- Figure 6 is a detailed schematic sectional view of an attached to a cylinder block adapter device together with the comesstrahlensonden- tevorraum according to the invention.
- FIG. 1 is an example of a cavity to be cleaned, namely, an intake passage 10 in a cylinder head 12 of an internal combustion engine, such as a diesel engine 14, conventionally mounted on a corresponding cylinder block 16.
- An outlet opening 18 of the inlet channel 10 which opens into a cylinder, not illustrated in detail in the cylinder block 16, is conventionally closed by an inlet valve 20, which is guided in the cylinder head 12 by means of a corresponding valve guide 22 in accordance with the engine control, to release and close the opening 18 of the intake passage 10.
- the intake ports 10 and intake valves 20 of diesel engines coke very strongly, as indicated schematically in FIG. Particularly affected are so-called swirl ducts (not shown in detail) which are used in modern diesel engines with four valves per cylinder in order to impart a twist to the gas mixture to be supplied to the cylinder, which should lead to improved mixing of air and injected fuel ,
- swirl ducts not shown in detail
- the surface of the neck and the conical end portion of the inlet valve 20 are contaminated.
- the deposits in the inlet channels 10 and the inlet valves 20 are, in particular, soft, greasy carbon deposits.
- the cleaning of the inlet channels 10 and the inlet valves 20 is carried out by exposing the inlet-side openings 24 of the inlet channels 10 in the cylinder head 12 into the inlet channel 10 with a pulverized detergent together with an aqueous liquid under pressure, so that by dissolving the cleaning powder in the aqueous liquid forms a cleaning liquid in the cavity to be cleaned, the cleaning effect is optionally enhanced by the heating due to the heat of solution when dissolving the cleaning powder.
- FIG. 2 shows, in a simplified schematic sectional view, a device 26 according to the invention for cleaning cavities, in particular the walls of the inlet channel 10 and / or the surface of the inlet valve 20, as fastened on the side of the inlet-side opening 24 of the inlet channel 10 to the cylinder head 12.
- the device 26 has a cleaning jet probe 28 (which is only partially shown in FIG. 2 and will be described in detail below with reference to FIG. 3), a suction device 30, an adapter device 32 and a cleaning jet probe holding device 34.
- the adapter device 32 is detachably fastened to the cylinder head 12 and seals the inlet-side opening 24 of the inlet channel 10 such that an access channel 36 for the passage of the cleaning jet probe 28 remains in the inlet channel 10.
- the cleaning probe holder 34 may be formed integrally or firmly connected to the adapter device 32, but it is also possible to provide a detachable connection such as a plug connection between the cleaning jet probe holder 34 and the adapter device 32 (as described in more detail below with reference to FIGS Figures 5 and 6 will be explained).
- a rubber bellows 38 is provided, which is in close contact with the cleaning jet probe 28 at its one end and with the cleaning jet probe holding device 34 at its other end. In this case, there must be a close contact between the rubber bellows 38 and the cleaning jet probe 28 only insofar as it is necessary to prevent leaking liquid with dirt particles.
- the cleaning jet probe holding device 34 has a suction connection 40, through which cleaning fluid and introduced gas with dirt components dispersed therein can be sucked out of the cavity through the suction device 30.
- the cleaning jet probe 28 has a first channel 42 for introducing a water-soluble cleaning powder 44 as a powder jet into the cavity to be cleaned by means of a compressed gas and a second channel 46 for introducing aqueous liquid 48 into the cavity to be cleaned.
- the powder jet of the cleaning powder 44 is directed to the corresponding contaminants, wherein the impact of the cleaning powder 44 on the contaminants 50 similar to a sandblast An abrasive removal of dirt 50 takes place.
- Due to the additionally introduced aqueous liquid 48 comes after hitting the surface to be cleaned to a mixing of the cleaning powder 44 with the aqueous liquid 48, which additionally still a chemical cleaning due to the.
- Dissolving the cleaning powder 44 in the aqueous liquid 48 resulting cleaning liquid takes place. A detailed description of the cleaning process will be given later.
- FIG. 3 shows a simplified schematic representation of the cleaning jet probe 28, which is connected via a liquid line 52 to a liquid source 54 and via a gas pressure line 56 to a compressed gas source 58.

- the curvature of the powder jet tube 62 with the first channel 42 should not be too great to avoid abrasion of the inner wall of the first channel 42 by the cleaning powder 44 guided in the first channel 42, or at least minimizing damage to the tube 62 to avoid.
- the powder jet tube 62 has a diameter of 2 to 10 mm, preferably 4 to 8 mm and in particular 6 mm and is made of a resistant material such as hardened steel.
- a pressurized gas preferably compressed air is used. Since the cleaning process is usually carried out in motor vehicle workshops, as a compressed gas source 58, a conventional compressed air source such as a compressor can be used. However, it is important that dried air is used to prevent clumping of the cleaning powder 44. Accordingly, when using a non-dried air pressure source additionally a drying device (not shown) can be interposed.
- the pressure of the compressed gas used is in a range of 0.5 bar to 3 bar.
- the cleaning powder 44 is stored in a cleaning powder container 64 and is sucked through a suction port 66 of a siphon 68 according to the Venturi principle in the compressed gas stream within the powder jet tube 62 and blown out together with the compressed gas stream as a cleaning powder jet from a first outlet opening 70 in the direction of the dirt 50 to be cleaned.
