Electromagnetic Valve Actuator And Valve Guide Having Reduced Temperature Sensitivity
US Patent:
7980209, Jul 19, 2011
Filed:
May 20, 2008

Assignee:
Ford Global Technologies, LLC - Dearborn MI
International Classification:
F01L 9/04
US Classification:
123 9011, 2988841, 25112916, 335256, 335262
Abstract:
An internal combustion engine includes an electromagnetic valve actuator having an armature between upper and lower electromagnets with a stem extending through one electromagnet and guided by a bushing with increased clearance about at least a portion of the inner circumference in at least a middle portion of the bushing to reduce oil shear length and associated viscous friction in the actuator. A two-piece intake/exhaust valve guide includes a lower half with a stepped outer diameter cooperating with a counter-bored hole in the cylinder head to provide a positive stop. The upper and lower halves of the valve guide have increased clearance relative to the valve stem around at least a portion of the inner circumference to reduce oil shear length and associated viscous friction. Reducing viscous friction of the actuator and associated valve guide improves system robustness by decreasing the system sensitivity to temperature.

Abstract:
A hydraulic damper for an automotive engine electromechanical cylinder valve is provided. The hydraulic damper includes an inner piston which is slidably mounted within an outer piston. The outer piston is slidably mounted within an interior hydraulic filled cavity of a damper body. Movement of the valve body along extreme positions causes the inner piston to move the outer piston within the interior cavity to effectuate hydraulic damping of the valve body.

B60T 7/12
US Classification:
701084000, 701101000
Abstract:
A method for controlling engine torque during disruption of a primary communication link between an engine control unit and a valve control unit in an engine is provided. The method includes determining disruption of the primary communication link between the engine control unit and the valve control unit, operating a preset valve timing schedule upon determination of disruption of the communication link between the engine control unit and the valve control unit; and sending a status message from the valve control unit to the engine control unit regarding the operational status of the valve control unit.
