Definitions

  • Solenoid valves can be used on fuel injection systems for actuating fuel injectors.
  • the solenoid valves comprise an electromagnet which is introduced into the injector body and which cooperates with an armature group which comprises an anchor bolt and an armature plate.
  • the anchor bolt is designed such that a closing body is received on the latter, which closes or releases a drain of a control chamber actuating the nozzle needle of the fuel injector.
  • annular shoulder can be arranged on the anchor bolt, which is enclosed by a part of the first anchor part and an annular shoulder is also attached to the first anchor part, between which and the annular shoulder of the anchor bolt a damping space is constantly enclosed, which in turn is enclosed by a Leak gap has a connection to ei ⁇ nem surrounding relief space.
  • a magnet group is then screwed together with the adjusting ring dimensioned according to the calculation in the injector body, and then the armature stroke is measured with a screwed or tensioned state.
  • tolerances in the micrometer range are tolerable at most for the armature stroke in order to ensure a reproducible injector behavior. Due to the permitted only slight tolerance deviation, the armature stroke is not always within the tolerance values after a first assembly, as described above.
  • the magnet group In order to then ensure the setting of the armature stroke within the narrow tolerance values, the magnet group must be completely disassembled and the armature stroke must be readjusted by selecting an adjusting ring of a different dimensioning. If necessary, this process must even be repeated several times until an acceptable tolerance compliance of the armature stroke is achieved.
  • the anchor plate 7 can be quickly returned by the emerging from the or the discharge ports 24 fuel back to its original position, wherein the striking of the upper plane of the anchor plate 7 on the executed as a sickle disc stop. 5 with a relatively small pulse.
  • the flow of the Abêtmenge within the discharge throttle chamber 34 is present shortly after the closing of the valve seat 32 by the closing element 13.
  • the relatively small leakage quantities of nozzles and valve guide are permanently available.
