Abstract

An injector, especially a common rail injector controlled by a servo valve, for injecting fuel into the combustion chambers of internal combustion engines, comprising a nozzle body (10) with a nozzle outlet (12) formed on the combustion-sided (free) end thereof, in addition to a nozzle needle (14) which is arranged in a longitudinal recess (11) of the valve body (10) such that it can be displaced or actuated axially. The injector also comprises a sealing part (17) which is adjacent to (above) the valve body and which seals the rear end (i.e. end facing away from the nozzle outlet (12)) of the longitudinal recess (11) and which forms an opening stop (29) for the nozzle needle (14), cooperating with the rear (i.e. end facing away from the nozzle outlet (12)) surface (37) of the valve needle (14) and defines the opening lift (hDN) of the nozzle needle (14). The injector further comprises a control chamber (28) which is formed between the rear nozzle surface (37) and the sealing part (17) and which is hydraulically connected to a pressure connection (21) used to supply fuel. One particular aspect of the injector is that the rear surface (37) of the nozzle needle (14) and/or the stop surface (20) of the sealing part (17) cooperating therewith is configured in such a way that a dotted or substantially dotted contact surface is formed in an open position of said valve needle (14) between the rear nozzle needle surface (37) and the stop surface (29) of the sealing part (17).

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf einen Injektor zur Einspritzung von Kraftstoff in Brennräume von Brennkraftmaschinen, insbesondere auf einen sentoventilgesteuerten Common-Rail-Injektor, mit einem Düsenkörper, an dessen brennraumseitigen (freien) Ende ein Düsenaustritt ausgebildet ist, mit einer Düsennadel, die in einer Langsausnehmung des Düsenkörpers axial beweglich bzw. betätigbar angeordnet ist, mit einem das rückwärtige (vom Düsenaustritt abgewandte) Ende der Langsausnehmung abschließenden, (oberhalb) an den Düsenkörper angrenzenden Abschlussteil, welches einen Öffnungsanschlag für die Düsennadel bildet, hierbei mit der rückseitigen (vom Düsenaustritt abgewandten) Stirnfläche der Düsennadel zusammenwirkt und damit den Öffnungshub der Düsennadel begrenzt, und mit einem zwischen der rückwärtigen Düsennadel- Stirnfläche und dem Abschlussteil ausgebildeten Steuerraum, der mit einem der Kraftstoffzuführung dienenden Druckanschluss in hydraulischer Verbindung steht.The invention relates to an injector for injecting fuel into combustion chambers of internal combustion engines, in particular to a sentoventil-controlled common rail injector, with a nozzle body, on the combustion chamber-side (free) end of which a nozzle outlet is formed, with a nozzle needle which is in a longitudinal recess of the nozzle body is arranged to be axially movable or actuatable, with a closing part which closes the rear end (facing away from the nozzle outlet) and (above) adjoins the nozzle body and forms an opening stop for the nozzle needle, here with the rear end (facing away from the nozzle outlet) End face of the nozzle needle cooperates and thus limits the opening stroke of the nozzle needle, and with a control chamber formed between the rear nozzle needle end face and the end part, which is in hydraulic connection with a pressure connection serving the fuel supply TEHT.
Ein CR-lnjektor der vorbezeichneten Art ist durch die DE 199 36 668 A1 bekannt geworden. Bei dem bekannten Injektor ist die mit der ebenflächigen Anschlagfläche des Abschlussteils zusammenwirkende rückseitige Stirnfläche der Düsennadel ebenfalls plan ausgebildet. Der gewünschte Nadelhub wird durch entsprechende Schleifbearbeitung der rückseitigen Düsennadel-Stirnfläche hergestellt. Unter dem Aspekt, dass die Nadelhubtoleranz - wegen Mengenstreuungen der einzelnen Injektoren - möglichst klein sein muss, ergeben sich aus der bekannten Konzeption zweier ebenflächiger Anschlagflächen mehrere Nachteile. Zum einen wirkt es sich nachteilig aus, dass - infolge von Fertigungstoleranzen bei der Herstellung der Düsennadel einerseits und der Führungsbohrung für dieA CR injector of the aforementioned type has become known from DE 199 36 668 A1. In the known injector, the rear end face of the nozzle needle, which cooperates with the flat stop face of the end part, is also flat. The required needle stroke is produced by appropriate grinding of the back face of the nozzle needle. In view of the fact that the needle stroke tolerance has to be as small as possible - because of the quantity scatter of the individual injectors - there are several disadvantages from the known concept of two flat stop surfaces. On the one hand, it has the disadvantage that - due to manufacturing tolerances in the manufacture of the nozzle needle on the one hand and the guide bore for the
Düsennadel im Düsenkörper andererseits - bei der Axialbewegung der Düsennadel geringfügige Seitwärts- bzw. Kippbewegungen der Düsennadel auftreten (sog. „Stirnschlag"). Hierdurch kann sich beim Verdrehen der Düsennadel der Nadelhub verändern und damit die Nadelhubtoleranz vergrößern. Entsprechend nachteilige Auswirkungen hat auch eine toleranzbedingte Schrägsteilung des Abschlussteils zur Führungsbohrung der Düsennadel.Nozzle needle in the nozzle body, on the other hand - slight lateral or tilting movements of the nozzle needle occur during the axial movement of the nozzle needle (so-called "forehead"). As a result, the needle stroke can change when the nozzle needle is rotated, thereby increasing the needle stroke tolerance Oblique division of the end part to the guide hole of the nozzle needle.
