Brennkraftmaschinen gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1.The invention relates to a device for exhaust gas recirculation during operation mehrzylindriger
Internal combustion engine according to the preamble of
Eine wirksame Maßnahme zur Senkung der Stickoxidemissionen bei Brennkraftmaschinen ist die Abgasrückführung. Eine Einrichtung zur Abgasrückführung geht beispielsweise aus der US 5,517,976 als bekannt hervor. Dort sind die Zylinder einer aufgeladenen Brennkraftmaschine in zwei Gruppen aufgeteilt, wobei das Abgas der einen Gruppe, vorzugsweise eines Zylinders, über eine Abgasrückführleitung der Ansaugleitung der Brennkraftmaschine zugeführt wird. Das Abgas der anderen Zylindergruppe wird in einer Abgassammelleitung gesammelt und der Turbine eines Abgasturboladers zugeleitet. Die Abgasrückführteitung und die Abgassammelleitung sind über eine Verbindungsleitung und eine Ventileinrichtung miteinander verbunden, die einen Strömungsquerschnitt der Verbindungsleitung steuert.An effective measure to reduce nitrogen oxide emissions in internal combustion engines is the exhaust gas recirculation. A device for exhaust gas recirculation goes out, for example of US 5,517,976 as known. There the cylinders are a charged one Internal combustion engine divided into two groups, the exhaust gas of a group, Preferably, a cylinder, via an exhaust gas recirculation line of the suction line of Internal combustion engine is supplied. The exhaust gas of the other cylinder group is in a Collected exhaust manifold and fed to the turbine of an exhaust gas turbocharger. The Exhaust gas recirculation and the exhaust manifold are via a connecting line and a valve device connected to each other, which has a flow cross-section of the Connection line controls.
Eine analoge Einrichtung ist auch in der DE 39 30 243 A1 dargestellt, wo ein 3/2-Wegeventil dazu dient, eine Abschaltung der Abgasrückführung bei kalter Brennkraftmaschine und niedriger Last vorzunehmen. Bei abgeschalteter Abgasrückführung gelangt das Abgas eines mit der Abgasrückführleitung verbundenen Zylinders in die an die übrigen Zylinder angeschlossene Abgassammelleitung. Problematisch an einer derartigen Einrichtung, die eine Unterteilung der Zylinder in zwei Gruppen vornimmt, von denen eine Gruppe für die Abgasrückführung vorgesehen ist, ist die Notwendigkeit einer Anordnung einer Ventileinrichtung im Bereich der Abgassammelleitung, wo die Einbauverhältnisse sehr beengt sind. Wenn die Abgassammelleitung gekühlt ist, ist außerdem die Durchführung der Antriebswelle durch den Wassermantel hindurch nur mit hohem konstruktiven Aufwand zu lösen.An analog device is also shown in DE 39 30 243 A1, where a 3/2-way valve serves to shut off the exhaust gas recirculation in cold Internal combustion engine and low load. When switched off Exhaust gas recirculation reaches the exhaust gas of a connected to the exhaust gas recirculation line Cylinder in the connected to the other cylinder exhaust manifold. The problem with such a device, the division of the cylinder in two Groups is, of which a group is provided for exhaust gas recirculation, is the need for an arrangement of a valve device in the field of Exhaust manifold, where the installation conditions are very cramped. If the Is exhaust manifold is cooled, is also the implementation of the drive shaft through to solve the water jacket only with great design effort.
Aus der US 4,249,382 geht eine weitere Einrichtung als bekannt hervor, die eine Gruppe von Abgaszylindern zur Abgasrückführung heranzieht. Hier dient eine Ventileinrichtung mit zwei Ventilen zur Steuerung der Abgasströme. In einer Ausführung wird ein Rückschlagventil verwendet, um den Eintritt von Verbrennungsluft aus der Luftzufuhrleitung in die Abgasrückführleitung zu verhindern.From US 4,249,382 a further device as known, which is a group of exhaust cylinders for exhaust gas recirculation draws. Here is a valve device with two valves for controlling the exhaust gas flows. In one embodiment, a Check valve used to prevent the entry of combustion air out of the Prevent air supply line in the exhaust gas recirculation line.
