Definitions
- the invention is based on a device for injecting a fuel-gas mixture according to the category of the main claim.
- an injection valve for injecting a fuel-gas mixture (US Pat. No. 4,957,241), in which a spacer plate for influencing the air quantity is installed between a nozzle body and a protective cap.
- the spacer plate between the nozzle body and the protective cap has a central opening into which the downstream pin end of a valve needle is immersed.
- the air supply to the fuel emerging from a fuel channel takes place via air channels and air chambers.
- the radial air supply for tapping the valve needle is determined by the height of, for example, four spacer knobs formed on the spacer plate.
- the amount and the composition of the fuel-air mixture is determined by the size of the annular gap extending in the axial direction between the pin of the valve needle and the circumference of the opening in the spacer plate.
- the fuel is not one Gas includes so that there is no risk of the fuel jets moving towards each other.
- the device according to the invention for injecting a fuel-gas mixture with the characterizing features of the main claim represents an easily mountable and easy-to-adjust option for the improved treatment of fuel by supplying a defined amount of gas while maintaining the desired double radiation.
- the convex beam splitter acts as a flow resistance, which causes a backflow.
- the ram flow is responsible for the dual radiation that is maintained in spite of the gas containment also downstream of the beam splitter and the good treatment effect of the gas containment through an improved mixing of gas and fuel.
- beam splitters with convex splitter surfaces which have circular, semicircular or elliptical cross sections.
- the beam splitters have waist-shaped constrictions or bulges with convex divider surfaces.
- a sheet-metal insert with spacers for example molded-on knobs
- spacers for example molded-on knobs
- the gas is metered for improved fuel preparation.
- the sheet-metal insert is pressed against the spray-perforated disk by a section of the gas-enclosing body tapering upstream in the shape of a truncated cone, which at least partially abuts a conical area of the sheet-metal insert.
- the inserted sheet-metal insert is pre-centered via tabs which lead radially outward on the sheet-metal insert. The fine adjustment is achieved by pressing the gas enclosing body.
- a cone difference angle formed between the sheet metal insert and the gas encasing body ensures axial tolerance compensation with respect to the sheet metal insert and the gas encasing body with respect to the spray hole disk. Because of this Jamming and the cone difference angle associated therewith a seal is achieved so that fuel cannot penetrate into gas-carrying channels and flow channels.
- FIG. 1 shows a partially illustrated device for injecting a fuel-gas mixture according to a first exemplary embodiment according to the invention
- FIG. 2 shows an enlarged detail from FIG. 1
- FIG. 3 shows an effect of a beam splitter with a convex splitter surface
- FIGS. 4 to 6 Exemplary embodiments for the design of the spray chamber surrounded by the gas-enclosing body with a beam splitter having a circular cross section
- FIG. 1 a valve in the form of an injection valve for fuel injection systems of mixture-compressing spark-ignition internal combustion engines is shown partially and in simplified form as an exemplary embodiment.
- the injection valve has a tubular valve seat support 1, in which is concentric with one Longitudinal valve axis 2, a longitudinal opening 3 is formed.
- a tubular valve needle 5 which is connected at its downstream end 6 to an, for example, spherical valve closing body 7, on the circumference of which, for example, five flats 8 are provided.
- the injection valve is actuated in a known manner, for example electromagnetically.
- An indicated electromagnetic circuit with a magnetic coil 10, an armature 11 and a core 12 is used for the axial movement of the valve needle 5 and thus for opening against the spring force of a return spring (not shown) or closing the injection valve the valve closing body 7 facing away from the end of the valve needle 5 by, for example a weld seam is connected by means of a laser and aligned with the core 12.
- the magnet coil 10 surrounds the core 12, which, for example, represents the end of an inlet connection piece (not shown in more detail) which surrounds the magnet coil 10 and which serves to supply the medium to be metered by means of the valve, here fuel.
- a guide opening 15 of a valve seat body 16 serves to guide the valve closing body 7 during the axial movement.
- the cylinder-shaped valve seat body 16 is tightly mounted in the longitudinal opening 3, which is concentric to the valve longitudinal axis 2, by welding .
- the circumference of the valve seat body 16 has a slightly smaller diameter than the longitudinal opening 3 of the valve seat carrier 1.
- the valve seat body 16 is concentrically and firmly connected to a base part 20 of, for example, a cup-shaped spray orifice plate 21, so that the base part 20 rests with its upper end face 19 on the lower end face 17 of the valve seat body 16.
- connection of the valve seat body 16 and the spray perforated disk 21 takes place, for example, by means of a circumferential and sealed first weld seam 22, for example formed by a laser, on the base part 20.
- This type of assembly means that there is at least a risk of undesired deformation of the base part 20 in the area of the base part two, for example four, injection openings 25 formed by stamping or eroding, which are located in a central region 24 of the base part 20, are avoided.
