Disclosure of Invention

Problems to be solved by the invention

In many cases, the outer peripheral portion of the piston top surface located radially outside the cavity is a simple plane, i.e., a flat surface. However, the results of intensive studies by the present inventors have revealed that: when the surface is such a plane, the air in the space above the surface cannot be efficiently used, which is disadvantageous in suppressing smoke.

In view of the above circumstances, the present disclosure provides a combustion chamber structure of a direct injection internal combustion engine capable of effectively suppressing smoke.

Means for solving the problems

In accordance with one aspect of the present disclosure,

a cavity concavely provided at a central portion of the top surface of the piston, an

An outer peripheral portion of the piston top surface located radially outside the cavity;

In the combustion chamber structure of the direct injection internal combustion engine, the 1 st and 2 nd tapered surface portions may be formed as follows: when the piston descends and the rich burn zone moves outward in the radial direction in sequence along the 1 st tapered surface portion and the 2 nd tapered surface portion, the longitudinal swirl flow moves along with the movement of the rich burn zone.

Detailed Description

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present disclosure will be described with reference to the drawings. Note that the present disclosure is not limited to the following embodiments.

The combustion chamber structure of the present embodiment is applied to a diesel engine as a representative example of a direct injection internal combustion engine. Engines are used for vehicles, and are used as vehicle power sources for large vehicles such as trucks in particular. However, the type, application, and the like of the internal combustion engine and the vehicle are not limited to these. For example, the vehicle may be a small vehicle such as a passenger car, and the engine may be a gasoline engine.

As shown in fig. 2, the combustion chamber structure 1 of the present embodiment includes: a piston 2; a cylinder 3 which can raise and lower the piston 2 and coaxially accommodates the same; a cylinder head 4 that closes an upper end opening of the cylinder 3; a plurality of (three in the present embodiment, only one shown) piston rings 5 attached to the outer peripheral surface of the piston 2; and a combustion chamber 6 which is a closed space defined by the above members. Further, as shown in fig. 1, the combustion chamber structure 1 includes an injector 7, and the injector 7 injects fuel into a combustion chamber 6 attached to the cylinder head 4.

As shown in fig. 1, the piston 2 is formed to be substantially axisymmetrical with respect to a piston center axis C. The axial direction, the radial direction, and the circumferential direction with reference to the piston center axis C are simply referred to as the axial direction, the radial direction, and the circumferential direction, unless otherwise specified. The piston 2 has a top surface (piston top surface) 8 and an outer peripheral surface 9. The outer circumferential surface 9 is formed with a plurality of (three in the present embodiment) ring grooves 10 for fitting the piston ring 5.

The piston 2 has a cavity 11 recessed in the central portion of the top surface 8. The cavity 11 of the present embodiment is a concave cavity type cavity, and has a shape in which an upper inlet side is closed with respect to a lower bottom side. The cavity 11 is bounded by a cavity inner wall 30. The cavity inner wall 30 includes: a lip portion 12 which defines an inlet portion of the cavity 11, is continuously connected with the top surface 8, and protrudes to the radially inner side; a side wall portion 13 continuously connected to the lip portion 12 and expanded in diameter in an undercut (undercut) shape below the lip portion 12; and a bottom wall portion 14 continuously connected to the side wall portion 13. The connecting position (or boundary position) between top surface 8 and lip portion 12 is denoted by a, the connecting position between lip portion 12 and side wall portion 13 is denoted by b, and the connecting position between side wall portion 13 and bottom wall portion 14 is denoted by c.

The cross-sectional shape of the lip portion 12 is formed in an arc shape having a curvature radius R1, and the cross-sectional shape of the side wall portion 13 is also formed in an arc shape having a curvature radius R2. R1 is less than R2. The cross-sectional shape of the lip 12 may be a shape in which a straight line is interposed between circular arcs. The sectional shape of the bottom wall portion 14 is a peak shape. The bottom wall portion 14 has a slope portion 16 that gradually becomes higher as it approaches the piston center axis C. The inclined surface portion 16 extends from a connecting position C of the side wall portion 13 and the bottom wall portion 14 to a vertex position d of the bottom wall portion 14 on the piston center axis C.

The slope portion 16 includes a 1 st curved surface portion 31 and a 2 nd curved surface portion 32, the 1 st curved surface portion 31 being located radially outward of the slope portion 16, the 2 nd curved surface portion 32 being continuously connected to the 1 st curved surface portion 31 and being located radially inward of the 1 st curved surface portion 31. The connection position of the 1 st curved surface portion 31 and the 2 nd curved surface portion 32 is denoted by e. The 1 st curved surface portion 31 is formed in an arc shape in cross section having a center of the 1 st radius of curvature R3 or a base point S3 above the bottom wall portion 14 or the inclined surface portion 16. On the other hand, the 2 nd curved surface portion 32 is formed in an arc shape in cross section having a center of the 2 nd radius of curvature R4 or a base point S4 below the bottom wall portion 14 or the inclined surface portion 16. Therefore, the 1 st curved surface portion 31 and the 2 nd curved surface portion 32 have, in a macroscopic view, an "S" shaped cross-sectional shape as a whole, specifically, a cross-sectional shape in which arcs opposite to each other are connected at the connection position e.

