Definitions
- the present invention relates to a system for lubricating the surfaces in contact with a camshaft and a hydraulic tappet for an internal combustion engine.
- These pushers generally comprise a jacket comprising a first hydraulic compression chamber for adjusting the clearance of a corresponding valve, this chamber being supplied from a source of fluid through a first orifice formed in the side wall of the jacket, when the pusher is in the high position.
- the object of the invention is therefore to solve these problems by proposing a lubrication system for surfaces in contact with the camshaft and the hydraulic valve which is simple, reliable and which avoids any machining or addition of additional parts in the cylinder head.
- the subject of the invention is a system for lubricating the surfaces in contact with a camshaft and a hydraulic tappet for an internal combustion engine, in which the tappet comprises a jacket comprising a first hydraulic compression chamber for adjusting the clearance of a corresponding valve, supplied from a source of fluid through at least one first orifice formed in the side wall of the jacket, when the pusher is in the high position, characterized in that the jacket comprises a second hydraulic chamber, above the first, at least one second orifice opening into the second chamber, formed in its side wall above the first, at a distance corresponding to the stroke of the pusher, so that the second chamber is supplied from the source when the pusher is in the low position, and at least one third orifice formed in its upper wall, opening on the one hand in the second chamber and on the other hand near the surfaces in contact with the camshaft and the tappet to lubricate them.
- the hydraulic tappets 2 of the prior art have a jacket 8 and a piston assembly 9 used to adjust the clearance of a corresponding valve.
- This fluid is introduced into this chamber by means of an annular groove 12 formed in the external surface of the side wall of the jacket, and of an orifice 13 opening on the one hand into the chamber 11 and on the other hand into the groove 12, from the feed channel 5 described with reference to FIG. 1.
- An orifice 14 ( Figure 1), one end of which opens into this channel 5, is also provided in the cylinder head, to supply this chamber with fluid when the pusher is in the high position.
- FIG. 3 is a sectional view of a pusher used in the constitution of a lubrication system according to the invention, we see that it has the same elements as those described in look of Figure 2 namely a jacket 15, a piston assembly 16, a first annular spacer 17 between the side wall of the jacket and the piston assembly, a first orifice 18 opening into a first annular groove 19 for the supply of a first chamber 20 of fluid necessary for the operation of the piston assembly.
- the jacket 15 comprises a second hydraulic chamber 21 formed above the first.
- the first and second hydraulic chambers of this jacket are separated by an annular spacer 22 one end of which is fixed to the interior surface of the side wall of the jacket 15 and the other to the interior surface of the top wall of this jacket.
- This jacket also has at least a second orifice 23 opening into this second chamber 21, this orifice being formed in the side wall of the shirt, above the first orifice 18 at a distance corresponding to the stroke of the pusher so that the second chamber 21 is supplied from the source 5 when the pusher is in the low position, as will be described in more detail below.
- This orifice also opens into an annular groove 24 parallel to the groove 19 described above.
- the jacket also comprises at least a third calibrated orifice 25 formed in its upper wall, this orifice opening on the one hand into the second chamber 21 and on the other hand near the surfaces in contact with the camshaft and the tappet to lubricate them.
- the annular spacers 17 and 22 can be fixed in any suitable manner in the jacket, for example by crimping or welding by electronic bombardment.
- This orifice 25 can be determined to precisely direct a certain quantity of fluid on the facing surfaces to obtain optimal lubrication.
- the annular groove 24 may have several orifices spaced around its periphery to improve the filling of the second chamber.
- several differently oriented orifices can be provided in the upper wall of the pusher to ensure the simultaneous lubrication of several elements, for example in the case of engines having twin camshafts or valve controls by combined cam / latch devices.
