Definitions
- the subject of the present invention is a heat engine calorstat support with an external hot water circuit.
- LPG liquefied petroleum gas
- LPG is increasingly used as an energy source for internal combustion engines.
- This fuel has the advantage of producing very little pollution and is subject to more " advantageous taxation than that applied to other fuels.
- This device is in the form of a box comprising a double enclosure formed by a gas vaporization chamber and a thermal chamber in which a hot liquid circulates which is generally constituted by the engine cooling water taken off by to a bypass made on the circuit connecting it to the radiator.
- Engines with so-called water cooling have a sealed closed circuit containing an aqueous solution containing anti-corrosion additives and antifreeze.
- the coolant heats up inside the engine block. It is then pumped to the top of a water-air exchanger, called a radiator, and - after cooling - returns to the engine. Its flow is controlled by a direct-acting thermostat located at the outlet of the engine block, the calorstat, which closes the circuit, when cold, to accelerate the warming up of the liquid, at start-up, to its optimal temperature, and which then opens to keep this temperature constant.
- the calorstat 1 is mounted on a support 2 fixed on the engine block 3 and communicating with the delivery pipe 4 of the water pump.
- patent number FR 2 757 217 describes a vaporization box for liquefied gas comprising, inside the thermal chamber, an enclosure or a tubular circuit connected to the inlet and outlet of engine cooling.
- the coolant takes a long enough time to reach the temperature necessary to vaporize the liquefied gas, especially in cold weather. In addition, this temperature varies depending on the engine speed.
- the device according to the present invention aims to remedy these drawbacks. Indeed, it can be easily and quickly installed on an existing liquefied gas vaporizer and allows to have a heat source at constant temperature for preheating the liquefied gas.
- FIGS. 1 and 2 represent a calorstat support of known type, seen respectively from above and in section along the arrows F1
- FIG. 3 is a top view of the calorstat support according to the invention
- FIG. 4 is a section along the arrows F2 in FIG. 3
- FIG. 5 is a section along the arrows F3 in FIG. 4.
- the device consists of a support housing 11 of calorstat 1 provided with an outlet nozzle 12 and a return nozzle 13 for connecting two tubes intended to connect the support housing to the thermal chamber of the LPG vaporization system
- the support box 11 is provided with a base identical to that of the normal support 2 making it possible to mount it in place of the latter. It has two watertight compartments inside: an outlet compartment 14, located behind the calorstat 1 and communicating with the valve of the latter as well as with the outlet nozzle 12, and a return compartment 15 communicating with the enclosure of the engine block 3 and the return nozzle 13.
- the support housing will preferably be made of light alloy cast iron, but may be made of any other suitable material, in particular of heat-resistant synthetic material.
- the system does not affect the operation of the engine.
- the calorstat 1 is closed and prevents any circulation of fluid in the pipes connected to the nozzles 12, 13 for outlet and return, the elevation of LPG temperature being obtained by a preheating system, for example electric.
- the calorstat opens and allows the circulation of the fluid to be established in the circuit external to the support housing 11 and the calories taken up by the vaporization system of the liquefied gas will have the effect of improve the efficiency of the engine cooling system.
