Background

With the development of gas engine technology, more and more engine manufacturers are beginning to design and develop gas engines on the basis of diesel engines. Due to the particularity of the combustion mode of the diesel engine, an air inlet passage in the cylinder head of the engine is required to organize the air flow to generate a sufficient swirl ratio in the process of air intake. However, gas engines do not require excessive swirl, but rather, require more tumble flows that organize the gas flow to create a center axis of rotation perpendicular to the center axis of the liner. That is, for a gas engine, the purpose of optimizing combustion can only be achieved if sufficient tumble flow is effectively generated.

For a four-valve engine, in the prior art scheme, the area below a cylinder cover in the middle of two intake valves is an area where high-speed jets flowing out through two intake passage branches collide with each other, that is, two intake airflows interfere with each other in the area, and a synthesized high-speed jet area swings back and forth, so that the flow energy of the intake airflows is greatly lost, and at the end of a compression stroke, the large-scale airflow is broken into small-scale airflow, so that turbulent kinetic energy is at a lower level, and the effect of accelerating combustion is difficult to achieve.

Therefore, how to avoid the mutual interference of the intake air flows and maintain the intake energy is a technical problem that needs to be solved by those skilled in the art at present.

Disclosure of Invention

In view of the above, the present invention provides a cylinder head and a gas engine, and the cylinder head and the gas engine are based on the existing diesel engine cylinder head structure, and through structural improvement, the cylinder head can avoid air flow interference in the middle area of two intake valves, maintain high intake energy, and facilitate maintaining large-scale tumble motion, thereby facilitating rapid combustion of the gas engine.

In order to achieve the purpose, the invention provides the following technical scheme:

a cylinder cover comprises at least two air inlet throats and at least two exhaust throats, a first flow guide bulge protruding downwards is arranged on the bottom surface of the cylinder cover between every two adjacent air inlet throats, and a second flow guide bulge protruding downwards is arranged on the bottom surface of the cylinder cover between every two adjacent exhaust throats.

Preferably, each exhaust throat is connected with a corresponding branch exhaust passage, the cooling water jacket between two adjacent branch exhaust passages comprises a water jacket extension part extending towards the direction of the second diversion protrusion, and the inner peripheral wall surface of each exhaust throat is provided with a sealing surface directly contacting with the exhaust valve.

Preferably, the sealing surface is a heat-treated sealing surface subjected to quenching treatment.

Preferably, the extending direction of the projection of the first flow guide protrusion on the bottom surface of the cylinder cover is perpendicular to the central connecting line direction of two adjacent air inlet throats or forms an acute included angle.

Preferably, the length of the projection of the first flow guide protrusion on the bottom surface of the cylinder cover in the extending direction is 0.8-1.2 times of the diameter of the air inlet throat.

Preferably, the height of the first flow guide protrusion protruding relative to the bottom surface of the cylinder cover is 0.7-1.3 times of the full lift of the inlet valve.

Preferably, the bottom hole edge of the air inlet throat is provided with an eccentric chamfer, and the rotation center of the eccentric chamfer is arranged in a manner of deviating from the center of the air inlet throat towards the direction close to the exhaust throat.

Preferably, a connecting line of a rotation center of the eccentric chamfer and the center of the air inlet throat at which the rotation center is located is an eccentric chamfer direction line, and an included angle between the eccentric chamfer direction line and a vertical direction line of the crankshaft is 20-90 degrees.

Preferably, the number of the air inlet throats is two, and the rotation center of the eccentric chamfer is arranged in a manner of deviating from the center of the air inlet throats towards the direction far away from the first flow guide bulge.

The cylinder cover provided by the invention comprises at least two air inlet throats and at least two exhaust throats, wherein a first flow guide bulge protruding downwards is arranged on the bottom surface of the cylinder cover between every two adjacent air inlet throats, and a second flow guide bulge protruding downwards is arranged on the bottom surface of the cylinder cover between every two adjacent exhaust throats. The first flow guide protrusion can avoid the collision of high-speed air inlet jet flows flowing out of two adjacent air inlet throats, so that most of air inlet airflow flows to the combustion chamber from other parts of the circumferential direction of the air inlet throats, and the air inlet energy can be maintained. For the cylinder cover with two air inlet throat openings, after air inlet airflow is injected into a combustion chamber from other directions, two large-scale tumble motions with opposite rotation directions can be formed in the cylinder under the guiding action of the first flow guide protrusion, so that the improvement of turbulent kinetic energy at the last stage of compression is facilitated, and the rapid combustion of a gas engine is facilitated. Meanwhile, the second flow guide convex features between the exhaust valves can also play a role in maintaining tumble flow, and the circulation capacity of the exhaust passage can be increased, so that the pumping loss is reduced, and the heat efficiency is improved.

The invention also provides a gas engine comprising the cylinder cover. The derivation process of the beneficial effects generated by the gas engine is substantially similar to the derivation process of the beneficial effects brought by the cylinder cover, and therefore, the description is omitted.

The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

Referring to fig. 1 to 4, fig. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of a cylinder head according to an embodiment of the present invention; FIG. 2 is a schematic structural view of a branched exhaust passage and a cooling jacket of a cylinder head according to an embodiment of the present invention; FIG. 3 is an enlarged schematic view of an exhaust throat and cooling jacket in an embodiment of the present invention; FIG. 4 is a schematic diagram illustrating an arrangement direction of the eccentric chamfers in an embodiment of the present invention.