Wegen der erforderlichen Flächenauflage des Messtasters beim Einschleifen des Nadelhubs an der Düsennadel ergibt sich eine nachteilige große Einstelltoleranz.Because of the required surface support of the probe when grinding in the needle stroke on the nozzle needle, there is a disadvantageous large setting tolerance.
In Öffnungsstellung der Düsenadel liegt deren rückseitige Stirnfläche plan auf der ebenfalls planen Anschlagfläche des Abschlussteils auf, was eine nachteilige Minimierung des oberhalb der Düsennadel ausgebildeten Steuerraums bedeutet. Hierdurch verringert sich nämlich der stirnseitige Steuerdruck auf die Düsennadel. Die Düsennadel „klebt" und schließt dadurch langsamer mit der nachteiligen Folge, dass die an der Düse austretende Einspritzmenge zu groß ist.In the open position of the nozzle needle, its rear end face lies flat on the likewise flat stop surface of the end part, which means a disadvantageous minimization of the control space formed above the nozzle needle. This reduces the control pressure on the end of the nozzle needle. The nozzle needle "sticks" and thereby closes more slowly, with the disadvantageous consequence that the injection quantity emerging at the nozzle is too large.
Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, die im Vorstehenden geschilderten Nachteile zu vermeiden, d.h. einen Injektor zu schaffen, der sich durch eine nur minimale Düsennadel-Hubtoleranz und einen konstanten Düsennadelhub, auch bei Verdrehung der Düsennadel sowie durch eine nur vergleichsweise geringe Einstelltoleranz beim Einschleifen des Düsennadelhubs auszeichnet. Vorteile der ErfindungThe object of the invention is to avoid the disadvantages described above, ie to create an injector that is characterized by a minimal nozzle needle stroke tolerance and a constant nozzle needle stroke, even when the nozzle needle is twisted, and by a comparatively small adjustment tolerance when grinding in the nozzle needle stroke distinguished. Advantages of the invention
Gemäß der Erfindung wird die Aufgabe bei einem Injektor der eingangs bezeichneten Gattung dadurch gelöst, dass die rückseitige Stirnfläche der Düsennadel und/oder die mit dieser zusammenwirkende Anschlagfläche des Abschlussteils so ausgebildet ist, dass sich in Öffnungsstellung der Düsennadel eine punktformige oder im Wesentlichen punktformige Berührfläche zwischen der rückseitigen Düsennadel-Stirnfläche und der Anschlagfläche des Abschlusssteils ergibt.According to the invention, the object is achieved in an injector of the type described in the introduction in that the rear end face of the nozzle needle and / or the stop face of the end part interacting therewith is designed such that in the open position of the nozzle needle there is a punctiform or essentially punctiform contact surface between the rear nozzle needle face and the stop surface of the end piece.
Nach einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung, bei der die mit der rückseitigen Düsennadel-Stirnfläche zusammenwirkende Anschlagfläche des Abschlussteils ebenflächig ausgebildet ist, soll die Düsennadel eine ballige, vorzugsweise kugelförmige, rückseitige Stirnfläche aufweisen.According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, in which the abutment surface of the end part which interacts with the rear nozzle needle end face is flat, the nozzle needle should have a spherical, preferably spherical, rear end face.
