Definitions
- the present invention relates to an arrangement for exhaust gas feedback in a four-stroke combustion engine in accordance with what is indicated in more detail in the preamble to patent claim 1.
- the invention also relates to a method according to the preamble to patent claim 8.
- the invention is particularly intended for a turbocharged diesel engine.
- exhaust gas feedback in a diesel engine also needs to be possible at higher inlet pressures than in an Otto engine.
- the need for exhaust gas feedback in Otto engines arises mainly at low engine load, which usually means low inlet pressure.
- exhaust gas feedback is possible without major counterpressure, since the exhaust gas turbine is largely bypassed during the operating situations which are relevant for exhaust gas feedback, with the result that even the inlet compressor generates no great inlet pressure.
- a turbo engine thus exhibits substantially the same characteristics as an aspirating engine during exhaust gas feedback. This means that arranging exhaust gas feedback for an Otto engine does not normally involve any major problems.
- JP-A-2- 140454 Previously known from JP-A-2- 140454 is a system for feeding part of the exhaust gases back directly to the inlet via a special valve arranged to feed pan of the exhaust gases from the combustion chamber to the inlet via a special connecting duct leading to the inlet valve.
- This system with the extra valve for feedback is particularly intended to be used before the engine has warmed up, in order to speed up the warming up of the engine and achieve complete combustion.
- Previously known from WO-85/05654 is a four-stroke combustion engine with an arrangement for feeding part of the exhaust gases back from an exhaust line to the combustion chamber.
- the camshaft which controls the exhaust valve is provided with an extra cam which opens the exhaust gas valve somewhat during the induction stroke.
- the resulting higher pressure prevailing in the exhaust line makes part of the exhaust gases flow back into the combustion chamber.
- DE-A1-26 38 651 is a combustion engine with a camshaft which, for operating the exhaust valve, has an extra cam in order to be able during the induction stroke to open the exhaust valve somewhat so as to allow part of the exhaust gases to flow back into the combustion chamber, in order, particularly in the lower speed range, to increase the compression in the combustion chamber.
- the object of the present invention is, as mentioned in the introduction, to provide an arrangement for exhaust gas feedback, which arrangement has to be particularly suitable for use in diesel engines with turbocompressor, and where, as also mentioned above, exhaust gases cannot be fed back from the exhaust line to the intake pipe. Another object is to make possible a corresponding method for feeding back exhaust gases.
- the invention as indicated in patent claim 4 is particularly advantageous in making it possible to cool the exhaust gases leaving the combustion chamber before the exhaust gases are fed back into the combustion chamber.
- Fig. 1 shows a section through a cylinder in a combustion engine (with only one inlet valve depicted) which is provided with an overhead camshaft.
- Fig. 1 shows schematically a cross-section through a combustion engine, with a cylinder 1 and with a piston 2 movable therein.
- a spring-loaded inlet valve 4 which is acted on by an overhead camshaft 5.
- the inlet valve 4 closes an inlet duct 6 which is connected to an inlet pipe 7 via which air for combustion is supplied to the cylinder 1.
- the inlet pipe 7 is arranged outside the cylinder head 3, while the inlet duct 6 forms part of the cylinder head.
- the inlet pipe 7 and the inlet duct 6 together form part of the engine inlet line which extends from a filtered inlet (not depicted) to the engine cylinder 1.
- the drawing shows only one valve, namely the inlet valve 4, but there is of course also at least one outlet valve and it is also possible for there to be more than one inlet valve for each cylinder.
- the valves and their positioning in the cylinder head are not of any decisive significance for the invention, but are of quite ordinary design and construction, so they will not be described in more detail here.
- the camshaft 5 is provided with two cams for each inlet valve 4, namely the cam 8 and the cam 9.
- the cam 8 is the cam which opens the inlet valve 4 for the inlet stroke so that intake air is let into the combustion chamber via the inlet duct 6.
- the further cam 9 is situated approximately opposite the normal cam 8 and is arranged to open the inlet valve 4 somewhat, e.g.
- the further cam 9 has a lower height than the conventional cam 8 and it also has steeper flanks, which means that the further opening of the inlet valve 4 is for a shorter time and with a lower lift height than during the inlet stroke.
- the purpose of this arrangement is to make part of the exhaust gases during the end of the expansion stroke and/or the beginning of the exhaust stroke flow back into the inlet line 6,7 in order thereafter to be able to be fed back into the combustion chamber during the next inlet stroke in order to again participate in and, in a manner known per se, influence the combustion.
- the exhaust gas quantity fed back can be cooled before being fed back to the combustion chamber.
- the inlet pipe 7 it is usual for the inlet pipe 7 to be preceded by a charge air cooler for cooling the air quantity supplied to the inlet duct 6.
- the reference notation 10 denotes schematically a charge air cooler placed between the inlet pipe 7 and the inlet duct 6.
- the charge air cooler 10 should be placed as close to the cylinder head 3 as possible and it is advantageous for it to be mounted directly on the cylinder head 3. This creates the possibility of the exhaust gases being initially cooled when they flow backwards in towards the inlet pipe 7 and being thereafter cooled again when they flow back in towards the combustion chamber.
- the combustion air fed to the cylinder 1 via the inlet line is cooled conventionally by the charge air cooler 10.
- the coolant has passed through the charge air cooler 10, it goes on to the engine's other cooling ducts in order to conventionally cool the engine.
- the embodiment described also includes a charge air cooler connected directly between the inlet pipe and the cylinder head.
- the charge air cooler may be situated at other points in the inlet line. It is also possible to integrate the charge air cooler and the inlet pipe with one another.
- the invention is particularly advantageous for such engines.
- the invention may in alternative embodiments be also used for other types of engines, whether supercharged or not and whether Otto engines or diesel engines.

Abstract
Ce moteur à combustion à quatre temps, de préférence un moteur diesel à turbocompresseur, comprend une chambre de combustion, une ou plusieurs soupapes (4) d'admission, ainsi qu'au moins un arbre à cames (5) commandant les soupapes de manière à ouvrir les soupapes d'admission, lors de la course d'admission du moteur, et que de l'air de combustion soit envoyé, depuis une conduite (6, 7) d'admission, dans la chambre de combustion. Pour la réinjection d'une partie des gaz d'échappement, l'une au moins, des soupapes (4) d'admission est conçue pour pouvoir également être ouverte lors d'une partie de la course de détente du moteur et/ou du temps d'échappement, de manière à ce qu'une partie des gaz d'échappement soit réinjectée dans la conduite (6, 7) d'admission, et envoyée dans la chambre de combustion avec le nouvel air de combustion, lors d'une course d'admission ultérieure.
