Valve control apparatus for engine
Provided is a valve control apparatus for an engine that opens and closes an exhaust valve and intake value of the engine while rotating in conjunction with a crankshaft of the engine, the valve control apparatus including an exhaust valve opening and closing device opening and closing the exhaust valve during a first exhaust valve opening period and an intake valve opening and closing device opening and closing the intake valve during a first intake valve opening period.
1. A valve control apparatus for an engine that opens and closes an exhaust valve and an intake valve of the engine in conjunction with a crankshaft of the engine, the valve control apparatus comprising:
an exhaust valve opening and closing device opening and closing the exhaust valve during a first exhaust valve opening period; and
an intake valve opening and closing device opening and closing the intake valve during a first intake valve opening period,
wherein
the exhaust valve opening and closing device further opens and closes the exhaust valve during a second exhaust valve opening period relatively shorter than the first exhaust valve opening period within the first intake valve opening period,
the intake valve opening and closing device further opens and closes the intake valve during a second intake valve opening period relatively shorter than the first intake valve opening period within the first exhaust valve opening period,
a piston reciprocating within a cylinder of the engine is located at a top dead center when a crankshaft rotation angle is 0 degrees, 360 degrees, and 720 degrees, and is located at a bottom dead center when the crankshaft rotation angle is 180 degrees and 540 degrees,
a maximum opening point of the exhaust valve in the second exhaust valve opening period falls within a range of 487 degrees to 507 degrees based on the crankshaft rotation angle,
the first intake valve opening period falls within a range of 310 degrees to 590 degrees based on the crankshaft rotation angle,
a maximum opening point of the intake valve in the second intake valve opening period falls within a range of 216 degrees to 236 degrees based on the crankshaft rotation angle, and
the first exhaust valve opening period falls within a range of 120 degrees to 390 degrees based on the crankshaft rotation angle.
2. The valve control apparatus of claim 1 , further comprising a camshaft connected to the crankshaft and driven to rotate,
wherein the exhaust valve opening and closing device includes an exhaust cam provided on the camshaft,
the intake valve opening and closing device includes an intake cam provided on the camshaft,
the exhaust cam includes a first exhaust cam nose for opening and closing the exhaust valve during the first exhaust valve opening period and a second exhaust cam nose for opening and closing the exhaust valve during the second exhaust valve opening period,
the intake cam includes a first intake cam nose for opening and closing the intake valve during the first intake valve opening period and a second intake cam nose for opening and closing the intake valve during the second intake valve opening period, and
the second exhaust cam nose and the second intake cam nose are formed to have a size relatively smaller than the first exhaust cam nose and the first intake cam nose, respectively.
3. The valve control apparatus of claim 2 , wherein a profile of the exhaust cam is formed so that a ratio of the second exhaust valve opening period by the second exhaust cam nose of the exhaust cam to the first exhaust valve opening period by the first exhaust cam nose of the exhaust cam is falls within a range of 0.32 to 0.36.
4. The valve control apparatus of claim 2 , wherein a profile of the exhaust cam is formed so that a ratio of the second intake valve opening period by the second intake cam nose of the intake cam to the first intake valve opening period by the first intake cam nose of the intake cam falls within a range of 0.34 to 0.38.
5. The valve control apparatus of claim 2 , wherein a maximum lift of the exhaust valve in the second exhaust valve opening period and a maximum lift of the intake valve in the second intake valve opening period are 0.8 mm or more.
6. The valve control apparatus of claim 1 , wherein a maximum lift of the exhaust valve in the second exhaust valve opening period and a maximum lift of the intake valve in the second intake valve opening period are 0.8 mm or more.