In der DE 19521573 A1 ist eine aufgeladene Brennkraftmaschine mit Abgasrückführung dargestellt, die in der Abgasrückführleitung eine Rückschlagklappe und außerdem ein Ventil zur Abschaltung der Abgasrückführung enthält. Das rückgeführte Abgas wird einer Abgassammelleitung entnommen, an die alle Zylinder der Brennkraftmaschine angeschlossen sind. Nachteil dieser Ausführung ist, dass die Abgaszusammensetzung des rückgeführten Abgases nicht optimal eingestellt werden kann, da eine zylinderindividuelle Regelung zur Beeinflussung der Abgasqualität des rückgeführten Abgases nicht möglich ist.In DE 19521573 A1 is a supercharged internal combustion engine with exhaust gas recirculation represented in the exhaust gas recirculation line, a check valve and also a Contains valve for switching off exhaust gas recirculation. The recirculated exhaust gas is a Taken off exhaust manifold, to which all cylinders of the internal combustion engine are connected. Disadvantage of this design is that the exhaust gas composition of recirculated exhaust gas can not be optimally adjusted because a cylinder-individual Control to influence the exhaust gas quality of the recirculated exhaust gas not possible is.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch die kennzeichnenden Merkmale des Anspruchs 1 gelöst. Ein
vorzugsweise als Klappe mit einer Rückstellfeder ausgebildetes Rückschlagventil teilt das
Abgassammelrohr in zwei Abschnitte. Die Integration eines Rückschlagventils ohne
Steuerung in der Abgassammelleitung bereitet auch bei begrenzten Platzverhältnissen
keine konstruktiven Probleme. Die Steuerung der zurückgeführten Abgasströme wird
durch ein steuerbares Ventil in der Abgasrückführleitung vorgenommen. Die Anordnung
eines steuerbaren Ventils samt Antriebswelle und Stellmotor in der Abgasrückführleitung
bereitet dort aufgrund der dort zur Verfügung stehenden Platzverhältnisse keinerlei
Probleme. Auf diese Weise wird eine hinsichtlich konstruktivem Aufwand und Kosten
günstige Lösung erreicht.This object is solved by the characterizing features of
Die Erfindung wird anhand eines dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiels näher erläutert. Es zeigen:

- Figur 2a
- einen Abschnitt der Abgasleitung, in dem eine mit zwei Klappen ausgebildete Ventileinrichtung in Stellung bei Abgasrückführung dargestellt ist;

Figur 1 zeigt ein Systemschaubild einer Brennkraftmaschine 1 mit dem Leitungssystem für
Verbrennungsluft und Abgas. Die Verbrennungsluft wird den Zylindern 2,3 der
Brennkraftmaschine 1 über eine Ansaugleitung 4 zugeführt, die den Verdichter eines
Abgasturboladers enthält. Das Abgas der Zylinder 2,3 wird in einer Abgassammelleitung 5
aufgenommen, die die Turbine 6 des Abgasturboladers beinhaltet. Die
Abgassammelleitung 5 besitzt im weiteren einen Anschluss an eine Abgasrückführleitung
7, die mit der Ansaugleitung 4 verbunden ist. Zur Kühlung der Luft- und Abgasströme
können Wärmetauscher 8,9 vorgesehen sein. Die Abgasrückführung wird durch Ventile 10
und 11 gesteuert, die in der Abgassammelleitung 5 und in der Abgasrückführleitung 7
angeordnet sind. Das als Rückschlagventil ausgebildete Ventil 10, das in der
Abgassammelleitung 5 zwischen den Anschlüssen der Zylindergruppen 2 und 3 liegt,
separiert zwei Bereiche der Abgassammelleitung 5.FIG. 1 shows a system diagram of an
In den Figuren 2a und 2b ist das Abgasleitungssystem jeweils im Bereich der aus den
Ventilen 10 und 11 bestehenden Ventileinrichtung für die Abgasrückführung gezeigt,
wobei in der Stellung der Ventile nach Figur 2a eine Abgasrückführung des Abgases des
Zylinders 3 erfolgt und in der Stellung der Ventile nach Figur 2b die Abgasrückführung
