Description
Die Erfindung geht aus von einem Zuschaltventil nach der Gattung des Patentanspruchs 1.The invention relates to a connecting valve according to the Genus of claim 1.
Es ist schon ein Kraftstoffeinspritzsystem für Brennkraftmaschinen mit einer Kraftstoff aus einem Tank saugenden und an eine Hochdruckpumpe fördernden Niederdruckpumpe bekannt (DE 44 01 074 A1). In der Verbindungsleitung zwischen den beiden Pumpen ist ein Zuschaltventil mit einem druckfederbelasteten hülsenförmigen Ventilkolben angeordnet. Dieser weist in seinem Boden eine Drosselbohrung auf, durch welche die Niederdruckpumpe ständig mit einem Nockenwellenraum der als Radialkolbenpumpe ausgebildeten Hochdruckpumpe in Verbindung steht. Der Nockenwellenraum wiederum ist an den Kraftstofftank angeschlossen.It's already a fuel injection system for Internal combustion engines with a fuel from a tank sucking and conveying to a high pressure pump Low pressure pump known (DE 44 01 074 A1). In the Connection line between the two pumps is a Connecting valve with a sleeve-shaped, spring loaded Valve piston arranged. This has one in its bottom Throttle bore through which the low pressure pump constantly with a camshaft chamber as a radial piston pump trained high pressure pump is connected. The The camshaft space is in turn attached to the fuel tank connected.
Der Ventilkolben ist durch den Druck des von der Niederdruckpumpe geförderten Kraftstoffs entgegen der Kraft der Druckfeder verschiebbar. Bei Überschreiten einer Druckschwelle gibt der Ventilkolben eine Leitungsverbindung zu Pumpenelementen der Hochdruckpumpe frei. The valve piston is driven by the pressure of the Low pressure pump fuel delivered against the force the compression spring can be moved. If one is exceeded Pressure threshold gives the valve piston a line connection to pump elements of the high pressure pump free.
Das Zuschaltventil hat mehrere Funktionen: zum einen kann der niederdruckseitige Teil des Kraftstoffeinspritzsystems auf dem Weg über die Drosselbohrung und den Nockenwellenraum entlüftet werden. Zum anderen wird durch die Drosselbohrung der Nockenwellenraum mit als Schmierstoff dienendem Kraftstoff versorgt. Darüber hinaus soll das Zuschaltventil bei einem Defekt des hochdruckseitigen Systemteils als Absperrventil dienen, um die Brennkraftmaschine zu schützen. Nachteilig ist jedoch bei dieser bekannten Ausführungsform, daß der nicht von der Hochdruckpumpe abgenommene Kraftstoffstrom eine unwirtschaftliche Betriebsweise der Niederdruckpumpe zur Folge hat.The connection valve has several functions: on the one hand it can the low-pressure part of the fuel injection system on the way through the throttle bore and the camshaft space be vented. The other is through the throttle bore the camshaft chamber with lubricant Fuel supplied. In addition, the connection valve should in the event of a defect in the high-pressure system part as Shut-off valve serve to protect the internal combustion engine. However, a disadvantage of this known embodiment is that the one not removed from the high pressure pump Fuel flow an uneconomical mode of operation Low pressure pump.
Das erfindungsgemäße Zuschaltventil mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 1 hat demgegenüber den Vorteil, daß es, außerhalb der unmittelbaren Leitungsverbindung zwischen der Niederdruckpumpe und der Hochdruckpumpe liegend, neben der Entlüftung des niederdruckseitigen Kraftstoffeinspritzsystemteils und der Bemessung des Schmierstoffstromes zu der Nockenwelle der Hochdruckpumpe auch die Absteuerung des nicht von der Hochdruckpumpe abgenommenen Kraftstoff-Volumenstroms unmittelbar zur Saugseite der Niederdruckpumpe sicherstellt. Dabei steuert das Zuschaltventil zwei Kraftstoffkreisläufe, nämlich den der Schmierung sowie Kühlung der Hochdruckpumpe und den der Rückführung des abgesteuerten Kraftstoffs dienenden, wobei der erstgenannte Kreislauf beim Zuschalten des zweiten Kreislaufs weitgehend unbeeinflußt bleibt. Darüber hinaus wird durch die Rückführung des abgesteuerten Kraftstoffs unmittelbar zur Saugseite der Niederdruckpumpe deren Förderleistung gesteigert, da ein zum Filtern des Kraftstoffs erforderlicher Vorfilter des Systems umgangen werden kann.The connection valve according to the invention with the features of Compared to claim 1 has the advantage that outside the direct line connection between the Low pressure pump and the high pressure pump lying next to the Venting the low pressure side Fuel injection system part and the dimensioning of the Lubricant flow to the camshaft of the high pressure pump also the shutdown of the not by the high pressure pump decreased fuel volume flow immediately to Ensures the suction side of the low pressure pump. It controls the connection valve two fuel circuits, namely the the lubrication and cooling of the high pressure pump and the Serve the return of the de-fueled fuel, whereby the first-mentioned circuit when switching on the second Circulation remains largely unaffected. Furthermore is by returning the de-fueled fuel directly to the suction side of the low pressure pump Conveying capacity increased, because a for filtering the Bypassed the system's fuel pre-filter can be.

