Abstract
The invention relates to a reciprocating piston engine with at least one cylinder whose cylinder liner (2) is provided with at least one groove-shaped oil pocket (8) in the area of the running surface (4) of said liner (2), whereby the running surface (4) is assigned to the piston (6). The oil pocket (8) is laterally defined by material areas which are provided with an enhanced resistance to wear capacity when compared with the base material of the cylinder liner (2) outside thereof. In order to obtain higher operational reliability, the material areas which respectively and laterally define one oil pocket (8) are configured as a filling (11) for a groove (10) whose depth (d) corresponds at least to the maximum wear and tear thickness of the cylinder liner (2).
Description
Reciprocating piston engine The invention relates to a reciprocating
piston engine, in particular a two-stroke large diesel engine, having at least one cylinder whose cylinder liner, in the region of its running surface facing the piston, contains areas of material having a greater wear resistance than the base material of the cylinder liner for the lateral delimitation of at least one groove shaped oil pocket.
A reciprocating piston internal combustion engine of this type is known from JP 6-105102 B2. In this known arrangement the cylinder liner is provided with a wave contour for forming groove-shaped oil pockets on the running surface side, the elevated places in this wave contour being hardened by a hardening process. To improve the run-in properties the hardened places can be provided with an MOS2 coating which disappears quickly, however. Producing a wave contour and carrying out a hardening process limited locally to the raised areas are relatively expensive procedures.
There is also the fact that, from experience, the hardening depth which can be achieved by the hardening process is relatively small. In addition, the degrees of hardness that can be achieved merely by a hardening process are also limited. In the known arrangement, therefore, only a relatively short service life is achieved for the wave contour. There is a further disadvantage in that the hardening limited 'locally to the raised areas may also lead to undesirable distortion and undesirable changes in structure in the adjacent material areas. Accordingly, the known arrangement has not proved to be simple enough or to have a sufficiently long service life.
2- With this as a starting point, it is therefore the aim of the present invention to improve a reciprocating piston engine of the above type with simple and inexpensive means so that a long service life of the cylinder liner can be achieved.
This aim is achieved in accordance with the invention in that the material areas each provided with an oil pocket for lateral delimitation are configured as a filling for a groove, the depth of which corresponds at least to the maximum wear thickness of the cylinder liner.
These steps advantageously make possible the free selection of material as regards the filling for the grooves and hence the oil pocket delimitations. A material which is different from the base material and is better suited to any requirements that occur than the hardened base material can therefore be used. The depth of the grooves may f ar exceed the depth of hardness which can be achieved during a hardening process. During production there is first of all a smooth surface which can be processed, preferably honed, relatively easily. Because the base material has a lower resistance to wear and tear, it wears faster in the area between the groove fillings made of foreign material, and hence the desired oil pockets are automatically produced. These remain until the cylinder liner is completely worn. Using the steps of the invention, therefore, the disadvantage: of the known arrangement that are set out above are completely avoided.
Preferred constructions and suitable developments of the principal steps can be found in the sub-claims.
Thus the filling may preferably comprise an at least partially ceramic material, preferably a ceramic-metal mixture (Cermet). This gives a particularly good stability. Furthermore, materials of the above type are applied in an extremely simple manner, for instance by the high speed plasma spraying process or by the laser coating process.
A further possible preferred provision is that the depth of the grooves each laterally defining an oil pocket is greater than the maximum wear and tear thickness of the cylinder liner. This ensures that the groove fillings are well secured in the base material until the cylinder liner is completely worn. It may also be conducive to this if the cross-section of the groove increases inwardly.
Further preferred constructions and suitable developments of the principal steps can be found in the other sub-claims and can be seen in greater detail in the following description of an example by means of the drawings.
The drawings described below show:
Figure 1 a partial section of a cylinder of a two stroke large diesel engine, Figure 2 an enlarged section of the area provided with oil pockets in the arrangement according to Figure 1 and Figure 3 an enlarged section through a groove provided with a filling in the arrangement according to Figure 1.
