Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a press-in sleeve for insertion in a fire cover opening of a cylinder head of an internal combustion engine.
  • a press-in sleeve for sealing and cooling a component projecting through a fire cover opening in the cylinder head of an internal combustion engine and a corresponding cylinder head are described.
  • Known cylinder heads of an internal combustion engine have at least one dome intended for receiving a spark plug or an injection nozzle per cylinder. Each dome is surrounded by a coolant space.
  • the document DE 41 19 594 C2 describes such a cylinder head for an internal combustion engine.
  • the documents JP S63 160351 U describes a cylinder head with a spark plug, which is housed in a thin-walled storage cylinder, which extends from a fire cover opening of the cylinder head to the opposite end of the cylinder head and is fluid-tightly connected to the cylinder head at both ends by sealing elements.
  • the document FR 2 910 555 A3 describes an injection nozzle which is pressed with its lower end directly into the bore of a cylinder head of an internal combustion engine, a nozzle also inserted into the bore of the cylinder head exerting pressure from above onto the upper edge of the injection nozzle.
  • Threaded sleeves are increasingly being used for the spark plugs or the injection nozzles in the cylinder head.
  • the use of a sleeve significantly improves the cooling of the spark plug or the injection nozzle due to the thin wall and good thermal conductivity of the sleeve.
  • the manufacture of such cylinder heads is easier.
  • Such sleeves are screwed into the fire deck of a cylinder head.
  • the external thread of the sleeve and the internal thread on the fire deck are sealed.
  • the sleeve is freely supported in the upper area and sealed with an O-ring.
  • Such a conventional sleeve is well suited for the use of a diesel injector, since the tip of the injector is narrow.
  • the injection nozzle itself is inserted from above and has no thread at the end facing the combustion chamber.
  • a spark plug In contrast to the injection nozzle, a spark plug requires considerably more space in the lower area, i. H. in the area facing the combustion chamber, the fire deck. In addition, the spark plug must be screwed in and out with a certain torque. When screwing the spark plug in or out there is a risk of twisting the sleeve relative to the cylinder head, for example unintentionally unscrewing it. This results in additional work steps. Furthermore, the tightness of the thread can be irreversibly damaged.
  • the use of a sleeve requires a larger diameter of the fire deck opening compared to the outer diameter of the injection nozzle or the spark plug, which means that the fatigue strength, especially the fatigue strength and fatigue strength, of the fire deck deteriorate.
  • a further or alternative task is to provide a sleeve for sealing and cooling a component protruding through a fire deck opening in the cylinder head of an internal combustion engine, which prevents unintentional unscrewing and / or its tightness with respect to the fire deck is not impaired by the replacement of the component.
