Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of engine ignition systems, in particular to a cylinder head structure with a dual ignition system. Background Art

[0002] The main function of the engine ignition system is to generate electric sparks through the spark plug at the end of the compression stroke of the gas engine to ignite the combustible mixture compressed in the cylinder, so that the engine can work normally and output power. The performance of the ignition system directly affects the power, fuel consumption and emission level of the engine. The ignition system is usually composed of a battery, a generator, an ignition coil, a distributor (or an electronic control unit) and a spark plug. These components work together to ensure that sufficient high voltage electricity is provided to the spark plug at the right time to achieve reliable ignition.

[0003] Most engines currently use a single ignition system. Single ignition combustion is limited by homogeneous combustion, which makes the engine mixture burn slowly, burn for a long time, have low combustion efficiency, emit high pollutants, and cannot achieve a high compression ratio. In addition, a spark plug may cause misfire and poor flame stability, making the engine unable to work.

[0004] The information disclosed in this background technology section is only intended to enhance the understanding of the overall background of the invention and should not be regarded as an acknowledgment or any form of suggestion that the information constitutes the prior art already known to a person skilled in the art. Summary of the invention

[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned objectives, the present invention provides a cylinder head structure with a dual ignition system, comprising: a cylinder head body, which is provided with a first spark plug mounting hole and a second spark plug mounting hole; a first ignition system, which comprises: a first spark plug, which is installed in the first spark plug mounting hole, and a second ignition system, which comprises: a second spark plug, which is installed in the second spark plug mounting hole of the cylinder head body.

[0007] In a preferred embodiment, the first spark plug is installed in a first spark plug mounting hole on the top of the cylinder head body; and the second spark plug is installed in a second spark plug mounting hole on the side of the cylinder head body.

[0008] In a preferred embodiment, the first spark plug and the second spark plug are arranged at an acute angle.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment, a pre-combustion chamber is provided at the front end of the second spark plug mounting hole, and the pre-combustion chamber is connected to the cylinder hole through an injection channel.

[0010] In a preferred embodiment, the number of the injection channels is one or more.

[0011] In a preferred embodiment, there are three injection channels.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the cylinder head structure with a dual ignition system according to the present invention has the following beneficial effects: the cylinder head structure with a dual ignition system partially breaks the limitation of homogeneous combustion by setting the first ignition system and the second ignition system for igniting the mixed gas at different positions of the cylinder bore, so that the engine mixed gas burns quickly, shortens the combustion time, improves the combustion efficiency, enables the engine to achieve a higher compression ratio, and correspondingly reduces the emission of pollutants; at the same time, the stability of the flame is improved, the misfire that may be caused by a spark plug is avoided, and the engine maintains stable operation. Moreover, a pre-combustion chamber is provided at the front end of the second spark plug of the second ignition system; one end of the injection channel is connected to the pre-combustion chamber, and the other end is connected to the cylinder bore. After the second spark plug ignites the mixed gas in the pre-combustion chamber, it enters the combustion chamber through multiple injection channels. The high-temperature and high-pressure mixed gas after the ignition of the pre-combustion chamber can be injected into a larger range, which is faster and more efficient than single-point ignition combustion, and can improve the combustion efficiency.

[0024] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the specific structure of the cylinder head structure with a dual ignition system according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention includes: a cylinder head body, and a first ignition system and a second ignition system arranged on the cylinder head body. The first ignition system and the second ignition system ignite the mixed gas at different positions of the cylinder hole, which partially breaks the limitation of homogeneous combustion, makes the engine mixed gas burn quickly, shortens the combustion time, improves the combustion efficiency, enables the engine to achieve a higher compression ratio, and correspondingly reduces the emission of pollutants; at the same time, it improves the stability of the flame, avoids the misfire caused by a spark plug, and keeps the engine working stably.

[0025] Specifically, if Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the cylinder head body 6 is arranged on the cylinder body, used to seal the cylinder, form a combustion space together with the piston, and bear the effect of high temperature and high pressure gas. The cylinder head bears the mechanical load caused by the gas force and the tightening cylinder bolts, and also bears a high thermal load due to contact with the high temperature gas. In order to ensure a good seal of the cylinder, the cylinder head can neither be damaged nor deformed. For this reason, the cylinder head should have sufficient strength and rigidity, and is a box-shaped part with a complex structure. It is machined with intake and exhaust valve seat holes, valve guide holes, and spark plug mounting holes. A water jacket, intake and exhaust channels, and a combustion chamber or a part of the combustion chamber are also cast in the cylinder head. If the camshaft is installed on the cylinder head, the cylinder head is also machined with a cam bearing hole or a cam bearing seat and its lubricating oil channel.

[0026] The spark plug mounting hole is used to mount the spark plugs of the first ignition system and the second ignition system, which are used to generate electric sparks through the spark plugs at the end of the compression stroke of the gas engine to ignite the combustible mixture compressed in the cylinder, so that the engine can work normally and output power. The first ignition system and the second ignition system work together to ensure reliable ignition at the right time.

