Definitions
- the invention relates to a fuel injector according to the preamble of claim 1.
- a fuel injection valve is known in particular for the direct injection of fuel into the combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine.
- the fuel injection valve comprises an armature, which cooperates with a solenoid coil, and a valve needle which is positively connected to the armature and on which a Valve closing body is provided, which forms a sealing seat together with a valve seat surface.
- the valve needle has a first stop for the armature movable on it, the armature being additionally acted upon by a second return spring.
- a stationary second stop for the armature is also provided.
- the second return spring acts on the armature counter to the stroke direction and holds the armature against the second stop in the non-energized state of the solenoid so that the armature is spaced from the first stop formed on the valve needle by a predetermined distance.
- a disadvantage of the fuel injector known from DE 198 16 315 AI is, in particular, that although a pre-stroke principle is implemented which enables an improvement in the valve dynamics when the fuel injector is opened, armature bumps occur when the fuel injector closes when the armature returns to the starting position, which means that further undesired opening strokes of the valve needle are induced.
- the fuel injector according to the invention with the characterizing features of the main claim has the advantage that the armature is mounted swinging on the valve needle by a correspondingly arranged spring and therefore a preliminary stroke can take place during the opening process, but the armature can swing through when closing relative to the valve needle, which means that more Opening strokes of the valve needle can be avoided.
- the spring is designed in a simple manner as a helical spring and is attached to the valve needle.
- the spring is advantageously arranged between a flange which is non-positively connected to the valve needle and a sleeve.
- the sleeve encapsulates the spring and the flange.
- the sleeve can be produced in a simple manner and mounted on the armature in the fuel injection valve. It is also advantageous that a stop ring fixed to the housing is provided which serves as the lower anchor stop.
- Fig. 1 shows a schematic section through an embodiment of a fuel injector designed according to the invention
- FIG. 2 shows an enlarged detail from the exemplary embodiment of a fuel injector according to the invention shown in FIG. 1 in area II in FIG. 1.
- FIG. 1 An exemplary embodiment of a fuel injection valve 1 according to the invention shown in FIG. 1 is in the form of a fuel injection valve 1 for fuel injection systems of mixture-compressing, spark-ignited internal combustion engines.
- the fuel injection valve 1 is particularly suitable for injecting fuel directly into a combustion chamber (not shown) of an internal combustion engine.
- the fuel injection valve 1 consists of a nozzle body 2, in which a valve needle 3 is arranged.
- the valve needle 3 is operatively connected to a valve closing body 4, which is connected to a valve seat body 5 arranged valve seat surface 6 cooperates to form a sealing seat.
- the fuel injection valve 1 is a fuel injection valve 1 that opens inwards and has a spray opening 7.
- the nozzle body 2 is sealed by a seal 8 against an outer pole 9 of a solenoid 10.
- the magnet coil 10 is encapsulated in a coil housing 11 and wound on a coil carrier 12 which bears against an inner pole 13 of the magnet coil 10.
- the inner pole 13 and the outer pole 9 are separated from one another by a constriction 26 and connected to one another by a non-ferromagnetic connecting component 29.
- the magnet coil 10 is excited via a line 19 by an electrical current that can be supplied via an electrical plug contact 17.
- the plug contact 17 is surrounded by a plastic sheath 18, which can be molded onto the inner pole 13.
- An armature 20 is movably arranged on the valve needle 3. This is spaced from a first flange 21, which is non-positively connected to the valve needle 3 by means of a weld seam 22, by a preliminary stroke gap 27.
- a return spring 23 is supported on the first flange 21, which in the present design of the fuel injection valve 1 is preloaded by a sleeve 24.
- a working air gap 33 is formed between a lower stop surface of the inner pole 13 and the armature 20.
- Fuel channels 30 and 32 run in the armature 20 and on a guide element 36.
- the fuel is supplied via a central fuel supply 16 and filtered by a filter element 25.
- the fuel injector 1 is sealed by a seal 28 against a fuel rail, not shown, and by a further seal 37, against a cylinder head, not shown.
- a second flange 34 is arranged on the spray-side side of the armature 20, which is also non-positively connected to the valve needle 3 via a weld seam 35.
- a cup-shaped sleeve 14 is provided on the outflow side of the armature 20 and in fixed connection therewith, in which a spring 31 is arranged, which is supported between the sleeve 14 and the second flange 34.
- a stop ring 38 fixed to the housing serves as an anchor stop on the downstream side.
- the valve needle 3 In the idle state of the fuel injection valve 1, the valve needle 3 is acted upon by the return spring 23 against its stroke direction in such a way that the valve closing body 4 is held in sealing contact with the valve seat surface 6.
- the magnet coil 10 When the magnet coil 10 is excited, it builds up a magnetic field, which initially moves the armature 20 in the stroke direction against the spring force of the spring 31, the preliminary stroke or the armature free travel being achieved by a preliminary stroke gap 27 located in the rest position between the first flange 21 and the armature 20 is specified.
- the armature 20 After passing through the forward stroke, the armature 20 is pulled against the force of the return spring 23 to the inner pole 13 of the magnet coil 10, the armature 20 taking along the first flange 21, which is welded to the valve needle 3, whereby this is also carried in the stroke direction.
- the valve closing body 4, which is connected to the valve needle 3, lifts off the valve seat surface 6, and the fuel guided via the fuel channels 30 and 32 is sprayed off through the spray opening 7.
- the armature 20 drops from the inner pole 13 after the magnetic field has been sufficiently reduced by the pressure of the return spring 23, as a result of which the first flange 21, which is connected to the valve needle 3, moves counter to the stroke direction.
- the valve needle 3 will thereby moved in the same direction, whereby the valve closing body 4 rests on the valve seat surface 6 and the fuel injector 1 is closed.
- the sleeve 14 is at the same time on the housing-fixed stop ring 38.
- the armature 20 is arranged on the valve needle 3 in a freely swinging manner. So-called first order anchor bumpers are avoided by preventing the armature 20 from striking the flange 34 during the closing direction of the fuel injector 1 during the closing movement. Instead, it is intercepted by the stop ring 38. The armature 20 is therefore braked by the spring 31 during the closing movement. At the same time, the pre-stroke principle, which enables the opening dynamics of fuel injector 1 to be improved, is also implemented.
- the sleeve 14 is connected to the armature 20 via a collar 39 fixed, '- for example by welding, soldering' -or gluing.
- the stop ring 38 is fixed to the housing, for example by being pressed in or welded to the outer pole 9 of the fuel injection valve 1.
- the invention is not limited to the exemplary embodiment shown and can also be used for other forms of fuel injection valves 1.
