Definitions

  • the present invention relates to apparatus for injecting fuel into internal combustion engines, particularly compression ignition engines.
  • high pressure common rail systems have certain advantages over the mechanically actuated injection systems. Among those most important for the commercial vehicle engines are almost unlimited injection timing flexibility and ease of achieving multiple injections. Such an ability of a fuel injection system gains importance with the introduction of various types of diesel exhaust aftertreatment devices and advances in the development of alternative combustion processes like HCCI .
  • the reliance of mechanically actuated systems on a cam driving the pumping plunger can significantly restrict their ability to fulfil the requirements to injection timing and fuelling of multiple injections.
  • the other advantage of a high pressure common rail system over a mechanical unit injection system can be lower parasitic drive power losses when operating at very low engine' loads and idle.
  • high pressure common rail systems can ' also have better accuracy of fuel delivery than a mechanically actuated unit injection system with a large plunger diameter.
  • mechanically actuated unit injection systems can be a source of excessive mechanical noise generated by both the FIE itself and the drivetrain transmitting torque to actuate the system. Such excessive noise is especially conspicuous at engine idle. The operation of the high pressure common rail systems does not significantly contribute to the total engine noise at any operating point.
  • the subject of the present invention is a new mechanical unit injection system with common rail functionality.
  • the purpose of the invention is to allow the mechanical injection actuation and the common rail principles to be used selectively at such conditions that permit utilization of their respective advantages, and to be selectively de-activated at other conditions where their respective drawbacks could adversely affect the performance of the engine.
  • US Patent 6,247,450 Bl by Jiang discloses a system consisting of a mechanically actuated unit injector with a control valve and a common rail.
  • the common rail pressure is regulated at relatively low levels and the fuel under this pressure can be fed into the unit injector through a metering orifice which is opened at a certain retracted position of the plunger of the unit injector, and closed at other plunger positions.
  • Variation of common rail pressure and the duration of opening of the metering orifice determine the amount of fuel filling the plunger chamber.
  • the metering orifice is closed and fuel is pressurized in the plunger chamber, which is appropriately sized to allow for necessary injection pressure to be reached.
  • the plunger chamber is connected to the inlet of a conventional spring-closed nozzle via a control valve.
  • the control valve can be opened to transmit the pressurized fuel to the nozzle and commence injection.
  • the valve closes and the nozzle is closed by the return spring.
  • Such a system relies on the plunger being stationary at the maximum lift and keeping the pressure created during the pumping stroke to provide flexibility in injection timing. Fuel injection cannot possibly take place during most of the retraction and pumping strokes of the plunger due to the metering orifice being closed. Clearly, the system is not designed to inject at any other time but when the plunger is close to the maximum lift, because even if the control valve were opened during the fuel metering phase and common rail pressure were set above the spring opening pressure of the nozzle, the pressure drop across the metering orifice that is necessary to achieve the fuel metering function of the system, would have prevented injection.
  • the other prior art FIE which can be considered relevant to the present invention is that referred to as pressure/time metering unit injection system introduced into the market by Cummins Inc. Examples of such system can be found in US Pat. 3,544,008, 4,092,964 and 5,445,323.
  • a system of this type contains a pressurized fuel common rail feeding unit injectors. However, the function of the common rail is not to directly inject fuel into the engine, but to facilitate fuel metering into the plunger chamber which will be displaced through the nozzle during the pumping stroke of the plunger. Such systems thus have a limited injection timing range and need to utilize the mechanical actuation every time an injection is due.
  • a primary object of the invention is to provide a fuel injection system allowing the mechanical injection actuation and the common rail principles to be used selectively at such conditions that permit utilization of their respective advantages, and to be selectively de-activated at other conditions to avoid their respective disadvantages.
  • a more specific object of the invention is to provide a fuel injection system with an expanded range of possible injection timings compared to the known mechanically actuated injection systems, so that injection could occur at any point in engine's revolution; with an expanded range of possible injection pressures compared to what is feasible for the known high pressure common rail systems; and with an enhanced injection rate shaping capability.
  • Such a system will allow an exclusive use of the common rail operating principle at idle and low loads to reduce the engine noise and an exclusive use of the mechanical actuation principle at such conditions where high injection pressure is necessary, thereby permitting the design of the common rail part of the system to be relatively simple and durable due to relatively low maximum rail pressure.