Durch die erfindungsgemäßen Maßnahmen entsteht am oberen Anschlag der Düsennadel, d.h. in Öffnungsstellung derselben, eine (nahezu) punktformige Berührfläche zwischen dem Abschlussteil und der rückseitigen (oberen) Stirnfläche der Düsennadel. Dadurch werden - ohne großen technischen Aufwand - die oben geschilderten Unzulänglichkeiten bekannter Injektoren der in Rede stehenden Art beseitigt. So gelingt es, die Hubtoleranz der Düsennadel von +_ 0,01 mm auf +_ 0,003 mm zu reduzieren. Insbesondere wird das unerwünschte „Kleben" der Düsennadel am Anschlag in ihrer Öffnungsstellung verhindert, was eine größere Sparsamkeit bei den vom Injektor geförderten Einspritzmengen bedeutet.The measures according to the invention result at the upper stop of the nozzle needle, i.e. in the open position thereof, an (almost) punctiform contact surface between the end part and the rear (upper) end face of the nozzle needle. As a result, the shortcomings described above of known injectors of the type in question are eliminated without great technical effort. This enables the stroke tolerance of the nozzle needle to be reduced from + _ 0.01 mm to + _ 0.003 mm. In particular, the undesired "sticking" of the nozzle needle to the stop in its open position is prevented, which means greater economy in the injection quantities delivered by the injector.
Um plastische Verformungen an den zusammenwirkenden Flächen der Düsennadel einerseits und des Abschlussteils andererseits zu vermeiden, sollte der Radius der rückseitigen Düsennadel-Stirnfläche dort, wo diese mit der Anschlagfläche des Abschlussteils in Berührung kommt, so bemessen sein, dass - unter Berücksichtigung der auf die Düsennadel wirkenden Öffnungskraft - die zulässige Hertz' sehe Pressung nicht überschritten wird. ZeichnungIn order to avoid plastic deformations on the interacting surfaces of the nozzle needle on the one hand and the end part on the other hand, the radius of the rear end of the nozzle needle should be dimensioned where it comes into contact with the stop surface of the end part so that - taking into account that on the nozzle needle effective opening force - the permissible Hertz 'see pressure is not exceeded. drawing

The high-pressure fuel passes through the first bore 24 - via an annular space 26 - into the longitudinal recess 11 of the nozzle body 10 and thus - with the valve 13, 15 open - to the nozzle outlet 12.
Eine Besonderheit bei der zweiten Bohrung 25 besteht darin, dass diese sich stufenförmig zu einer Drosselbohrung 27 (sog. Zulaufdrossel) verengt. Über diese Zulaufdrossel 27 gelangt Kraftstoff in einen Steuerraum 28, der sich zwischen dem oberen Ende der Düsennadel 14 und der mit 29 bezifferten unteren Stirnfläche des Abschlussteils 17 erstreckt. Der Steuerraum 28 erreicht sein maximales Volumen bei der aus Fig. 1 und Fig. 2 ersichtlichen Schließstellung der Düsennadel 14, wobei diese mit ihrem konusförmigen Ende 15 dichtend mit dem Ventilsitz 13 in Anlage steht. In dieser Schließstellung wird die Düsennadel 14 zum einen durch den im Steuerraum 28 herrschenden Flüssigkeitsdruck und zum anderen durch eine Druckfeder 30 gehalten. Diese stützt sich hierbei mit ihrem oberen Ende über ein das obere Ende der Düsennadel 14 dichtend umschließendes Hülsenteil 31 an der unteren Stirnfläche 29 des Abschlussteils 17 ab. Ihre - in Pfeilrichtung 32 gerichtete - Schließkraft übt die Druckfeder 30 über ein weiteres Hülsenteil 33, das sich auf einem Absatz 34 der Düsennadel 14 abstützt, auf die Düsennadel 14 aus.A special feature of the second bore 25 is that it narrows in steps to a throttle bore 27 (so-called inlet throttle). Via this inlet throttle 27, fuel reaches a control chamber 28 which extends between the upper end of the nozzle needle 14 and the lower end face of the end part 17, numbered 29. The control chamber 28 reaches its maximum volume when the nozzle needle 14 is in the closed position shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the conical end 15 of which is sealingly in contact with the valve seat 13. In this closed position, the nozzle needle 14 is held on the one hand by the liquid pressure prevailing in the control chamber 28 and on the other hand by a compression spring 30. This is supported with its upper end on a sleeve part 31 sealingly enclosing the upper end of the nozzle needle 14 on the lower end face 29 of the end part 17. Yours - in the direction of the arrow 32 directional - closing force exerts the compression spring 30 on the nozzle needle 14 via a further sleeve part 33, which is supported on a shoulder 34 of the nozzle needle 14.