[0027] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the first ignition system includes: a first spark plug 1, which is installed in the first spark plug installation hole of the cylinder head body 6, and its function is to discharge the pulse high voltage electricity sent by the high-voltage wire (fire nozzle wire), break through the air between the two electrodes of the spark plug, and generate electric sparks to ignite the mixed gas in the cylinder hole 2. That is, under the action of high voltage, the air between the central electrode and the side electrode of the spark plug will be rapidly ionized to form positively charged ions and negatively charged free electrons. When the voltage between the electrodes reaches a certain value, the number of ions and electrons in the gas increases like an avalanche, so that the air loses its insulation, and the gap forms a discharge channel, and a "breakdown" phenomenon occurs. At this time, the gas forms a luminous body, that is, a "spark". As it expands due to heat, a "crackling" sound also occurs. The temperature of this electric spark can be as high as 2000-3000℃, which is enough to ignite the mixed gas in the cylinder combustion chamber.

[0028] The second ignition system includes: a second spark plug 3, a pre-combustion chamber 4 and an injection channel 5, wherein the second spark plug 3 is installed in the second spark plug installation hole of the cylinder head body; the pre-combustion chamber 4 is opened at the front end of the second spark plug 3; one end of the injection channel 5 is connected to the pre-combustion chamber 4, and the other end is connected to the cylinder hole 2. After the second spark plug 3 ignites the mixed gas in the pre-combustion chamber 4, it enters the combustion chamber through multiple injection channels 5. The high-temperature and high-pressure mixed gas after ignition in the pre-combustion chamber can be injected to a larger range, which is faster and more efficient than single-point ignition combustion, and can improve the combustion efficiency. In addition, the first ignition system and the second ignition system ignite the mixed gas at different positions of the cylinder hole, which partially breaks the limitation of homogeneous combustion, makes the engine mixed gas burn faster, shortens the combustion time, further improves the combustion efficiency, enables the engine to achieve a higher compression ratio, and correspondingly reduces the emission of pollutants; at the same time, it improves the stability of the flame, avoids the possible misfire caused by a spark plug, and keeps the engine working stably.

[0029] In one embodiment, the first spark plug 1 is installed in the first spark plug mounting hole on the top of the cylinder head body 6; the second spark plug 3 is installed in the second spark plug mounting hole on the side of the cylinder head body. The first spark plug 1 and the second spark plug 3 are designed in a reasonable position and form a certain angle, which is conducive to igniting different positions of the gas, so that the gas burns more quickly, thereby improving combustion efficiency. The pre-combustion chamber is filled with fresh mixed gas during the compression process, and a high-pressure flame is formed during ignition, so that the mixed gas can be quickly ignited, effectively reducing the ignition delay period and improving the combustion stability of the gas.

[0030] In one embodiment, if Figure 1 As shown, first spark plug 1 and second spark plug 3 are arranged at an acute angle.

[0031] In one embodiment, there are one or more injection channels 5. When there are multiple injection channels 5, the pre-combustion chamber is filled with fresh mixed gas during the compression process, and multiple flames (the number depends on the design) are formed during ignition. This can quickly ignite the mixed gas, effectively reduce the ignition delay period, and improve the combustion stability of the gas.

[0032] In one embodiment, there are three injection channels 5 .

[0033] The first ignition system and the second ignition system of the cylinder head structure with a dual ignition system ignite the mixed gas at different positions of the cylinder bore, which partially breaks the limitation of homogeneous combustion, makes the engine mixed gas burn faster, shortens the combustion time, improves the combustion efficiency, enables the engine to achieve a higher compression ratio, and correspondingly reduces the emission of pollutants; at the same time, it improves the stability of the flame, avoids the misfire caused by a spark plug, and keeps the engine working stably. In addition, a pre-combustion chamber 4 is provided at the front end of the second spark plug 3 of the second ignition system; one end of the injection channel 5 is connected to the pre-combustion chamber 4, and the other end is connected to the cylinder bore 2. After the second spark plug 3 ignites the mixed gas in the pre-combustion chamber 4, it enters the combustion chamber through multiple injection channels 5. The high-temperature and high-pressure mixed gas after the ignition of the pre-combustion chamber can be injected into a larger range, which is faster and more efficient than single-point ignition combustion, and can improve the combustion efficiency.

[0034] In summary, the cylinder head structure with a dual ignition system partially breaks the limitation of homogeneous combustion by arranging the first ignition system and the second ignition system to ignite the mixture at different positions of the cylinder hole, so that the engine mixture burns quickly, shortens the combustion time, improves the combustion efficiency, enables the engine to achieve a higher compression ratio, and correspondingly reduces pollutant emissions; at the same time, it improves the stability of the flame, avoids the misfire caused by a spark plug, and keeps the engine working stably.

For those skilled in the art, the present application may have various changes and variations. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present application should be included in the scope of protection of the present application. It should be noted that similar reference numerals and letters represent similar items in the following drawings, so once an item is defined in one drawing, it does not need to be further defined and explained in the subsequent drawings.

[0036] The above is only a specific implementation of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field can easily think of changes or substitutions within the technical scope disclosed in the present application, which should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
