Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Entlüftungsvorrichtung in einer zu einer Saugrohranordnung einer Brennkraftmaschine hinführenden Entlüftungsleitung mit einer als Durchflußbegrenzer wirkenden Drossel, wobei die Saugrohranordnung aus einem Kunststoffbauteil mit einem eintrittsseitigen Anschlußstutzen für die Entlüftungsleitung und einem Austritt besteht, ferner mit einer in einer Durchgangsbohrung des Kunststoffbauteiles fest eingesetzten Metallhülse mit einer Befestigungsschraube, die das Kunststoffteil über die Metallhülse mit dem Zylinderkopf der Brennkraftmaschine fest verspannt.The invention relates to a ventilation device in a leading an intake manifold arrangement of an internal combustion engine Vent line with a flow limiter Throttle, the intake manifold assembly made of a plastic component with an inlet connection for the ventilation line and there is an exit, further with an in a through hole of the plastic component firmly inserted Metal sleeve with a fastening screw that holds the plastic part over the metal sleeve with the cylinder head of the internal combustion engine tight.
Derartige Entlüftungsvorrichtungen mit einer als Durchflußbegrenzer
wirkenden Drossel sind bereits in Serienfahrzeugen der
C- und E-Klasse der Anmelderin bekannt.
In diesen Fahrzeugen ist die vom Kurbelgehäuse der mehrzylindrigen
Brennkraftmaschine ausgehende Entlüftungsleitung an einer
als Kunststoffbauteil ausgebildeten Saugrohranordnung angeflanscht.
In dem außenliegenden bzw. freiliegenden Teil der
Entlüftungsleitung befindet sich zwischen Kurbelgehäuse und
Saugrohranordnung die Drossel als durchflußbestimmendes Zwischenstück. Such ventilation devices with a throttle acting as a flow restrictor are already known in series vehicles of the applicant's C and E class.
In these vehicles, the ventilation line extending from the crankcase of the multi-cylinder internal combustion engine is flanged to an intake manifold arrangement designed as a plastic component. In the outer or exposed part of the vent line, the throttle is located between the crankcase and the intake manifold arrangement as a flow-determining intermediate piece.
Bei Ausführungen dieser Art traten bei niedrigen Außentemperaturen Funktionsstörungen auf, die eine einwandfreie Kurbelgehäuseentlüftung nicht mehr sicherstellten.In versions of this type occurred at low outside temperatures Malfunctions on the proper crankcase ventilation no longer ensured.
Der Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, an einer Entlüftungsvorrichtung der gattungsgemäßen Art einfache Maßnahmen vorzusehen, durch die auch bei extrem niedrigen Außentemperaturen Funktionsbeeinträchtigungen oder gar Ausfälle der Kurbelgehäuseentlüftung vermieden werden.The invention is therefore based on the object of a ventilation device the generic type simple measures to be provided by the even at extremely low outside temperatures Functional impairments or even failures of the crankcase ventilation be avoided.
Zur Lösung der Aufgabe dienen die im kennzeichnenden Teil des
Patentanspruchs 1 angegebenen Merkmale.To solve the problem serve in the characterizing part of the
In den Unteransprüchen sind noch förderliche Weiterbildungen der Erfindung angegeben.In the subclaims there are still further training opportunities specified the invention.
Durch die Schaffung einer thermisch leitenden Verbindung mit motorbetriebswarmen Bauteilen, nämlich über eine mit dem Zylinderkopf in Kontakt stehende Metallhülse zur Wärmeeinleitung in die Drossel, wird auf einfachste Weise ein Einfrieren der als Durchflußbegrenzer wirkenden Drossel verhindert. Zusätzliche Bauteile sind somit nicht erforderlich, vielmehr wird eine an sich bekannte und seither lediglich als Abstandshalter wirkende Metallhülse als Wärmeleiter genutzt, um den drosselnden Abschnitt der Entlüftungsleitung gegen tiefe Außentemperaturen unempfindlich zu machen.By creating a thermally conductive connection with engine-warm components, namely one with the cylinder head in contact metal sleeve for heat introduction in the throttle, is considered to be the easiest way to freeze the Flow restrictor acting throttle prevented. Additional Components are therefore not necessary, rather one is on known and since then acting only as a spacer Metal sleeve used as a heat conductor to the throttling section the vent line against low outside temperatures make insensitive.
Eine vorteilhafte Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ergibt sich dadurch, daß die Drossel als Leitungszwischenstück in die Metallhülse integriert ist. Somit wird bei tiefen Außentemperaturen und kaltem Motor ein schneller Temperaturanstieg bzw. eine rasche Aufheizung im Motorbetrieb ermöglicht. An advantageous embodiment of the invention results from that the throttle as a line adapter in the metal sleeve is integrated. Thus, at low outside temperatures and cold engine a rapid rise in temperature or a rapid Heating in engine operation enabled.
