A second exhaust poppet valve 9 is provided in a portion of a combustion chamber expanded out of a main cylinder 1 . A valve cover 7 reciprocates within a sub-cylinder 4 and covers a bottom surface of the second exhaust poppet valve 9 . A first exhaust valve 10 and an intake poppet valve 11 are provided so as to face an upper surface of a piston 2 . After the second exhaust poppet valve 9 is opened and hot high-pressure burned gas starts to flow away, the first exhaust poppet valve 10 is opened. As a result, the temperature of the first exhaust poppet valve 10 is reduced and the compression ratio can be increased. Then, a work amount of the piston is increased. The increased work amount compensates an amount of cooling loss due to increasing a surface area of the combustion chamber.

Номер: US20130015625A1
Принадлежит: Individual

An eccentricity tolerant valve stem seal assembly includes an elastomeric seal having an upper metal retainer extending down and within an upper seal portion which has an inwardly directed sealing lip for contacting a valve stem. There are also a flexible middle and a lower seal portions. The lower seal portion is connected to a lower metal seal retainer that is disposed up to a lower edge of the middle seal portion. The flexible middle seal portion allows the upper seal portion to flex from an eccentric valve stem without losing the sealing function of the sealing lip. In cooperation with the above described structure, a separate cover may be in a tight tolerance fit with the lower seal retainer over top of the eccentricity tolerant valve stem seal, in order to limit axial displacement of the upper portion of the seal due to high manifold pressure.

Nitrided Engine Valve with HVOF Coating

Номер: US20160097459A1
Принадлежит: Caterpillar Inc

A valve for use in an internal combustion engine is disclosed. The valve includes a stem connected to a fillet disposed between the stem and a seat face. A thermal spray technique, such as a high velocity oxy fuel coating spray (HVOF) is applied to the seat face. A nitriding treatment that includes a nitrogen source, which may or may not contain carbon, and heat may be applied after the HVOF spray. The heat allows the nitrogen and/or carbon to penetrate the HVOF layer and the seat face to form a compound zone. The compound zone enhances the wear resistance of the surface during engine operation.