  • Such a system will, using both operating principles by choosing an appropriate timing of energization of a control valve, be able to achieve a so-called ⁇ boot"-shaped injection in addition to other types of rate shaping which are known to be possible for mechanically actuated unit injectors and common rail systems, such as a square or triangular injection rate traces, pilot injections, high-pressure post injections and late post injections.
  • Another specific object of the present invention is to provide a fuel injection system that, in addition to the features described above, will have an intrinsic protection against system overpressure.
  • a fuel injector 1 incorporating a conventional normally closed nozzle 2 and an electrically operated nozzle control valve (NCV) 3; a mechanically actuated means 4 for pressurizing fuel comprising a cam-driven plunger 5 with ⁇ a cam 6 and a plunger chamber 7, a return spring 8 and an electrically operated valve 9; a common rail 10 typically serving a set of said fuel injectors and mechanically actuated means in an engine (not shown) , a means 11 for pressurizing the common rail and regulating pressure in it at a required level; a return line 12 with a relatively low pressure and a fuel tank 13.
  • NCV electrically operated nozzle control valve
  • Fuel injector 1 is designed to operate as an high pressure common rail injector of the type well known from the prior art. As is typical to such known injectors, injector 1 contains a spring 14 biasing a needle 15 to close the nozzle 2; a control piston 16 with a control chamber 17 arranged such that higher pressure in the control chamber tends to urge the control piston to push onto the needle 15 to close the nozzle; an input throttle 18 and an outlet port 19.
  • the input throttle 18 connects the control chamber 17 with the plunger chamber 7 and the outlet port 19 connects the control chamber with the NCV 3.
  • the NCV can, upon receiving a command, open and connect the outlet port 19 to the return line 12.
  • the flow areas of the input throttle, outlet port and the NCV are chosen such that an opening of the NCV causes a pressure drop in the control chamber that is sufficient to allow the pressure acting on a differential area of the needle 15 to open the nozzle 2.
  • the outlet port 19 and the control piston 16 are designed such that the control piston is able to restrict the outlet port at a position corresponding to an open nozzle, thereby limiting the leakage of pressurized fuel through the input throttle 18, output port 19 and open control valve 3 to the return line 12.
  • the plunger chamber 7 is connected to the inlet of the nozzle 2.
  • the plunger chamber can be connected to or disconnected from the common rail 10, depending on the state of the control valve 9.
  • the fuel injection system works as follows: the fuel pressure in the common rail 10 is maintained at a certain constant level that is set in accordance with requirements of a particular operating condition of the engine. When a high injection pressure is not required for the injection, for example, with the engine at idle or relatively low load point, the control valve 9 remains open throughout the entire engine cycle. During the pumping stroke of the plunger 5, the fuel is displaced through the control valve 9 back to the common rail such that there is very little pressure build-up in the plunger chamber 7 and, correspondingly, little wind-up of the engine transmission driving the plunger.
  • the NCV 3 opens, the pressure in the control chamber 17 falls allowing the control piston 16 and the needle 15 to lift up and open the nozzle. Then, fuel is injected under the common rail pressure through the open nozzle, until the NCV is closed again. Following the closure of the NCV, the pressure in the control chamber 17 rises back to the level of the common rail pressure and the control piston 16, assisted by the spring 14, closes the nozzle. This mode of operation will be further referred to as the common rail or CR mode.
  • the difference between the pressures in the common rail 10 and the return line 12 should be bigger than the spring opening pressure of the nozzle 2, said spring opening pressure being defined by the pre-load of the spring 14 and the size of the differential area of the closed needle 15 as is well known in the art.
  • the CR operational mode allows to reduce the mechanical noise of the injection system by eliminating the wind- up and rapid release of the wound-up transmission driving the mechanical actuation means, that is characteristic to the mechanically actuated FIE and, particularly, unit injectors.
  • the availability of the common rail pressure also allows for fuel injection at any point of the engine cycle.
  • Maximum design limit on the working pressure in the common rail will be a compromise between the cost, useful life and other parameters limiting maximum pressure on one hand and, on the other hand, the benefits such as injection timing flexibility, noise reductions and other that improve engine characteristics.
