Definitions
- the present invention relates to the regulation of internal combustion engines and more particularly to the measurement of the pressure in the combustion chamber of these engines.
- the object of the present invention is to determine reliably and at a contained cost the internal pressure in the combustion chamber.
- the invention provides an internal combustion engine spark plug essentially comprising a body intended to be fixed on the engine and a core extending in an elongation direction, core connected to the body and intended to extend inside the combustion chamber of the engine, as well as measuring means intended to determine the internal pressure in the combustion chamber by displacement of the core under the effect of said pressure, this spark plug being equipped with means which allow to quantify the displacement of the core relative to the cylinder head of the engine on which the spark plug is located.
- the pressure inside the combustion chamber tends to drive out (repel) the soul. Consequently, the invention makes it possible to deduce the pressure inside the combustion chamber from the relative displacement of the core of the spark plug relative to the cylinder head, without having to pierce the engine block, by integrating the sensor. by candle.
- the means intended to allow the detection of the displacement of the core of the spark plug relative to the cylinder head of the engine is a flange secured to said cylinder head, either not screwed, or by welding, or by any equivalent means known.
- the measuring means are placed between said flange and a part secured to the core, so as to best integrate the measuring assembly with the spark plug.
- the measuring means comprise a tubular piezoelectric element extending around the core in the direction of elongation between a first and a second end, said tubular piezoelectric element being connected to the core at the first end and to the cylinder head via the flange at the second end.
- a piezoelectric element makes it possible to transform a displacement into a corresponding electrical signal with great precision for displacements of small amplitude, as in the case of the present invention
- the invention further relates to a vehicle provided with a propellant assembly comprising, in addition to the spark plug:
- processing means for processing the information recorded by the measurement means, said processing means controlling the means injection according to the information collected by the measuring means during a combustion cycle.
- the processing means comprise a high frequency filter to suppress the information relating to the vibrations of the core with respect to the cylinder head.
- the displacement of the core with respect to the cylinder head depends in particular on the pressure in the combustion chamber, the fuel injection and the combustion.
- a filter cutting the frequencies substantially higher than the speed of rotation of the motor, for example above 200 Hz, one can reduce the effect of these disturbing elements for the measurement of pressure in the compression chamber.
- FIG. 1 illustrates in partial section a glow plug of the prior art mounted on an internal combustion engine cylinder head
- FIGs 2 and 3 show two variants, on another scale, of mounting the glow plug on a cylinder head
- Figure 1 illustrates a motor propulsion unit 1 comprising a spark plug 20, fuel injection means 130, a electronic computer 4 and an engine block 110 of an internal combustion engine comprising in particular a cylinder head 5 and a combustion chamber 9.
- the spark plug 20 is here constituted by a diesel engine glow plug extending in an elongation direction 11 and coming to be housed in an orifice 3 made for this purpose in the cylinder head 5.
- the spark plug 20 comprises a body 27, a core 29 extending inside the body and an insulating sealing ring 12 disposed between the body 27 and the core 29, generally constituted by a seal made of elastomeric material.
- the core 29 includes an electrical resistance 18 protected by a sheath
- the spark plug 20 is further provided with a displacement sensor 200 consisting of a sensitive element 45 made of piezo-ceramic interposed between two contact rings 70a and 70b and electrically isolated from the core 29 and from the body 27 via insulating rings 90a, 90b.
- the sensitive element 45, the contact rings 70a, 70b and the insulating rings 90a, 90b are tubular, so that they are traversed by the current adductor 40 and the rod 14 which they surround locally.
- the sensor 200 is connected, at a first end 200a in the direction of elongation 11, to the core 29 by means of a fixing nut 7 and at the other end 200b in the direction of elongation 11 at body 27 by means of a spacer 6 bearing on this body 27, said insulating rings 90a, 90b being interposed for one of them between the contact ring 70a and the nut 7, and for the other between the contact ring 70b and the spacer 6.
