摘要:
A high-pressure metering pump for providing reductant in a single fluid engine exhaust dosing system, comprising: a solenoid for actuating a piston slidably received within an inner bore of a valve housing of the pump, the inner bore having a pressure chamber with an inlet check valve and an outlet check valve; and wherein movement of the piston causes high pressure reductant to be received at an atomizer of the system, the atomizer being disposed in a location to cause a maximum reduction of undesirable pollutant in the combustion gases of an engine.

In a Type 2 engine, a valve deactivation hydraulic lash adjuster (DHLA) in accordance with the invention replaces a conventional hydraulic lash adjuster in the train of a gas-exchange valve in a compression-ignited engine. In a Type 3 engine, a similar DHLA is disposed within an articulated rocker arm which is made selectively competent (valve activating) or incompetent (valve deactivating) thereby. A solenoid valve within the assembly diverts hydraulic fluid between support and non-support of a piston slidably disposed in a housing and terminating in a ball head. The valve is force-balanced. The preferred hydraulic fluid is diesel fuel, allowing for smaller diameter passages and cleaner operation than in prior art systems, eliminating the need for an accumulator chamber and accumulator piston as in the prior art. An alternate version of a type 3 engine having a DHLA, in accordance with the invention, is also shown.
摘要:
A valvetrain system mechanization for an internal combustion engine using compression ignition, including homogeneous charge compression ignition, having two intake and one or more exhaust valves per cylinder. The valves are operated by dual overhead camshafts having two-step cams. The intake and exhaust camshafts are provided with phasers for varying the opening and closing of the intake and exhaust valves. A two-step roller finger follower is disposed for each valve between the cam lobes and the valve stem. The two sets of intake and exhaust valves are controlled by separate oil control valves. Swirl of gases may be introduced by mismatching the lifts of the valves. The valve opening times, closing times, lifts, fuel injection, compression ratio, and exhaust gas recirculation may be varied to optimize combustion conditions for a range of engine operating modes.
摘要:
An electro-hydraulic lost motion system for variable valve activation including a master piston and an accumulation piston in a first bore, defining a hydraulic pressure chamber therebetween, in response to rotation of an engine cam. A slave piston in the engine head and hydraulically connected to the pressure chamber opens and closes an engine valve. A servo-valve behind the accumulation piston controls the mobility of the accumulation piston via a fluid control chamber. When the control chamber is made hydraulically rigid, the system actuates the engine valve. When the control chamber is vented through the servo-valve, the accumulation piston is movable in lost motion, preventing the engine valve from opening. All intermediate degrees of valve opening are possible. Preferably, the servo-valve, control chamber, accumulation piston, and a control piston are comprehended in a modular subassembly which may be positioned adjacent the master piston or the slave piston.
摘要:
A fuel injector nozzle for dispersing fuel during a normal combustion operation and a supplemental combustion operation, the fuel injector nozzle comprising: a plurality of first outlet openings configured to disperse fuel during homogeneous charge compression ignition and non-homogeneous charge compression ignition; and a plurality of second outlet openings configured to disperse fuel only during non-homogeneous charge compression ignition, wherein fuel dispersed from the plurality of second outlet openings collides with and subsumes fuel dispersed from the plurality of first outlet openings.
