Embodiment illustrated in the accompanying drawings is exemplary and is not construed as limiting the disclosure or appended right The scope required.
Detailed description of the invention
Exemplary fuel injector figure 1 illustrates and include injector body 102 and reciprocating valve 110.Through injection The axial hole of device main body 102 forms fuel chambers and (goes up the main combustion that the valve path 118 by radially shrinking connects in this example Material room 104 and auxiliary fuel room 116;Other example can include the layout of any suitable one or more fuel chambers).Combustion Material entrance 106 is connected to main fuel room 104, and fuel outlet 101 is connected to auxiliary fuel room 116.Operation in this example Period, fuel (or fuel/air mixture) flows to main fuel room from fuel supply (not shown) through fuel inlet 106 In 104, flow in auxiliary fuel room 116, and then pass through fuel outlet 101 and flow out.Valve seat 140 (indicating in figs. 3-5) encloses Arrange around fuel outlet 101.
Valve 110 include the valve body 114 being just positioned at outside fuel outlet 101 and extend through fuel outlet 101, Fuel chambers 104 and 116 and the valve rod 112 of valve path 118.Valve 110 (upwards, as shown in the drawings) in a first direction Axially-movable cause valve body 114 to engage valve seat 140, the most substantially stop fuel to flow through fuel outlet and (that is, close injection Device).The motion of valve 110 (downwards, as illustrated in the drawings) in the other directions causes valve body 114 to take off with valve seat 140 From joint, so that fuel can flow through fuel outlet 101 (that is, opening ejector).Fuel outlet is generally by valve body 114 Limit with the joint of valve seat 140, and fuel injector can be after fuel outlet 101 (that is, outside auxiliary fuel room 116 Portion) include other path, passage or other stream guide structure.
Generally use the elastic spring member of any suitable type or layout with eccentrically arranged valve 110 in a first direction, keep Fuel injector cuts out.In the exemplary fuel injector of Fig. 1, use compression helical spring 134.When fuel spray is opened in hope During emitter, tensile force is applied to valve 110 by actuator in response to control signal in a second direction, overcomes spring closing force also Open fuel injector 10.In the example of fig. 1, actuator includes solenoid 130 and armature 132.
Any other suitable actuator, such as piezo actuator can be used.Can use that any other is suitable Arrange and open or close fuel injector.Such as, spring can be arranged to apply a force upon on second (that is, opening) direction And actuator can be arranged to apply a force upon on first (that is, cutting out) direction.In another example, it is possible to use one Or multiple actuator is the most all to provide power.
In the exemplary embodiment, main valve seal 108 engages main fuel room 104 and encloses to be substantially impeded from fuel The part engaging valve seal 108 of fuel chambers 104 is flow through around valve rod 112.Valve seal 108 is wider (reference at top Fig. 1) so that it engages spring 134.The crimping with conical lower portion end is pressed against on sealing member 108 against valve 110, thus connects Close sealing member 108 and promote sealing member 108 to move together with valve rod 112 when valve 110 moves back and forth.Sealing member 108 is by machine It is processed into and is snugly fit inside in main fuel room 104, to reduce between wall and the sealing member 108 in main fuel room 104 Leakage in small-gap suture.Similarly, the valve seal 108 in the embodiment that figure 1 illustrates is not fixed to valve rod 112, But it is machined to closely coordinate against it.
The circumferential component radially inwardly extended or flange 119 form the valve path 118 radially shunk.Such radial direction Contraction can narrow equably by making hole or by reduce that valve path 118 radially inwardly extends at flange 119 one or Other structure any of the cross-sectional area at multiple points realizes.In some embodiments, flange 119 can at least portion Point ground engages (that is, to keep the spacing of tighter tolerances close to) valve rod 112, in order to approximation fully stops fuel around valve rod 112 flow in such engaging zones.
Valve rod 112 can also selectively include being attached to valve rod 112 and extending radially outward to engage valve path 118 Peripheral flange.In such selectable embodiment, it should be noted that so that such outward extend flange, mainly Valve seal 108 and valve body 114 are caused properly by the relative area of the part of the fuel pressure in auxiliary fuel room 116 Power be applied on valve 110 (see below).
Metering element 120 is arranged to limit from main fuel room 104 to the fuel flow rate of auxiliary fuel room 116.At Fig. 3 With in the example of 5, metering element 120 includes the valve path 118 radially shunk engaging valve rod 112, that is, be positioned at master Wanting the fuel metering path between fuel chambers 104 and auxiliary fuel room 116, it is arranged to only allow from main fuel room 104 Restricted fuel flow rate in auxiliary fuel room 116.
The bonding part of valve rod 112 or flange 119 can be provided with at least one of the length of stretch flange formability 119 and axially prolong The groove stretched or flat.Flange 119 and valve rod 112 are not engaged with each other at such groove or office, par, thus stay The metering aperture 122 of the restricted fuel flow rate between lower permission main fuel room 104 and auxiliary fuel room 116.Fig. 4's In example, the fuel metering path of metering element 120 or restriction flow includes by connecting main fuel room 104 and auxiliary fuel room The metering aperture 122 that the hole formed through flange 119 of 116 or path are formed.Permission main fuel room 104 and auxiliary can be used That helps the fuel flow rate limited suitably between fuel chambers 116 connects any of main fuel room 104 and auxiliary fuel room 116 Path or aperture.Such path or aperture can be formed in such as injector body 102, flange 119, valve rod 112 or shape Become and (such as, formed by groove as above or flat) between flange 119 and valve rod 112.