Die Ausgestaltung des Ventils ist von Vorteil, weil mit einem einzigen bewegbaren Ventilglied mehrere Ventilfunktionen ausgeübt werden. Das Ventil ist außerdem komplett als Baueinheit vormontierbar und prüfbar. Aufgrund seiner Anordnung im Gehäuse der Hochdruckpumpe ist der Einbau des Ventils in das System mit wenig Aufwand verbunden, insbesondere ist lediglich eine Abdichtung nach außen erforderlich, da das Einschraubgewinde die Verbindungen des Pumpengehäuses zum Nockenwellenraum und zur Saugseite der Niederdruckpumpe in ausreichendem Maß hydraulisch voneinander trennt. Damit ist das Zuschaltventil mit einem relativ kurz bauenden Ventilgehäuse herstellbar.The design of the valve is advantageous because with a single movable valve member several Valve functions are exercised. The valve is also completely pre-assembled and testable. by virtue of its arrangement in the housing of the high pressure pump is the Installation of the valve in the system with little effort connected, in particular only a seal after required on the outside because the screw thread Connections of the pump housing to the camshaft space and Adequate suction side of the low pressure pump hydraulically separated. This is the connection valve can be manufactured with a relatively short valve housing.

Das in Figur 2 dargestellte Ausführungsbeispiel des
Zuschaltventils 16 zeigt ein als hohlzylindrisches
Einschraubteil ausgebildetes, überwiegend in einer
Sacklochbohrung 31 des Pumpengehäuses 26 der Hochdruckpumpe
25 aufgenommenes Ventilgehäuse 32, in dessen gestufter
Durchgangsbohrung 33 ein längsbewegbarer Ventilkolben 34,

sind. Das Ventilgehäuse 32 weist einen Außengewindeabschnitt
37 auf, mit dem es unter Angriff an einem
ventilgehäuseseitigen Sechskant 38 in die Sacklochbohrung 31
eingeschraubt ist. In der gezeichneten Stellung des
Ventilgehäuses 32 greift dessen in der Zeichnung unten

Sacklochbohrung 31 an. Seitens der Mündung 41 der
Sacklochbohrung 31 ist das Ventilgehäuse 32 mit einem
Dichtring 42 abgedichtet.The embodiment shown in Figure 2
Das Ventilgehäuse 32 ist zwischen dem Dichtring 42 und dem
Bohrungsgrund 40 mit zwei die Durchgangsbohrung 33
kreuzenden Querbohrungen 45 und 46 versehen. Die
dichtringseitige Querbohrung 45 steht mit einer ersten
Abströmbohrung 47 des Pumpengehäuses 26 in Verbindung. Die
erste Abströmbohrung 47 ist Teil der Zuführleitung 27 zum
Nockenwellenraum 25 der Hochdruckpumpe 12 (siehe Figur 1).
Die zweite, dichtringferne Querbohrung 46 des Ventilgehäuses
32 steht mit einer zweiten Abströmbohrung 48 des
Pumpengehäuses 26 in Verbindung. Die zweite Abströmbohrung
48 ist Teil der zur Saugseite der Niederdruckpumpe 11
führenden Rückführleitung 28. Stirnseitig des Ventilgehäuses
32 steht eine Zuströmbohrung 49 mit der Durchgangsbohrung 33
in Verbindung. Die Zuströmbohrung 49 ist an die von der
Niederdruckpumpe 11 zur Hochdruckpumpe 12 führende
Niederdruckleitung 19 angeschlossen. Die zweite
Abströmbohrung 48 ist durch den dichten Angriff des
Ventilgehäuses 32 am Bohrungsgrund 40 völlig von der
Zuströmbohrung 49 getrennt. Eine ausreichende hydraulische
Abdichtung ist zwischen der ersten Abströmbohrung 47 und der
zweiten Abströmbohrung 48 durch die Schraubverbindung
(Außengewindeabschnitt 37) zwischen dem Ventilgehäuse 32 und
dem Pumpengehäuse 26 erzielt.The valve housing 32 is between the
Der hülsenförmig ausgebildete Ventilkolben 34 ist passend in
der Durchgangsbohrung 33 des Ventilgehäuses 32 aufgenommen.
