Abstract
Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung bezieht sich auf das Gebiet der Verbrennungsmotoren mit Kraftstoffeinspritzung. Sie betrifft einen Injektor für eine Kraftstoffeinspritzanlage gemäss dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1 sowie eine Kraftstoffeinspritzanlage mit einem solchen Injektor.The present invention relates to the field of internal combustion engines with fuel injection. It relates to an injector for a fuel injection system according to the preamble of
Bei Kraftstoffeinspritzanlagen nach dem Common-Rail-Prinzip wird üblicherweise der von einer Hochdruckpumpe geförderte Kraftstoff in das Speichervolumen eines sich entlang der Reihe der Injektoren erstreckenden Common Rails gepumpt, von dem aus einzelne Abzweigleitungen zu jedem der einzeln angesteuerten Injektoren abgehen. Eine solche Anordnung mit einem separaten Common Rail hat verschiedene Nachteile: Der separate Common Rail, der für die hohen Kraftstoffdrücke ausgelegt sein muss, erfordert herstellungstechnisch einen erheblichen Aufwand. Dies gilt insbesondere auch für die Verschraubungen und Anschlüsse der Abzweigleitungen zu den Injektoren, sowie der Zu- und Rückleitungen von und zu der Hochdruckpumpe. Jeder dieser Anschlüsse stellt im Bezug auf die Dichtigkeit ein Risiko dar. Darüber hinaus nimmt der Common Rail im Motorraum, in dem immer mehr Zusatzaggregate untergebracht werden müssen, einen erheblichen Raum ein.In common-rail fuel injection systems, the fuel delivered by a high-pressure pump is usually pumped into the storage volume of a common rail extending along the row of injectors, from which individual branch lines are supplied to each of them individually go off the controlled injectors. Such an arrangement with a separate common rail has various disadvantages: The separate common rail, which must be designed for the high fuel pressures, requires considerable manufacturing effort. This applies in particular also to the screw connections and connections of the branch lines to the injectors, as well as the supply and return lines from and to the high-pressure pump. Each of these connections poses a risk in terms of tightness. In addition, the common rail in the engine compartment, in which more and more auxiliary units must be accommodated, takes up a considerable space.
Es ist in der
Eine solche Konfiguration ist in schematisierter Form in Fig. 1 wiedergegeben, wobei nur zwei Injektoren 11 und 12 dargestellt sind. Jeder der Injektoren 11, 12 hat einen internen Hochdruckraum 14, der nach unten zu in eine Einspritzdüse 13 mündet, die mittels einer Düsennadel 16 geöffnet und verschlossen werden kann. Der Hochdruckraum 14 ist nach Art eines T-Stücks durch einen engen Verbindungskanal 15 mit einem zwischen zwei Hochdruckanschlüssen A verlaufenden Leitungsstück der Hochdruckleitung 17 verbunden. Die Hochdruckleitung 17 bildet den Common Rail und bestimmt dessen Speichervolumen. Die Hochdruckräume 14 in den Injektoren 11, 12 sind durch die engen Verbindungskanäle 15 von der Hochdruckleitung 17 fluiddynamisch entkoppelt, so dass sie für die Common-Rail-Funktion keine Rolle spielen. Um ein ausreichendes Speichervolumen zu erhalten, muss daher die Hochdruckleitung 17 entsprechend ausgelegt werden. Zugleich verändert sich das Speichervolumen erheblich mit dem Abstand der Injektoren voneinander.Such a configuration is shown schematically in Fig. 1, wherein only two
Es ist daher Aufgabe der Erfindung, einen Injektor für eine Kraftstoffeinspritzanlage nach dem Common-Rail-Prinzip zu schaffen, welcher eine Vereinfachung der Einspritzanlage ermöglicht, ohne die Nachteile bekannter Lösungen aufzuweisen, sowie eine mit solchen Injektoren arbeitende Kraftstoffeinspritzanlage anzugeben.It is therefore an object of the invention to provide an injector for a fuel injection system according to the common rail principle, which allows a simplification of the injection system, without having the disadvantages of known solutions, and to specify a working with such injectors fuel injection system.