In das Abschlussteil 17 ist eine weitere Bohrung 35 eingearbeitet, die einerseits über Bohrung 24 und Ringraum 26 - mit dem Hochdruckkanal 21 und andererseits - über eine Drosselbohrung 36 (sog. Ablaufdrossel) - mit dem Servoventil 19 in hydraulischer Wirkverbindung steht.In the end part 17, a further bore 35 is machined, which is on the one hand via bore 24 and annular space 26 - with the high-pressure duct 21 and on the other hand - via a throttle bore 36 (so-called discharge throttle) - with the servo valve 19 in hydraulic operative connection.
Eine wesentliche Besonderheit des dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiels besteht nun darin, dass die - mit 37 bezifferte - rückseitige (obere) Stirnfläche der Düsennadel 14 eine kugelförmige Krümmung aufweist. Der Kugelradius ist in Fig. 1 und 2 mit rkugeι bezeichnet. Durch den Scheitelpunkt P (s. Fig. 2) der Kugelfläche 37 wird der obere Anschlag der Düsennadel 14, welcher mit der Fläche 29 des Abschlussteils 17 als Gegenanschlag zusammenwirkt, bestimmt. Ausgehend von der Schließstellung der Düsennadel 14 (s. Fig. 1 und 2) ergibt sich daraus der - in Fig. 2 mit hDN bezeichnete - Düsennadelhub. In ihrer (oberen) Öffnungsstellung kommt die Düsennadel 14 somit am Punkt P mit der Fläche 29 des Abschlussteils 17 zur Anlage. Durch die - infolge der kugelförmig/balligen Gestaltung der Stirnfläche 37 der Düsennadel 14 gelungene -Vermeidung einer (groß-)flächigen Anlage der Düsennadel 14 an der Anschlagfläche 29 des Abschlussteils 17 wird ein - andernfalls mögliches - „Kleben" der Düsennadel 14 in ihrer (oberen) Öffnungsstellung verhindert. Außerdem sorgt die kugelförmig/ballige Düsennadel- Stirnfläche 37 dafür, dass auch in Öffnungsstellung der Düsennadel 14 noch ein ausreichend großer Steuerraum 28 verbleibt. Die kugelförmig/ballige Gestaltung der Düsennadel-Stirnfläche 37 mit dem daraus resultierenden nahezu punktförmigen Düsennadelanschlag erbringt darüber hinaus den Vorteil, dass der Düsennadelhub hDN bei einem etwaigen Verdrehen der Düsennadel 14 oder bei durch Fertigungstoleranzen bedingter Schrägstellung derselben stets konstant bleibt. An essential special feature of the exemplary embodiment shown is that the rear (upper) end face of the nozzle needle 14, numbered 37, has a spherical curvature. The spherical radius is shown in Fig. 1 and 2 are denoted by r kuge ι. The apex P (see FIG. 2) of the spherical surface 37 determines the upper stop of the nozzle needle 14, which interacts with the surface 29 of the end part 17 as a counter stop. Starting from the closed position of the nozzle needle 14 (see FIGS. 1 and 2), this results in the nozzle needle stroke — denoted by h DN in FIG. 2. In its (upper) open position, the nozzle needle 14 thus comes to rest at point P with the surface 29 of the end part 17. Because of the spherical / spherical design of the end face 37 of the nozzle needle 14, the avoidance of a (large) surface contact of the nozzle needle 14 on the stop face 29 of the end part 17 results in an - otherwise possible - "sticking" of the nozzle needle 14 in its ( In addition, the spherical / spherical nozzle needle end face 37 ensures that a sufficiently large control space 28 remains in the open position of the nozzle needle 14. The spherical / spherical design of the nozzle needle end face 37 results in the resulting almost punctiform nozzle needle stop moreover the advantage that the nozzle needle stroke h DN always remains constant in the event of any rotation of the nozzle needle 14 or when it is inclined due to manufacturing tolerances.