Note that the length and orientation of the radius of curvature and the center position of the radius of curvature are only schematically shown in the drawings, and are not accurate.

In the case of the present embodiment, the 2 nd radius of curvature R4 is larger than the 1 st radius of curvature R3. The 1 st curved surface portion 31 is located at the outermost side in the radial direction of the inclined surface portion 16, and is directly and continuously connected to the side wall portion 13 at the connection position c. The 2 nd curved surface portion 32 extends from the connecting position e with the 1 st curved surface portion 31 to the apex position d of the bottom wall portion 14, that is, the entire inclined surface portion 16 or the bottom wall portion 14 except for the portion of the 1 st curved surface portion 31 is the 2 nd curved surface portion 32.

The term "continuously connected" means a smooth connection mode in which steps or projections and depressions are not formed at the connection positions as much as possible. By performing such smooth connection, stagnation of gas in the combustion chamber at the connection position can be suppressed, the flow can be made active, and combustion can be performed satisfactorily.

A cooling passage 17 through which oil for cooling the piston 2 flows is formed in the piston 2 located radially outward of the side wall portion 13. The cooling passage 17 is provided in a ring shape surrounding the cavity 11. Oil ejected upward from the lower side of the piston 2 toward the piston 2 by an oil jet (not shown) is introduced into the cooling passage 17, and an oil outlet hole 18 for discharging the introduced oil is formed so as to penetrate between the cooling passage 17 and a lower surface 19 of the piston 2.

The top surface 8 located radially outside the cavity 11 constitutes an outer peripheral portion 20 of the top surface 8. Specifically, the top surface outer peripheral portion 20 is a portion of the top surface 8 located radially outward of a boundary position a between the top surface 8 and the lip 12.

The top surface peripheral portion 20 includes: 1 st conical surface portion 21 continuously connected to lip portion 12, radially outward of lip portion 12; and a 2 nd tapered surface portion 22 connected to the 1 st tapered surface portion 21 and located radially outward thereof. The top surface outer peripheral portion 20 of the present embodiment further includes a flat surface portion 23, and the flat surface portion 23 is connected to the 2 nd tapered surface portion 22 and positioned radially outward thereof.

The 1 st tapered surface portion 21 is formed of a tapered surface inclined at a 1 st inclination angle θ 1 with respect to a virtual plane f perpendicular to the piston center axis C. Similarly, the 2 nd tapered surface portion 22 is formed of a tapered surface inclined at the 2 nd inclination angle θ 2 with respect to the virtual plane f perpendicular to the piston center axis C. The 2 nd inclination angle θ 2 is larger than the 1 st inclination angle θ 1, and thus, the 2 nd tapered surface part 22 has a larger inclination angle θ 2 than the 1 st tapered surface part 21. The 1 st tapered surface portion 21 and the 2 nd tapered surface portion 22 are tapered surfaces whose heights become higher as going radially outward. Therefore, the inclination angle of the tapered surface portion becomes gradually larger toward the radially outer side, and the 1 st tapered surface portion 21 and the 2 nd tapered surface portion 22 are formed into a two-step taper shape.

The 1 st inclination angle θ 1 has a value slightly larger than zero, for example, about 10 °. The 2 nd inclination angle θ 2 has a value smaller than 90 °, for example, about 30 °.

On the other hand, the flat surface portion 23 is formed by a plane or flat surface perpendicular to the piston center axis C. The flat surface portion 23 extends radially outward to a position of the outer peripheral surface 9. The width of the flat surface portion 23 in the radial direction is set to be about the same as the total width of the 1 st tapered surface portion 21 and the 2 nd tapered surface portion 22.

As shown in fig. 1, the injector 7 is disposed coaxially with the piston center axis C, i.e., the cylinder center axis. Further, as indicated by an arrow g, the injector 7 is configured and oriented so as to inject fuel toward the top of the lip 12, i.e., the radially innermost portion, when the piston 2 is positioned at or near the compression top dead center. Further, the fuel may be injected slightly below the top of lip 12.

Next, the operation and effects of the present embodiment will be described.

