Definitions

  • the invention relates to an adjusting device for Relatiwer ein a camshaft with respect to a camshaft coaxially driving drive wheel, wherein the drive wheel and the camshaft are arranged coaxially with respect to a central axis of the adjusting device.
  • the crankshaft is coupled via a chain drive, a toothed belt drive or a toothed drive with a drive wheel which drives the camshaft substantially synchronously with the crankshaft.
  • the valve opening times of the internal combustion engine are controlled via the camshaft.
  • a control gear can be effective between the drive wheel and the camshaft, which can be driven by means of an electric motor to adjust the camshaft relative to the drive wheel.
  • an electric motor allows a particularly accurate control.
  • the actuating mechanism in such an arrangement forms a summing gear in which the drive wheel is associated with a first input, an output element of the electric motor (eg a motor pinion) is associated with a second input and the camshaft or camshaft section (eg a camshaft flange) is associated with an output of the summing gear is.
  • the drive wheel, the Output member of the electric motor and the camshaft are rotatable coaxially with each other, so that the entire unit of drive wheel, electric motor, control gear and camshaft about a common axis, the so-called central axis, can rotate.
  • the control gear In order to adjust the camshaft relative to the drive wheel, comparatively high torques must be applied. For this function can be met by a small-sized, fast-running electric motor, the control gear must cause a high ratio of the speed of the electric motor to slow (based on a fixed drive wheel).
  • the actuating gear having an internally toothed gear and an externally toothed gear meshing therewith, wherein the internally toothed gear is rotatable about said central axis and the externally toothed gear is eccentric with respect to the central axis and is driven in this eccentric arrangement to a circular movement about the central axis ,
  • the said circular movement is here - as the externally toothed gear rolls on the internally toothed gear - a relatively slow rotation of the externally toothed gear (relative to the internally toothed gear) superimposed.
  • a problem with such a control gear is, however, that the meshing with the internal gear external gear is arranged eccentrically with respect to the central axis of the adjusting device.
  • the circular motion of the externally toothed gear can not readily be applied to an input element or output element of the adjusting gear (eg on the camshaft) transmitted, which - as explained above - all should be arranged coaxially to the central axis.
  • An object of the invention is to provide a camshaft adjusting device of the type mentioned, in which the actuating mechanism causes a high gear ratio with a compact design and high efficiency in the slow.
  • an adjusting device with the features of claim 1, and in particular in that the externally toothed gear is eccentrically mounted on at least two eccentric shafts, each eccentric shaft is drivable for rotational movement about a respective eccentric axis, wherein the eccentric axes eccentric with respect to the central axis arranged and rotatable about the central axis.
  • At least two eccentric axes are provided, which are arranged eccentrically with respect to the genanten central axis of the adjusting device and in particular are arranged parallel to each other.
  • the arrangement of the fixed relative to each other eccentric axes can be rotated about the central axis, i. the arrangement of at least two eccentric axes is rotatable coaxially to the drive wheel, the electric motor and the camshaft, wherein the respective position of the eccentric axes is defined for example by a common carrier device.
  • Each eccentric axis is assigned a respective eccentric shaft.
  • Each eccentric shaft includes an eccentric portion (ie, a cam) and is drivable for rotational movement about the respective eccentric axis.
  • Said external gear which with said internal toothed Gear is engaged, is mounted on the at least two eccentric shafts, so that by the rotational movement of the eccentric shafts about the respective eccentric axis, the externally toothed gear can be driven to said (eccentric) circular motion about the central axis.
  • the required eccentricity of the externally toothed gear can be represented by the respective eccentric portion of the eccentric shafts, wherein the eccentric shafts associated with the eccentric shafts can jointly perform a rotational movement coaxial with the central axis.
  • the eccentric shafts which are rotatable about the eccentrically arranged eccentric axes, thus make it possible for the eccentric circular movement (with superimposed rotation) of the externally toothed toothed wheel to be attributed to a rotational movement about the central axis of the adjusting device, namely in the form of a rotation of said eccentric axes about the central axis , Therefore, the two inputs and the output of the adjusting gear can all be arranged coaxially to the central axis.
  • the externally toothed gear is mounted by means of a respective rolling bearing on the eccentric shafts.
  • the eccentric circular movement of the externally toothed gear and the torque transmission caused thereby can be represented with a particularly good efficiency.
  • the externally toothed gear can be supported by means of a respective sliding bearing on the eccentric shafts.
  • each eccentric shaft is rotatably mounted on a respective bearing journal - the so-called eccentric pin -, wherein the eccentric pins define said eccentric axes and are fastened to a common carrier device.
  • the eccentric shafts are designed in particular as hollow shafts, which are mounted on the inside of the eccentric pin.
  • the eccentric shafts may, for example, engage directly in the manner of a pin in a common carrier device and be rotatably mounted on the latter on the outside.
  • the eccentric shafts are in turn mounted on the eccentric pin by means of a respective further rolling bearing.
  • the efficiency of the adjusting gear is further increased, since thus for the movement of the externally toothed gear a rolling bearing can be provided.
  • the internally toothed gear is rotatably connected to the drive wheel and the arrangement of the plurality of eccentric axes (in particular the arrangement of the plurality of eccentric pins) is rotatably connected to the camshaft.
  • the internal gear forms a Input and the arrangement of the multiple eccentric axes forms the output of the actuating gear.
  • said eccentric shafts are drivable by means of the electric motor to a rotational movement about the respective eccentric axis.
  • the eccentric shafts carrying the externally toothed gear are assigned to an input of the adjusting gear.
  • the eccentric shafts are drivable to a mutually synchronous rotational movement about the respective eccentric axis in order to effect the desired circular movement of the externally toothed gear.
