Definitions
- the invention relates to a fuel injector according to the preamble of the main claim.
- Changes in length of a piezoelectric actuator of a fuel injector are usually compensated for by temperature influences by means of hydraulic devices or by the choice of suitable material combinations.
- a fuel injector is known from DE 197 02 066 C2, in which the change in length of the actuator is compensated for by a corresponding combination of materials.
- Fuel injection valve has an actuator which is guided in the valve housing under spring pretension and cooperates with an actuating part consisting of an actuating body and a head part, the
- the headboard rests on the piezo actuator and the
- Actuating body passes through an inner recess of the actuator.
- the actuating body is operatively connected to a valve needle.
- Actuator actuates the valve needle against the spray direction.
- the actuator and the actuating body have at least approximately the same length and are made of a ceramic material or of a material similar to ceramic with respect to the thermal expansion. Due to the same lengths and coefficients of thermal expansion of the materials used, e.g. B. INVAR, it is achieved that the actuator and the Betat Trentskorper expand evenly through the action of heat and thereby have no negative impact m in relation to the opening and closing tents. An undesired opening of the fuel injector between the switching pulses is also avoided.
- the fuel injection valve according to the invention with the characterizing features of the main claim has the advantage that the temperature compensation is independent of the thermal expansion coefficient of the piezoceramic.
- the thermal expansion is compensated for by damping elements with a speed-dependent transmission behavior for impulses and is therefore independent of the choice of material for the actuating element and valve housing. This will make one ensures safe and precise operation of the fuel injector.
- the encapsulation and pretensioning of the actuator in an actuator housing are advantageous, since the thermal change in length of the actuator does not have to be compensated for by complex material combinations, but is compensated for by a pretensioning spring.
- the overall length of the actuator housing is not influenced by thermal changes in length. Therefore, only a change in position of the actuator housing relative to the valve housing has to be compensated for by decoupling the actuator and the valve housing.
- Fig. 1 shows an axial section through a first embodiment of a fuel injector according to the invention
- Fig. 2 shows an axial section through a second embodiment of an inventive
- Fig. 1 shows an axial sectional view of a first embodiment of an inventive
- Fuel injector 1 This is an inwardly opening fuel injector 1.
- an annular actuator 3 with a central recess 7, which consists of disk-shaped, piezoelectric or magnetostrictive elements 4, and a biasing spring 5 are arranged in an actuator housing 2.
- the actuator 3 is actuated by an electronic control device via a plug contact, not shown.
- a plug contact for simplification, only a single connecting wire 6 is shown in FIG. 1.
- the actuator housing 2 consists of a sleeve 8 and an actuator housing cover 9.
- the actuator housing cover 9 bears against a first end 10 of the biasing spring 5.
- a first end face 11 of the actuator 3 bears against an injection-side end of the sleeve 8, the actuator 3 being radially surrounded by the sleeve 8.
- a second end face 12 of the actuator 3 and a second end 13 of the biasing spring 5 are supported on an intermediate central flange 14.
- the actuator 3 is biased via the sleeve 8 by the biasing spring 5.
- the central flange 14 is preferably non-positively connected to an actuating body 16 by a weld 15.
- the actuating body 16 is arranged in the central recess 7 of the actuator 3 and is connected to a valve needle 17, on which a valve closing body 18 is formed.
- a valve closing body 18 is lifted off a valve seat surface 19
- fuel is sprayed through an injection opening 20 formed in a valve seat body 29.
- the actuating body 16 is supported at the end on a return spring 21.
- the fuel flows through a fuel inlet 22 of a valve housing 23 which is made close to the sealing seat and via an intermediate space 24 between the valve needle 17 and the valve housing 23 to the sealing seat.
- the damping members 25a, 25b consist of a plastic, in particular uncrosslinked silicone rubber, which behaves almost statically at a high rate of deformation and is elastically or plastically deformable at a low rate of deformation.
- the damping members 25a, 25b have mechanical springs 27, the damping behavior of which is superimposed on the damping behavior of the plastic.
- the plastic is advantageously encapsulated in a casing 26.
- the attenuators 25a, 25b buffer the actuator housing 2 against the valve housing 23.