The present invention is used in reciprocating piston engines, in particular internal combustion reciprocating piston engines, preferably in the form of slowly-running two-stroke large diesel engines. The structure and method of operation of such arrangements are known Cper se and therefore. need no further explanation in the present connection.
The cylinder of a two-stroke large diesel engine shown in Figure I contains a cylinder liner 2 provided with inlet slots 1, onto which is placed a cylinder head 3 containing an outlet arrangement not shown in detail here. The inside of the cylinder liner 2 is formed as a running surface 4, and co-operating with it is a backwards- and forwards-moving piston 6 provided with piston rings 5 on the circumferential side. The running surface 4 is supplied with lubricating oil by means of lubricating oil supply lines 7.
To achieve a good distribution of the lubricating oil, and in particular a good supply of lubricating oil to areas in which it is known from experience that the lubricating oil supply is insufficient, for instance in the upper region of the running surface 4, oil pockets 8 which are suitable for this purpose are provided in this area but indicated only in Figure 1. The depressions forming the oil pockets 8 are not present f rom the start. However, provisions are made at the start which, in the course of operation, cause the automatic formation of depressions forming the basis of the oil pockets 8 by wear and tear of the base material of the cylinder liner 2.
The oil pockets 8 are each laterally defined by material areas 9 flanking them. An oil pocket 8 can be formed between two respective material areas 9 of this type. As can be seen f rom Figures 2 and 3, the material areas 9 each laterally defining an oil pocket 8 are conf igured as a filling 11 for a respectively associated groove 10. The material forming the filling 11 has a greater resistance to wear than the base material of the cylinder liner 2 which is generally made of cast steel. As is indicated in Figure 3, in the new state the grooves 10 are f illed to the level of the running surface 4, producing a smooth surface which can be easily processed, for instance honed. First of all the grooves 10 are cut in. Then the filling 11 is introduced. Finally the running surface 4 is finished.
Because of the greater wear resistance of the material forming the filling 11 with respect to the base material of the cylinder liner 2, the wear of the base material is already greater during the run-in phase than the wear of the fillings 11, as shown in broken lines in Figure 3. This therefore means that the respectively desired groove-shaped oil pocket 8 is produced between two adjacent fillings 11.
A material which is completely or at least partially made of ceramic material, e.g. a ceramic metal mixture (Cermet) may preferably be used to form the filling 11.
This material may preferably contain carbides and/or oxides and/or nitrides and/or borides and/or silicates with Cu and/or Al-bronze and/or Ni and/or NiCr and/or Mo and/or Al graphites and/or Ni-graphite and/or Al-Br-graphites and an organic binder, whereby the carbides, oxides, nitrides, borides, silicates are preferably present with 10-60% in the hard phase and 5-80% in the soft phase. It has proved to be particularly advantageous if the carbides, oxides, nitrides, borldes, silicates are present as Cr-compounds. CrO is a particularly useful material since it not only has good stability and allows a high working temperature, but is also non-corrosive and nonoxidising.
In a preferred embodiment of the above-listed specifications, the filling (11) may contain 20-50%, preferably 20-40%, carbides and/or oxides and/or nitrides and/or borides and/or silicates, and at least Al-bronze with at least 20-40%, preferably 60-80%.
Preferred embodiments may contain 20-40t oxides mixed with 60-80% Al-bronze or 30-50% oxides, nitrides or carbides mixed with at least Al-bronze, or preferably with 10-20% Mo and 20-30% Ni or NiC or 20-40% Al bronze. Materials of this type can be applied/ introduced Into the associated groove 10 in the arc-, flame-, plasma- or high speed spraying process.
