Definitions
- a cylinder head for a multi-cylinder internal combustion engine comprises at least two intake valves and two exhaust valves per cylinder, the valve disk centers of the intake valves and the valve disk centers of the exhaust valves not being arranged at the same distance from the perpendicular bisector of the cylinder head.
- a generic cylinder head is known from WO 86/05237. This cylinder head is completely symmetrical. This results in a whole series of problems when accommodating the individual components in a confined space within the cylinder head.
- the intake valves and the exhaust valves are controlled by two camshafts, a number of identically designed actuating elements are arranged between the valves and the cams of the camshafts and have the Cams of the camshafts assigned to valves have different base circle diameters. This ensures that the intake ports and the exhaust ports of the cylinder head on the receptacles for the Stud bolts of the cylinders, the bearings of the camshafts and the recesses for the injection nozzles can be passed.
- the actuating elements being of identical design for all valves, there can be no confusion when equipping the cylinder head with the actuating elements.
- the actuating elements associated with the inlet valves and the outlet valves are inclined to the camshafts to the same extent in order to achieve a uniform rolling or friction between the actuating element and the valve or the valve cap.
- the object is achieved by the features of patent claim 2.
- the inlet valves and the outlet valves are controlled by two camshafts, a number of identically designed actuating elements are arranged between the valves and the cams of the camshafts, and the actuating elements assigned to the valves are inclined to different degrees to the camshafts.
- the bearings of the actuating levers are arranged at different heights.
- the inlet and outlet valves as well as the actuating elements are arranged here in a manner that is almost contrary to symmetry.
- the cams of the camshafts assigned to the valves have the same base circle diameters.
- the two mentioned embodiments can also be combined with one another, so that the inlet valves and the outlet valves are controlled by two camshafts, that between the valves and the cams of the camshafts a number of identically designed actuating elements is arranged such that the cams assigned to the valves Camshafts have different base circle diameters and that the actuating elements assigned to the valves are inclined to different degrees to the camshafts. This then opens up a further degree of freedom, which allows even more extensive use of the space available in the cylinder head.
- the valve springs of the inlet valves and the outlet valves, which counteract the actuating elements advantageously have different installation lengths depending on the position of the valve plate centers in the installed state.
- valve springs which all have the same size and the same spring constant, act against the actuating elements with different forces depending on the installation length or compression.
- the different forces are necessary since not only the valve plate centers of the valves but also the actuating elements are arranged at different distances from the perpendicular to the cylinder head or the camshafts, and different lever forces arise from the different distances of the actuating elements when they engage the cams of the camshafts surrender.
- the actuating elements are preferably designed as rocker arms, the rocker arms being mounted on hydraulic support elements. This eliminates the need to store the actuating elements on separate shafts, so that there is a substantial saving in space.
- the hydraulic support elements are particularly suitable for the arrangement of the actuating elements in differently inclined positions relative to the camshafts. The actuating elements can thus be arranged at different angles of inclination without any additional measures having to be taken.
- Figure 1 is a plan view of the cylinder head according to the invention in a highly simplified schematic representation
- FIG. 2 shows a section along the line If-Il * from FIG. 1, to illustrate the actuation of the two inlet valves according to the first embodiment of the invention
- 3 shows another section along the line HI-HI 'from Figure 1 to illustrate the actuation of the two exhaust valves according to the first embodiment
- Figure 4 shows a section along the line H-H 'of Figure 1, according to the second embodiment.
- FIG. 5 shows a further section along the line III-II from FIG. 1 according to the second embodiment of the invention.
- the cylinder head 1 has two intake valves 2 and two exhaust valves 3 per cylinder 4.
- the valve plate centers 5 of the two intake valves 2 as well as the valve plate centers 5 'of the two exhaust valves 3 are arranged at different distances from the center perpendicular M of the cylinder head 1.
- the valve stems 6 of the inlet valves 2 and the valve stems 6 'of the outlet valves 3 are at different distances from the axes of a first one and a second overhead camshaft 7, 7 '.
- actuating elements 9 of identical design are arranged between the cams 8 of the camshafts 7, 7 'and the free ends of the valve stems 6, 6'. These actuation elements 9 are designed as simple rocker arms and are mounted on a hydraulic support element 10 with a hemispherical joint head 11.
- the actuating elements 9 are brought to bear against the cams 8 of the camshafts 7, 7 'by means of a valve spring 12. As a result, the actuating elements 9, when acted upon by the cams 8, act counter to the force of the valve springs 12.
- the intake valves 2 associated cam 8 of the camshaft 7, T differently sized Grund Vietnamese silk silk screen ⁇ diameter DG I, DQ2 on - ⁇ s can be clearly seen that there DQ I is greater AJS D ⁇ 32-
- the various actuators 9 all have same position or inclination in the cylinder head 1.
- the working area of the actuating elements 9 is defined by the respective base circle diameter DQ-), DQ2 unc * by the position of the intake valves 2.
- the working area is the area with the cams 8 of the camshafts 7, 7 'is in contact.
- the valve springs 12 used In order to be able to maintain approximately the same lever forces on the side of the support element 10 and on the side of the free end of the valve stem 6, 6 ', even with differently defined working areas of the actuating elements 9, the valve springs 12 used, all of which have the The same size and the same spring constant have different installation lengths Lpi, Lp2 when installed.
- the installation length Lpi is chosen to be shorter than the installation length Lp2-
- FIG. 3 a section along the line III-II I "through the two outlet valves 3 is shown in FIG. 3. It is clear from this illustration that the size relationships for the outlet valves 3 are exactly opposite Base circle diameter DQI smaller than the base circle diameter DG2- In addition, the installation length Lp-j of the one valve spring 12 is chosen to be greater than the installation length Lp2 of the other valve spring 12.
- the base circle diameters DQ of the cams 8 of the camshafts 7, T are the same, while the actuating elements 9 assigned to the inlet valves 2 to the camshafts 7, T are smaller by the angle ⁇ are inclined differently.
- the actuating elements 9 assigned to the inlet valves 2 to the camshafts 7, T are smaller by the angle ⁇ are inclined differently.
- the rod ends 11 of the hydraulic support elements 10 are arranged somewhat offset in height. Such an offset in the height of the joint heads 11 is achieved in the case of the inclined support elements 10 shown by a displacement.
- FIG. 5 shows a section through the outlet valves 3 according to the second embodiment of the invention.
- the basic circle diameters DG of the cams 8 of the camshafts 7, T are of the same size and the actuating levers 9 are inclined differently by the angle ⁇ but in the opposite way.
- one valve spring 12 is greater than the installation length Lp2 of the other valve spring 12.