- the computer 4 is electrically connected to the contact rings 70a, 70b between which it measures the voltage difference on the one hand and to the injection means 130, in order to control the quantity of fuel injected into the combustion chamber 9 and the instant at which it is injected on the other hand.
- the pressure increases in the combustion chamber 9 and the glow plug 20 is subjected to it. This pressure tends to "drive” the candle outward.
- the core 29 and in particular the sheath 10, although maintained relative to the body 27 move slightly by a few microns relative to said body 27, which is integral with the cylinder head 5, depending on the pressure inside the combustion chamber.
- the computer 4 includes signal processing means to remove the parasitic information.
- the computer comprises a high frequency filter to suppress the variations in voltages between the contact rings 70a, 70b relating to the vibrations of the core with respect to the body whose frequency is for example greater than 200 hertz.
- FIG. 2 A preferred embodiment is shown in Figure 2.
- the spacer 6 is replaced here by a flange 50 in the shape of a stirrup protruding from the rear of the cylinder head 5 to serve, via its transverse wall 51, as a fixed bearing surface in position relative to the cylinder head for the sensor. pressure / displacement 55.
- This flange 50 added to the glow plug 20 of the prior art is integral with the cylinder head 5 and allows for a mechanical connection between the latter and the spark plug 20 on the one hand and to exercise a pressure on the displacement sensor 55 via its transverse wall 51 once the assembly has been carried out on the other hand.
- the rear end 29a of the central core 29 has, beyond the body 27, at the axial end opposite to the combustion chamber 9 (and therefore in the direction of elongation 11), a bearing surface 57 for the sensor 55, which is therefore interposed between the surfaces 51 and 57, so that the pressure variations in the chamber 9 are transmitted to the core 29 and therefore to the sensor 55, via the surface 57, the flange 50 being fixed relative to the cylinder head 5.
- the flange 50 makes it possible to dispense with the nut 7 shown in FIG. 1.
- the sensor 55 is pressurized by the increase in pressure in the chamber 9 while in the embodiment in FIG. 1, the increase in the pressure of the chamber 9 will generate relaxation of the measurement chain.
- the flange 50 provides a direct mechanical connection between the cylinder head and the central core 29, in order to overcome any play that could present the body 27 screwed onto the cylinder head. By thus eliminating this play, the sensor 55 is better able to determine the pressure prevailing in the chamber 9.
- the flange 50 makes it possible to eliminate from the measurement the vibrations that the spark plug 20 could present with respect to the cylinder head 5, since the relative movement is here evaluated directly between the cylinder head and the core 29 of the candle 20 and no longer between the core 29 and the body 27.
- flange 50 has been shown in the manner of a bell-shaped stirrup, here in inverted “U” section, other shapes could have been provided.
- the flange 50 could be welded, or even manufactured directly from material (for example by molding), with the cylinder head 5.
- This figure shows the computer 4 allowing, from the potential difference measured at the terminals of the rings 21a and 21b contact, manage the fuel injection means 130.
- the contact rings 21a and 21b are isolated from the rest of the installation through the insulating rings 23a and 23b.
- the body 27 of the glow plug 20 is again screwed into the threaded orifice 3 of the cylinder head 5 and the rear part 29a of the central core 29 is linked to the transverse support bar 57.
- the transverse bar 57 is placed above the flange 60, which is fixed (for example by welding, at 61) relative to the cylinder head).
- the transverse wall 63 of the flange extends perpendicular to the direction of elongation 11, so as to have a fixed bearing surface, 63a, for the pressure sensor 65, which is interposed between the flange (transverse wall 63) and the support bar 57, subjected to the pressure of the nut 67 which therefore pulls on the core 29, in the direction 11, to exert the appropriate reference pressure on the sensor.
- a spark plug of spark ignition engine also comprising a body intended to be fixed on a cylinder head and a core extending inside the body (between which a spark is generated), measuring means according to the invention can be placed between the body and the soul to raise their relative displacement.
- the spacer 6 can be omitted if the shape of the spark plug 20 lends itself to direct mounting of the sensor 200 on the body 27 of the spark plug.