Another material group which contains silicon and boron with a content of respectively 0.1-10% can also be applied in the above manner. Preferred material compositions in this connection are 10-18% Cr, 2-3% Fe, 2-4% Si, 2-4% B, 0.1-0.5% C and N! as the remainder, or 10-18% Cr, 2-3% Fe, 2-4% Si, 2-4% B, 0.1-0.5% C, 6-12% Mo, 0.1-0.5% C, 30-40% Co and Ni as the remainder, or 10-18% Cr, 2-3% 1, 2-4% Si, 2-4% B, 0.1 0.5% C, 6-12t Mo, 1-6% Cu, 0.1-0.5% C and Ni as the remainder or 10-18% Cr, 2-3% 1, 2-4% S!, 2-4% B, 0.1-0.5% C, 6-12% Mo, 10-20% Ni, 65-88% WC and 12% Co.
Flame-, induction- or laser sintering can also be considered here.
A material containing carbides and/or oxides and/or nitrides and/or borides and/or silicates with 10-60% in the hard phase and 5-80% in the soft phase and 2-10% Cu, 20-30% Al-bronze, 10-85% Ni or NiCr, 10-30% Cr, 0.1-5% carbon, 1-8% Fe, 2-15% Mo or Mo-sulphide or Mo-disulphide or Mo-oxide or Mo-dioxide or Mo-peroxide, 2-7% Cu, 10-40% Co, 30-80% WC or 88% WC and 12t Co can also be used when the filling 11 is made as a sinter filling.
Powder materials are also suitable. So, for instance, a powder having 0.25% C, 20-50% Cr, 1-20% Mo, 1-20% V, 0.1-4t Si or B, 0.1-5t Mn, 0.1-5% Fe, 0.5-50-W carbides, oxides, nitrides, borides or silicates, Mo- sulphides /-dioxides/ -oxides/ -disulphides 10 or Mo-peroxides can be used, where silicon and/or boron with respectively 0.1-5%, and as the remainder Ni, can be provided. A particularly preferred material in this connection comprises 20-30% Cr, 1-10% Mo, 2-3t C, 2-5% V, 0.2-1% Mn, 0.2-4% Si or B and Ni as the 15 remainder. Alternatively, however, the filling 11 can also be formed as a welded coating. A material can be used which contains 2-20% Al, 0.5-10% Fe, 0.1-8% Mn, 0.1-2% 20 Si, 0.1-10% Ni, 0.1-2% C and at least one of the components Sb, Co, Be, Cr, Sn, Cd, Zn, Pb with 50-20% at the most and the remainder Cu. A particularly preferred composition may contain 14-17% Al, 3-5% Fe, 1-3% Mn, 0.1-2% Si, 0.3% C at the most and the 25 remainder Cu. The depth of the groove 10 indicated in Figure 3 at d corresponds at least to the maximum wear thickness of the cylinder liner 4. The depth d is preferably 30 greater than the maximum wear thickness, so that even with a completely worn cylinder liner 2, good anchoring of the filling 11 in the base material is guaranteed. In this connection it may also be advantageous if the cross-section of the groove 10 is inwardly widened, as 35 shown in Figure 2 by the cross-section shape 12 shown by broken lines. A preferred groove depth may be in the range between 0. 1 to 0. 4% of the diameter D of the running surf ace 4. The inside width of the oil pockets 8 being formed corresponds to the spacing of the associated grooves 10, each provided with a filling 11.
This distance indicated in Figure 2 at w is preferably within the range of between 1 to 2% of the diameter D of the running surface 4. The inside width of the grooves 10 and hence the width b of the fillings 11 associated with them preferably corresponds to the groove depth d. Good stability with respect to shear stress is thus achieved.
One or more oil pockets 8 can be provided. The grooves associated with them and each provided with a filling 11 are preferably arranged where, from experience, the danger of insufficient lubrication and accordingly the danger of heat corrosion etc. is particularly great. This is the case particularly in the upper region of the running surface. In Figure 1 the means provided for forming an oil pocket 8 are arranged in the region of the running surface limited by the f irst and second piston ring 5 in the upper dead centre position of the piston 6. A further oil pocket 8 or the means necessary for this can be provided in the region below the lowermost piston ring 5. In the example shown, other oil pockets 8, arranged even deeper, are also provided.