In der Ruhestellung des Zuschaltventils 16 ist der
Ventilkolben 34 mit einem umfangsseitig angeordneten
Sprengring 51 an einer Stufe 52 der Durchgangsbohrung 33
aufgrund der Federkraft der am Ventilkolben angreifenden
Schraubendruckfeder 35 abgestützt. Deren Vorspannung ist
durch entsprechend tiefes Einpressen der Kugel 36 in die
Durchgangsbohrung 33 eingestellt. Der Ventilkolben 34 hat in
seinem federseitigen Kolbenboden 53 eine Drosselbohrung 54,
durch welche der federseitige Abschnitt der
Durchgangsbohrung 33 mit dem Innenraum 55 des Ventilkolbens
34 in Verbindung steht. Umfangsseitig hat der Ventilkolben
34 eine Ringnut 56, welche durch eine oder mehrere
Drosselbohrungen 57 mit dem Innenraum 55 verbunden ist. Die
Ringnut 56 des Ventilkolbens 34 bildet eine erste
Steuerkante 58, der seitens der Stufe 52 der
Durchgangsbohrung 33 eine hohlkegelförmige erste
Steuerkontur 59 des Ventilgehäuses 32 zugeordnet ist. Der
Ventilkolben 34 hat an seiner federabgewandten Stirnseite
eine zweite Steuerkante 60, welche mit der eine zweite
Steuerkontur 61 bildenden Querbohrung 46 des Ventilgehäuses
32 zusammenwirkt.The sleeve-
In der gezeichneten Ruhestellung des Zuschaltventils 16
sperrt der Ventilkolben 34 die Verbindung zwischen der
Zuströmbohrung 49 durch die Drosselbohrung 57 zur ersten
Abströmbohrung 47 sowie von der Zuströmbohrung 49 zur
zweiten Abströmbohrung 48 ab. Die Zuströmbohrung 49 ist
jedoch ständig durch die Drosselbohrung 54 im Kolbenboden 53
mit dem Nockenwellenraum 25 der Hochdruckpumpe 12 verbunden.
Bei Anlauf der Niederdruckpumpe 11 kann im Niederdrucksystem
befindliche Luft durch die Drosselbohrung 54 im Kolbenboden
56 des Ventilkolbens 34 durch die erste Abströmbohrung 47 in
den Nockenwellenraum 25 und von diesem durch die
Tankablaufleitung 21 abströmen. Hiermit wird eine Entlüftung
des Niederdrucksystems wirkungsvoll erzielt.In the drawn rest position of the connecting
Mit ansteigendem Förderdruck des durch die Niederdruckpumpe
11 aus dem Tank 18 entnommenen und durch die Zuströmbohrung
49 dem Zuschaltventil 16 zugeführten Kraftstoffs wird der
Ventilkolben 34 aus seiner Ruhestellung entgegen der
Federkraft der Druckfeder 35 verschoben. Bei Überschreiten
einer ersten Druckschwelle gelangt die erste Steuerkante 58
des Ventilkolbens 34 in den Bereich der Steuerkontur 59, so
daß ein Kraftstoffstrom von der Zuströmbohrung 49 durch die
Drosselbohrung 57 des Ventilkolbens 34 zur ersten
Abströmbohrung 47 und weiter in den Nockenwellenraum 25 der
Hochdruckpumpe 12 fließen kann. Das Zuschaltventil 16 wirkt
bei kleinem Hub des Ventilkolbens 34 als Stromregelventil,
mit dem ein zur Schmierung und Kühlung der Hochdruckpumpe 12
ausreichender Kraftstoff-Volumenstrom eingestellt wird. Zu
diesem ist die durch die parallel zur Drosselbohrung 57
verlaufende Drosselbohrung 54 im Kolbenboden 53 gelangende
Teilkraftstoffmenge hinzuzurechnen.With increasing delivery pressure of the
Mit weitersteigendem Förderdruck der Niederdruckpumpe 11
gibt der in Richtung auf die Kugel 36 längsverschobene
Ventilkolben 34 mit Überschreiten einer gegenüber der ersten
Druckschwelle höheren zweiten Druckschwelle mit seiner
zweiten Steuerkante 60 die Querbohrung 46 des Ventilgehäuses
32 frei. Von der Hochdruckpumpe 12 nicht abgenommener
Kraftstoff wird durch die zweite Abströmbohrung 48 und die
Rückführleitung 28 unmittelbar zur Saugseite der
Niederdruckpumpe 11 abgesteuert. Das Zuschaltventil 16 wirkt
nun zusätzlich als Druckregelventil, mit dem der
zuströmseitige Druck weitgehend schwankungsfrei gehalten
wird. Die Druckregelung wirkt sich in vorteilhafter Weise
auf das Mengen-Regelventil 15 aus, weil ein diesem Ventil
druckschwankungsarm zugeführter Kraftstoff dessen
Arbeitsweise unterstützt.As the delivery pressure of the low-
