Stand der TechnikState of the art
Die Erfindung geht aus von einer Brennkraftmaschine, nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to an internal combustion engine, according to the preamble of claim 1.
Bei einer bekannten Kraftstoffeinspritzvorrichtung für eine Brennkraftmaschine (JP-10196440 A) spritzt das erste Einspritzventil stromaufwärts einer in den Ansaugkanal zur Luftmengenregelung eingesetzten Drosselklappe und das zweite Einspritzventil stromabwärts der Drosselklappe jeweils in den Ansaugkanal der Brennkraftmaschine ein, wobei die Einspritzung des zweiten Einspritzventils zeitlich vor der Einspritzung durch das erste Einspritzventil vorgenommen wird.In a known fuel injection device for an internal combustion engine (JP-10196440 A) injects the first injection valve upstream of a throttle inserted into the intake duct for air flow control and the second injection valve downstream of the throttle valve respectively in the intake passage of the internal combustion engine, wherein the injection of the second injection valve in time before Injection is made by the first injection valve.
Offenbarung der ErfindungDisclosure of the invention
Die erfindungsgemäße Brennkraftmaschine mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 hat den Vorteil, dass mit den beiden in den Ansaugkanal des mindestens einen Verbrennungszylinders einspritzenden, unterschiedlich konzipierten Einspritzventile der Kraftstoffeintrag in Richtung Einlassventil in unterschiedlicher Weise durchgeführt werden kann, die in unterschiedlichenThe internal combustion engine according to the invention with the features of claim 1 has the advantage that with the two injected into the intake passage of the at least one combustion cylinder, differently designed injection valves, the fuel input in the direction of intake valve can be performed in different ways, in different
Betriebsbereichen der Brennkraftmaschine zu einer deutlich verbesserten Gemischaufbereitung und Verbrennung führt. So ist es von Vorteil, bei betriebswarmer Brennkraftmaschine und hoher Last den Kraftstoff mit hoher Penetration bei geöffnetem Einlassventil direkt in den Brennraum einzuspritzen, während bei kalter Brennkraftmaschine eine starke Wandbenetzung des dem Einlassventil unmittelbar vorgeordneten Wandbereichs des Ansaugkanals zu einer besserenOperating areas of the internal combustion engine leads to a significantly improved mixture preparation and combustion. Thus, it is advantageous to inject the fuel with high penetration at an open inlet valve directly into the combustion chamber at high operating temperature engine and high load, while in cold engine strong wall wetting of the inlet valve immediately upstream wall portion of the intake duct to a better
Verbrennung führt, da der Wandfilm erst zeitlich versetzt in den Brennraum gelangt. Durch die erfindungsgemäß unterschiedliche Konzeption der beiden Einspritzventile lässt sich diese betriebspunktabhängige Optimierung der Verbrennung durch unterschiedliche Ansteuerung der beiden Einspritzventile in unterschiedlichen Betriebsbreichen der Brennkraftmaschine in einfacher Weise erreichen. So kann durch die Nutzung der beiden Einspritzventile in unterschiedlicher Weise in unterschiedlichen Betriebsbereichen die Lambda- Verteilung im Brennraum optimiert, lokale Überfettung, die verbunden ist mit hohen Kohlenwasserstoff (HC)-Anfall, und lokale Ausmagerung, die ein Klopfen der Brennkraftmaschine begünstigt, vermieden, sowie ein reduzierter Kraftstoffverbrauch erzielt werden. So kann z.B. im Kaltstart durch Einsatz des ersten Einspritzventils infolge der kleineren Kraftstofftröpfchen in dessen Spraykegel die Gemischaufbereitung verbessert und die HC-Emissionen reduziert werden. Bei Volllast wird durch stärke Nutzung des zweiten Einspritzventils mit der größeren Penetration bis in den Brennraum und mit minimierter Wandfilmerzeugung im Ansaugkanal die Verdampfungswärme des Kraftstoffs stärker der Zylinderladung als der Wandung des Ansaugkanals entnommen, womit die Zylinderladung stärker abkühlt und die Klopfempfindlichkeit abnimmt.Combustion results because the wall film only reaches the combustion chamber at a later stage. By virtue of the different conception of the two injection valves according to the invention, this operating point-dependent optimization of the combustion can be simplified by different activation of the two injection valves in different operating ranges of the internal combustion engine Reach way. Thus, by using the two injectors differently in different operating ranges optimizes the Lambda distribution in the combustion chamber, local superfatting, which is associated with high hydrocarbon (HC) incidence, and local Ausmagerung, which favors a knocking of the internal combustion engine, avoided and a reduced fuel consumption can be achieved. For example, in the cold start by using the first injection valve as a result of the smaller fuel droplets in the spray cone, the mixture preparation improved and the HC emissions can be reduced. At full load is used by strong use of the second injector with the greater penetration into the combustion chamber and minimized Wandfilhmzeugung in the intake manifold, the heat of vaporization of the fuel more of the cylinder charge than the wall of the intake channel, whereby the cylinder charge cools more and the knock sensitivity decreases.