The oil pockets 8 and accordingly the material areas defining them may be of circular construction. in addition, or as an alternative to this, however, one or more oil pockets 8 extending helically, and hence helical material areas 9 defining them, can also be provided. These may extend over an area or over the entire guide length of the running surface 4.
In the case of a helically extending oil pocket 8 the pitch indicated in Figure I at p may be about 1. 5 to 201% of the diameter D of the running surf ace 4. This pitch may be constant over the entire length. However, a variable pitch would also be possible in order to obtain an oil pocket density that is greater in areas particularly at risk than in areas less at risk.
In the example shown, the groove 10 and accordingly also the f illing 11 associated with it has a rectangular or trapezoidal cross-section. The inner edges may be rounded so as to avoid notch tensions.

Amended pages Reciprocating piston engine The invention relates to a reciprocating piston engine, in particular a two-stroke large diesel engine, having at least one cylinder whose cylinder liner, in the region of its running surface facing the piston, has a greater resistance to wear than the base material of 10 the cylinder liner, and contains areas of material conf igured as a filling for at least one groove of the base material for the lateral delimitation of at least one groove-shaped oil pocket. 15 An arrangement of this type is proposed in CH-A 493 738 as an alternative to a local nitration or hardening of the base material. Bronze, white metal or hard chromium are proposed as the material used for filing the groove. The difference in hardness with respect to 20 the base material is to be about 50 HB. The proposed groove depth is to be at least 0. 02mm and theref ore is of the order of magnitude of the depth of penetration which can be achieved with nitration or hardening. A long service life for the cylinder liner cannot be 25 achieved with an arrangement of this type. With this as the starting point, it is therefore the aim of the present invention to improve a reciprocating piston engine of the above type with simple and 30 inexpensive means so that a long service life of the cylinder liner can be achieved. This aim is achieved in accordance with a first solution of the invention in that the filling (11) for 35 a groove, provided for the lateral delimitation of each oil pocket, comprises an aluminium bronze which contains 2-20% Al, 0. 5-10% Fe, 0. 1-8% Mn, 0. 1-2% Si, 0.1-10% Ni, 0.1-2% c and at least one of the components Sb, Co, Be, Cr, Sn, Cd, Zn, Pb each with at the most 5 and the remainder Cu, and has a depth corresponding at least to the maximum wear thickness of the cylinder liner.
A further solution of the invention is that the filling for the groove, provided for the lateral delimitation of respectively one oil pocket, is made at least partially of ceramic material and has a depth corresponding at least to the maximum wear thic kness of the cylinder liner.
These materials have very good resistance to wear and can be advantageously welded or applied by the plasma high speed process or laser coating process, whereby relatively deep grooves can also be reliably and easily filled, thus achieving a good service life and hence maintaining the desired effect throughout the entire service life of the cylinder liner.
Preferred designs and advantageous developments of the principal provisions are given in the sub-claims. The depth of the grooves respectively laterally defining an oil pocket may preferably be greater than the maximum wear thickness of the cylinder liner. This ensures that the groove fillings are well secured in the base material until the cylinder liner is completely worn.
It may also be conducive to this if the crdss-section of the groove increases inwardly.
Further preferred constructions and suitable developments of the principal steps can be found in the other sub-claims and can be seen in detail in the following description of an example by means of the -9 drawings.

Figure 1 a partial section of a cylinder of a two stroke large diesel engine, Figure 2 an enlarged section of the area provided with oil pockets in the arrangement according to Figure 1 and Figure 3 an enlarged section through a groove provided with a filling in the arrangement according to Figure 1.
The present invention is used in reciprocating piston engines, in particular internal combustion reciprocating piston engines, preferably in the form of slowly-running two stroke large diesel engines. The structure and method of operation of such arrangements are known Cper se and therefore no need for further explanation in the present connection.
The cylinder of a two-stroke large diesel engine shown in Figure 1 contains a cylinder liner 2 provided with inlet slots 1, onto which is placed a cylinder head 3 containing an outlet arrangement not shown in detail here.

The running surf ace 4 is supplied with lubricating oil by means of lubricating oil supply lines 7.
