Definitions
- the invention relates to a cylinder head for internal combustion engines according to the preamble of claim 1, for example known from DE 36 03 582 C1 or DE 195 02 342 A1 emerges.
- Cylinder heads for internal combustion engines are intricately shaped Components made by casting.
- the casting cores point for molding the inner surface of the gas exchange channels an inevitable scatter from workpiece to workpiece Offset from an ideal position of the core.
- the desired The target position of the inner surface of the gas exchange valves is through the position of the associated valve opening in the combustion chamber side Boundary wall of the cylinder head determined. Because of of the core offset is at the gas exchange channels in the cast Raw state in the area close to the opening for valve opening towards increasing machining allowance provided at the valve opening to the extent of at least the maximum permissible offset corresponds. This results in a cutting depth spread of about twice the offset.
- This inside Material addition is then machined in such a way that that the inner surface of the gas exchange channels are offset-free passes into the valve opening.
- the object of the invention is that of the generic type Cylinder head to improve the machining allowance on the one hand in the area of the gas exchange channels near the valve offset-free using a straight milling cutter can be processed, but still in the area the convex wall sections are more aerodynamic Surface gradient is available.
- the compensation groove can be practically without additional costs during the casting process be generated. Only the casting cores are needed for the gas exchange channels with a negative corresponding to the groove shape To be provided with a circumferential bead.
- the advantage of the invention lies in a simple, rational and inexpensive processing of the channel end with simultaneous Reduction of the spread of flow losses in the Gas exchange channels.
- double valve engines the so-called '. Tumbling - a circulation flow in the combustion chamber incoming gases with the axis of rotation lying in the longitudinal direction of the engine -
- the selected intensity of the Tumbling is in interaction with other combustion-relevant Engine parameters responsible for an orderly and desired combustion process in a certain way.
- An inadmissible strong and uncontrolled changes in tumbling interferes with the compromise chosen for a particular engine design and has a negative effect on the combustion noise and / or the exhaust gas values.
- FIG. 1 shows a section of a cast cylinder head 1 for an internal combustion engine, in which in the combustion chamber side Boundary wall 2 a circular valve opening 3 and a gas exchange duct 4 leading there - in the present case an inlet duct - is arranged.
- the illustrated embodiment of the cylinder head has two parallel behind each combustion chamber lying valve openings and a trousers branching Inlet channel, in which a separating rib 18 between the Valve openings are provided.
- the inner surface 5 of the gas exchange channels 4 is in the casting mold is inserted into the casting cores.
- These casting cores are subject to a certain position tolerance despite all care with a maximum permissible tolerance field of, for example, ⁇ 1 mm in all directions. Accordingly, the inner channel surface also faces a different one from workpiece to workpiece, offset within this tolerance range the position of the machined valve opening 3 on, which is machined as a reference contour on the cylinder head becomes.
- the gas exchange channels in the cast raw state near the opening Area with a machining allowance increasing towards the valve opening 7 provided.
- machining allowance 7 corresponds to the valve opening to the extent of at least the said maximum permissible offset, expediently about 10% more than that.
- this processing is to be carried out in a straight line Form milling cutter with an ogival contour 15 be carried out for what a simple machine tool and a form cutter with a long service life and high cutting performance can be used.
- a streamlined surface profile can be achieved, i.e. a separation-causing edge at the transition from machined Surface to cast surface is also said to be convex in the critical Area to be avoided.
- the machining allowance is according to the invention 7 a compensating groove 9 in the cast raw state the gas exchange channels provided. It runs in the circumferential direction just above the valve opening and is in cross section flat V-shaped.
- the leveling groove is - based on the direction of flow in the gas exchange channels - at least in the area 12 of a convex to rectilinear channel wall course intended.
- the compensating grooves are particularly on such cylinder heads can be used with advantage where the gas exchange channels in area close to the valve are strongly curved, i.e. their midline 14 there is curved with a radius of curvature R, which is approximately 1.0 to 2.5 times the inside diameter D of the valve opening 3 corresponds.
- R radius of curvature
- the gas exchange channels pass into the valve opening with a slight curvature, is when the end of the duct is machined from the valve opening edge forming less flow unfavorable.
- the gas exchange ducts steeply into the valve opening run in, butt the cast surface and the machined Surface at the resulting transition edge very flat, so that the flow largely follows such a surface course is able to follow free of detachments.
- the optimal location, the course, circumferential extent and cross-sectional shape the compensation groove must be checked by the designer in individual cases according to the respective, structurally given Environmental conditions of the cylinder head are developed. Independently however, the following can generally be said of this:
- the distance a of the compensating groove above the top edge the recess 20 for a valve seat ring corresponds to approximately 20 up to 30% of the clear diameter D of the valve opening.
- the compensating groove can be in a corresponding distance above the valve seat become.
- the leveling groove runs at least roughly Approximation in a plane that is approximately perpendicular to the channel center line stands. Its cross-section is like a pillow Constriction shaped.
- the groove flanks 10 run approximately pointed in the middle to the groove base 11 and are in Cross-section convex shaped and curved free of stall, i.e. the flanks of the compensation groove are in cross section a radius of curvature r or r 'of at least about 18 mm or curved longer.
- the groove base 11 lies outside of the ideal course 21 of the Inner surface, so that not only no machining allowance in this area is provided, but the real inner surface of the gas exchange channel compared to the ideal course mentioned locally excessive.
- the measured for the channel tangent 17 The depth t of the groove is - at least at the circumferential point of the greatest surface curvature in the direction of flow - about the same the maximum core offset.
- the compensating groove is designed in cross section and arranged that in an extreme position of the casting core, in the the peripheral part of the casting core with the compensating groove of the The contour is most closely approximated in the middle of the valve opening of the form cutter in the fully immersed state through the groove base runs.
- FIGS. 3 and 6 show the state of an extreme core offset shown to the left, i.e. here is the casting core with of the compensating groove 9 molding circumferential section extremely Valve opening offset. Due to a corresponding optimization of location, cross-sectional shape and course of the invention Compensating groove cuts the form cutter 15 in this Condition just the material below the opening side lower flank surface 10 'just completely gone, so that the processing surface 8 'at the location of the former groove base 11 merges tangentially into the upper groove flank 10. In this state of extreme core dislocation arise - At least at the circumferential point shown in Figure 6 on the right of the inlet duct - no steps, edges or grooves that could affect the flow near the wall 13. Despite strong ones Core misalignment and simple processing therefore runs close to the wall Flow 13 undisturbed.