Bei aufgeladenen Brennkraftmaschinen ist die Nutzung des sog. Scavenging ohne eines direkt in den Brennraum einspritzenden Einspritzventils möglich, da das zweite Einspritzventil angesichts des kleinen Kegelwinkels seines Spraykegels keinen oder eines nur minimalen Wandfilm imIn supercharged internal combustion engines, the use of the so-called. Scavenging is possible without injecting directly into the combustion chamber injection valve, since the second injection valve in view of the small cone angle of its spray cone no or a minimal wall film in

When flushing the combustion chamber with air (scavenging) so that little or no fuel enters the combustion chamber in the direction of the catalyst. Scavenging can be realized with tolerable load for the catalytic converter and, in conjunction with turbocharging, leads to a significant torque gain at low speeds.
Im Motorauslauf kann durch Heranziehen des zweiten Einspritzventils der Wandfilm im Ansaugkanal minimiert werden, so dass beim Neustart der Brennkraftmaschine, insbesondere bei Start/Stopp-Anwendungen, die Schadstoffemissionen reduziert werden.In the engine outlet can be minimized by using the second injection valve of the wall film in the intake passage, so that when restarting the internal combustion engine, especially in start / stop applications, the pollutant emissions are reduced.
Durch die in den weiteren Ansprüchen aufgeführten Maßnahmen sind vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen und Verbesserungen der im Anspruch 1 angegebenen Kraftstoffeinspritzvorrichtung möglich.The measures listed in the further claims advantageous refinements and improvements of the claim 1 fuel injection device are possible.
Mit den in diesen Ansprüchen angegebenen unterschiedlichen Ausführungen der Einspritzventile und/oder der Einlassventile bei einem Brennraum mit zwei jeweils einen Einlass verschließenden Einlassventilen und durch die spezielle Zuordnung von Einlassventil und Einspritzventil können in Verbindung mit einer getrennten Ansteuerung der Einspritzventile die vorstehend beschriebenen Effekte der Reduzierung der Klopfneigung, Optimierung des Verbrennungsgemischs mit Vermeidung lokaler Überfettung und lokaler Ausmagerung und Verbrauchsreduzierung graduell verbessert werden. Gemäß einer vorteilhaften Ausführungsform der Erfindung sind die Einspritzventile elektrisch ansteuerbare Magnetventile. Solche Magnetventile sind deutlich kostengünstiger als häufig verwendete piezoelektrische Einspritzventile.With the different embodiments of the injection valves and / or the intake valves in a combustion chamber with two inlet valves closing each inlet and by the special allocation of inlet valve and injection valve, the above-described effects of the reduction of the injection valves can be described in connection with a separate activation of the injection valves Tapping tendency, optimization of the combustion mixture with prevention of local over-greasing and local Ausmagerung and consumption reduction gradually improved. According to an advantageous embodiment of the invention, the injection valves are electrically controllable solenoid valves. Such solenoid valves are significantly less expensive than commonly used piezoelectric injectors.

Von einer üblicherweise mehrzylindrigen Brennkraftmaschine für z.B. Kraftfahrzeuge ist in Fig. 1 lediglich ein Verbrennungszylinder 11 ausschnittweise im Längsschnitt schematisiert dargestellt. Der außen mit einem Kühlwassermantel 12 umgebene Verbrennungszylinder 11 ist stirnseitig von einem Zylinderkopf 13 gasdicht abgedeckt. Ein im Verbrennungszylinder 11 axial verschieblich geführter Hubkolben 14 begrenzt zusammen mit dem Zylinderkopf 13 einen Brennraum 15. Der Hubkolben 14 ist über ein Pleuel 16 mit einer hier nicht dargestellten Kurbelwelle verbunden, auf die auch die Hubkolben der anderen Verbrennungszylinder wirken.From a usually mehrzylindrigen engine for eg motor vehicles, only a combustion cylinder 11 is shown in fragmentary longitudinal section in Fig. 1 schematically. The outside of a cooling water jacket 12 surrounded combustion cylinder 11 is frontally covered by a cylinder head 13 gas-tight. A in the combustion cylinder 11 axially displaceable guided reciprocating piston 14 is limited together with the cylinder head 13, a combustion chamber 15. The reciprocating piston 14 is connected via a connecting rod 16 with a crankshaft, not shown here, act on the piston and the other combustion cylinder.
