Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to an electronic throttle valve in the intake system of an automobile engine. Background Technology

[0002] The electronic throttle valve is a core actuator in the intake system of a modern diesel engine management system. Connected to the air filter above and the engine block below, it primarily controls the engine's air-fuel ratio, adjusts the intake and exhaust pressure difference, optimizes exhaust temperature, effectively activates the catalyst in the aftertreatment system, and reduces exhaust pollutant emissions. Currently, the working principle of a diesel engine's electronic throttle valve is based on the current operating status and exhaust emissions. The electronic control unit (ECU) uses pulse width modulation (PWM) signals to control a DC motor, which drives a transmission gear to rotate. This gear then rotates the valve plate within a certain angle range, thereby adjusting the throttle opening angle and controlling the intake air volume to ensure the engine operates at its optimal state.

[0003] In existing diesel engine electronic throttle technology, two-stage gear transmission is commonly used. However, diesel vehicles often face heavy loads or require high torque output. In such cases, the engine requires more intake air volume and pressure, which leads to a greater pressure difference on both sides of the valve plate. Although two-stage gear transmission can provide a faster transmission response, its transmission ratio is limited, and its torque transmission capacity is also limited. When the throttle is under a large air flow pressure difference, it is prone to instability, often causing the valve plate to vibrate, generating vibration and noise, which further affects the control accuracy of the equipment and reduces its service life. Summary of the Invention

[0012] Preferably, the bottom surface of the mounting cavity is provided with an upwardly protruding return column, and the two opposite sides of the return column are respectively provided with a first return column side surface and a second return column side surface; when the sector gear assembly and the valve housing are in the installed state, the first stop leg and the second stop leg of the return torsion spring abut against the first return column side surface and the second return column side surface, respectively; when the sector gear rotates away from the predetermined initial position, the first stop leg is stuck on the first return column side surface, and the torsion spring push part pushes the second stop leg away from the second return column side surface to twist the return torsion spring.

[0013] This utility model has at least the following advantages and features:

[0014] 1.

Specifically, the sector gear 340 includes a sector gear body 341 and an annular guide post 342; the sector gear body 341 is provided with a through hole 3411 for the valve shaft 30 to pass through, and the sector gear 340 is press-fitted to one end of the valve shaft 30 adjacent to the mounting cavity 110 (i.e., the top end of the valve shaft 30) through the through hole 3411, and is fixedly connected by laser welding.

The pressure angle of the sector gear 340 is 20 degrees, the module is 0.9, the addendum coefficient is 1, the backlash coefficient is 0.39, and the displacement coefficient is -0.05.

[0042] The installation steps and working principle of a three-stage transmission electronic throttle valve for a diesel engine according to an embodiment of this utility model are as follows.

[0043] The first installation step involves assembling the return torsion spring 350 onto the sector gear 340. One specific method is as follows: First, press the first stop leg 351 of the return torsion spring 350 tightly against the side surface 3431 of the first push part of the torsion spring push part 343. Second, rotate the second stop leg 352 counterclockwise one turn, engaging it against the side surface 3432 of the second push part of the torsion spring push part 343. Both stops are now firmly against the sides of the torsion spring push part 343. At this point, the return torsion spring 350, once installed onto the sector gear 340, has preload torque, forming a single integrated component. This structure requires only a single helical spring to securely bind the return torsion spring 350 to the sector gear 340, greatly simplifying the installation process. The result after the return torsion spring is installed onto the sector gear is as follows. Figure 7 As shown.

[0044] Installation step two involves assembling the sector gear assembly 34 into the valve body 10 of the electronic throttle. One specific method is as follows: First, slide the second stop leg 352 of the return torsion spring 350 into the guide surface above the side face 162 of the second return column. Second, continue pushing the sector gear assembly 34 in, sliding the second stop leg 352 into the side face 162 of the second return column, and sliding the first stop leg 351 into the side face 161 of the first return column. Due to the preload torque of the return torsion spring 350 after installation on the sector gear 340, the sector gear 340 can be reliably fixed in the return column position on the valve body 10, achieving flow control at the default position of the electronic throttle. This also significantly reduces the time required to install the sector gear onto the electronic throttle valve body, reducing assembly time and costs. The situation after the sector gear assembly is installed on the throttle valve body is as follows. Figure 8 As shown.

[0045] Installation step three involves assembling the first intermediate gear 72 and the second intermediate gear 73 into the valve body 10 of the electronic throttle. One specific implementation method is as follows: First, the center of the second intermediate gear 73 is inserted into the second fixed shaft 180, and the second output pinion 731 meshes with the sector gear 340. Second, the center of the first intermediate gear 72 is inserted into the first fixed shaft 170, and the first input large gear 720 meshes with the drive gear 51. The first output pinion 721 meshes with the second input large gear 730. The first fixed shaft 170 and the second fixed shaft 180 are respectively inserted into the first fixed shaft mounting post 140 and the second fixed shaft mounting post 150 within the mounting cavity of the electronic throttle. The drive gear 51, the first intermediate gear 72, the second intermediate gear 73, and the sector gear 340 together constitute a three-stage gear transmission mechanism. The position of the installed three-stage gear transmission mechanism on the valve body is as follows: Figure 9 As shown.

[0046] In use, the DC motor 50 drives the drive gear 51 to rotate, which in turn drives the first intermediate gear 72 and the second intermediate gear 73 to rotate, thereby causing the sector gear 340 to rotate and deviate from its predetermined initial position. During this process, the sector torsion spring pusher 343 pushes the second stop leg 352 of the return torsion spring 350 away from the side surface 162 of the second return column. The return torsion spring 350 is then twisted clockwise, and the first stop leg 351 of the return torsion spring remains stuck on the side surface 161 of the first return column. At this time, the return torsion spring 350 compresses to generate a return torque. When the drive torque of the DC motor is removed, the return torsion spring 350, under the action of torque, drives the sector gear 340 through the second stop leg 352. The sector gear 340 returns to its default position under the action of the return torque, thereby causing the valve plate 32 to return quickly.

[0047] This utility model embodiment improves the design of the aforementioned valve body, intermediate gear, and sector gear assembly structure by introducing a force transmission method using four transmission gears to achieve three-stage speed change. The transmission ratio between the drive gear and the first input large gear is 5.3, the transmission ratio between the first output small gear and the second input large gear is 2.3, and the transmission ratio between the second output small gear and the sector gear is set to 5.7. This solves the technical problems of insufficient torque transmission, inadequate accuracy and stability caused by the gear transmission ratio of the existing throttle body, as well as the easy vibration of the valve plate under large pressure differentials. Compared with the existing diesel engine electronic throttle body, the three-stage transmission electronic throttle body of this utility model embodiment can effectively improve the output torque under the same conditions, and the torque transmission is more accurate. At the same time, it reduces the stress load on each gear, achieves smooth and stable operation, reduces the vibration and noise of the valve plate under large pressure differentials, and improves the stability, reliability, and durability of the system.

[0048] Obviously, those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope. Therefore, if these modifications and variations fall within the scope of the claims of this utility model and their equivalents, this utility model also intends to include these modifications and variations.
