Definitions
- the invention relates to a fuel injection valve according to the preamble of the main claim.
- an outwardly opening fuel injection valve which has a conical sealing seat.
- the valve needle has a central bore, which opens into a pressure chamber upstream of the pressure chamber.
- An actuator which is designed as a piezoelectric actuator, is supported on the one hand against a nozzle body and on the other hand against a non-positively connected to the valve needle pressure shoulder.
- a return spring holds the valve needle in a closed position. Upon excitation of the actuator, the valve needle is opened by longitudinal expansion thereof against the closing force of the return spring and sprayed fuel.
- a disadvantage of the DE 195 34 445 A1 known fuel injection valve is in particular that the injected into the combustion chamber of the internal combustion engine fuel jet is conical and symmetrical to a longitudinal axis of the fuel injection valve. An oblique injection as well as an asymmetric deformation of the Cone jet, for example, to compensate for a tight installation position of the fuel injection valve is not possible here.
- JP 04 179855 A discloses an air pressure valve.
- an air jet is introduced from a partial opening of the nozzle with a tip of the conical valve seat disposed within the valve seat.
- the tip is shaped to form a small orifice angle jet while another airflow is introduced from a partial orifice of the needle, the tip of the conical valve seat being substantially flush with the valve end Valve front is when the valve has maximum lift.
- the airflow has a large opening angle.
- the opening angle of the fuel spray injected from an injection nozzle is small, the fuel is injected along an air jet. As a result, a fuel spray having a small injection angle is partially formed. If the opening angle of the injected fuel jet is large, the injected fuel no longer runs along the air jet, but merges with the air jet to form a conical overall jet.
- DE 44 05 921 A1 relates to an injector with a nozzle orifice completely or partially enclosing deflector, which has the task of deflecting an emerging from the nozzle rotationally symmetric beam such that the combustion chamber of the engine is uniformly detected by the fuel.
- the injection nozzle is characterized in that at the level of the nozzle orifice Ablenker is arranged, which deflects the injection jet according to the nozzle installation position and the combustion chamber geometry in order to achieve a desired fuel distribution.
- the deflector may also be a ringwall surrounding the nozzle orifice and giving the beam axis a new direction. The ringwall can be interrupted at certain points in order to achieve a desired fuel distribution in the combustion chamber.
- U.S. 5,577,473 discloses a fuel injector for supplying a fuel / gas mixture into a combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine. This works with charge stratification in the combustion chamber and through a spark plug that ignites the fuel or fuel / air mixture introduced.
- the fuel or the fuel / air mixture is injected under two jets in the combustion chamber.
- the first jet is in the shape of an umbrella or cone and passes the spark plug, while the second jet, branched off from the first jet, brushes the spark plug.
- the branch of the second jet is achieved by a recess of the guide surface of the injection valve body at the discharge end of the fuel injection valve. Thereby, a fuel-rich fuel / air mixture is provided in the vicinity of the spark of the spark plug.
- the problem to be solved is to design a fuel injector which can also be used in narrow installation spaces and which can deform the fuel jet with the simplest means so that the spark plug is not injected directly.
- the fuel injection valve according to the invention with the features of claim 1 has the advantage that by simple measures on the contour of the nozzle body an oblique injection at any angle ⁇ and a targeted deformation of the injected mixture cloud is possible.
- a projection which partially or completely surrounds the sealing seat, which projection can be designed in accordance with the requirements of the shape and direction of the fuel jet.
- the projection has a recess whose longitudinal axis is inclined relative to a longitudinal axis of the fuel injection valve. By a more or less strong inclination of the axes against each other, any injection angle can be realized.
- the projection is annular.
- the projection is either integrally formed with the nozzle body in a simple manner or fixed thereto by means of a suitable technique such as welding or soldering.
- FIG. 1 illustrated first embodiment of a fuel injection valve 1 according to the invention is carried out in the form of a fuel injection valve 1 for fuel injection systems of mixture-compression, spark-ignition internal combustion engines.
- the fuel injection valve 1 is suitable in particular for the direct injection of fuel into a combustion chamber, not shown, of an internal combustion engine.
- the fuel injection valve 1 consists of a housing body 2 and a nozzle body 3, in which a valve needle 4 is arranged.
- the valve needle 4 is available a valve closing body 5 in operative connection, which cooperates with a valve seat surface 6 to a sealing seat.
- the fuel injection valve 1 in the exemplary embodiment is an outwardly opening fuel injection valve 1.
- the fuel injection valve 1 has an actuator 7, which in the exemplary embodiment is designed as a piezoelectric actuator 7.
- the actuator is supported, on the one hand, on the housing body and, on the other hand, on a shoulder 8 operatively connected to the valve needle 4. Downstream of the shoulder 8, a return spring 9 is arranged, which in turn is supported on the nozzle body 3.
