Definitions
- the invention relates to a fuel injector having a nozzle body having a first and a second group of spray holes, a first and a second nozzle needle and a separate pressure chamber for each nozzle needle, so that they independently between a closed position in which the corresponding injection needle associated injection holes are closed, and an injection position are adjustable, in which the corresponding injection holes are opened.
- the invention also relates to a method for operating a fuel injection nozzle.
- a fuel injection nozzle of the type mentioned is known.
- the injection holes of a group are each arranged along a circle, with an inner circle and an outer circle concentric therewith.
- the nozzle needle associated with the outer spray holes is designed as a hollow cylinder, and the nozzle needle associated with the inner spray holes is arranged in the interior of the hollow nozzle needle.
- a separating sleeve is arranged, which is acted upon by a compression spring in contact with a sealing seat in the nozzle body, which is formed between the two injection hole circles.
- the inner injection holes are used for pre-injection, while the outer injection holes are provided for main injection. In any case, the separating sleeve ensures during opening of the nozzle needles that the two groups of spray holes remain separated.
- a disadvantage of this known construction is the comparatively high construction costs. Since the spray holes of the two groups are very close to each other, both the two nozzle needles and the separating sleeve must be accommodated in a very small space.
- an injection valve which has a nozzle body with a first and a second group of spray holes, wherein the injection holes are opened or closed by two nozzle needles guided one inside the other.
- the nozzle needles are controlled separately.
- the object of the invention is to develop an injector of the type mentioned in such a way that a simpler structure is achieved. Furthermore, a flexible use of the two groups of spray holes to be made possible by a suitable control of the two nozzle needles. The object of the invention is also to provide a method for operating an injection nozzle of the type mentioned.
- a stop chamber is provided for at least one of the nozzle needles, which is provided with a hydraulic connection.
- a hydraulic stroke stop for the corresponding nozzle needle is created, which delimits the opening movement of the nozzle needle gentler than a conventional mechanical stroke stop.
- a longer life of the nozzle needle is achieved.
- the method according to claim 4 offers the advantage that any of the various injection holes can be used for both the pre- and the main injection. In this way, a Vario bin can be achieved, since by appropriate control of one of the two nozzle needles or both nozzle needles, the total cross-sectional area of the injection holes can be adapted to the respective injection. If a long time only one row of holes is operated, can be prevented by appropriate, possibly only temporary switching to the other row of holes that verkokt the other row of holes.
- the method according to claim 4 can in principle also be used in an injection nozzle in which a separating sleeve is provided between the two nozzle needles, which facilitates the sealing between the various rows of holes.
- the injection nozzle 10 shown in Fig. 1 has a nozzle body 12 which is provided with two groups of spray holes 14, 16.
- the spray holes of each group are arranged along a circle with the two circles formed concentric and the circle of the first injection holes 14 surrounds the circle formed by the second injection holes 16.
- a first nozzle needle 18 and a second nozzle needle 20 are arranged inside the nozzle body.
- the first nozzle needle 18 has an annular cross-section, that is, it is hollow, and the second nozzle needle 20 is arranged in the interior of the first nozzle needle 18.
- the first nozzle needle 18 cooperates with the spray holes 14 of the first group, and the second nozzle needle 20 cooperates with the spray holes 16 of the second group.
- Each nozzle needle rests against the nozzle body 12 in such a way that, viewed in the radial direction, it is sealed on the inside and the outside of the corresponding injection hole circle
- the first nozzle needle 18 is provided with a collar 22 which bears against the nozzle body 12, so that a pressure chamber 24 is formed. This is provided with a fuel port 26 so that the pressure chamber 24 can be pressurized.
- a stop chamber 27 is formed, in which a compression spring 28 is arranged. This is supported on the nozzle body 12 and acts on the first nozzle needle 18 against the nozzle body 12, so that the injection holes 14 are closed.
- the stop chamber 27 is provided with a hydraulic connection 30, by means of which the pressure prevailing in the stop chamber 27 pressure can be varied.
- the second nozzle needle 20 is provided with a collar 32 so that a pressure chamber 34 is formed, which is provided with a fuel port 36, and a stop chamber 37, in which a compression spring 38 is arranged and which is provided with a hydraulic connection 40 ,
- the injection nozzle 10 is connected to a fuel injection system, which has a high-pressure accumulator 42 for the fuel to be injected. From this lead supply lines 44, 46 to the fuel ports 26, 36, wherein switchable valves 48, 50 are provided, by means of which the connection from the supply lines to the fuel connections can be opened and closed. Either 312-way valves or two 212-way valves each can be used.
- the first nozzle needle 18 When fuel is supplied to the first pressure chamber 24 via the fuel flange 26, the first nozzle needle 18 opens as soon as the opening force generated in the pressure chamber 24 is greater than the closing force generated by the compression spring 28 and optionally the pressure in the stop chamber 27. It can then be injected through the injection holes 14 fuel.
- the hydraulic stop chamber 27 allows a gentle limitation of the opening stroke of the first nozzle needle 18, wherein this limit can be variably controlled by a switchable valve which is assigned to the hydraulic connection 30.
- opening of the second nozzle needle 20 can be brought about by supplying fuel via the fuel connection 36.
- the fuel present in the pressure chamber 34 is then guided through a bore 52 in the interior of the second nozzle needle 20 to the front end thereof, so that the fuel can escape through the injection holes 16.
- an annular gap between the first nozzle needle 18 and the second nozzle needle 20 could be used, in which case a seal against the stop chamber 27 of the first nozzle needle would have to be provided.
- the opening stroke of the second nozzle needle can be variably controlled by the hydraulic stop chamber 37 and the hydraulic port 40.
- the spray cross-section can be freely selected. Any one of the one or the other group of spray holes 14, 16 may be used, or even both spray hole groups at the same time. For example, both the pre- and the main injection at low load by opening the injection holes of a group done while for the Full-load operation both injection-hole groups are used simultaneously for injection. Also can be switched during operation of one injection hole group to another injection hole group to avoid coking the spray holes that are currently not used.
- outwardly opening injectors in which the use of different spray rows causes the nozzle needle must cover large strokes, the present design creates an internal injector, which allows a low choice of the spray cross section with small opening stroke of the corresponding nozzle needle with low construction costs.
