Definitions

  • the invention relates to a fuel injector with an integrated spark plug according to the preamble of the main claim.
  • a fuel injector with an integrated spark plug according to the type of the main claim is already known.
  • the fuel injection valve with integrated spark plug is used to inject fuel directly into the combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine and to ignite the fuel injected into the combustion chamber.
  • the compact integration of a fuel injector with a spark plug saves installation space on the cylinder head of the internal combustion engine.
  • the known fuel injection valve with an integrated spark plug has a valve body which, together with a valve closing body which can be actuated by means of a valve needle, forms a sealing seat, to which an injection opening opening on an end face of the valve body facing the combustion chamber is connected.
  • the valve body is insulated against high voltage by a ceramic insulation body from a housing body that can be screwed into the cylinder head of the internal combustion engine.
  • a ground electrode is located on the housing body in order to form a counter potential to the valve body to which high voltage is applied. When a sufficient high voltage is applied to the valve body, a sparkover occurs between the valve body and the ground electrode connected to the housing body.
  • EP 0 632 198 A1 discloses a further fuel injection valve with an integrated spark plug for injecting fuel directly into a combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine and for igniting the fuel injected into the combustion chamber.
  • the spark plug-injection valve combination has a valve body which, together with a valve closing body, forms a sealing seat, which is adjoined by at least one outlet opening opening on an end face of the valve body facing the combustion chamber.
  • the spark plug-injection valve combination has a housing body which is insulated from the valve body, an ignition electrode being provided on the housing body in order to generate a sparkover between the valve body and the ignition electrode.
  • the ignition electrode and the valve body are shaped such that the sparkover occurs between the end face of the valve body facing the combustion chamber and the ignition electrode.
  • the one ignition electrode is equipped in such a way that it comes from the housing body first parallel to the axis and then bent at a right angle to the longitudinal valve axis and thus also to the corresponding end face of the valve body, so that the end of the ignition electrode is parallel to the end face of the valve body.
  • the fuel injector according to the invention with an integrated spark plug with the characterizing features of the main claim has the advantage that the position of the sparkover with respect to the position of the spray opening is reproducible and clearly defined. This ensures reliable ignition of the sprayed fuel jet.
  • the position of the flashover and thus the ignition point can be placed in the area of the sprayed fuel jet with the least cyclical jet fluctuations. The point in time at which the fuel jet ignites therefore exhibits extremely small fluctuations from one injection cycle to the next.
  • By positioning the flashover or the ignition point in the vicinity of the spray opening sooting and coking of the spray opening are counteracted and thus a change in the jet geometry caused thereby is counteracted.
  • the edge for determining the position of the sparkover can be provided either on the end face of the valve body or on the ignition electrodes.
  • the edge can be formed on the end face of the valve body by an elevation or depression. It is advantageous if the valve body has a rounded flank area on the elevation in order to direct the air flow specifically to the ignition point.
  • One or more pin-like ignition electrodes can be attached to the housing body in such a way that they are inclined at a predetermined angle of inclination in the direction of the end face of the valve body.
  • An edge of the ignition electrodes forms the point with the smallest distance from the end face of the valve body and thus defines the ignition point. If the edge defining the ignition point is formed on the end face of the valve body, a simple one can also be used as the ignition electrode wire spanning the end face of the valve body are used, which represents a particularly inexpensive embodiment.
  • the ignition electrode can be configured in a ring shape and have an opening for the fuel jet sprayed off from the spray opening.
  • the edge defining the ignition point is formed at the opening of the ring-shaped ignition electrode.
  • the opening of the ring-shaped ignition electrode widens conically in the spray direction of the fuel jet, the opening angle of the ignition electrode being advantageously adapted to the opening angle of the fuel jet.
  • a design of the holder for the ignition electrode with radially distributed rod-shaped projections and radially arranged pins guided radially to the projections ensures a sufficient radial flow of the combustion air and supports the reliable ignition of the fuel jet.