- the valve needle 4 has a fuel channel 10, through which the fuel supplied by an inlet-side central fuel supply 11 is led to the sealing seat.
- a swirl chamber 12 is formed, into which the fuel channel 10 opens.
- the shoulder 8 In the idle state of the fuel injection valve 1, the shoulder 8 is acted upon by the force of the return spring 9 against the stroke direction so that the valve closing body 5 is held on the valve seat surface 6 in sealing engagement. Upon excitation of the piezoelectric actuator 7, this expands in the axial direction against the spring force of the return spring 9, so that the shoulder 8 is moved in the stroke direction with the valve needle 4, which is non-positively connected to the shoulder 8.
- the valve closing body 5 lifts off from the valve seat surface 6, and the guided over the fuel passage 10 fuel is hosed.
- the valve closing body 5 is seated on the valve seat surface 6 and the fuel injection valve 1 is closed.
- the fuel injection valve 1 at a downstream end 13 on a valve closing body 5 at least partially comprehensive projection 14.
- the projection 14 is designed so that it completely encloses the valve closing body 5 and thereby forms an annular structure.
- the projection 14 has a recess whose longitudinal axis is inclined relative to a longitudinal axis of the fuel injection valve 1.
- the recess is formed obliquely conical in the embodiment and expands towards the combustion chamber.
- the projection 14 may be integrally formed with the downstream end 13 and with the nozzle body 3 of the fuel injection valve 1, as shown in the first embodiment, or subsequently attached by means of a suitable technique such as soldering or welding.
- Fig. 2 shows a sectional view of an embodiment of a not inventively designed fuel injector 1.
- the same components are provided with matching reference numerals.
- the fuel injection valve 1 can be designed identically to the first exemplary embodiment in the second exemplary embodiment, so that a repetitive description of already explained components is unnecessary.
- the projection 14, which forms an annular structure in the first embodiment, is formed only in a position of the downstream end 13 of the fuel injection valve 1 in the form of a pin 17.
- Fig. 3 is the downstream end 13 of the fuel injection valve 1 according to the in Fig. 2 Shown with III section shown in a rotated by 90 ° view, whereby the extension of the pin 17 is illustrated.
- the pin 17 may be formed integrally with the nozzle body 3 or subsequently fixed, for example by welding or soldering to this.
- Fig. 4 shows a mixture cloud 15, which by means of in Fig. 2 illustrated embodiment of the fuel injection valve 1 according to the invention is injected into the combustion chamber of the internal combustion engine. Due to the shielding effect of the pin 17, the mixture cloud 15 in this area a dent 16, which may for example be arranged so that a arranged in the vicinity of the fuel injection valve 1 spark plug is not injected directly, whereby the coking of the spark plug is reduced.

Die zu lösende Aufgabe ist es, ein Brennstoffeinspritzventil zu konstruieren, das auch in eng begrenzten Einbauräumen eingesetzt werden kann und das den Brennstoffstrahl mit einfachsten Mitteln so verformen kann, dass die Zündkerze nicht direkt angespritzt wird.The problem to be solved is to design a fuel injector which can also be used in narrow installation spaces and which can deform the fuel jet with the simplest means so that the spark plug is not injected directly.
Das erfindungsgemäße Brennstoffeinspritzventil mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 hat demgegenüber den Vorteil, daß durch einfache Maßnahmen an der Kontur des Düsenkörpers eine schräge Einspritzung unter einem beliebigen Winkel γ sowie eine gezielte Verformung der eingespritzten Gemischwolke möglich ist.The fuel injection valve according to the invention with the features of claim 1 has the advantage that by simple measures on the contour of the nozzle body an oblique injection at any angle γ and a targeted deformation of the injected mixture cloud is possible.
Dies ist durch einen den Dichtsitz teilweise oder vollständig umfassenden Vorsprung realisierbar, welcher entsprechend den Anforderungen an die Form und Richtung des Brennstoffstrahls gestaltet werden kann. Der Vorsprung hat eine Ausnehmung, dessen Längsachse gegenüber einer Längsachse des Brennstoffeinspritzventils geneigt ist.