Fig. 2 shows the inside of the combustion chamber 6 at 1 st specific timing (for example, 15 ° ca after compression top dead center (ATDC)) when the piston 2 is descending after fuel injection from the injector 7. Line h indicates the outer edge of the 1 st region a where the equivalence ratio of the gas in the combustion chamber 6 is not less than the 1 st value, and line i indicates the outer edge of the 2 nd region B where the equivalence ratio of the gas is not less than the 2 nd value. Here, the gas is a generic term for air or a mixture of air and fuel. The equivalence ratio refers to a mixing ratio or a mixing ratio of fuel and air, and when the mixing ratio is a stoichiometric air-fuel ratio, the equivalence ratio is 1, and the value of the equivalence ratio increases as the mixing ratio is on the fuel increase side (rich side). In the case of the illustrated example, the 1 st value is about 1, the 2 nd value is about 2, and the 2 nd region B is a relatively rich region compared to the 1 st region a. Further, the 2 nd region B is a region that appears to be most rich in combustion even in the entire combustion chamber 6. Therefore, the 2 nd region B is referred to as a rich region herein.

As understood from the drawing, the fuel injected radially outward and obliquely downward from the injector 7 hits the lip 12 and is branched or branched upward and downward. The fuel branched downward flows toward the side wall portion 13, and in the process, the fuel is mixed with the surrounding air to form a mixture. On the other hand, the fuel branched upward flows radially outward along the top surface outer peripheral portion 20, and in this process, the fuel is mixed with the surrounding air to form a mixed gas. In the illustrated timing, the rich region B covers the lip portion 12, and the 1 st tapered surface portion 21 and the side wall portion 13 located in the vicinity of the lip portion 12, and exists in the periphery thereof. Although ignition may occur at the illustrated timing, ignition is not considered to occur here for convenience of description.

The flow of fuel branched above the lip 12 is driven to generate a gas flow going radially outward on the top surface outer peripheral portion 20. The gas is peeled off when moving from lip portion 12 to 1 st tapered surface portion 21, and a vortex j in the longitudinal direction (or vertical direction) is generated. Since the rich region B coincides with the position of the swirl j, the richer air-fuel mixture in the rich region B is actively stirred and mixed by the swirl j together with the leaner air-fuel mixture or air located thereabove. This promotes the agitation and mixing of the fuel and the air, and improves the utilization rate of the air in the gap between the top surface outer peripheral portion 20 and the cylinder head 4, that is, the space above the top surface outer peripheral portion 20.

When the piston 2 further descends, the state shown in fig. 3 is obtained. Fig. 3 shows the internal state of the combustion chamber 6 at a 2 nd specific timing (for example, ATDC25 ° ca) later than the 1 st specific timing. The previously rich zone B around lip 12 expands further, above lip 12, to reach the 2 nd taper 22.

On the other hand, the swirl j moves radially outward with the movement of the rich zone B and reaches the 2 nd tapered surface portion 22 as in the rich zone B. In the movement of the rich burn region B, at least a portion of the swirl flow j is located within the rich burn region B. Therefore, the swirl j can be moved in accordance with or in conjunction with the movement of the rich burn area B from the 1 st tapered surface portion 21 to the 2 nd tapered surface portion 22, and the rich air-fuel mixture in the rich burn area B can be actively stirred and mixed with the lean air-fuel mixture or air above the rich burn area B by using the swirl j during the movement.

Therefore, the utilization rate of air in the gap between the top surface outer peripheral portion 20 and the cylinder head 4, that is, the space above the top surface outer peripheral portion 20 can be improved, and smoke can be effectively controlled.

As described above, in the present embodiment, the 1 st tapered surface portion 21 and the 2 nd tapered surface portion 22 are formed as follows: when the piston 2 moves down and the rich burn zone B moves radially outward in the order of the 1 st tapered surface portion 21 and the 2 nd tapered surface portion 22, the swirl j in the longitudinal direction moves along with the movement of the rich burn zone B. Therefore, the air utilization rate in the space above the top surface outer peripheral portion 20 can be improved, and the smoke can be effectively suppressed. Further, combustion can be improved, thereby improving fuel economy.

When the rich region B and the swirl j reach the 2 nd tapered surface portion 22, the inclination of the 2 nd tapered surface portion 22 is large, and therefore the movement of the rich region B and the swirl j to the outer side in the radial direction is not hindered so much, and these tend to stagnate. Therefore, it is possible to suppress the situation in which they reach the inner wall of the cylinder 3 and stay in the vicinity thereof. That is, if they stay in the vicinity of the cylinder inner wall, stirring and mixing become difficult, and usable air becomes limited, but if they stay in the vicinity of the 2 nd tapered surface portion 22, stirring and mixing can be performed in the vicinity of the radially central portion of the top surface outer peripheral portion 20, and therefore, the air around them can be effectively used, and the air utilization efficiency can be improved. Therefore, it is advantageous for suppressing smoke.

