Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain high output throughout the whole range of engine revolutions with a compact structure by connecting a second resonance chamber via an opening and closing valve, to a valley part between an intake passage and a resonance passage which is connected to a resonance chamber while being branched from the intake passage. CONSTITUTION:A resonance passage 30 is arranged above a connection part between a branch intake passage 9 extended from a surge tank 7 and right and left branch passages 9a, 9b which are connected to right and left cylinders 1. The resonance passage 30 is extended to an upper oblique part which is opposed to the branch intake passage 9 and connected to a resonance chamber 31. By this constitution, a second resonance chamber 34 is arranged at a V-shaped valley part 33 which is formed between the branch intake passage 9 and the resonance passage 30. The second resonance chamber 34 is connected to the resonance passage 30 through a port 35 to which an opening and closing valve 36 is set. Consequently, two resonance chambers 31, 34 are set in a compact style, and high output is obtained throughout the whole range of engine revolutions.

In the intake system of an engine, intake pulsations occur in the intake passage as the intake valve opens and closes. The frequency of this intake pulsation is considered to be determined by factors such as the shape and length of the intake passage. A technology called resonant supercharging that uses this intake pulsation to design the intake passage so that positive pressure is generated near the intake valve when the intake valve opens within a specific rotation speed range, thereby increasing intake air filling efficiency. It has been known. Furthermore, in order to be able to set a plurality of rotation speed regions in which this intake resonance occurs, it has also been proposed to provide a resonance chamber and connect this resonance chamber to the intake passage via a resonance passage having an on-off valve. In this type of intake system, the rotation speed range in which intake resonance occurs changes by operating the on-off valve, so by controlling this on-off valve according to the engine speed, for example, it is possible to achieve high output over a wide engine speed range. It becomes possible to obtain.

FIG. 3 shows the output torque curve of the engine in this embodiment. When the on-off valve 32 is closed by the actuator 38, the volume of the intake system is minimized, and the output torque of the engine peaks at a relatively low rotational speed region, as shown by a in FIG. 3. When the on-off valve 32 is open and the on-off valve 36 is closed, the output torque of the engine peaks in a slightly high rotational speed region, as shown by b in FIG. 3. Furthermore, when both the on-off valves 32 and 36 are open, the output torque of the engine peaks in the highest rotational speed region, as shown by C in FIG. In this way, it is possible to obtain high output over a wide range of engine speeds. Note that when the second resonance chamber 34 is connected to the branch intake passage 9, a state in which only this second resonance chamber is connected to the branch intake passage 9 is also possible.