Ein in
Das Brennstoffeinspritzventil 1 besteht aus einem Gehäusekörper 2 und einem Düsenkörper 3, in welchem eine Ventilnadel 4 angeordnet ist. Die Ventilnadel 4 steht mit einem Ventilschließkörper 5 in Wirkverbindung, der mit einer Ventilsitzfläche 6 zu einem Dichtsitz zusammenwirkt. Bei dem Brennstoffeinspritzventil 1 handelt es sich im Ausführungsbeispiel um ein nach außen öffnendes Brennstoffeinspritzventil 1. Das Brennstoffeinspritzventil 1 weist einen Aktor 7 auf, der im Ausführungsbeispiel als piezoelektrischer Aktor 7 ausgeführt ist. Der Aktor stützt sich einerseits an dem Gehäusekörper und andererseits an einer mit der Ventilnadel 4 in Wirkverbindung stehenden Schulter 8 ab. Abströmseitig der Schulter 8 ist eine Rückstellfeder 9 angeordnet, welche sich ihrerseits an dem Düsenkörper 3 abstützt.The fuel injection valve 1 consists of a
Die Ventilnadel 4 weist einen Brennstoffkanal 10 auf, durch welchen der durch eine zulaufseitige zentrale Brennstoffzufuhr 11 zugeleitete Brennstoff zum Dichtsitz geführt wird. Zuströmseitig des Dichtsitzes ist eine Drallkammer 12 ausgebildet, in welche der Brennstoffkanal 10 ausmündet.The
Im Ruhezustand des Brennstoffeinspritzventils 1 wird die Schulter 8 durch die Kraft der Rückstellfeder 9 entgegen der Hubrichtung so beaufschlagt, daß der Ventilschließkörper 5 an der Ventilsitzfläche 6 in dichtender Anlage gehalten wird. Bei Erregung des piezoelektrischen Aktors 7 dehnt sich dieser in axialer Richtung entgegen der Federkraft der Rückstellfeder 9 aus, so daß die Schulter 8 mit der Ventilnadel 4, welche mit der Schulter 8 kraftschlüssig verbunden ist, in Hubrichtung bewegt wird. Der Ventilschließkörper 5 hebt von der Ventilsitzfläche 6 ab, und der über den Brennstoffkanal 10 geführte Brennstoff wird abgespritzt.In the idle state of the fuel injection valve 1, the
Wird der Erregerstrom abgeschaltet, reduziert sich die axiale Ausdehnung des piezoelektrischen Aktors 7, wodurch die Ventilnadel 4 durch den Druck der Rückstellfeder 9 entgegen der Hubrichtung bewegt wird. Der Ventilschließkörper 5 setzt auf der Ventilsitzfläche 6 auf und das Brennstoffeinspritzventil 1 wird geschlossen. Erfindungsgemäß weist das Brennstoffeinspritzventil 1 an einem abströmseitigen Ende 13 einen den Ventilschließkörper 5 zumindest teilweise umfassenden Vorsprung 14 auf. Im vorliegenden ersten Ausführungsbeispiel ist der Vorsprung 14 so ausgeführt, daß er den Ventilschließkörper 5 zur Gänze umschließt und dabei eine ringförmige Struktur bildet. Der Vorsprung 14 hat eine Ausnehmung, dessen Längsachse gegenüber einer Längsachse des Brennstoffeinspritzventils 1 geneigt ist. Durch diese Ausführung des Vorsprungs 14 kann ein die Abspritzrichtung des Brennstoffeinspritzventils 1 definierender Winkel γ beliebig eingestellt werden. Schrägeinspritzende Brennstoffeinspritzventile 1 sind insbesondere dort wichtig, wo der Einbauraum begrenzt oder eine Zündkerze, welche nicht direkt angespritzt werden darf, in unmittelbarer Nähe des Brennstoffeinspritzventils 1 angeordnet ist.If the excitation current is switched off, the axial extent of the
Die Ausnehmung ist im Ausführungsbeispiel schräg kegelförmig ausgebildet und erweitert sich zum Brennraum hin.The recess is formed obliquely conical in the embodiment and expands towards the combustion chamber.
Der Vorsprung 14 kann dabei mit dem abströmseitigen Ende 13 bzw. mit dem Düsenkörper 3 des Brennstoffeinspritzventils 1, wie im ersten Ausführungsbeispiel dargestellt, einstückig ausgebildet oder nachträglich mittels einer geeigneten Technik wie Löten oder Schweißen angebracht sein.The
Im vorliegenden Ausführungsbeispiel ist der Vorsprung 14, welcher im ersten Ausführungsbeispiel eine ringförmige Struktur bildet, nur mehr an einer Stelle des abströmseitigen Endes 13 des Brennstoffeinspritzventils 1 in Form eines Zapfens 17 ausgebildet. Durch eine geeignete Wahl der axialen Länge sowie des durch den Zapfen 17 abgedeckten Winkelbereiches kann eine Verformung der in den Brennraum der Brennkraftmaschine eingespritzten Gemischwolke erzielt werden.In the present embodiment, the

Die Gemischwolke 15 kann auch durch die Anordnung mehrerer Zapfen 17 an beliebigen Stellen des abspritzseitigen Endes 13 des Brennstoffeinspritzventils 1 weiter verformt werden, wenn beispielsweise mehrere Zündkerzen vorhanden sind oder die Anordnung der Ein- und Auslaßventile dies als notwendig erscheinen läßt.The
Die Erfindung ist nicht auf die dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiele beschränkt und z.
