Abstract
A device for detecting the pressure in a combustion chamber of an engine is designed in such a way that the combustion-chamber pressure can be detected reliably and reproducibly. For this purpose, a glow element in a glow plug, exposed to the combustion-chamber pressure, is fixedly mounted in a housing of the glow plug via a fastening element. A sensor is fixedly mounted in the housing of the glow plug using this fastener located at a distance from the fastening element. This sensor detects the elastic deformation of the glow element caused by the combustion-chamber pressure. This device is preferably used in the automobile industry.
Description
- A device for detecting a combustion-chamber pressure in a diesel engine, having a pressure sensor and a heating section of a glow plug, is described in German Patent No. DE 196 80 912. This heating section faces an internal space of a cylinder of the diesel engine and may be exposed to the combustion-chamber pressure. The heating section is secured within a housing of the glow plug by a fastening element. The pressure sensor is situated between this fastening element and the heating section.
- In this system, the glow plug and the pressure sensor are supported by the same fastening element against the glow plug housing in such a way that the pressure sensor is affected by at least approximately the entire force acting upon the glow plug. In a disadvantageous manner, for certain sensor materials this results in the pressure sensor being also operated in its non-linear range, which results in a non-reproducible measuring signal and unreliable pressure detection in the combustion chamber of the engine.
- Furthermore, the above-described arrangement of the pressure sensor being situated in the proximity of the internal space of the cylinder and being directly coupled to the glow plug during operation of the diesel engine is associated with a substantial heat load on the pressure sensor, thus jeopardizing its operational reliability. This may result in malfunction of the device for detecting the pressure in the combustion chamber of the engine and thus also in unreliable detection of the pressure in the combustion chamber of the engine, in particular when the signal output of the pressure sensor becomes unsteady due to fluctuations between high and low operating temperatures.
- The device according to the present invention has the advantage over the related art that the above-mentioned shortcomings are avoided to a satisfactory degree.
- For this purpose, the sensor is situated between the fastening element of the glow element of the glow plug and a second end of the glow plug. This offers the possibility of uncoupling the sensor from the total force acting upon the glow element and of operating it in its linear and low-hysteresis range. The separation between the attachment of the glow element and the attachment of the sensor in the glow plug allows the stressed area of the sensor to be delimited in a controlled manner in such a way that the optimum area of the sensor with respect to signal generation may be used for reliable and reproducible detection of the pressure in the combustion chamber of the engine.
- Furthermore, the distance between the sensor and the glow element, as well as the thermal connection of the glow element via its attachment to the housing, causes a reduction in the heat load on the sensor, in such a way that its operational reliability is less affected, making the detection of the pressure in the combustion chamber of the engine more reliable.
- According to an advantageous embodiment, there is an at least indirect frictional connection with pre-stress between the sensor and the glow element, which counteracts a hysteresis effect in detecting measured values.
- It is furthermore advantageous that the sensor is separated from the glow element and the fastening element by at least one spacer. This design and stiffness may allow the maximum force acting upon the sensor to be adjusted.
- It is also advantageous if the at least one spacer is designed as an intermediate sleeve, the sensor is designed as a piezoelectric ring, and the fastening element is designed as a sleeve. This allows heating and signal lines for the sheathed element glow plug and the sensor to be run through in a simplified manner.

Thisfastening element 22 is designed as a support tube which surrounds and fastensglow element 17 over its circumference in anend area 23 of its other end. Fasteningelement 22, in turn, is pressed intohousing 13. - Alternatively, fastening
element 22 may also be implemented as a graphite sleeve or in the form of a permanent bond, for example, a weld. -
Sensor 26 is situated betweenfastening element 22 and thus betweenend area 23 ofglow element 17 andsecond end 24 ofglow plug 11.Sensor 26 is separated fromglow element 17 by a spacer 27 in this embodiment. Alternatively,sensor 26 may also directly rest againstglow element 17. -

Fastener 29 is designed, for example, as a sleeve caulked inhousing 13 and may also alternatively rest directly againstsensor 26. - Spacer 27 and spacer element 28 are designed as an intermediate sleeve 31, which is preferably made of ceramic or steel.
- Contacting elements in the form of electric lines, used for supplying
glow element 17 with power and for conducting the signals output bysensor 26, lead away fromsecond end 24 ofglow plug 11. - The above-described geometric arrangement of the important individual elements of the device for detecting the pressure in a combustion chamber of an engine is based on the following functions and effects.
- During operation of the engine, combustion gases are generated in
combustion chamber 19 and exert a pressure force onglow element 17 due to their limited expansion incombustion chamber 19. The axial components of the pressure force, directed in the longitudinal direction ofglow plug 11 tend to displaceglow element 17 towardsecond end 24 ofglow plug 11. However,glow element 17 is largely prevented from being displaced by fasteningelement 22, which absorbs most of these pressure forces and transmits them tohousing 13 and tocylinder head 14. - The pressure force on

Ideally, the signal output bysensor 26 is a quantity proportional to the pressure incombustion chamber 19. - To detect the pressure in
combustion chamber 19,sensor 26 may also be operated in a pre-stressed manner to reduce hysteresis effects, for example. For this purpose, afterglow element 17 is fastened tohousing 13 viafastening element 22, a predefined force is applied tosensor 26, to press it againstglow element 17 even when the engine is stopped, alternatively even indirectly via intermediate spacer 27. This pre-stress is maintained byfastener 29 fixedly mounted inhousing 13 or a spacer element 28 fastened tohousing 13. - The maximum force on
sensor 26 may then be adjusted via the stiffness ofhousing 13, fasteningelement 22, or fastener 29. - The separation between
fastening element 22 forglow element 17 and fastener 29 forsensor 26 allows the optimum area ofsensor 26 with respect to signal generation to be used for reliable and reproducible detection of the pressure in the combustion chamber of the engine.
