Definitions
- the invention relates to an injector for a common rail injection system for internal combustion engines with a valve control chamber delimited by the end face of a nozzle needle, the fuel inflow via an inlet throttle and the fuel outflow via an outlet throttle, and a closing piston being present in the valve control chamber.
- Valve control room is a control element and a closing piston.
- a disadvantage of this type of construction is that the closing piston and the control element with the inlet throttle and the outlet throttle are arranged one behind the other, so that the overall length of the injector despite the glass of the
- Valve piston is still comparatively large. In addition, the closing forces at the end of the injection are relatively small are .
- the object of the invention is to provide an injector which is of particularly compact construction, is of simple construction and in which the closing forces are high at the end of the injection.
- an injector for a common rail injection system for internal combustion engines with a valve control chamber delimited by the end face of a nozzle needle, the fuel supply being via an inlet valve and the fuel outflow via an outlet throttle, and a closing piston being present in the valve control chamber which has a larger diameter than the nozzle needle.
- This injector has the advantage that its overall length is particularly small because there is only one closing piston in the valve control chamber.
- the closing force at the end of the injection is particularly large because the diameter of the closing piston is larger than the diameter of the nozzle needle.
- a variant of the injector according to the invention provides that the closing piston is arranged between the inlet throttle and the outlet throttle on the one hand and the nozzle needle on the other hand, so that the closing piston also takes on control tasks.
- the locking piston has a first bore running between its end faces, so that the
- Displacement work which the nozzle needle when opening the Injector against the pressure in the valve control room must be low.
- the closing piston has a throttle bore running between its end faces, so that after the end of the injection, the closing piston is moved back to its starting position at a defined speed.
- a stroke stop is provided in the valve control chamber, which limits the displaceability of the closing piston in the direction of the inlet throttle and the outlet throttle, so that the fuel can flow freely into and out of this section of the valve control chamber.
- Injection is moved to its starting position by the spring force.
- the closing spring is arranged in the valve control chamber, so that a simple structure is ensured and the spring force acts directly on the closing piston.
- the closing spring is supported against the end face of the nozzle needle, so that the nozzle needle is simple in design.
- the nozzle needle has a pin projecting in the direction of its longitudinal axis and beyond its end face, so that the pin
- Closing piston and the end face of the nozzle needle limited Section of the valve control chamber does not fall below a minimum volume specified by the length of the pin. This minimum volume causes a certain elasticity or "softness" of the injector due to the elasticity of the fuel in the valve control space and the walls of the valve control space.
- the first bore of the closing piston can be closed by the pin, so that when the injection nozzle is open, the pressure in the valve control chamber between the closing piston and the nozzle needle does not drop more than necessary and the leakage losses between the nozzle needle and the valve control chamber are reduced.
- the first bore of the closing piston has a sealing seat on the end face facing the nozzle needle and the pin has a corresponding sealing cone, so that a particularly good seal between the pin and the closing piston is achieved.
- One variant provides that the inlet throttle and / or the outlet throttle are arranged in a housing of the injector, so that the dimensions of the injector are further reduced.
- FIG. 2 an enlarged section X from FIG. 1 1 shows an injector according to the invention.
- fuel 3 Via a high-pressure connection 1, fuel 3 is fed via an inlet duct 5 to an injection nozzle 7 and via an inlet throttle 9 into a valve control chamber 11.
- the valve control chamber 11 is connected to a fuel return 17 via an outlet throttle 13, which can be opened by a solenoid valve 15.
- the fuel 3 is shown in FIG. 1 as a black area.
- the valve control chamber 11 is delimited by a nozzle needle 21.
- the nozzle needle 21 prevents the pressurized fuel 3 from flowing between the injections into the combustion chamber, not shown. This is done in that the nozzle needle 21 is pressed into a nozzle needle seat 22 and seals the inlet channel 5 against the combustion chamber, not shown.
- the nozzle needle 21 has a cross-sectional change 23 from a larger diameter 25 to a smaller diameter 27. With its larger diameter 25, the nozzle needle 21 is guided in a housing 29.
- the cross-sectional change 23 delimits a pressure space 31 of the injection nozzle 7
- FIG. 2 shows an enlarged section X of FIG. 1 of the injector according to the invention.
- the valve control chamber 11 is delimited by an end face 33 of the nozzle needle 21.
- a closing piston 34 which has a first, larger bore 35 and a second smaller throttle bore 36.
- the stroke of the closing piston 34 in the direction of the solenoid valve 15 is limited by a stroke stop 37.
- a pin 38 with a conical tip protrudes from the end face 33 of the nozzle needle 21 and fits into a correspondingly shaped sealing seat 39 of the closing piston 34.
- FIG. 2 is a state of Injector shown in which the closing piston 34 abuts the stroke stop 37 and the nozzle needle rests on its nozzle needle seat 22, not shown in FIG. 2. In this position, there is a gap between the pin 38 and the sealing seat 39 of the closing piston 34, so that the fuel 3, not shown in FIG. 2, through the first bore 35 of the closing piston 34 into the part of the valve control chamber located between the closing piston 34 and the nozzle needle 22 11 can flow.
- Cross-sectional change 23 If the high-pressure pump (not shown) of the fuel injection system is not driven because the engine is stopped, a closing spring 40 acting on the end face 33 of the nozzle needle 21 presses the nozzle needle 21 onto the nozzle needle seat 22 shown in FIG. 1 and thus closes the injection nozzle 7 or the injector.
- control quantity required in addition to the fuel quantity injected into the combustion chamber reaches the fuel return 17 via the inlet throttle 9, the valve control chamber 11 and the outlet throttle 13.
- control quantity there is also a leak at the nozzle needle guide.
- the control and leakage quantities can be up to 50 mm 3 / stroke. They are returned to the fuel tank, not shown, via the solenoid valve 15.
- the outlet throttle 13 is closed by the ball 41 of the solenoid valve 15 in a manner not explained in detail.
- By closing the outlet throttle 13 builds up in a section 43 delimited by the closing piston 34 and outlet throttle 13
- This pressure exerts a hydraulic force on the nozzle needle 21 via the end face 45 of the closing piston 34 and the pin 38 resting on the sealing seat 39.
- the nozzle needle 21 closes.
- the closing movement takes place very quickly and with great force.
- the closing movement flows in Small part of the fuel flowing into section 43 of the valve control chamber 11 through the throttle bore 36 into the valve control chamber 11 delimited by the closing piston 34 and the end face 33 of the nozzle needle 21. The closing movement takes place so quickly that before reaching a
- the closing speed of the nozzle needle 21 is essentially determined by the flow through the inlet throttle 9.
- Annular gap flows between the closing piston 34 and the housing 29.
- the second end face 47 of the closing piston 34 can also have a shoulder, which is used, for example, to guide the closing spring 40.