By providing the flat surface portion 23, the 2 nd tapered surface portion 22 can be spaced apart from the inner wall of the cylinder 3 by a predetermined distance, and stirring and mixing near the central portion can be promoted, so that the air utilization rate can be improved and smoke can be suppressed.

When the piston 2 further descends, the state shown in fig. 4 is obtained. Fig. 4 shows the internal state of the combustion chamber 6 at a 3 rd specific timing (for example, ATDC45 ° ca) later than the 2 nd specific timing.

In this stage, the thinning-out of the mixture inside the combustion chamber 6 progresses, the rich burn region B has disappeared, and only the 1 st region a (lean burn) having a smaller equivalence ratio exists.

The fuel branched downward from the lip portion 12 flows through the side wall portion 13 to the inclined surface portion 16, and is mixed with the surrounding air in the process to form the air-fuel mixture. The air-fuel mixture flows radially inward on the inclined surface portion 16 while gradually mixing with the surrounding air to be thin. This flow is roughly along the ramp portion 16 as indicated by reference numeral m.

The air-fuel mixture passes through the 1 st curved surface portion 31 and the 2 nd curved surface portion 32 in this order. However, since they have an S-shaped cross section as a whole, when the air-fuel mixture moves or shifts from the 1 st curved surface portion 31 to the 2 nd curved surface portion 32, a separation flow as indicated by reference numeral k is generated. That is, when the air-fuel mixture flowing along the 1 st curved surface portion 31 moves to the 2 nd curved surface portion 32, the curved shape of the 2 nd curved surface portion 32 is reversed, and therefore some of the air-fuel mixture may not follow the 2 nd curved surface portion 32 and may peel off. Thereby, an upward peeling flow k is generated on the downstream side immediately after the joining position e.

The stripping flow k of the mixture gas is well mixed with the air in the space n above the connection position e. Therefore, the air in the space n can be effectively used, and the air utilization rate can be improved. The stripping flow k also has an effect of stripping the fuel adhering to the slope 16 and mixing the fuel with air. Therefore, mixing of fuel and air can be promoted, thereby suppressing smoke.

Since the 2 nd radius of curvature R4 is greater than the 1 st radius of curvature R3, the curvature of the 1 st curved surface portion 31 is greater than the curvature of the 2 nd curved surface portion 32. Therefore, peeling at the connecting position e thereof can be promoted, and the peeling flow k is efficiently generated, thereby improving the air utilization rate.

Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described above in detail, the present invention may be implemented in other embodiments as follows.

(1) For example, the cavity may have a shape other than a concave cavity type, and may be a shallow disc type, a ring (annular) type, or the like.

(2) In the above embodiment, the 1 st curved surface portion 31 is directly connected to the side wall portion 13. However, a gentle curve portion that smoothly connects the arc-shaped cross sections of the first curved surface portion 31 and the side wall portion 13 may be provided between the first curved surface portion 31 and the side wall portion 13, and the first curved surface portion 31 may be indirectly connected to the side wall portion 13. The relief curve portion has the same curvature radius R3 as the 1 st curved surface portion 31 at the connecting position with the 1 st curved surface portion 31, has the same curvature radius R2 as the side wall portion 13 at the connecting position with the side wall portion 13, and has a curvature radius continuously changing from R3 to R2 from the connecting position with the 1 st curved surface portion 31 to the connecting position with the side wall portion 13 in a sectional view. Thus, there may be the following possibilities: the movement of the air-fuel mixture from the side wall portion 13 to the 1 st curved surface portion 31 can be smoothly performed.

(3) In the above embodiment, the 2 nd curved surface portion 32 extends from the connecting position e with the 1 st curved surface portion 31 to the apex position d of the bottom wall portion 14, and the entire inclined surface portion 16 or the entire bottom wall portion 14 excluding the portion of the 1 st curved surface portion 31 is the 2 nd curved surface portion 32. However, the 2 nd curved surface portion 32 may be located at least in the vicinity of the connection position e with the 1 st curved surface portion 31, and the 2 nd curved surface portion 32 is not necessarily provided at a position farther from the connection position e toward the piston center axis C side. Therefore, the shape of the bottom wall portion 14 at that portion, i.e., the top portion on the center side of the bottom wall portion 14, can be changed. For example, the top may be formed in a flat shape perpendicular to the piston center axis C.

The embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited to the above-described embodiments, and all modifications, applications, and equivalents included in the idea of the present disclosure defined by the claims are included in the present disclosure. Therefore, the present disclosure should not be construed restrictively, and can also be applied to any other techniques within the scope of the idea of the present disclosure.