abgestellt ist, so dass das Abgas aller Zylinder 2,3 zur Turbine 6 gelangt.In Figures 2a and 2b, the exhaust pipe system in each case in the region of the
Die Ventile 10 und 11 sind als Klappen ausgebildet. Das in der Abgasrückführleitung 7
angeordnete Ventil 11 ist in Abhängigkeit von Motorbetriebsparametern in eine geöffnete
Stellung für Abgasrückführung (Figur 2a) und eine geschlossene Stellung (Figur 2b)
schaltbar, in der keine Abgasrückführung erfolgt. Aufgrund der Rückschlagfunktion des
Ventils 10 kommt nur das Abgas des Zylinders 3 zur Rückführung. The
Das in der Abgassammelleitung 5 angeordnete Ventil 10 wird bei Abgasrückführung
aufgrund der sich einstellenden Druckverhältnisse und durch die Wirkung einer
Rückstellfeder 12 in geschlossener Stellung im Anschlag an einem Widerlager 13 gehalten,
wie in Figur 2a dargestellt. Die Rückstellkraft der Feder wird so gewählt, dass in
Abstimmung mit den bestehenden Druckverhältnissen die gewünschten Öffnungs- und
Schließbedingungen erfüllt werden. Ein Dämpfungselement, das an der Klappe angreift,
verhindert durch Druckstöße angeregte Flatterbewegungen. Die Richtung der
Abgasströme ist durch Pfeile 14,15 und 16 gezeigt.The arranged in the
Wenn zur Abschaltung der Abgasrückführung das Ventil 11 in geschlossene Stellung
entsprechend Figur 2b gebracht wird, öffnet das Ventil 10 aufgrund der sich in den vom
Ventil 10 separierten Bereichen der Abgassammelleitung einstellenden Druckdifferenz
selbsttätig und es entsteht ein Durchgang, über den das Abgas des Zylinders 3 in den mit
der Turbine 6 verbundenen Abschnitt der Abgassammelleitung überströmt. Das gesamte
Abgas aller Zylinder gelangt zur Turbine 6.When the exhaust gas recirculation shutdown, the
Um die rückgeführte Abgasrate zu variieren, ist es auch möglich, das Ventil 11 in der
Abgasrückführleitung 7 nur zu einem Teil zu öffnen, so dass nur ein Teil des Abgases des
Zylinders 3 (Spenderzylinder) in die Ansaugleitung zurückgeführt wird, während der andere
Teil zusammen mit dem Abgas der übrigen Zylinder 2 zur Abgasturbine gelangt. Der
Abgasdruck in der Abgasrückführleitung ist unter anderem abhängig von der Öffnung des
Ventils 11. Je größer die Öffnung des Ventils 11 ist, um so geringer ist der aufgrund des
Rückstaus bewirkte Abgasdruck in der Abgasrückführleitung, um so größer wird auch die
zurückgeführte Abgasmenge sein. Die Stellung des Ventils 10 hängt ab von der Stellung
des Ventils 11.In order to vary the recirculated exhaust gas rate, it is also possible, the
Die dargestellte Ventileinrichtung aus den Ventilen 10 und 11 zur Abgasrückführung
erlaubt im Bereich der Abgassammelleitung 7 eine konstruktiv einfache Ausführung, weil
aufgrund der Anordnung einer steuerbaren Ventileinrichtung in der Abgasrückführleitung 7
in der Abgassammelleitung 5 lediglich ein selbsttätiges Rückschlagventil genügt. Das als
federbelastete Klappe ausgebildete Rückschlagventil ist auch in engen
Einbauverhältnissen ohne aufwendige konstruktive Maßnahmen darstellbar. Im Falle einer
gekühlten Abgassammelleitung entfällt insbesondere auch die aufwendige Durchführung
der notwendigen Antriebswelle durch den Wassermantel hindurch.The valve device shown from the
Die Verwendung einer selbsttätigen Klappe in der Abgassammelleitung hat im weiteren
den Vorteil, dass sie als Sicherheitseinrichtung für den Fall dienen kann, dass das Abgas

Steuerung, bei Verschmutzung bzw. Verstopfung des Abgaskühlers oder sonstigen
Bauteilen in der Rückführleitung dennoch abströmen kann.The use of an automatic flap in the exhaust manifold has in the further
the advantage that it can serve as a safety device in the event that the exhaust gas
