Definitions
- the present invention relates to a valve for controlling fluids, in particular a fuel injection valve, with an integrated device for determining pressures and a method for determining pressures and pressure changes in a combustion chamber of a motor vehicle.
- knock sensors are used, for example, to determine knock.
- These known knock sensors detect knocking of the engine by excitation of a seismic mass. The mechanical impulses are converted into electrical signals, which are evaluated by a control unit.
- Knock sensors are mechanically firmly connected to the cylinder or engine block from the outside. With such knock sensors, however, only knock detection is possible.
- Combustion chamber pressure sensors are also known, which are provided in a separate bore in the cylinder head for the continuous measurement of the gas pressure in the combustion chamber.
- a disadvantage of these known Drucketz is that this each have its own bore in each cylinder Cylinder head of the engine and a separate line for each cylinder must be provided, which is relatively complex and expensive to manufacture.
- the so-called ion current measurement is known, which is based on the measurement of current flow over ions with an attached electrode voltage, which are generated by ignition ignition when the mixture is ignited. If current flows through these ions through the measuring voltage applied to the candle electrodes, the gas mixture was ignited.
- the ion current measurement _. B. on the candle electrodes, there is the possibility of obtaining controlled variables for controlling the motor.
- misfires and engine knock can be detected and the mixture preparation can be optimized.
- the device according to the invention for recording pressures and for recording pressure changes has the advantage that it is integrated directly into a valve for controlling fluids.
- the valve for controlling fluids comprises a valve member which is arranged in a housing and which releases or closes a connection to a downstream space. Furthermore, an actuating element for actuating the valve member and a biasing element for biasing the valve member in a biasing direction are provided.
- the valve member is in contact with a sensor element in order to record pressure information from the downstream room.
- the invention Valve with integrated pressure absorption is used in particular in engines as a fuel injection valve or as an exhaust / exhaust valve. Since the valve has a direct connection to the downstream space, such as a combustion chamber, via the valve element, the pressures or pressure changes occurring there can be transmitted to the sensor element via the valve element. No further drilling in the cylinder head is necessary.
- the sensor element is arranged outside the valve housing.
- the sensor element can either be arranged as a separate component between the valve housing and a cylinder head and can be preloaded by means of a fastening, or an integral part of the
- valve housing The pressure curve in the combustion chamber is transferred to the pressure sensor via the housing. This pressure information can then be passed on to an regulating device via an electrical circuit or also directly as an electrical signal and evaluated.
- the pressure sensor can be used as a so-called "add-on solution", in particular for retrofitting pressure valves.
- add-on solution in particular for retrofitting pressure valves.
- the sensor element In the case of an integral arrangement of the sensor element, it can be fused, for example, to the pressure valve housing.
- electromagnetic actuators it is also possible, particularly in the case of electromagnetic actuators, to use a sensor
- piezoelectric or magnetostrictive actuators in order to optimize the performance of the actuator or the sensitivity of the sensor, it may be necessary to separate the actuator and sensor.
- valves and butterfly valves for metering of fluids with integral measurement of pressure in the downstream chamber
- present invention can be used both with directly actuated valve needles or closure parts and also with hydraulically and / or mechanically translated systems.
- the actuating element of the valve member is preferably designed as a piezo actuator, as an electromagnetic coil or as a magnetostrictive element.
- the actuating element is simultaneously designed as a sensor element. This makes it possible to dispense with the provision of a separate sensor element, since the already existing actuating element for actuating the valve member can simultaneously be used as a sensor element. This is particularly preferably possible if the actuating element is designed as a piezo actuator or as a magnetostrictive element. If the actuating element is designed as a piezo actuator, the valve member is actuated in a known manner by the piezoelectric effect. A predetermined voltage is applied to the piezo actuator in order to cause a length change in the piezo actuator in order to
- the piezo actuator maintains its length change as long as the voltage is maintained unchanged. This makes it possible in the inactive phase of the piezo actuator, in which there is no change in the voltage, to absorb the pressure changes occurring in the downstream space, which changes are transmitted to the piezoceramic element via the valve member.
- the piezo actuator also works as a sensor at the same time. So that serves piezoelectric element simultaneously as an actuator and as a sensor. When used as a fuel injector, pressure changes caused by knocking can be absorbed in a simple manner. It is also possible that the piezoelectric element is calibrated and thus an absolute pressure in the combustion chamber can be determined, the applied voltage serving as the measurement variable. In this way, for example, an optimal ignition timing can be determined via a control device. According to the invention can thus with different training variants of the invention
- Pressures can be determined in different time windows, whereby both dynamic and absolute or relative pressures can be determined.
- the sensor element is designed as a magnetostrictive element.
- magnetostrictive elements the geometric dimensions of a body change under the influence of a magnetic field. The body is stretched depending on the magnetic field strength.
- magnetoelastic or magnetomechanical effect This causes a change in the magnetic induction under the influence of a mechanical stress.
- this can be used for the use of the magnetostrictive element both as an actuator and as a sensor, the pressure changes being transmitted to the magnetostrictive element via the valve element in the inactive phase of the valve element and, because of the occurring elements, corresponding to the piezoelectric element Change in magnetic induction can be determined.
- Terfenol-D for example, can be used as the magnetostrictive material. So can With a magnetostrictive element as an actuator, it can also be used as a sensor, with which pressure changes and, with appropriate calibration, absolute pressures can be recorded.
- the sensor element is preferably arranged on a common axis with the valve member.
- the sensor element designed as a piezo actuator is preferably also biased by the biasing element of the valve member. This allows the number of components to be further reduced.
- the line present between the actuating element and a control device is also preferably used for signal transmission of the signals of the actuating element operating as a sensor.
- the sensor element is provided as a separate component, it is preferably arranged directly adjacent to the actuating element.
- the separate sensor element can be arranged, for example, between the valve member and the actuating element, or it is arranged on the end of the actuating element opposite the valve member.
- Fuel injector also uses the fuel injector as a pressure transducer. As a result, the number of components on the engine can be reduced and, in particular, the manufacturing costs can be significantly reduced.
- the actuating element of the valve member is simultaneously used as a sensor element.
- the valve thus has the function of injecting fuel as well as the detection of pressures and pressure changes in the combustion chamber, with which knocking and misfires in particular can be recognized.
- the ignition timing can also be optimized and the mixture preparation optimized, which leads to fuel savings and a reduction in pollutants.
- the method according to the invention can also be used when the sensor element is arranged outside the valve housing (as a separate component or as an integral part of the housing). The pressure information is transmitted to the sensor element via the housing.
- the present invention is particularly preferably used in the case of an outward opening valve, since the valve member projects into the space from which pressures or pressure changes are to be transmitted to a sensor.
- the present invention thus easily solves the problem of taking up pressure in a room, a combination of a valve and a pressure sensor being realized.
- the pressure is absorbed by the movable valve member, which can transmit the pressure to the sensor element in the inactive phase of the valve (fully open valve or completely closed valve). As a result, the dynamic pressure of the flow is measured in particular. If the sensor element is arranged outside the valve housing, a differential pressure between the combustion chamber and the surroundings is preferably measured.
- a piezoelectric actuator or a magnetostrictive actuator of a fuel injection valve is particularly preferably used as an actuating element and as a pressure recording sensor for recording pressures or pressure changes in a combustion chamber of an engine.
- the piezoelectric pressure sensor is mounted under pretension between a cylinder head and a valve head extending into the combustion chamber, wherein the pressure sensor can be designed as a separate component or as an integral part of the valve housing.
