Abstract
A system (1) for detecting the rotation speed of an
internal combustion engine camshaft (2), wherein a
toothed timing pulley (4), fitted to the camshaft (2),
carries integrally a sound wheel (10) facing a speed
sensor (11) for detecting a signal generated by rotation
of the sound wheel (10); according to the invention, as
opposed to being a conventional toothed wheel, the sound
wheel (10) is defined by a magnetic ring (13) made of a
magnetized polymer material and carried by a rigid
supporting ring (12) fitted integrally to the pulley (4),
so as to obtain a stronger, more accurate, "cleaner"
signal as compared with that of a conventional toothed
sound wheel.
Description
- The present invention relates to a system for detecting the rotation speed of an internal combustion engine camshaft, and to an integrated assembly usable in such a system and comprising a sound wheel and a timing pulley of an internal combustion engine.
- Devices for detecting the relative speed of two relatively rotating members are commonly used, particularly in the car industry, and comprise a so-called "sound wheel", i.e. a ring with magnetic gaps, and a sensor for detecting the magnetic variations generated by the gaps on the sound wheel traveling past the sensor. Among the more widely used, for example, are sound wheels defined by toothed metal wheels : the sensor is located at the peripheral edge of the toothed wheel, and the alternating solids (teeth) and voids (gaps between the teeth) generate a signal corresponding to the rotation speed of the sound wheel (and, hence, of the member connected to the sound wheel with respect to the sensor). Devices of this type are widely used, for example, for detecting the rotation speed of vehicle wheels (to control, for example, intervention of braking or traction control systems).
- Also known is the need, again in the car industry, to detect the rotation speed of engine camshafts, which forms the basis for various engine operation adjustments. At present, this is done using detecting devices of the type described above, featuring speed sensors and sound wheels defined by toothed metal wheels. Applying devices of this sort to an engine camshaft, however, poses several drawbacks. Firstly, to ensure a strong, accurate signal, the toothed metal wheels used as sound wheels, must be made to a high degree of precision, particularly as regards cutting the teeth, and are therefore invariably expensive. And even so, the toothed wheels traditionally used as sound wheels in this particular application are totally unsatisfactory in terms of signal strength and precision. Secondly, the best position in which to set up the detecting device is at the pulley supporting the timing belt (for connection to the drive shaft), which, as is known, must be a toothed belt to ensure precise operation of the timing system. On the other hand, the very presence of the toothed timing belt interferes with operation of the detecting device, this disturbing the signal reaching the sensor. In other words, the teeth on the belt confuse the signal generated by the toothed wheel defining the sound wheel, and so disturb the sensor reading.
- It is an object of the present invention to provide a system for detecting the rotation speed of a camshaft, designed to eliminate the aforementioned drawbacks, and which, in particular, provides for a high degree of efficiency, is unaffected by interference caused by the presence of the toothed timing belt, and at the same time is extremely straightforward and cheap to produce and assemble.
- According to the present invention, there is provided a system for detecting the rotation speed of an internal combustion engine camshaft, comprising a toothed timing pulley fittable to said camshaft; a sound wheel carried integrally by said pulley; and a speed sensor for detecting a signal generated by the rotation of said sound wheel, and fittable to a housing structure fixed with respect to said camshaft; the system being characterized in that said sound wheel comprises a substantially rigid supporting ring fitted integrally to said pulley; and a magnetic ring made of magnetized polymer material and carried by said supporting ring.
- The invention also relates to an integrated assembly comprising a toothed timing pulley of an internal combustion engine, and a sound wheel; characterized in that said sound wheel comprises a substantially rigid supporting ring fitted integrally to said pulley; and a magnetic ring made of magnetized polymer material and carried by said supporting ring.
- The invention therefore provides for a detecting system which is not only highly efficient and reliable, but also compact, cheap and easy to produce, and easy to assemble. The particular characteristics and the location of the sound wheel with respect to the timing pulley provide for obtaining a strong, highly accurate signal, far superior to that of conventional toothed wheel. Moreover, the effect on the sensor of interference generated by the toothed timing pulley and belt being located close to the sensor-sound wheel assembly is greatly reduced.
- In short, substituting sound wheels of magnetic rubber for the toothed metal wheels traditionally used in this type of application has surprisingly been found to result not only in various manufacturing advantages (lower cost, simpler processing), but also in a much more efficient signal.