Die Aufgabe wird durch die Gesamtheit der Merkmale der Ansprüche 1 und 9 gelöst. Der erfindungsgemässe Injektor zeichnet sich dadurch aus, dass im Injektorgehäuse wenigstens zwei separate Hochdruckanschlüsse vorgesehen sind, welche den Zugang von aussen zum Hochdruckraum ermöglichen und jeweils für den Anschluss einer Hochdruckleitung ausgebildet sind. Bei der Kraftstoffeinspritzanlage nach der Erfindung sind die Injektoren mit ihren Hochdruckanschlüssen in der Hochdruckleitung derart in Serie angeordnet, dass die Hochdruckleitung durch den Hochdruckraum jedes Injektors hindurchführt.The object is solved by the totality of the features of
Eine Ausgestaltung des erfindungsgemässen Injektors ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass die Hochdruckanschlüsse am oberen Ende des Hochdruckraumes angeordnet sind, und dass die Hochdruckanschlüsse in axialer Richtung auf gleicher Höhe angeordnet sind. Hierdurch ergibt sich eine gute Zugänglichkeit und eine Vereinfachung bei der Herstellung und beim Anschluss. Dies gilt insbesondere, wenn gemäss einer Weiterbildung zwei Hochdruckanschlüsse vorgesehen sind, und die beiden Hochdruckanschlüsse im Bezug auf die Achse einander gegenüberliegend angeordnet sind und miteinander fluchten.An embodiment of the injector according to the invention is characterized in that the high-pressure connections are arranged at the upper end of the high-pressure chamber, and that the high-pressure connections are arranged in the axial direction at the same height. This results in good accessibility and ease of manufacture and connection. This applies in particular if, according to a further development, two high-pressure connections are provided, and the two high-pressure connections are arranged opposite one another with respect to the axis and are aligned with one another.
Eine weitere Vereinfachung ergibt sich, wenn die Hochdruckanschlüsse in Ausgestaltung und Abmessungen, insbesondere hinsichtlich des Durchlassquerschnitts, einander gleich sind.A further simplification results when the high-pressure connections in configuration and dimensions, in particular with respect to the passage cross-section, are equal to each other.
Die Hochdruckanschlüsse weisen vorzugsweise ein Gewinde zum lösbaren Anschrauben der Hochdruckleitung auf, wobei insbesondere das Gewinde als Innengewinde ausgebildet ist.The high pressure ports preferably have a thread for releasably screwing the high pressure line, in particular, the thread is formed as an internal thread.
Besonders einfach wird der Injektor, wenn der Hochdruckraum koaxial zur Achse des Injektors angeordnet ist.The injector becomes particularly simple if the high-pressure chamber is arranged coaxially with the axis of the injector.
Der Kerngedanke der erfindungsgemässen Kraftstoffeinspritzanlage besteht darin, Injektoren mit einem Hochdruckraum einzusetzen, aus welchem der für die Einspritzung benötigte Kraftstoff entnommen wird, wobei das Volumen des Hochdruckraums so gross gewählt ist, dass die Summe der Volumina der Hochdruckräume mehrerer gleichartiger Injektoren in einer Common-Rail-Einspritzanlage zur Bildung des für den Common Rail notwendigen Speichervolumens ausreicht, und diese Injektoren mit ihren Hochdruckräumen hintereinander in die Hochdruckleitung einzufügen, so dass die Hochdruckräume zusammen mit der sie verbindenden Hochdruckleitung einen Common Rail mit entsprechendem Speichervolumen bilden. Hierdurch kann auf besonders einfache und effektive Weise eine platzsparende Kraftstoffeinspritzanlage nach dem Common-Rail-Prinzip realisiert werden.The core idea of the inventive fuel injection system is to use injectors with a high-pressure chamber, from which the fuel required for the injection is removed, the volume of the high-pressure chamber is chosen so large that the sum of the volumes of the high-pressure chambers of several similar injectors in a common rail Injection system sufficient to form the storage volume required for the common rail, and to insert these injectors with their high-pressure chambers in a row in the high-pressure line, so that the high-pressure chambers together with the high-pressure line connecting them form a common rail with a corresponding storage volume. As a result, a space-saving fuel injection system according to the common rail principle can be realized in a particularly simple and effective manner.
Für die Kraftstoffeinspritzanlage können mit Vorteil die Injektoren nach der Erfindung eingesetzt werden.For the fuel injection system, the injectors according to the invention can be used with advantage.
Eine Ausgestaltung der erfindungsgemässen Kraftstoffeinspritzanlage ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass von dem letzten der in Serie liegenden Injektoren eine Rückleitung zur Hochdruckpumpe zurückgeführt ist. Hierdurch wird eine Art Ringleitung gebildet, die für den Ausgleich von Druckschwankungen im gebildeten Speichervolumen vorteilhaft ist.An embodiment of the fuel injection system according to the invention is characterized in that a return line to the high-pressure pump is returned from the last of the injectors in series. As a result, a kind of loop is formed, which is advantageous for the compensation of pressure fluctuations in the storage volume formed.