- the base part 20 of the cup-shaped spray perforated disk 21 is adjoined by a circumferential retaining edge 26 which extends in the axial direction away from the valve seat body 16 and is conically bent outwards as far as its downstream end.
- the holding edge 26 has a larger diameter at its end than the diameter of the longitudinal opening 3 of the valve seat carrier 1. Since the peripheral diameter of the valve seat body 16 is smaller than the diameter of the longitudinal opening 3 of the valve seat carrier 1, there is only between the Longitudinal opening 3 and the slightly tapered outwardly curved retaining edge 26 of the spray plate 21 a radial pressure. The holding edge 26 exerts a radial spring action on the wall of the longitudinal opening 3. As a result, when the valve seat body 16 consisting of the valve seat body 16 and the spray perforated disk 21 is inserted, Part of the seat in the longitudinal opening 3 of the valve seat carrier 1 prevents chip formation on the valve seat part and on the longitudinal opening 3.
- the depth of insertion of the valve seat part consisting of valve seat body 16 and cup-shaped spray orifice plate 21 into the longitudinal opening 3 determines the presetting of the stroke of the valve needle 5, since the one end position of the valve needle 5 when the solenoid coil 10 is not excited due to the valve closing body 7 resting on a valve seat surface 29 of the valve seat body 16 is fixed.
- the other end position of the valve needle 5 is determined when the solenoid 10 is excited, for example by the armature 11 resting on the core 12. The path between these two end positions of the valve needle 5 thus represents the stroke.
- the holding edge 26 of the spray plate 21 is connected to the wall of the longitudinal opening 3, for example by a circumferential and tight second weld seam 30.
- the second weld 30 is formed like the first weld 22, for example by means of a laser. The parts to be welded are only slightly heated during laser welding and the process is safe and reliable.
- a tight weld of the valve seat body 16 and the spray orifice plate 21 as well as of the spray orifice plate 21 and the valve seat support 1 is necessary so that the fuel does not pass between the longitudinal opening 3 of the valve seat support 1 and the circumference of the valve seat body 16 to the spray openings 25 or between the longitudinal opening 3 of the valve seat carrier 1 and the holding edge 26 of the cup-shaped spray perforated disk 21 therethrough can flow directly into an intake line of the internal combustion engine. Because of the two weld seams 22 and 30, there are consequently two fastening points on the cup-shaped spray perforated disk 21.
- the spherical valve closing body 7 interacts with the valve seat surface 29 of the valve seat body 16 tapering in the shape of a truncated cone, which is formed in the axial direction between the guide opening 15 and the lower end face 17 of the valve seat body 16.
- the valve seat body 16, facing the solenoid 10 has a valve seat body opening 33 which has a larger diameter than the guide opening 15 of the valve seat body 16.
- a section 34 which adjoins the valve seat body opening 33 in the direction of the spray orifice plate 21 is characterized by its conical frustoconical taper up to the diameter of the guide opening 15.
- valve seat body opening 33 with its subsequent frustoconical section 34 serves as a flow inlet so that a flow of the medium can take place from a valve interior 35 limited in the radial direction through the longitudinal opening 3 of the valve seat carrier 1 to the guide opening 15 of the valve seat body 16.
- the diameter of the guide opening 15 is designed such that the spherical valve closing body 7 projects through the guide opening 15 outside of its flattened portions 8 with a small radial distance.
- the valve seat carrier 1 is at least partially radially and axially enclosed by a stepped concentric gas-enclosing body 41.
- the gas encasing body 41 made of a plastic includes, for example, both the actual gas encasing at the downstream end of the valve seat support 1 and a gas inlet channel (not shown), which serves to supply the gas into the gas encasing body 41 and, for example, is formed in one piece with the gas enclosing body 41 is.
- tubular section 43 of the gas encasing body 41 which is connected, for example, to a plastic encapsulation of the injection valve in the axial direction between the magnet coil 10 and the valve closing body 7 by ultrasonic welding, is followed by a section 44 tapering downstream.
- This conical section 44 is, for example, also stepped.
- the formation of the gas enclosing body 41 in this area can be varied in accordance with the spatial conditions of a valve receptacle, not shown.
- the section 44 is followed downstream by an axially extending tubular section 45 of the gas enclosing body 41, which, however, is distinguished by a much smaller diameter than in the section 43.
- the axial section 45 surrounds this downstream end of the valve seat support 1 both directly adjacent and at a radial distance from the supply of the gas up to the fuel emerging from the spray openings 25 of the orifice plate 21.
- the walls are therefore formed less strongly than in the entire other peripheral area.
