Die Erfindung geht aus von einem Brennstoffeinspritzventil nach der Gattung des Hauptanspruchs.The invention relates to a fuel injection valve according to the preamble of the main claim.
Beispielsweise ist aus der
Aus der
Nachteilig bei den aus den obengenannten Druckschriften bekannten Brennstoffeinspritzventilenist insbesondere, daß durch die scharfkantigen Einmündungen vom Brennstoffkanal zu den Abspritzöffnungen es zu einer sehr plötzlichen und starken Strömungsumlenkung kommt, die zu unerwünschten Strömungseffekten führt. Insbesondere kommt es zu Strömungsinstabilitäten und kavitierenden Wirbeln, die zu Kavitationsschäden führen und das Eindring- und Ausbreitungsverhalten des Brennstoffsprays nachhaltig unvorteilhaft und nicht vorhersehbar verändern.A disadvantage of the fuel injection valves known from the above publications is in particular that comes through the sharp-edged junctions from the fuel channel to the spray orifices it comes to a very sudden and strong flow deflection, which leads to undesirable flow effects.

Das erfindungsgemäße Brennstoffeinspritzventil mit den kennzeichnenden Merkmalen des Hauptanspruchs hat demgegenüber den Vorteil, daß Strömungsinstabilitäten im abspritzseitigen Bereich des Brennstoffeinspritzventils reduziert werden und das Kavitationsverhalten verbessert wird. Durch die verminderte Kavitationsneigung des geführten Brennstoffs ist die Lebensdauer und Zuverlässigkeit des Brennstoffeinspritzventils erhöht. Durch die gleichzeitige Verringerung der Strömungsinstabilitäten werden zudem Schwankungen in der Homogenität, des Durchflusses und des Eindring- und Ausbreitungsverhaltens des Brennstoffsprays vermindert. Das Brennstoffspray wird im Brennraum insgesamt gleichmäßiger verteilt und Schadstoffemissionen werden reduziert. Außerdem werden Druckschwankungen auf die Ventilnadel vermieden und somit das dynamische Verhalten des Brennstoffeinspritzventils verbessert, womit sog. Tütenstrahlen am Austritt der Abspritzöffnungen vermieden werden.The fuel injection valve according to the invention with the characterizing features of the main claim has the advantage that flow instabilities are reduced in the discharge-side region of the fuel injection valve and the Kavitationsverhalten is improved. The reduced cavitation slope of the guided fuel increases the life and reliability of the fuel injector.

Dadurch ist es möglich, die Strömungsinstabilitäten und die Kavitationsneigung des Brennstoffes weiter zu vermindern.Advantageously, the deflection of the deflection is curved rounded and the fuel is deflected curvilinear thereto. This makes it possible to further reduce the flow instabilities and the cavitation tendency of the fuel.
Vorteilhafterweise ist der Ventilsitzkörper zuströmseitig im Bereich der Einmündung zur Einmündung hin kurvenförmig abgerundet. Kavitationsneigung und Strömungsinstabilitäten lassen sich dadurch weiter vermindern. Dies wird durch eine scharfe Abrisskante am abströmseitigen Ende der Umlenkfläche am Ventilschließkörper ebenfalls begünstigt.Advantageously, the valve seat body is rounded on the inflow side in the region of the junction to the mouth towards curved. Cavitation and flow instabilities can be reduced further. This is also promoted by a sharp tear-off edge at the downstream end of the deflection on the valve closing body.

Dadurch ist es möglich, die Strömungsinstabilitäten und die Kavitationsneigung des Brennstoffes weiter zu vermindern.It is also advantageous to align the downstream end of the deflection so that when the sealing seat is open, the imaginary extension of the deflection is directed to the junction. This makes it possible for the To further reduce flow instabilities and the cavitation tendency of the fuel.
Außerdem ist es vorteilhaft, das Umlenkelement am Ventilschließkörper anzuordnen, wenn das Umlenkelement den Ventilschließkörper ringförmig umfaßt. Dadurch ist es möglich, das Brennstoffeinspritzventil besonders einfach aufzubauen.Moreover, it is advantageous to arrange the deflecting element on the valve closing body when the deflecting element comprises the valve closing body in an annular manner. This makes it possible to build the fuel injection valve particularly simple.
Im Weiteren ist es von Vorteil, das Umlenkelement in der Form einer Nase auszuführen. Der Brennstoff kann dadurch besonders kavitationsarm und strömungsstabil umgelenkt werden.Furthermore, it is advantageous to carry out the deflection in the form of a nose.

Liegt bei geöffnetem Dichtsitz, also bei geöffnetem Brennstoffeinspritzventil, das Umlenkelement auf Höhe der gedachten Verlängerung der Längsachse des zuströmseitigen Endes der Abspritzöffnung, so kann der Brennstoff besonders kavitationsarm und strömungsstabil in die Abspritzöffnung umgelenkt werden.If the sealing element lies at the level of the imaginary extension of the longitudinal axis of the inflow-side end of the injection opening when the sealing seat is open, that is to say when the fuel injection valve is open, then the fuel can be deflected into the injection opening with particularly low cavitation and flow stability.
Liegt die Strömungsabrisskante bei geöffnetem Dichtsitz auf Höhe der gedachten Verlängerung der Längsachse des zuströmseitigen Endes der Abspritzöffnung, so werden Strömungsinstabilitäten und Kavitationsneigung des Brennstoffes weiter vermindert.If the stall edge is at the level of the imaginary extension of the longitudinal axis of the inflow-side end of the ejection opening when the seal seat is open, flow instabilities and cavitation tendency of the fuel are further reduced.