  • a typical maximum working pressure in the common rail can be between 200 and 600 bar.
  • the control valve 9 When a higher injection pressure is required, the control valve 9 is briefly closed during the pumping stroke of the plunger 5. This will cause a pressure increase in the plunger chamber 7, at the input throttle 18 and the inlet of the nozzle 2.
  • the NCV opens and injection takes place as described above. The end of injection depends on the relative timing of closing of the NCV and opening of the control valve 9.
  • This mode of operation resembles the functional sequence of electronically controlled mechanically actuated unit injectors known in the prior art and will be further referred to as the EUI mode of operation.
  • the present invention can achieve very high injection pressures that are characteristic to the known unit injector and unit pump systems.
  • the present invention does not have the drawbacks of the high pressure common rail systems associated with having very high pressure in the common rail and other volumes, because the high pressure is kept to relatively small volumes by the closed control valve 9.
  • the common rail pressure during the EUI operational mode can be reduced down to a very low level that is just enough to ensure reliable filling of the plunger chamber 7 during the retraction stroke of the plunger, typically between 4 and 6 bar.
  • valve 20 is installed between the inlet of the nozzle 2 and the common rail 10, with its input connected to the common rail.
  • Valve 20 opens during the return or retraction stroke of the plunger 5 to reduce the pressure drop between the plunger chamber 7 and the common rail, which in the absence of the valve 20 could lead to too low a pressure at the inlet of the nozzle 2 for the CR mode of injection to work.
  • the valve 20 is therefore employed to allow for an injection during the retraction stroke of the plunger.
  • it permits the use of a control valve 9 with a smaller flow area. That, in turn, can improve the control valve's response times, reduce its dimensions, electrical power consumption etc.
  • the described above principle of controlling the movement of the needle 15 can be inadequate when a higher needle opening and closing velocity is required. That can be overcome by the use of a three-way valve and suitable modification of the hydraulic circuit.
  • the Figures 3 and 4 show another embodiment of the invention in which a three-way needle control valve 3 is installed between the plunger chamber 7 and the control chamber 17.
  • the control chamber's only connection is to the NCV, which can alternatively connect the control chamber 17 * to the source of pressure (as shown in the figure) or to the return line 12 with low pressure. Opening of the NCV closes the connection of the control chamber to the source of pressure and opens the return line connection, so that the fuel can be evacuated quickly allowing for a faster opening of the needle. Closing of the NCV disconnects the control chamber 17 from the return line and reconnects it to the pressure source, which can also close the nozzle faster.
  • a non- return valve 20 connected by its inlet to the common rail and outlet to the nozzle 2 may be used as shown in Fig.4 to expand the range of possible injection timings of the system and reduce the maximum necessary flow area of the control valve 9.
  • Still another embodiment shown in Fig. 5 incorporates a three position/three-way control valve 9 between the plunger chamber 7 and common rail 10.
  • the control valve 9 can alternatively connect the plunger chamber 7 to the common rail or to the return line 12, or isolate the chamber from both of them.
  • the rest of the design is identical to that shown in Fig.3.
  • the advantage of configuring the present invention according to the embodiment of Fig. 5 is that a so-called ⁇ spill end" of injection can be used where necessary.
  • the CR mode of operation is achieved by opening the NCV and thereby releasing the pressure from the control chamber 17, which in turn allows the nozzle 2 to open.
  • fuel is supplied to the nozzle from the common rail through the open control valve 9 as shown in Fig.5. This position of the valve 9 will be referred to as a first position.
  • Closing the NCV rises the pressure in the control chamber 17 and eventually closes the nozzle. Any fuel displaced by the plunger 5 during the pumping stroke passes back to the common rail through the valve 9, which prevents significant extra pressure from being generated in the system and therefore effectively eliminates wind-up and release of the plunger driving mechanism.
  • the control valve 9 is switched from the first to a second position during the pumping stroke of the plunger 5.
  • valve 9 isolates the plunger chamber 7 from both common rail and return line. Pressure in the system then rises and, upon reaching a desired pressure level, the NCV is open allowing the needle 15 to open the nozzle as described above. Fuel injection occurs at a high pressure generated by the plunger. To end an injection, several options are available. Typically, the NCV will close re-pressurizing the control chamber 17. If a pressure-backed end of injection is desired, the control valve 9 can be either left closed in the second position for a period of time corresponding to the closing duration of the nozzle, or switched back to the first position.