- the damping members 25a, 25b located between the valve housing 23 and the actuator housing 2 behave like an incompressible solid, since the actuator 3 expands too quickly when it is actuated. than that the attenuators 25a, 25b could be compressed.
- the attenuators 25a, 25b behave almost statically, whereby the pulse triggered by the electrical actuation voltage on the Actuator 16 is transmitted and the fuel injector 1 opens.
- a fuel injector 1 experiences large temperature fluctuations during operation. On the one hand, the entire fuel injection valve 1 heats up through contact with the combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine, and on the other hand, local temperature changes occur, for example. B. by the power loss when deforming the piezoelectric actuator 3 or by electrical charge movement. This results in a thermal reduction in the length of the disc-shaped elements 4, since piezoelectric ceramics have negative coefficients of thermal expansion, that is to say they contract when heated and expand when cooled.
- Such a shortening of the actuator 3 by heating is compensated for within the actuator housing 2 by the expansion of the prestressed biasing spring 5.
- the shortening of the actuator 3 leads to an extension of the biasing spring 5. Since the central flange 14 is locked to the actuating body 16 via the weld seam 15, the change in length of the actuator 3 results in a change in position of the actuator housing 2.
- This change in position of the actuator housing 2 is caused by the buffering of the actuator housing 2 within the valve housing 23 is compensated by the damping elements 25a, 25b, since in the event of quasi-static changes in the position of the actuator housing 2 relative to the valve housing 23, the movement of the actuator housing 2 takes place so slowly due to temperature influences that the damping elements 25a, 25b are deformed elastically or plastically.
- the actuator 3 rests on its second end face 12 against an actuator housing cover 30, on which a pretensioning spring 5 is supported, which is clamped between the actuator housing cover 30 and a valve housing cover 28.
- the actuator 3 is supported with its first end face 11 on a flange 31 which is operatively connected to the valve housing 23 by a weld seam 32.
- the actuator body 16 is attached to the actuator housing cover 30 and is passed through the central recess 7 of the actuator 3.
- the end of the actuating body 16 projects into a valve sleeve 33.
- a return spring 21 and a damping element 25 are encapsulated in the valve sleeve 33 in such a way that the return spring 21 and the damping element 25 are supported on an intermediate valve needle flange 34.
- the return spring 21 is clamped between a cover plate 38 of the valve sleeve 33 and the valve needle flange 34.
- the valve needle flange 34 is formed in one piece with the valve needle 17, which projects through a recess 35 in a base plate 37 of the valve sleeve 33.
- the valve needle 17 is guided through a valve needle guide 36.
- the end of the valve needle 17 is formed by the valve closing body 18, which forms a sealing seat with the valve seat surface 19.
- the fuel is supplied via a lateral fuel inlet 22 and flows through an intermediate space 24 between the valve needle 17 and the valve housing 23 to the sealing seat.
- At least one spray opening 20 is formed in the valve seat body 29.
- the piezoelectric elements 4 of the actuator 3 expand. Since the actuator 3 rests with its first end face 11 on the flange 31, which is firmly connected to the valve housing 23 via the weld seam 32, it expands in the stroke direction and takes the actuator body 16 m in the stroke direction.
- the actuating body connected to the valve sleeve 33 m 16 then, due to the hard transmission behavior of the damping element 25, takes the valve needle 17 with it via the valve needle flange 34 and thereby opens the fuel injection valve 1.
- the hard transmission behavior of the attenuator 25 is due to the high switching speed of the actuator 3.
- the movement of the actuating body 16 takes place when the actuator 3 is actuated so quickly that the damping member 25 behaves like an mcompressible solid and transmits the impulse to the valve needle flange 34 and the valve needle 17.
- the fuel injection valve 1 is also subject to thermal expansion.
- the attenuator 25 shows a soft transmission behavior.
- the actuating body 16 is displaced by a quasi-static thermal change in length of the actuator 3, the movement is compensated by the damping member 25 by compressing the damping member 25 and pressing the valve closing body 18 via the valve needle flange 34 through the biasing spring 5 against the valve seat surface 19.
- the invention is not limited to the exemplary embodiments shown, but can also be implemented with a large number of other designs of fuel injection valves 1.