- the reduction in the wall thickness of the gas containment body 41 in section 45 has the result that, for example, three to six gas inlet channels 48 are formed between the valve seat support 1 and the gas containment body 41, which for example regularly run axially at equal intervals on the circumference of the valve seat support 1, for example at three gas inlet channels 48 offset by 120 ° each or six gas inlet channels 48 offset by 60 ° each.
- the section 45 of the gas enclosing body 41 is designed in such a way that first chamfers 49 are formed in the areas of the gas inlet channels 48 and extend axially over the entire length of the gas inlet channels 48.
- the section 45 of the gas enclosing body 41 has second chamfers 50 at its upstream end, which are only formed on the circumference outside the gas inlet channels 48 and which simplify assembly when the gas enclosing body 41 is pushed on from the downstream side onto the valve seat carrier 1 and thus enable the injector.
- the axially extending section 45 has at its upstream and downstream ends a radially outward-facing circumferential shoulder 52, 53, which together with the outer wall of section 45 form an annular groove 55.
- a sealing ring 56 is arranged in the annular groove 55, the Side surfaces are formed by the downstream side of the shoulder 52 and the upstream side of the shoulder 53 and the groove base 58 thereof by the outer wall of the section 45 of the gas encasing body 41.
- the sealing ring 56 serves to seal between the circumference of the injection valve with the gas encasing body 41 and a valve receptacle (not shown), for example the intake line of the internal combustion engine or a so-called fuel and / or gas distribution line.
- the valve seat carrier 1 has an outer circumferential taper 60 and an inner circumferential taper 61, against which no other components are in contact and which are intended to improve the assembly of the gas encasing body 41 on the injection valve, while on a downstream end face 62 of the valve seat carrier 1, the gas encasing body 41 with a radially extending section 63 in the areas outside the gas inlet channels 48.
- the axially extending gas inlet channels 48 are followed, for example, by as many, for example three to six, radially extending flow channels 64 between the radially extending section 63 of the gas encasing body 41 and the downstream end face 62 of the valve seat carrier 1 arise after the assembly of the gas enclosing body 41 and the gas flows radially through it.
- the gas then flows axially upstream into an annular channel 65 between a last concentric section 68 of the gas enclosing body 41 which tapers in the shape of a truncated cone upstream and the wall of the longitudinal opening 3 in the valve seat support 1 until it is deflected Kung the flow at a lower end face 69 of the bottom part 20 of the spray plate 21 in the radial direction.
- the gas-enclosing body 41 presses at least partially with an outer surface 70 of its section 68, which projects into the injection valve and thus into the valve seat support 1 in the direction of the orifice plate 21, against an inner surface 72 of a tapered and circumferential region 73 of a sheet metal insert 74, which in turn abuts on the lower end face 69 of the base part 20 of the spray plate 21 with spacers, for example knobs 75.
- the gas is ultimately metered for improved preparation of the fuel emerging from the spray openings 25 of the spray plate 21.
- the sheet metal insert 74 is formed by a radial region 77 with a mixture spray opening 78 running in it centrally and concentrically to the longitudinal axis 2 of the valve, the region 73 which is conical and thus oblique to the longitudinal axis 2 and, for example, three radially outward and conical Area 73 formed downstream tabs 80.
- the knobs 75 are formed at at least three, then offset by 120 °, which have an axial expansion in the direction of the spray-perforated disk 21, and these are provided on their lower end face 69 after the gas-encasing body 41 has been installed touch point.
- knobs 75 of the sheet-metal insert 74 With the knobs 75 of the sheet-metal insert 74, an axial distance between the lower end face 69 of the spray hole Washer 21 and an upper end face 81 of the radial region 77 of the sheet metal insert 74 facing the spray orifice disk 21, which corresponds to the axial height of the knobs 75 and thus the axial expansion of a gas ring gap 83 formed thereby.
- the knobs 75 of the sheet metal insert 74 are introduced, for example, by embossing processes, since this allows the desired, very small tolerances of the axial extent to be maintained.
- the axial dimension of the extent of the gas ring gap 83 forms the metering cross section for the gas flowing in from the ring channel 65, for example treatment air.
- the gas ring gap 83 serves to supply the gas to the fuel discharged through the spray openings 25 of the spray orifice plate 21 and to meter the gas.
- the gas supplied through the gas inlet ducts 48, the flow ducts 64 and the ring ducts 65 flows through the narrow gas ring gap 83 to the mixture spray opening 78 and meets the fuel emitted through the two or four spray openings 25, for example. Due to the small axial extent of the gas ring gap 83 predetermined by the knobs 75, the gas supplied is greatly accelerated and atomizes the fuel particularly finely.
- the suction air branched off by a bypass in front of a throttle valve in the intake manifold of the internal combustion engine, air conveyed by an additional blower, but also recirculated exhaust gas from the internal combustion engine or a mixture of air and exhaust gas can be used as the gas.