  • each eccentric shaft with a respective coupling gear rotatably connected (in particular integrally formed).
  • the electric motor can drive a motor pinion, which is arranged coaxially to the central axis of the adjusting device and meshes with the coupling gears directly or via at least one common intermediate gear.
  • the eccentric bearing of the eccentric shafts can thus be attributed to a drive coaxial with the central axis.
  • the coupling gears and the intermediate gear (if present) in each position of the adjusting gear are arranged radially completely within the toothing of the externally toothed gear.
  • the coupling gears and possibly the intermediate gear are arranged completely within an imaginary to the central axis concentric cylinder jacket, wherein the cylinder shell is in each gear position completely within the teeth of the external gear, so that the tooth width of the external gear and also the tooth width of the internally toothed Gear can continue axially via the coupling gears and the intermediate gear.
  • the coupling gears or the intermediate gear can thus be arranged axially completely or partially within the externally toothed gear and the internally toothed gear. This shortens the axial length of the adjusting gear.
  • two, three or four eccentric shafts are provided, which are rotatably driven about a respective eccentric axis to drive the externally toothed gear, wherein the eccentric axes are preferably distributed in a uniform angular pitch about the central axis.
  • adjusting device is used to Relatiwer too a camshaft 11 of an internal combustion engine, not shown with respect to a camshaft 11 coaxially driving drive wheel 13, which is drivingly coupled for example via a chain drive, not shown, with a crankshaft of the internal combustion engine.
  • the drive wheel 13 and the camshaft 11 are arranged coaxially with respect to a central axis A of the adjusting device.
  • the drive wheel 13 is coupled to the camshaft 11 via a control gear 15, which can be driven by means of an electric motor 17 in order to adjust the phase position of the camshaft 11 relative to the drive wheel 13.
  • the adjusting gear 15 comprises an internally toothed gear 19 which is rotatably supported via a rolling bearing 21 on a support means 23 of the adjusting gear 15 coaxial with the central axis A.
  • the internal gear 19 is in engagement with an externally toothed gear 25.
  • the externally toothed gear 25 is arranged slightly eccentric with respect to the central axis A, and it is in this slightly eccentric arrangement to a circular motion about the central axis A drivable.
  • the number of teeth difference between the internal gear 19 and the external gear 25 is very small.
  • the externally toothed gear 25 has only one, two, three, four or five teeth less than the internally toothed Gear 19. Accordingly - as in particular from Fig. 3 it can be seen - the eccentricity of the externally toothed gear 25 with respect to the central axis A very low. In the upper area of Fig. 3 the externally toothed gear 25 is engaged with the internal gear 19, while in the lower region of Fig. 3 the externally toothed gear 25 is just out of engagement with the internal gear 19.
  • Fig. 3 shows that the externally toothed gear 25 is mounted on a respective rolling bearing 27 on two eccentric shafts 29.
  • Each of the two eccentric shafts 29 is in turn supported by a rolling bearing 31 on a respective eccentric pin 33 and rotatable about a respective eccentric axis B.
  • the two eccentric pins 33 and thus the two eccentric axes B are arranged eccentrically with respect to the central axis A.
  • the two eccentric pins 33 extend parallel to each other, and they are attached to the support means 23, so that the two eccentric pins 33 and thus the two eccentric axes B are rotatable about the central axis A in a fixed relative position.
  • the eccentricity of the respective outer periphery of the eccentric shafts 29 with respect to the respective eccentric axis B corresponds to the eccentricity of the externally toothed gear 25 with respect to the central axis A.
  • the eccentricity of the eccentric axes B with respect to the central axis A is significantly greater than the eccentricity of the externally toothed gear 25 with respect to the central axis A.
  • the central axis A and the eccentric axes B are within the pitch circle of the externally toothed gear 25th
  • each eccentric shaft 29 rotatably connected to a respective coupling gear 34, that is formed in one piece.
  • Fig. 2 It is shown that the two coupling gears 34 via a common intermediate gear 35 with a motor pinion 37 are engaged.
  • the intermediate gear 35 is rotatably mounted on a bearing journal 36, which is aligned parallel to the eccentric 33 and also secured to the support means 23 ( Fig. 5 ).
  • Screw 39 shown by the actuating gear 15, by means of the support means 23, fixedly connected to a flange 24 of the camshaft 11.
  • One of the screws 39 passes coaxially through the bearing pin 36 and screwed this bearing pin 36 via the support means 23 with the camshaft flange 24th
  • the motor pinion 37 is driven by the electric motor 17 via a motor shaft 41 ( Fig. 4 and 5 ).
  • the intermediate gear 35 is not mandatory; instead, the motor pinion 37 may also drive the two coupling gears 34 directly. In both cases, a synchronous drive of the two eccentric shafts 29 takes place through the motor pinion 37.
  • the actuating mechanism 15 forms a summing gear in order to be able to vary the phase position of the camshaft 11 relative to the drive wheel 13 by means of the electric motor 17.
  • the drive wheel 13 associated with internally toothed gear 19 forms a first input.
  • the motor gear 17 associated with the electric motor 17 forms a second input.
  • the eccentric 33 carrying and firmly connected to the camshaft flange 24 support means 23 forms an output of the adjusting gear 15th
  • the coupling gears 34 and the intermediate gear 35 may be made smaller such that they are disposed radially completely within the teeth of the external gear 25. In this way, a shortened axial length of the adjusting gear 15 can be achieved, namely when the externally toothed gear 25 and accordingly the internally toothed gear 19, the coupling gears 34 and the intermediate gear 35 axially partially or completely overlap.
