Definitions

  • the invention relates to a coupling for fuel lines or the like, in which a first coupling part connected to a first fuel line, which is provided with an insertion section and an internal flow channel for the fuel opening into the insertion section, with its insertion section into an insertion section second coupling part is used, which is connected to a second fuel line and is provided with an inner flow channel for the fuel, which opens into the plug-on section, the two fluid-tightly inserted coupling parts, which form a through-channel for the fuel, are connected to one another by a holding device.
  • Such couplings are used according to WO 90/03510 within a fuel supply device of a fuel injection system of a two-row internal combustion engine.
  • the couplings in each case connect one end of a fuel line, which runs as a rigid tube and runs transversely to the cylinder rows of the internal combustion engine, to one end of the two fuel distribution lines, which run parallel to the cylinder rows and each of which accommodates the fuel injection valves of a row of cylinders of the internal combustion engine arranged in a row.
  • the tube end of the rigid cross tube provided with an outwardly projecting annular bead forms the plug-in section of the first coupling part and one the plug-in section receiving sleeve at one end of the respective fuel distribution line, the push-on section of the second coupling part.
  • a sealing ring sits on the pipe end of the insertion section and seals the axial through channel of the coupling to the outside.
  • This consists of the annular bead of the plug-in section arranged inside the sleeve of the push-on section and of an outer stop which is attached behind the annular bead after it has been inserted into the sleeve.
  • This stop can be formed by a cylindrical collar of the sleeve, which is bent inward behind the annular bead, or by a holder placed behind the annular bead on the sleeve, from which the stop projects into the interior of the sleeve.
  • the known coupling allows the rigid cross tube to be rotated indefinitely relative to the respective fuel distribution line.
  • the two fuel distribution lines each connected to the cross tube via such a coupling, can be aligned with their fuel injection valves to the respective row of cylinders of the internal combustion engine.
  • the unlimited rotatability between cross tube and fuel distribution line also has disadvantages.
  • the spatial alignment of the parts that can be rotated relative to one another must therefore be checked and an incorrect alignment corrected before the attachment or during the attachment of the fuel supply device to the internal combustion engine by additional straightening work.
  • the mutually rotatable parts must be handled separately and brought individually into the respective intended position.
  • the unlimited rotatability of the coupling connecting the cross tube to the respective fuel distribution line therefore makes mounting the fuel supply device on the internal combustion engine considerably more difficult and requires additional checking and straightening work.
  • WO 90/03510 shows variously designed couplings, with some of the couplings either not providing sufficient mechanical strength to prevent the plug-in section from being torn out of the plug-on section, or a large number of complex parts which require increased assembly effort.
  • the object of the invention is to eliminate these disadvantages and to provide a coupling for fuel lines or the like which, in the case of coupling parts which are inserted in a fluid-tight manner, permits mutual alignment of the two coupling parts and at the same time limits their extent.
  • a coupling for fuel lines or the like in which a first coupling part, which is connected to a first fuel line and is provided with an insertion section and an inner flow channel for the fuel opening into the insertion section, with its insertion section into an attachment - Section of a second coupling part is used, which is connected to a second fuel line and is provided with an internal flow channel for the fuel opening into the plug-on section, the two fluid-tightly inserted and a through-channel for the fuel-forming coupling parts being connected to one another by a holding device.
  • this coupling is characterized in that the holding device comprises at least one pair of locking elements which can be pushed into one another when the two coupling parts are inserted into one another and are each arranged on a coupling part, between which, in the case of coupling parts which are inserted into one another in a fluid-tight manner, a movement play limited to a predefinable angle of rotation is provided and that the holding device comprises at least two locking elements which, in the case of coupling parts which are inserted into one another in a fluid-tight manner and locking elements which are pushed into one another, can be brought into engagement with one another in order to hold the two coupling parts together.
  • This configuration limits the extent of the possible mutual alignment of the two nested coupling parts, which form an outwardly sealed passage for the fuel, to a predetermined size. This is determined by the freedom of movement existing between the locking elements, which is composed of the respectively desired twisting path of the two coupling parts and the manufacturing-related manufacturing tolerances of the two coupling parts or their locking elements. That remains when the coupling parts are inserted into each other in a fluid-tight manner permanent peripheral movement between the locking elements can be matched to the desired relative rotation of the two coupling parts. Any twisting of a coupling part in relation to the other coupling part beyond the movement play of the locking elements is effectively excluded.
  • the coupling according to the invention establishes a fluid-tight connection free of mechanical stresses between the two fuel lines. This is advantageous when connecting a fuel line formed by a metal pipe to a fuel line made from plastic.
  • the coupling part connected to the metal tube can also consist of metal and the coupling part connected to the plastic line can also consist of plastic. In such a coupling, the metal locking elements of one coupling part engage with play in the plastic locking elements of the other coupling part.