The invention provides a cylinder cover which comprises at least two air inlet throats 1 and at least two exhaust throats 2, wherein a first flow guide bulge 3 protruding downwards is arranged on a bottom surface 5 of the cylinder cover between every two adjacent air inlet throats 1, and a second flow guide bulge 4 protruding downwards is arranged on the bottom surface 5 of the cylinder cover between every two adjacent exhaust throats 2. The first flow guide protrusion 3 can avoid the collision of high-speed air inlet jet flows flowing out of two adjacent air inlet throats 1, so that most of air inlet airflow flows to the combustion chamber from other parts of the circumferential direction of the air inlet throats 1, and the air inlet energy is maintained. For the cylinder cover with two air inlet throats 1, after air flow is injected into a combustion chamber from other directions, two large-scale tumble motions with opposite rotation directions can be formed in the cylinder under the guiding action of the first flow guide protrusion 3, so that the improvement of turbulent kinetic energy at the last stage of compression is facilitated, and the rapid combustion of a gas engine is facilitated. Meanwhile, the second flow guide bulge 4 between the exhaust valves 7 can also play a role in maintaining tumble flow, and the circulation capacity of the exhaust passage can be increased, so that the pumping loss is reduced, and the heat efficiency is improved.

Preferably, each exhaust throat 2 is connected with a corresponding branch exhaust passage 8, the temperature of the cylinder cover between the two exhaust valves 7 is the highest, and after the characteristics of the second flow guide protrusion 4 are superposed, the risk of heat cracking of the cylinder cover is brought. Therefore, the cooling water jacket 6 between the two branched intake passages 8 needs to be extended further downward. However, the amount of downward movement of the cooling jacket 6 cannot be too large due to the exhaust valve seat structure, limiting the further downward extension of the cooling jacket 6. Therefore, the scheme of the invention adopts the non-exhaust valve seat ring, the sealing surface 21 matched with the exhaust valve 7 is processed on the inner ring of the exhaust throat 2 of the cylinder cover, and the heat treatment process is carried out to enhance the wear resistance, so that the exhaust valve 7 can be directly contacted and seated with the exhaust throat 2 of the cylinder cover. With this arrangement, the cooling water jacket 6 between the two adjacent branch intake passages 8 can be provided with the water jacket extension portion 61 extending further downward, as shown in fig. 3, thereby reducing the risk of head cracking.

More preferably, the seal surface 21 is a heat-treated seal surface subjected to quenching treatment.

Preferably, the extending direction of the projection of the first flow guide protrusion 3 on the bottom surface 5 of the cylinder cover is perpendicular to the central connecting line direction of two adjacent air inlet throats 1 or forms an acute angle, and the range of the acute angle can be 70-90 degrees or 80-90 degrees. The first flow guide bulges 3 are preferably arranged in a vertical arrangement mode in the scheme. In addition, the arrangement of the second flow guide protrusions 4 is similar to that of the first flow guide protrusions 3, and is not described herein again.

Preferably, the length of the first guide projection 3 in the extending direction of the projection on the cylinder head bottom surface 5 (length B shown in fig. 1) is 0.8 to 1.2 times the diameter of the intake throat 1 (diameter D shown in fig. 1), that is, B is (0.8 to 1.2) D.

Preferably, the height (height C shown in fig. 2) of the first guide protrusion 3 protruding from the cylinder head bottom surface 5 is 0.7 to 1.3 times of the full lift (denoted as LF) of the intake valve, that is, C is (0.7 to 1.3) LF.

Preferably, the bottom hole edge of the inlet throat 1 is provided with an eccentric chamfer 9, and the rotation center of the eccentric chamfer 9 is arranged in a deviation way relative to the center of the inlet throat 1 towards the direction close to the exhaust throat 2, so that the width of an annular gap formed between the inlet valve and the bottom hole of the inlet throat 1 when the inlet valve is opened is larger at one side close to the exhaust throat 2, and most of airflow is guided to flow towards the exhaust side. When the air inflow enters the cylinder, the eccentric chamfer 9 can guide the air flow to move towards the exhaust throat 2, so that large-scale tumble motion can be formed in the cylinder, small-scale turbulence can be generated by crushing at the last stage of compression, and combustion is accelerated.

Preferably, a connecting line of the rotation center of the eccentric chamfer 9 and the center of the air inlet throat 1 where the eccentric chamfer is located is an eccentric chamfer direction line 10, and as shown in fig. 4, an included angle theta between the eccentric chamfer direction line 10 and a crankshaft vertical direction line 11 is 20-90 degrees. The crankshaft vertical direction line 11 is a direction line perpendicular to the extension direction of the crankshaft axis.

Preferably, the number of the inlet throats 1 is two, the rotation center of the eccentric chamfer 9 is arranged in a deviating way towards the direction far away from the first flow guide protrusion 3 relative to the center of the inlet throats 1, so that the inlet airflows of the two inlet throats 1 are injected into the cylinder towards the direction far away from each other, and two large-scale tumble motions can be formed under the further guiding action of the inner wall of the cylinder and the concave pits of the piston, which is also beneficial to maintaining the inlet energy.

The invention also provides a gas engine comprising the cylinder cover. The derivation process of the beneficial effects generated by the gas engine is substantially similar to the derivation process of the beneficial effects brought by the cylinder cover, and therefore, the description is omitted.