When fuel injector 10 cuts out, the fuel pressure between main fuel room 104 and auxiliary fuel room 116 is by meter Metering-orifice mouth 122 is balance.Fuel pressure in main fuel room 104 by power in a first direction against main valve seal 108 are applied on valve 110.Fuel pressure in auxiliary fuel room 116 is by power being positioned at against valve body 114 in a second direction The part in valve seat 140 and not occupied by valve rod 112 is applied on valve 110.If applying the throwing of the position of those power Shadow area (being perpendicular to valve rod 112) is substantially equal to each other, then fuel pressure will not apply resulting net force on valve 110.Fuel sprays Emitter 10 is considered as pressure balanced when it substantially meets this condition.
When fuel under pressure flows through entrance 106, the upward direction of Fig. 1 exists fluid pressure.Under this condition, Fluid force makes injector body 102 slightly expand, thus is slightly increased the bore dia of room 104, and this generally will cause sealing member 108 With the small-gap suture (sealing member/body gap) between main body 102 expands, increasing the seepage through sealing member 108 or leakage, this is Undesirable.But, using the layout of the sealing member 108 shown in Fig. 1, fluid force will make (a) main body 102 and (b) sealing member Gap (sealing member/bar gap) between 108 and valve rod 112 both expands.Because sealing member/bar gap is at top end (Fig. 1 In) place blocked by tapered crimp, so it forms closed end (dead end), does not produce other leakage.Advantageously however, combustion is worked as When material ejector is pressurized, the expansion in sealing member/bar gap trends towards offsetting broadening of sealing member/body gap, thus passes through The seepage through sealing member 108 or leakage are reduced in sealing member/bar gap.
When there is not the power applied by actuator, the unique power being applied to valve 110 is the power of spring 134, spring 134 Power the valve 110 of fuel injector is biased in closed position.When enough power is applied by solenoid 130 in a second direction To (that is, when actuator force exceedes spring force) during valve 110, valve 110 is mobile (downwards) in a second direction and opens.If by The power that spring 134 applies changes (so most of springs are exactly generally in the range of finite motion) linearly along with displacement, that The displacement of valve 110 is the most proportional to the difference between spring force and actuator force.
In the case of the effect not having metering element 120, fuel flow rate is generally by the square root with fuel inlet pressure Approximately proportionally change, and depend on actuator force the most slightly under higher fuel pressure.In some cases, Wish to reduce or substantially eliminate the fuel flow rate such dependency to fuel inlet pressure.Also want to fuel flow rate depend on Actuating power (that is, the resulting net force applied by the solenoid 130 in the example of Fig. 1 and spring 134).Metering element 120 provides that A little functions, as described further below.
Restricted metering aperture 122 provides the restricted combustion between main fuel room 104 and auxiliary fuel room 116 Stream amount.As it has been described above, when fuel injector 10 cuts out, the fuel pressure in those rooms is balance, and the most additionally Pressure cause power be applied on valve 110.But, when fuel injector 10 is opened and fuel flows, pressure differential is in main combustion Producing between material room 104 (elevated pressures) and auxiliary fuel room 116 (lower pressure), this is due to by restricted dip hatch The flow of mouth 122 relies on pressure and declines.This pressure differential causes the stream trended towards at first (that is, closing) square valve 110 of boosting Amount dependence power.Result is that a kind of negative feedback is arranged.Higher fuel inlet pressure produces higher fuel flow rate, and then causes To relying on the increase of power towards closed position in the flow that moved by valve 110, thus reduce fuel flow rate.On the contrary, it is relatively low Fuel inlet pressure produces relatively low fuel flow rate, and then causes the flow on valve 110 to rely on the reduction of closing forces, thus increases Fuel flow rate.
Negative feedback can be reduced through the fuel flow rate of fuel injector 10 (for given actuator force and constant spring Power) dependency to fuel inlet pressure.Such as, show in Figures 2 A and 2 B about there is negative feedback (dotted line) and not having The fuel flow rate of the calculating of the fuel injector of negative feedback (solid line) and the figure of fuel pressure.Fuel injector through Fig. 1 Fuel flow rate depends on the flow resistance in metering aperture 122 and (measures 0.021mm for Fig. 2 A2Flow area and for Fig. 2 B measure 0.105mm2Flow area), valve-position-dependence flow resistance at fuel outlet 101, be applied to by spring 134 and valve actuator The clean non-flowing-dependency power (22.25N is about for Fig. 2 A and 2B) of valve 110, and mainly valve seal 108 and valve body 114 (is 1.128mm for Fig. 2 A and 2B by the area of the fuel pressure in each fuel chambers2Pressure effective area). Feedback can also reduce injector temperature change effect on fuel flow rate, and injector temperature change can in explosive motor Can be significantly.Any area outward extended flange on valve rod 112 reduces the impact that negative feedback is arranged.Can select Any group of these parameters or subgroup are to produce the fuel flow rate expectation dependency to fuel inlet pressure.
In the exemplary embodiment, fuel injector 10 can include being arranged to guide spraying from fuel outlet 101 The spraying profiled surface of fuel.Spraying profiled surface can completely or partially be arranged in injector body around valve seat 140 On 102, or all or part of layout that spraying profiled surface can divide around the seat interface of valve body 114.