- The invention therefore also extends to the use of a sound wheel comprising a magnetic ring made of magnetized polymer material and connecting means for connection to a timing pulley of an internal combustion engine to form systems for detecting the rotation speed of a camshaft of said engine.
- A non-limiting embodiment of the present invention will be described by way of example with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:
- Figure 1 shows a system for detecting the rotation speed of an internal combustion engine camshaft in accordance with the present invention;
- Figure 2 shows a larger-scale view if a detail of the Figure 1 detecting system;
- Figures 3 and 4 show graphs of output signals from two systems for detecting the rotation speed of a camshaft, one being a known system (featuring a toothed metal sound wheel), and the other a system in accordance with the present invention.
-
- With reference to Figures 1 and 2,
number 1 indicates as a whole a system for detecting the rotation speed of acamshaft 2 of a known internal combustion engine not described or shown in detail for the sake of simplicity. As is known, onelongitudinal end 3 ofcamshaft 2 is fitted with atoothed pulley 4 for a known timing belt (not shown) : as is known, in fact, correct operation of the timing system requires a toothed connection between the drive shaft and camshaft. - Pulley 4, which is substantially known, has a number of
teeth 6 on a radially outerlateral surface 5, and is housed inside acompartment 7 defined by a housing structure 8 integral with the engine and closed by acover 9. - Pulley 4 is fitted integrally with a
sound wheel 10, which cooperates with asensor 11 to generate a signal indicating the rotation speed of pulley 4 (and, hence, thecamshaft 2 to which pulley is fitted). In the example shown,sound wheel 10 comprises a substantially rigid supportingring 12 fitted integrally to pulley 4; and amagnetic ring 13 made of magnetized polymer material and fitted integrally to supportingring 12. - In the preferred, non-limiting embodiment shown in Figures 1 and 2, supporting
ring 12, made for example of shaped sheet metal, has a substantially right-S-shaped radial section, and comprises a cylindrical annular connectingportion 14 for connection topulley 4 and fitted with radial interference inside aperipheral edge 15 ofpulley 4; acylindrical collar 16 coaxial and concentric with, but offset laterally with respect to,pulley 4 and annular connectingportion 14; and a connectingportion 17 between and perpendicular to annular connectingportion 14 andcollar 16. Collar 16 is located radially outwards of annular connectingportion 14 and laterally with respect toperipheral edge 15 ofpulley 4. -
Magnetic ring 13 is connected integrally to and evenly covers a radially outerlateral surface 18 of collar 16 : for example, the polymer material from whichmagnetic ring 13 is made is bonded in known manner at the curing stage to the radially outerlateral surface 18 ofcollar 16. The polymer material from whichmagnetic ring 13 is made is also magnetized in known manner so as to generate, as it rotates, a periodic signal detectable bysensor 11. -
Magnetic ring 13 is cylindrical, is located with itscentral axis 19 coincident with the axis of rotation of pulley 4 (and therefore with the axis of camshaft 2), extends axially beyond anaxial end edge 20 ofpulley 4, and has a radially outerlateral surface 21 substantially flush with an envelope surface ofteeth 6 of pulley 4 (i.e. the tips ofteeth 6 are located at the radially outerlateral surface 21 of magnetic ring 13). - Sensor 11 (known) is housed through a wall of housing structure 8 so as to be positioned radially with respect to
magnetic ring 13, and to face, from a small predetermined radial distance, the radially outerlateral surface 21 ofmagnetic ring 13. - Pulley 4 and
sound wheel 10 therefore define, according to the invention, an integratedassembly 22 which can be preassembled easily and then fitted to the engine. - In actual use,
sound wheel 10 rotates integrally withpulley 4, and therefore withcamshaft 2; and the signal generated bymagnetic ring 13 is detected bysensor 11 with substantially no interference frompulley 4 and/or the timing belt. The advantages of the solution according to the invention, as compared with conventional sound wheels (toothed metal wheels), are shown in the Figure 3 and 4 graphs, which show the output signals detected by a known system for detecting the rotation speed of a camshaft (Figure 3), and by a system in accordance with the invention (Figure 4). In comparable conditions (same size sound wheel, same type of sensor, etc.), the signal detected by the system according to the invention is obviously more regular, substantially undisturbed, and stronger. - Clearly, changes may be made to the system as described and illustrated herein without, however, departing from the scope of the present invention as defined in the following Claims.
