Abstract:
For the purpose of achieving a simple casting design that exhibits high rigidity and specific coolant guide, it is proposed for a liquid cooled cross flow cylinder head, which is intended for internal combustion engines with cylinders arranged in series and comprises a coolant chamber, which is closed against an integrated control housing by means of a cover wall, that the cover wall exhibit a cavity between diametrical screw pipes and shaft tubes, which adjoin at right angles, for spark plugs or injection nozzles. Said cavity is connected to the cylinder head bottom by a cross wall between the diametrical screw pipes. The cavity's wall segments that ascend from the cross wall in the direction of the cover wall serve as the flow guide surfaces.