In Fig. 2 ist in einer zu Fig. 1 vergleichbaren Darstellung das Prinzip der Kraftstoffeinspritzanlage nach der Erfindung wiedergegeben. Von der Kraftstoffeinspritzanlage 10' sind auch hier wieder nur zwei Injektoren 11' und 12' von mehreren gezeigt. Jeder der Injektoren 11', 12' hat einen innenliegenden Hochdruckraum 14', aus dem unter Hochdruck stehender Kraftstoff durch das aus Einspritzdüse 13 und Düsennadel 16 gebildete Einspritzventil in den Brennraum eingespritzt wird. An den Hochdruckräumen 14' der Injektoren 11', 12' sind seitlich und gegenüberliegend jeweils zwei Hochdruckanschlüsse A' angeordnet, mit denen die Injektoren 11', 12' in die von der Hochdruckpumpe kommende Hochdruckleitung 17' so in Serie eingefügt werden können, dass die Hochdruckräume 14' und die sie verbindenden Abschnitt der Hochdruckleitung ein durchgehendes Speichervolumen nach Art eines Common Rail bilden. Voraussetzung dafür ist, dass das Volumen des einzelnen Hochdruckraums 14' gross genug ist, so dass die Summe der Volumina aller in Serie liegenden Injektoren als Common-Rail-Speichervolumen ausreicht.2, the principle of the fuel injection system according to the invention is shown in a representation comparable to FIG. 1 representation. Of the fuel injection system 10 'again only two injectors 11' and 12 'are shown by several. Each of the injectors 11 ', 12' has an internal one High-pressure chamber 14 'is injected from the high-pressure fuel through the
Um diese Anforderungen erfüllen zu können, wird ein neuartiger Injektor vorgeschlagen. In Fig. 3 ist im Längsschnitt ein bevorzugtes Ausführungsbeispiel eines solchen Injektors nach der Erfindung wiedergegeben. Der Injektor 20 ist für die Direkteinspritzung von Kraftstoff, vorzugsweise für Dieselmotoren, basierend auf dem Common-Rail-Prinzip, vorgesehen.To meet these requirements, a novel injector is proposed. In Fig. 3 is a longitudinal section of a preferred embodiment of such an injector according to the invention reproduced. The
Der Injektor 20 hat innerhalb eines Injektorgehäuses 18 einen in der Längsrichtung (entlang der Achse 45) verlaufenden, koaxialen Hochdruckraum 23, in welchem sich beispielsweise die Düsennadel 26 des Injektors 20 befindet. Am unteren Ende des Injektorgehäuses 18 ist das eigentliche Einspritzventil 22 mittels einer Überwurfmutter 37 angeschraubt. Am unteren Ende des Einspritzventils 22 befinden sich Einspritzlöcher 38, die mit dem Hochdruckraum 23 in Verbindung stehen und mit der Düsennadel 26 geöffnet oder verschlossen werden können. Eine solche Anordnung der Düsennadel 26 mit ihrem Nadelschaft 21 ist für die Erfindung besonders vorteilhaft, weil dieser Hochdruckraum 23 gegenüber herkömmlichen Injektoren ein deutlich grösseres Volumen aufweist. So verläuft bei einem Standard Common-Rail-Injektor, wie er beispielsweise in der
Im Zentrum der Erfindung steht - wie bereits weiter oben gesagt - der Gedanke, den gemeinsamen Rail, welcher das Speichervolumen bei dem Stand der Technik entsprechenden Common-Rail-Systemen bildet, wegzulassen. Als Ersatz dient die Summe der einzelnen Volumina der Hochdruckräume 23 in den Injektoren, indem diese über einfache Hochdruckleitungen untereinander in einer Art Serienschaltung verbunden werden (Fig. 4).At the center of the invention is - as already mentioned above - the idea to omit the common rail, which forms the storage volume in the prior art corresponding common rail systems. As a substitute, the sum of the individual volumes of the high-
Hierzu muss der Hochdruckraum 23 des Injektors 20 mindestens zwei separate Hochdruckanschlüsse 24 und 25 aufweisen (Fig. 3). Diese Hochdruckanschlüsse 24, 25 sind seitlich in radialer Richtung abstehend am Injektorgehäuse 18 angebracht und münden jeweils in den Hochdruckraum 23 und schaffen so eine Verbindung des Hochdruckraums 23 zu den Hochdruckverbindungsleitungen (43 in Fig. 4), welche die in Serie geschalteten Injektoren 20.1,...,20.4 untereinander verbinden (Fig.4). Die Hochdruckpumpe 41 weist ebenfalls zwei Hochdruckanschlüsse auf und bildet zusammen mit der Hochdruckzuleitung 42, den Injektoren 20.1,...,20.4, den Hochdruckverbindungsleitungen 43 und der Rückleitung 44 eine Art Ringleitung, was für den Ausgleich von Druckschwankungen im gebildeten Speichervolumen vorteilhaft ist.For this purpose, the high-
