Definitions

  • This invention relates to a method of making a fuel injection nozzle of the kind comprising a nozzle body defining a blind bore, a frusto conical seating at the blind end of the bore, the seating leading into a sac volume from which extends an outlet orifice or orifices and a valve member slidable in the bore and having a tip shaped for engagement with the seating to prevent flow of fuel through the outlet orifice or orifices.
  • the valve member tends to rotate in the bore and if the surfaces of the valve member were concentric this would not matter.
  • the tip of the valve member is sometimes eccentric to a very small degree and even though the valve member is able to establish a fuel tight seal with the seating in the closed position of the valve member, in the partly open position it is found that the degree of restriction to the flow of fuel can vary as the angular position of the valve member changes in the use of the nozzle.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a fuel injection nozzle of the kind specified and a method of making same in a simple and convenient form.
  • a method of making a fuel injection nozzle of the kind specified comprises machining the bore and sac volume prior to hardening the nozzle body, and following hardening, grinding a portion of the bore, the seating and at least the wall of the entrance to the sac volume so that the wall of the entrance portion is concentric with the seating.
  • a fuel injection nozzle of the kind specified at least the entrance portion of the sac volume is of enlarged diameter and is concentric with the seating.
  • FIG. 1 of the drawings there is shown a portion of the nozzle body 10 in which is formed a blind bore 11 at the blind end of which is formed a frusto conical seating 12 leading into a sac volume 13 having a cylindrical wall 14. Extending from the sac volume 13 are outlet orifices 15.
  • valve member 16 Slidable in the bore is a valve member 16 the portion of which is illustrated is narrower in diameter than the bore to provide an annular space 17 which is connected to a fuel inlet of the nozzle, the inlet in use being connected to the outlet of a fuel injection pump.
  • the valve member has a conical tip 18 having a cone angle which is slightly larger than that of the seating 12.
  • a frusto conical portion 19 Intermediate the tip 18 and the cylindrical portion of the valve member is a frusto conical portion 19 having a cone angle which is smaller than that of the seating.
  • valve member is biased into contact with the seating by a spring (not shown) and is lifted in known manner away from the seating by the fuel under pressure supplied to the aforesaid inlet.
  • the nozzle body is formed from hardenable steel and while the body is in its soft state the bore 11, the seating 12 and the sac volume 13 are rough machined. In addition the outlet orifices 15 are also drilled. The body is then hardened a process which involves the use of heat and after hardening the portion of the bore which forms a bearing surface for the valve member and also the seating are ground so that they are concentric. The valve member is machined and ground to size and is assembled into the bore.
  • the eccentricities noted above can have an effect upon the operating characteristics of the nozzle. This is because, in use, the valve member tends to rotate in the bore. If therefore the valve member is lifted by a predetermined amount from the seating the degree of restriction to the flow of fuel between the tip of the valve member and the portion of the seating adjacent the sac volume, can vary depending on the angular position of the valve member.
  • FIG 3 in which the eccentricity is exaggerated, shows the modification to the nozzle to minimise the above problem.
  • the entrance portion 14A of the wall of the sac volume adjacent the seat has been machined after hardening of the nozzle body, so that it is concentric with the seating and the ground portion of the bore 11.
  • the transition between the seating 12 and the sac volume lies in a plane normal to the axis of the ground portion of the bore and the seating.
  • the restriction to the flow of fuel between the tip 18 of the valve member and the seating 12 will remain substantially constant irrespective of the angular position of the valve member.
  • the formation of the entrance portion 14B can be achieved using a shaped hone secured to a mandrel guided by the ground portion of the bore
