Connecting Rod For A Variable Compression Engine

View page
US Patent:
6394047, May 28, 2002
Filed:
Aug 10, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/682263
Inventors:
V. Durga Nageswar Rao - Bloomfield Hills MI
Yash Andrew Imai - Troy MI
Michael Zaitz - High Point NC
Pravin Sashidharan - Inkster MI
Daniel James Baraszu - Plymouth MI
Assignee:
Ford Global Technologies, Inc. - Dearborn MI
International Classification:
G05G 100
US Classification:
123 48B
Abstract:
A variable length connecting rod for changing a compression ratio of an engine is provided. The connecting rod includes a first locking assembly for locking the connecting rod in a first effective length setting corresponding to a high compression ratio. The connecting rod further includes a second locking assembly for releasably locking the connecting rod in a second effective length setting corresponding to a low compression ratio. When a length change is initiated, hydraulic fluid unlocks one of the locking assemblies allowing inertial force to effect the length change during an engine cycle. At completion of a length change, the other locking assembly automatically locks. The locking assemblies are self-contained units that are assembled to a bearing retainer.

Rocker Arm Assembly

US Patent:
63149281, Nov 13, 2001
Filed:
Dec 6, 2000
Appl. No.:
9/731371
Inventors:
Daniel James Baraszu - Plymouth MI
George Aristidis Papaioannou - Livonia MI
Peter Renny George - West Chester OH
Satheesh Makkapati - Belleville MI
Steve Poe - Canton MI
Assignee:
Ford Global Technologies, Inc. - Dearborn MI
International Classification:
F01L 118
F01L 1300
F02D 1306
US Classification:
123 9016
Abstract:
The lost motion arm 44 has first and second contact surfaces 102 and 104. A latch mechanism is connected on the body with an extendable plunger 120 having a first contact surface 124 and a second contact surface 126. The plunger 120 has a first position for first contact surface 124 engagement with the lost motion arm first contact surface 102 to prevent angular movement of the lost motion arm 44 with respect to the body 10 in a first angular direction. When angular movement in the first angular direction is prevented, the motion of the lost motion arm 44 imparted by the cam lobe 66 is transmitted to the body 10 to provide for a first state of operation of the valve stem 18. When the plunger 120 is in a second position, non-contacting with the lost motion arm 44, the lost motion arm 44 is allowed to pivot relative to the body 10. Accordingly, the rocker arm assembly 7 will be in a second state of total or partial deactivation of the valve stem 18. The plunger second contact surface 126 contacts with the lost motion arm second contact surface 104 to cause the plunger 120 to be cammed out of the first position when the plunger 120 is in the first position and when the plunger first contact surface 124 is not engaged with the lost motion arm's first contact surface 102.

Internal Combuston Engine Having Separated Cylinder Head Oil Drains And Crankcase Ventilation Passages

View page
US Patent:
58529926, Dec 29, 1998
Filed:
Nov 24, 1997
Appl. No.:
8/976940
Inventors:
David Lee Boggs - Bloomfield Hills MI
Daniel James Baraszu - Plymouth MI
David Mark Foulkes - Erfstadt, DE
Enio Goyannes Gomes - Ann Arbor MI
Assignee:
Ford Global Technologies, Inc. - Dearborn MI
International Classification:
F01M 100
US Classification:
123196R
Abstract:
An internal combustion engine includes separated oil drain-back and crankcase ventilation passages. The oil drain-back passages extend from the cylinder head to a position below the top level of oil in the engine's crankcase. The crankcase ventilation passages extend from passages formed in the main bearing bulkheads from positions above the oil level in the crankcase and ultimately through the cylinder head. Oil dams surrounding the uppermost portions of the crankcase ventilation passages prevent oil from running downwardly through the crankcase ventilation passages.
