Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Einrichtung zum Einspritzen von Kraftstoff nach der Gattung des Hauptanspruchs. Bei einer bekannten Einrichtung dieser Gattung (DE-A1 33 07 666) sind die beiden zur Kontaktierung des Heizelementes dienenden flächenhaften Kontaktelemente als ringsegmentförmige Bleche ausgebildet, die beide auf der dem Düsenkörper zugekehrten oberen Stirnseite des Ringbundes am Keramikkörper befestigt sind. Der zwischen dem Düsenkörper und dem Keramikkörper eingespannte Federring ist über eine beide Kontaktelemente überdeckende Isolierscheibe am Keramikkörper abgestützt und beide Kontaktelemente sind je über einen die Isolierscheibe und die zentrale Bohrung des Federrings durchsetzenden Kontaktstift mit der Stromzuleitung bzw. dem Düsenkörper elektrisch leitend verbunden. Diese Ausbildung ist verhältnismäßig toleranzempfindlich und erfordert auch einen erhöhten Fertigungs- und Montageaufwand.The invention relates to a device for injecting fuel according to the preamble of the main claim. In a known device of this type (DE-A1 33 07 666), the two two-dimensional contact elements serving to contact the heating element are designed as ring-segment-shaped sheets, both of which are fastened to the ceramic body on the upper end face of the annular collar facing the nozzle body. The spring ring clamped between the nozzle body and the ceramic body is supported on the ceramic body by an insulating disk covering both contact elements, and both contact elements are each electrically conductively connected to the power supply line or the nozzle body via a contact pin penetrating the insulating disk and the central bore of the spring ring. This training is relatively sensitive to tolerances and also requires increased manufacturing and assembly costs.
Die erfindungsgemäße Anordnung mit den kennzeichnenden Merkmalen des Hauptanspruchs hat demgegenüber den Vorteil einer geringeren Empfindlichkeit gegen Toleranzabweichungen der Teile, weil diese vollständig durch den Federring aufgenommen und ausgeglichen werden. Ferner ist erreicht, daß die Kontaktierung des Heizelementes über ausreichend große, fertigungsgerecht herstellbare Kontaktflächen erfolgen kann, wodurch sich örtliche Uberhitzungen von stromführenden Leitungselementen leicht vermeiden lassen.The arrangement according to the invention with the characterizing features of the main claim has the advantage of a lower Emp sensitivity to tolerance deviations of the parts, because these are completely absorbed and compensated by the spring washer. It is also achieved that the contacting of the heating element can take place via sufficiently large contact surfaces which can be produced for production, as a result of which local overheating of current-carrying line elements can easily be avoided.
