Definitions
- the invention relates to a switching element for a valve train of an internal combustion engine, preferably for valve shutdown, with an outer part and an inner element axially movable in its bore, the outer part and the inner element in an axially distant relative position achieved by a lost motion spring at least one relative to the other have aligned receptacle and in one of the receptacles movable coupling means for coupling the inner element to the outer part are applied in the relative position to each other.
- Such a switching element here designed as a cam follower in a push rod drive, is previously known from DE 199 15 531. It is disadvantageous in this case that only a piston is provided as the coupling means. It is clear to the person skilled in the art that there is an increased component load in the coupling area due to the one-piston coupling. There is also a relatively high risk of tipping over of the inner element opposite the outer part. It is also disadvantageous that a bore is provided as the receptacle into which the piston enters as a coupling means. Due to the special penetration of the body, an extremely undesirable edge load can occur if the coupling agent is insufficiently extended.
- the object of the invention is therefore to provide a switching element of the aforementioned type, in which the disadvantages cited are eliminated with simple means.
- this object is achieved in that two pistons are provided as coupling means, which run in the receptacle of the inner element designed as a radial bore and are diametrically opposed there, the receptacle of the outer part being made as an annular groove in its bore and the pistons on their underside remote from the cam , starting from its radially outer end face, in sections have a flat transverse face as a contact area to a facing annular face of the annular groove, and the pistons are guided in the inner element via an anti-rotation device.
- the pistons have a flat transverse surface on their underside as a contact area to the annular groove, so that the surface pressure is drastically reduced here.
- the cam stroke can be very large load-bearing surfaces to transfer to the inner part.
- more than two coupling means can also be arranged in the inner element, preferably these should then be distributed symmetrically.
- the pistons are fixed with respect to their receptacle by a simple anti-rotation device.
- the invention contemplates, for example, a snap ring surrounding the inner element, on which the transverse surface of the pistons rests in the receiving area.
- the pistons themselves can also be secured against rotation by flats or tongue-and-groove configurations.
- the radial bore in the inner element is preferably made as a through bore.
- a stepped or staged training is also conceivable, so that the aforementioned snap ring or a similar means can be dispensed with.
- the radially outer end face of the pistons at least in the edge region to the transverse surface, has a curvature correlating to the bore of the inner element. This means that even when the pistons are passed over the smallest amount in the annular groove of the outer part, a good carrying area is created.
- a further particularly preferred embodiment of the invention relates to the fact that an end face of the pistons connecting the transverse surface to the underside has a curvature correlating with the bore of the inner element or is chamfered like a roof. It is therefore clear that these simple measures allow the pistons to extend radially very far into the ring groove in the coupling case and thus result in an excellent contact pattern.
- the scope of this invention expressly relates to all types of switching elements in valve drives, such as cam followers in push rod drives, support elements for rocker arms, bucket tappets, etc.
- FIG. 2 shows a partial longitudinal section according to FIG. 1 rotated by 90 °
- FIG. 3 shows a partial longitudinal section similar to FIG. 2,
- FIG. 4 shows a bottom view of a piston as coupling means
- Figure 5 shows the piston in cross section
- Figures 1-3 disclose a switching element 1 for a valve train of an internal combustion engine.
- This is designed as a roller tappet for a tappet rod drive. It consists of an outer part 2, in the bore 3 of which an axially movable inner element 5 runs with its outer jacket 4.
- the outer part 2 and the inner element 5 are urged away from one another by a lost motion spring 6, which is not to be explained in more detail.
- the receptacles 7, 8 are aligned with one another.
- the receptacle 7 of the outer part 2 is made as a circumferential annular groove.
- the receptacle 8 in the inner element 5, on the other hand, is made as a radial through hole.
- a bowstring-like or skewed course is also conceivable.
- Two diametrically opposite coupling means 9 are arranged in the receptacle 8 of the inner element 5. These are designed here as pistons 10 and are urged away from one another by a pressure spring means 11. A stop 12 for the pistons 10 is created in the center of the receptacle 8. This is designed as a ring part like a snap ring. Thus, in a decoupling position, the piston 10 is always guaranteed its central position and thus the same travel.
- the coupling opening in the outer part 2 is circumferential, which has advantages in terms of production technology, for example.
- the end face 13 of the pistons 10, as shown in FIG. 4, can be curved, as can the bore 3 of the outer part 2.
- a good contact pattern occurs immediately after the pistons 10 are inserted into the annular groove 16. So-called edge supports are effectively avoided.
- FIG. 3 shows an alternative measure of the central stop 12 for the
- Piston 10 This is designed here as a pin 21 projecting orthogonally into the receptacle 8 of the inner element 5 designed as a radial bore.
