Description
Die Erfindung bezieht sich nach dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruches 1 auf einen
Sammler einer Sauganlage für einen V-Motor, insbesondere V8-Motor, wobei der
den Zylinderbänken benachbart mittels Einlaßleitungen angeordnete Sammler mit
zwei Ansaugrohren ausgerüstet ist und der Sammler ferner über eine im wesentlichen
mittig angeordnete, eine Durchbrechung aufweisende Trennwand in eine
motorseitige Kammer und in eine darüberliegende motorferne Kammer unterteilt ist.The invention relates to a preamble of
Einen ähnlichen Sammler zeigt die DE-A-32 17 064.DE-A-32 17 064 shows a similar collector.
Ein Sammler mit den gattungsgemäßen Merkmalen ist beispielsweise aus der DE-A 196 05 308 bekannt. Bei diesem Sammler ist der Durchbrechung eine betriebsabhängig steuerbare Klappe zugeordnet mit dem Ziel der gesteuerten Unterteilung in etwa gleich große Teilvolumen zur Erzielung einer der vorbestimmten Zündfolge der jeweiligen V-Maschine entsprechenden Luftzuführung zu Einlaßleitungen der Zylinder in beiden Zylinderbänken. Ferner ist bei diesem vorbekannten Sammler den Ansaugrohren stromauf ihrer Anschlüsse der Frischluft betriebspunktabhängig Abgas zugeführt, wobei mit einer klappengesteuerten Unterteilung des Sammlers in zwei Kammern mit jeweils zugeführtem Abgas-Frischluftgemisch dieses aufgrund der Zündfolge richtig an den Kammern angeschlossenen Einlaßleitungen auf sämtliche Zylinder des V-Motors im wesentlich gleichmäßig verteilt ist. A collector with the generic features is for example from DE-A 196 05 308 known. With this collector, the breakthrough depends on the company controllable flap assigned with the aim of controlled subdivision approximately equal partial volumes to achieve one of the predetermined firing order of the respective V-machine corresponding air supply to the inlet lines of the Cylinder in both cylinder banks. Furthermore, this previously known collector the intake pipes upstream of their fresh air connections depending on the operating point Exhaust gas supplied, with a flap-controlled subdivision of the collector in two chambers with each supplied exhaust gas / fresh air mixture due to this the ignition sequence correctly connected to the chambers on all V-engine cylinder is distributed substantially uniformly.
Nachteilig hierbei ist, daß eine derartige Steueranordnung allein zur Vergleichmäßigung des Abgas-Frischluftgemisches bau- und kostenaufwendig ist.The disadvantage here is that such a control arrangement alone for the purpose of uniformity of the exhaust gas / fresh air mixture is complex and expensive.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen gattungsgemäßen Sammler derart zu gestalten, daß in baulich einfacher Weise eine Vergleichmäßigung des Abgas-Frischluftgemisches auf sämtliche Zylinder des V-Motors erzielt ist.The invention has for its object a generic collector in this way to design that in a structurally simple manner, an equalization of the exhaust gas / fresh air mixture is achieved on all cylinders of the V-engine.
Diese Aufgabe ist mit dem Patentanspruch 1 dadurch gelöst, daß sämtliche Einlaßleitungen
mit der motorseitigen Kammer in mediumsführender Verbindung stehen
und daß beide betriebspunktabhängig ein Abgas-Frischluftgemisch zuführenden
Ansaugrohre mit der motorfernen Kammer mediumsführend verbunden sind.This object is achieved with
Mit dem Fortfall zündfolgerichtig mit den steuerbaren Kammern verbundener Einlaßleitungen des V-Motors ist in vorteilhafter Weise ein im Aufbau einfacher Sammler erzielt.With the cessation of ignition lines correctly connected to the controllable chambers the V-engine is advantageously a collector with a simple structure achieved.
Zur Steigerung der Vergleichmäßigung des Abgas-Frischluftgemisches wird in weiterer Ausgestaltung der Erfindung vorgeschlagen, daß die Trennwand eine zentral angeordnete Durchbrechung aufweist mit einer in ihrer jeweiligen Entfernung von den Einmündungen sämtlicher Einlaßleitungen in die motomahe Absaug-Kammer abgestimmten Berandung. Mit dieser erfindungsgemäß angeordneten Berandung kann in vorteilhafter Weise eine zylinderindividuelle Verteilung gefördert werden.In order to increase the uniformity of the exhaust gas / fresh air mixture Embodiment of the invention proposed that the partition is a central arranged opening has with at their respective distance from the mouths of all inlet lines in the motomahe suction chamber coordinated boundary. With this border arranged according to the invention can be promoted cylinder-specific distribution in an advantageous manner.
Der Vergleichmäßigung förderlich ist ferner eine relativ lange Mischstrecke, wofür in weiterer Ausgestaltung vorgeschlagen wird, daß die mit der motorfernen Misch-Kammer verbundenen Ansaugrohre eine für eine erste Mischstrecke von Frischluft und stromauf der Ansaugrohr-Flansche gesteuert zugeführtem Abgas entsprechende Länge aufweisen. Mit dieser Ausgestaltung ist erreicht, daß ein relativ gut durchmischtes Abgas-Frischluftgemisch in die motorferne Kammer bzw. Misch-Kammer eintritt zur abschließenden Durchmischung. A relatively long mixing section, for which in A further embodiment proposes that the mixing chamber remote from the motor connected intake pipes for a first mixing section of fresh air and correspondingly supplied exhaust gas upstream of the intake pipe flanges Have length. With this configuration it is achieved that a relatively good mixed exhaust gas / fresh air mixture into the chamber or mixing chamber remote from the engine occurs for the final mixing.
