Cylinder head and method for manufacturing the same
View Patent ↗A method for manufacturing a cylinder head includes: preparing a cylinder head casting having an intake passage, an exhaust passage, and a combustion chamber by casting using a mold and a plurality of cores; machining an intake port, an intake valve seat, an intake valve guide bore, an exhaust port, an exhaust valve seat, and an exhaust valve guide bore in the cylinder head casting by a first cylindrical tool; and forming a tapered surface on a portion of edge of the intake port by a second cylindrical tool. In particular, the second cylindrical tool moves along a predetermined trajectory at the edge portion of the intake port and rotates around an axis simultaneously to machine the tapered surface.
1. A method for manufacturing a cylinder head, the method comprising:
preparing a cylinder head casting having an intake passage, an exhaust passage, and a combustion chamber by casting using a mold and a plurality of cores;
machining an intake port, an intake valve seat, an intake valve guide bore, an exhaust port, an exhaust valve seat, and an exhaust valve guide bore in the cylinder head casting by a first cylindrical tool; and
forming a tapered surface on a portion of an edge of the intake port by a second cylindrical tool,
wherein the second cylindrical tool moves along a predetermined trajectory at the portion of the edge of the intake port and rotates around an axis thereof simultaneously to machine the tapered surface, and
wherein the first cylindrical tool has a first cutting portion configured to cut the intake valve guide bore, a second cutting portion configured to cut the intake port, and a third cutting portion configured to cut the intake valve seat.
2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the second cylindrical tool has a diameter smaller than an inner diameter of the intake passage.
3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the second cylindrical tool has a diameter smaller than a diameter of the second cutting portion of the first cylindrical tool.
4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein when the tapered surface is machined by the second cylindrical tool, an axis of the second cylindrical tool intersects with an axis of the intake passage at a predetermined angle.
