Abstract

Bekannte Verbrennungsmotoren weisen häufig einen Steuergehäusedeckel auf, der ein Steuergehäuse abdeckt und in welchem Pumpenkammern sowie Anschlüsse eines Kühlmittelsystems vorgesehen sind. Durch Undichtigkeiten in dem Steuergehäusedeckel kann es zu Verunreinigungen von Schmiermitteln in dem Steuergehäuse sowie zu Beeinträchtigungen der Funktion von dort angeordneten Bauteilen oder Baugruppen kommen.
Es wird ein Verbrennungsmotor (10) mit einem Steuergehäusedeckel (20) vorgeschlagen, bei dem eine Pumpeneinlasskammer (58) eine Pumpenauslasskammer (64) derart umschließt, dass sie die Pumpenauslasskammer (64) von dem Steuergehäuse trennt.
