 5 to the intake manifold 2 and that of an exhaust gas outlet 10 opened to the intake mani-fold 2 are different from those in the conventional EGR system including the intake manifold shown in Fig. 7.
In an embodiment shown Figs. lA and lB, when the intake mani~old 2 is made by casting, the EGR ~as supply passage 12 is ~ormed integrally with the intake mani-fold 2 so as to extend into the interior of the intake manifold 2. That is to say, a wall 13 ~or defining the EGR gas supply passage 12 extends to the upper area of the interior space of the intake manifold 2 to form an EGR gas outlet 10 in the upper area within the intake manifold 2. Preferably, the shape of the cross-section of the EGR gas supply passage 12 is rectangular, as shown in ~ig. lB, so that a sufficient sectional area of the passage 12 is secured even if the EGR system needs to be mounted on the internal combustion engine in a narrow space. It is also preferable to form the EGR gas outlet 10 as wide as possible so that deposits collected around the EGR gas outlet 10 can be readily removed.
The upper end of the wall 13, namely, the edge of the wall 13 defining the EGR gas outlet 10, is bent to form a lip 14, as shown in Fig. lA. Preferably, the width w of the lip 14 in the transverse cross-section of the intake manifold 2 is in the range of 5 to 10 mm and the angle ~ between the wall 13 and the lip 14 is 90 or less. The preferable angle between the wall 13 and a 23~
substantially horizontal bottom wall 2a of the intake manifold 2 is also 90 or less. The wall 13 and the lip 14 thus formed cooperate to avoid oil from climbing up along the inner surface (wall 13) of the intake manifold 2.
In another embodiment of the present invention shown in Fig. 2, an EGR gas supply passage 12 is made of a pipe which is joined to an intake manifold 2 so as to extend along the side wall to the top wall of the intake manifold 2. The EGR gas outlet 10 of the EGR gas supply passage 12 is located below the inner surface 2b of the top wall of the intake manifold 2 by a small distance (5 to 10 mm) to prevent oil from flowing into the EGR gas outlet 10. A portion 2c of the side wall of the intake manifold 2, along which the EGR gas supply passage 12 extends, is concaved along the EGR gas supply passage 12 from the side wall 2d of the intake manifold 2 so as to form a step 2e therebetween. Therefore, oil flowing along the side wall 2d is stopped by the rising surface of the s-tep 2e and is prevented from flowing into the EGR gas outlet 10.
In a further embodiment shown in Fig. 3, an EGR valve 5 is contiguous at one side thereof to the side of the intake manifold 2. An ~GR gas supply passage 12 is formed by a pipe 15 of a diameter in the range of 20 to 25 mm. The pipe 15 is connected at one end thereof to the other side of the EGR valve 5. The other end of the pipe 15 is extended to the top wall of the intake manifold 2 and protruded from the inner surface 2b of the top wall into the interior of the intake manifold 2 by a small distance (5 to 10 mm)/
similar to the relation between the EGR gas passage 12 and the top wall in the embodiment of Fig. 2. Conse-quently, oil flowing along the inner wall of the intake passage 2 is prevented from flowing into the EGR gas outlet 10.
According to the present lnvention, the EGR gas ~;2;~
outlet 10 is provided in the upper part of the intake manifold 2 and the EGR gas supply passage is so con-structed as to impede the oil from flowing into the EGR gas outlet 10. Accordingly, the EGR gas introduced through the EGR gas supply passage 10 into the intake mzni.old 2 is well mixed with the intake air, and then flows together with the oil which may be contained in the blow-by gas supplied to the intake manifold 2 by the PCV system or may be leaked into the intake manir-old 2 from the turbocharger. Consequently, deposits containing carbon particles and impurities are neither produced nor deposited within the intake manifold, and hence a sufficient EGR rate is secured.
On the other hand, in some internal combustion engines, before discharging the exhaust gas into the atmosphere, a part of the exhaust gas (EGR gas) is circulated through the intake system to reduce the concentration of nitrogen oxides (abbreviated to "NOx"
hereinafter3 in the discharged exhaust gas. In such an exhaust gas recirculation systems, especially for a Diesel engine, EGR gas contains relatively large amount of combustion products, such as carbon particles. On the other hand, in a PCV system as mentioned above, oil vapor contained in the blow-by gas is brought from the crankcase through the cylinder head and head cover into the intake manifold in which the oil flows in a mist or film-like condition. Under these circumstances, the carbon particles contained in the EGR sas are trappe~ by the oil flowing from the PCV system into the intake ` manifold and adhered to the inner surface or the intake mani~old. These particles, hereinafter referred to as "deposits", grow in the vicinity of the EGR pipe (the EGR
gas inlet of the intake manifold), thereby these deposits may block the outlet of the EGR pipe. In an engine equipped with a turbocharger, bearing lubrication oil in a turbin housing will leak to the intake manifold, so that the amount of oil flowing therein is increased, thereby the above-mentioned problems will readily arise.
Techniques have been proposed to reduce the collection of deposits around the outlet of the EGR pipe.
Such known techniques are, for example; projecting the outlet of an EGR pipe into the interior of an intake manifold (Japanese Unexamined Utility Model Publication Nos. 56-88933 and 58-116748), disposing the outlet of an EGR pipe and the outlet of the pipe of a PCV system symmetrically with respect to the center axis of -the throttle valve (Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 58-65922); providing a blow-by gas guide for guiding the blow-by gas to the downstream of the outlet of the EGR pipe (Japanese Unexamined Utility Model Publication No. 56-8893~); or projecting a blow-by gas pipe of a PCV system into the interior of an intake manifold (Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 58-33713).
