Definitions
- the invention relates to an internal combustion engine with a cylinder crankcase and a V-shaped cylinder arrangement according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
- Internal combustion engines with a lubricant circuit according to the dry sump principle have a separate lubricant reservoir into which the lubricant is pumped by means of a lubricant pump from a small reservoir below the crankshaft, and from which the lubricant is conveyed to the lubrication points of the internal combustion engine.
- a lubricant circuit is described for example in the document DE 36 20 480.
- the invention has for its object to provide an internal combustion engine with a lubricant circuit according to the dry sump principle according to the preamble of claim 1, wherein the lubricant reservoir requires little space and can be produced very inexpensively.
- This object is achieved by the features in the characterizing part of patent claim 1, according to which the lubricant reservoir within the cylinder crankcase in the space between the cylinders, or the rows of cylinders of the internal combustion engine, in the so-called interior v or the so-called v-space is arranged.
- the walls of the lubricant reservoir are completely formed by the cylinder crankcase and arise directly during the casting of the cylinder crankcase.
- the lubricant circuit has at least one lubricant pump, which is arranged within the lubricant collecting container.
- At least parts of the housing of the lubricant pump are also formed by the wall of the lubricant reservoir and arise as well as the lubricant reservoir directly when casting the cylinder crankcase.
- a dry pump return pump is arranged, which is connected via at least one connecting channel with the lubricant collecting container.
- the dry pump return pump conveys lubricant from a small plenum below the crankshaft via the connecting channel in the arranged between the rows of cylinders lubricant reservoir.
- the at least one connecting channel can advantageously be formed on the wall of the cylinder crankcase and also arises during casting of the cylinder crankcase.
- the upper side of the lubricant collecting container has a removable lid.
- the removable cover is preferably bolted to the cylinder crankcase.
- the removable lid is designed as a component carrier.
- the removable cover for maintenance of the lubricant pump is formed.
- the lubricant circuit has a lubricant filter, and that the lubricant filter is connected to the removable cover.
- lubricant reservoir By arranged within the cylinder crankcase in the space between the cylinders lubricant reservoir is in the engine compartment of a
- the figure is a schematic representation of the internal combustion engine with the arranged in v-space lubricant reservoir.
- a V-shaped internal combustion engine using oil as a lubricant has a dry sump pressure oil circuit whose oil sump is disposed between the two banks of cylinders, the oil sump being integrally formed with the cylinder crankcase in casting the cylinder crankcase.
- the figure shows a cross section through such an internal combustion engine 1.
- the only hinted pressure oil circuit 6 is driven by an external gear oil pump 7, which is disposed within the oil collecting container 2, and supplies all the essential lubrication points of the internal combustion engine 1.
- the oil reservoir 2 is filled via a dry pump return pump 10, which at the bottom of the crankcase 3 at a small plenum 5 is arranged, which receives the oil flowing back from the lubrication points.
- the connection between the dry pump return pump 8 and the external gear oil pump 7 is formed by an oil line 9, which is preferably formed when casting the cylinder crankcase 4 and crankcase 3, but which can also be formed as a separate component.
- the oil collecting container 2 is covered by a removable cover by means of screws cover 8, via which the arranged in the interior of the oil collecting 2 external gear oil pump 7 can be maintained. It is provided that parts of the housing of the external gear oil pump 7 or at least receptacles for the external gear oil pump 7 are formed during casting of the cylinder crankcase 4.
- the removable cover 8 is designed as a carrier for other components of the internal combustion engine. Thus, a receptacle for an oil filter is formed on the removable cover 8.
- the cylinder crankcase described with the arranged between the cylinders oil reservoir requires a small space and caused when casting the cylinder crankcase hardly higher costs. An entrapment of the oil collection container outside the internal combustion engine is eliminated.