Die Hochdruckanschlüsse 24, 25 am Injektorgehäuse 18 sind in axialer Richtung vorzugsweise auf gleicher Höhe angeordnet. Sie sind im Bezug auf die Achse 45 einander gegenüberliegend angeordnet und fluchten miteinander. Darüber hinaus sind sie in Ausgestaltung und Abmessungen, insbesondere hinsichtlich des Durchlassquerschnitts, einander gleich. Die Hochdruckanschlüsse 24, 25 weisen beispielsweise ein (in Fig. 3 nicht eingezeichnetes) Innengewinde auf, welches als Gegengewinde für eine (nicht dargestellte) Hochdruckverschraubung zur druckfesten Verbindung mit der Hochdruckleitung 42, 43, 44 (Fig. 4) dient. Analog sind die Verbindungsstellen an der Hochdruckpumpe 41 (Fig. 4) ausgeführt.The high-
Der in Fig. 3 dargestellte Injektor 20 hat im einzelnen den folgenden Aufbau:The
Oben am Injektor 20 ist ein Stellmechanismus 19 zur Steuerung des Einspritzventils 22 schematisch dargestellt. Der Stellmechanismus 19 weist z.B. einen Elektromagneten 30 auf, welcher bei Beaufschlagung mit einem über den Anschluss 28 eingespeisten Erregungsimpuls einen zugehörigen Anker 31 anzieht und dadurch eine Steuerbohrung 32 frei gibt (der Elektromagnet 30 selbst ist fest mit dem Injektorgehäuse 18 verbunden). Durch das Öffnen der Steuerbohrung 32 fällt der Druck in einem darunter angeordneten Steuerraum 34 ab. Ein im Steuerraum 34 in axialer Richtung gleitend beweglicher Steuerkolben 35 und der daran anschliessende Nadelschaft 21 werden mitsamt der Düsennadel 26 gegen den Druck einer Schliessfeder 36 angehoben, die an der unteren Spitze des Einspritzventils 22 angeordneten Einspritzlöcher 38 werden freigegeben, und der Kraftstoff wird aus dem Hochdruckraum 23 in den die Spitze des Einspritzventils 22 umgebenden Brennraum 39 eingespritzt.At the top of the
Wird die Erregung des Elektromagneten 30 unterbrochen, drückt die Feder 29 den Anker 31 nach unten, und die Steuerbohrung 32 wird verschlossen. Durch die zum Steuerraum 34 führende kleinere Bohrung 33 strömt Kraftstoff in den Steuerraum 34 nach. Die auf den Steuerkolben 35 wirkende Druckdifferenz hebt sich dadurch auf, die Schliessfeder 36 drückt den Nadelschaft 21 mit der Düsennadel 26 nach unten, und die Einspritzung durch die Einspritzlöcher 38 wird unterbrochen.If the excitation of the
Die während der offenen Steuerbohrung 32 (bei erregtem Elektromagneten 30) abfliessende Kraftstoffmenge strömt durch den hohlen Anker 31 nach oben durch einen Rückflussnippel 27 über einen nicht dargestellten Sammelschlauch in den (ebenfalls nicht dargestellten) Kraftstofftank zurück.The flowing during the open control bore 32 (energized electromagnet 30) amount of fuel flows through the
Eine beispielhafte Kraftstoffeinspritzanlage 40 nach der Erfindung für vier Zylinder ist in Fig. 4 vereinfacht dargestellt. Von einer Hochdruckpumpe 41 für den Kraftstoff geht eine Hochdruckzuleitung 42 zu den vier in Serie liegenden und untereinander mit Hochdruckverbindungsleitungen 43 verbundenen Injektoren 20.1 bis 20.4. Vom letzten Injektor 20.1 aus der Reihe der vier Injektoren geht eine Rückleitung 44 zurück zur Hochdruckpumpe 41. Die Injektoren 20.1 bis 20.4 haben vorzugsweise den inneren Aufbau, wie er in Fig. 3 anhand des Injektors 20 dargestellt ist. Sie sind mit ihren Hochdruckräumen 23 direkt in die aus den Leitungen 42, 43 und 44 gebildete Ringleitung eingefügt. Die Summe der Volumina der vier Hochdruckräume 23 sowie der zwischengeschalteten Hochdruckverbindungsleitungen 43 bildet nach Art eines Common Rail ein Speichervolumen für den unter Hochdruck stehenden Kraftstoff, welches den herkömmlichen externen Common Rail vollständig ersetzen kann. Es versteht sich von selbst, dass das Prinzip der Erfindung nicht nur für vier Zylinder, sondern in analoger Weise auch für andere Zylinderzahlen wie z.B. 3, 5, 6 oder 8 eingesetzt werden kann.An exemplary