  • the nozzle will then be closed at a high pressure in the control chamber 17, which will be assisting the return spring 14 in closing the nozzle quicker. If a spill end of injection is desired, the control valve 9 will be switched to a third position connecting the plunger chamber 7 to the return line 12 and isolating it from the common rail. By this means the nozzle will be closed with the return spring 14 while fuel pressure in the nozzle is low.
  • the NCV can be connected directly to the common rail as shown in Fig. 6.
  • the NCV is switched to the position where it closes the connection between the control chamber 17 and the return line 12 and connects the control chamber with the common rail.
  • the control valve 9 is switched to the third position to release the pressure from the plunger chamber and the nozzle, and the needle 15 closes the nozzle under the combined action of the return spring 14 and pressure in the control chamber 17.
  • a relatively weak return spring 14 of the nozzle can be used, which can allow for lower minimum common rail pressure setting that can be used for the CR mode of operation.
  • a 2-way nozzle control valve may be used instead of the 3-way valve, as shown in Fig. 7 and 8.
  • the functional sequence of the systems per Fig. 7 and 8 corresponds to that of the systems depicted in Fig. 5 and 6 respectively.
  • the design and function of the 2- way NCV arrangement is described earlier in this section.
  • the embodiments of the present invention shown in Fig. 6 and 8 can be advantageous due to their intrinsically better protection against system overpressure. This is due to the inlet of the control chamber 17 being connected to the common rail (either directly or via NCV) rather than to the plunger chamber 7, as is the case in the other embodiments of the invention (Figs. 1-5, 7) and in many a prior art design. In these latter systems, a failure of the NCV to open leaves no way for the pressure created during the pumping stroke of the plunger to escape, because pressure build-up occurs simultaneously in the nozzle and in the control chamber ⁇ 17 ⁇ and cannot open the nozzle. This can cause serious mechanical damage of the FIE and the engine. Connecting the control chamber 17 to the common rail as in Figs.
  • This pressure limit is determined by the preload of the return spring 14, diameter of the control piston 16 and pressure in the common rail 10, which in turn can be easily limited by a relief valve.
  • FIG.10 incorporates an electrically actuated nozzle control valve 21 which directly controls the position of the needle 15 of the nozzle 2.
  • the needle 15 can be mechanically connected to the moveable armature 22 of the NCV 3.
  • the CR and/or the EUI operational modes, as well as their combinations, are realized in this embodiment in the same way as previously described.
  • the electrically actuated nozzle control valve 21 can be solenoid-actuated or, preferably, piezo-actuated to achieve fast and precise control of the position of the needle 15. All of the embodiments of the present invention described herein are capable of rate shaping of the injection process in several ways.
  • Variable needle opening pressure is achieved during the EUI operational mode by suitably delaying the timing of the opening of the NCV 3 relative to closing of the control valve 9.
  • high maximum NOP can be set by using the control piston 16 of a bigger diameter than the diameter of the needle 15. Selecting an higher NOP gives a more square-shaped injection rate trace, lower NOP will give a gradual pressure rise during an injection and the trace will have a triangular shape.
  • the invention allows for a boot-shaped injection with variable pressure level and variable duration of the boot phase.
  • both the CR and EUI operational modes can be used within a single injection cycle, with NCV opening prior to the start of pumping stroke of the plunger.
  • the means 11 for pressurizing the common rail 10 and regulating the fuel pressure can incorporate a fixed displacement pump and a pressure regulator that is essentially a controllable relief valve.
  • the displacement of the pump is chosen such that maximum required pressure in the CR can be achieved at any engine operating condition. When a lower pressure is required compared to what is achievable at the particular condition, the relief valve will return the excess fuel from the outlet of the pump back to the fuel tank.
  • a variable displacement pump can be used such that the delivery of the pump can be adjusted at any operating condition to maintain necessary CR pressure without opening a relief valve, which in such a system will function as a safety relief valve.
  • the use of a variable displacement pump will allow reduced power losses, but such pumps are generally more expensive than fixed displacement pumps.