- the mixture spray opening 78 in the radial region 77 of the sheet metal insert 74 has such a large diameter that it flows upstream from the spray openings 75 of the spray orifice plate 21 Escaping fuel, which the gas comes vertically from the gas ring gap 83 for better processing, can exit unhindered through the mixture spray opening 78 of the sheet metal insert 74.
- the sheet metal insert 74 is pressed against the spray orifice plate 21 by the upstream frustoconical section 68 of the gas encasing body 41, which at least partially abuts the inner surface 72 of the conical area 73 of the sheet metal insert 74.
- FIG. 2 clearly illustrates this clamping area as an enlarged detail from FIG. 1.
- the sheet metal insert 74 is designed in such a way that, for example, three tabs 80 (FIG. 1) adjoin the area 73 downstream, which serve to precenter the sheet metal insert 74 in the valve seat support 1.
- the tabs 80 have radial end surfaces 85, which are achieved, for example, by smooth stamping and are of good quality with regard to their surface roughness.
- a beam splitter 86 is provided in the gas containment body 41 downstream of the mixture spray opening 78 of the sheet metal insert 74.
- the jet expensive 86 runs transversely through the longitudinal axis 2 of the valve and symmetrically divides a spray chamber 87 formed by the gas-enclosing body 41 downstream of the mixture spray opening 78.
- the spray chamber 87 can first be cylindrical in accordance with the design of the gas encasing body 41 in the flow direction and then be conical or continuously cylindrical or elliptical.
- the beam splitter 86 is located, for example, at the same height as the radially extending section 63 of the gas enclosing body 41, which therefore also represents the connection of two points of the section 63 which are 180 ° apart.
- the beam splitter 86 can both be part of the gas enclosing body 41 made of plastic as a web, and can also be installed, for example, as a pin made of another material.
- Crucial in the design of the beam splitter 86 is the formation of an upper, upstream, convex splitter surface 88.
- FIG. 3 is intended to illustrate the effect of the beam splitter 86 with its convex splitter surface 88 in the case of two-jet valves with gas enclosures.
- Two or four fuel jets are generated by the two or four spray openings 25 in the spray orifice plate 21 and are sprayed into the spraying space 87 in areas formed on both sides of the beam splitter 86.
- the inventive design of the beam splitter 86 is useful not only in the case of individual fuel jets directed onto the beam splitter 86, but also when the fuel jets run past the beam splitter 86 or when they also move away from one another with increasing distance from the spray openings 25 .
- the fuel jets are hit vertically by the gas flowing out of the gas ring gap 83 immediately after they emerge from the spray openings 25. The consequence of this is that the dual radiation of the fuel jets is endangered by the gas enclosure and the two fuel jets can even merge, since the gas moves the fuel jets towards one another, as indicated by the dotted lines 90.
- the ram flow is responsible for the very compact beam splitting in the area of the beam splitter 86 and the good treatment effect of the gas enclosure due to an improved mixing of gas and fuel.
- wedge-shaped or knife-shaped beam splitters no proper two-jet radiation is achieved when surrounding the gas, since the fuel jets move towards one another again downstream of the beam splitter. Only in the direction of flow very long beam splitters with a wedge-shaped or cutting-shaped cross section achieve the same effect as the convex beam splitters 86 which have a small extension in the axial direction.
- the dash-dotted lines 91 show fuel jet profiles in two-jet valves without gas containment.
- the convex splitter surface 88 of the beam splitter 86 ensures that an equally good double radiation is created in the axial direction downstream from the beam splitter 86, despite the gas enclosure.
- the transition from the dotted line 90 to the dash-dotted line 91 is intended to illustrate this.
- FIGS. 4 to 6 and 4a to 6a schematically show exemplary embodiments for the design of the spraying chamber 87 surrounded by the gas-enclosing body 41 with a beam splitter 86, which has a circular cross section.
- the execution Example in FIG. 4 illustrates a cylindrical spraying space 87 in the area of the beam splitter 86
- FIG. 5 shows a conical spraying space 87, as can also be seen in FIGS. 1 and 3
- FIG. 6 shows an elliptical spraying space 87.
- FIGS. 4a to 6a represent top views of the spraying chambers 87 shown in FIGS. 4 to 6.
- some possible design variants of the convex beam splitters 86 are simplified and shown schematically as cross sections or top views.
- the convex splitter surface 88 is decisive in the formation of the beam splitter 86.
- the variants shown allow different beam angles of the fuel-gas mixture.
- beam splitters 86 are also conceivable which have, for example in their central region, waist-shaped constrictions (FIGS. 9, 9a, 10, 10a, 14, 14a, 15, 15a) for small beam angles or bulges (FIG. 16, 16a, 17, 17a) for larger beam inke1.