Der Brennraum 15 weist in einem in Verbindung mit Fig. 1 in Fig. 3 bis 5 illustrierten ersten Ausführungsbeispiel einen mit einem Einlassventil 17 verschließbaren Einlass 18 und einen mit einem Auslassventil 19 verschließbaren Auslass 20 auf. Zu dem Einlass 18 ist ein Ansaugkanal 21 für Verbrennungsluft geführt, der aus einem im Zylinderkopf 13 ausgeformten Einlasskanal 22 und einem an den Einlasskanal 22 angesetzten Saugrohr 23 zusammengesetzt ist. Stromaufwärts sind üblicherweise die Saugrohre 23 mehrerer Verbrennungszylinder 11 mittels eines Saugrohrkrümmers zu einem Luftansaugstutzen zusammengefasst, in dem ein Luftmengensteuerorgan, vorzugsweise eine Drosselklappe, zur Luftmengenregulierung angeordnet ist. In Fig. 1 ist lediglich zur Verdeutlichung die Drosselklappe 36 in das Saugrohr 23 des einen Verbrennungszylinders 11 eingezeichnet. Vom Auslass 20 ist ein Abgaskanal 24 abgeführt, der aus einem im Zylinderkopf 13 ausgebildeten Auslasskanal 25 und einem an den Auslasskanal 25 angesetzten Abgasrohr 26 besteht. Die Abgasrohre 26 mehrerer Verbrennungszylinder 11 sind stromabwärts über einen Abgaskrümmer zusammengefasst.In a first exemplary embodiment illustrated in conjunction with FIG. 1 in FIGS. 3 to 5, the combustion chamber 15 has an inlet 18 closable with an inlet valve 17 and an outlet 20 closable with an outlet valve 19. To the inlet 18 a combustion air intake duct 21 is guided, which is composed of an inlet duct 22 formed in the cylinder head 13 and a suction duct 23 attached to the inlet duct 22. Upstream usually the suction pipes 23 of a plurality of combustion cylinders 11 are combined by means of a Saugrohrkrümmers to an air intake in which an air quantity control member, preferably a throttle valve is arranged to regulate the air flow. In Fig. 1, the throttle valve 36 is shown in the suction tube 23 of a combustion cylinder 11 only for clarity. From the outlet 20, an exhaust duct 24 is removed, which consists of an exhaust duct 25 formed in the cylinder head 13 and an exhaust pipe 26 attached to the exhaust duct 25. The exhaust pipes 26 of a plurality of combustion cylinders 11 are combined downstream via an exhaust manifold.
Zur Kraftstoffversorgung des Brennraums 15 des mindestens einen Verbrennungszylinders 11 ist eine Kraftstoffeinspritzvorrichtung 27 vorgesehen, die pro Verbrennungszylinder 11 bzw. pro Brennraum 15 zwei elektromagnetische Einspritzventile 28, 29 aufweist. Die beiden Einspritzventile 28, 29 werden von einer Kraftstoff aus einem Kraftstofftank 30 fördernden Kraftstoffpumpe 31 mit Kraftstoff versorgt und von einer elektronischen Steuereinheit 32, der eine Vielzahl von die Betriebspunkte der Brennkraftmaschine festlegende Parameter zugeführt sind, gesteuert. Die beiden Einspritzventile 28, 29 sind stromabwärts der Drosselklappe 36 in in dem Ansaugkanal 21, hier im Saugrohr 23, vorgehaltene Einstecköffhungen 33,37 (Fig. 3 bis 5) so eingesetzt, dass sie Kraftstoff in den Ansaugkanal 21 einzuspritzen vermögen, wobei der Kraftstoff zerstäubt in Form von Spraykegeln von den Einspritzventilen 28, 29 abgespritzt wird. Die beiden möglichst nahe des Einlassventils 17 angeordneten Einspritzventile 28, 29 sind so ausgerichtet, dass ihre Spraykegel auf das Einlassventil 17 gerichtet sind. Die beiden Einspritzventile 28, 29 sind sowohl hinsichtlich des Kraftstoffdurchflusses als auch hinsichtlich der Ausbildung des abgespritzten Kraftstoff-Spraykegels unterschiedlich ausgebildet. Das erste Einspritzventil 28 spritzt einen breit aufgefächerten Spraykegel 34 (Fig. 5) mit einem großen Kegelwinkel und das zweite Einspritzventil 29 einen nur wenig aufgefächerten Spraykegel 35 (Fig. 4) mit deutlich kleinerem Kegelwinkel ab. Dabei hat der Spraykegel 35 des zweiten Einspritzventils 29 eine deutlich größere Penetration, kann also bei geöffnetem Einlassventil 17 wesentlich tiefer in den Brennraum 15 eindringen als der Spraykegel 34 des ersten Einspritzventils 28 mit deutlich kleinerer Penetration. Das zweite Einspritzventils 29 ist außerdem im Vergleich zum ersten Einspritzventil 28 für einen deutlich größeren Kraftstoffdurchfluss ausgelegt und vermag z. B mindestens 70% der Volllastmenge abzuspritzen. Im dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel hat die Einstecköffhung 33 für das erste Einspritzventil 28 einen etwas größeren Abstand vom Einlass 18, als die Einstecköffhung 37 für das zweite Einspritzventil 29, so dass die Abspritzöffhung des ersten Einspritzventils 28 vom Einlassventil 17 etwas weiter entfernt ist als die Abspritzöffhung des zweiten Einspritzventils 29. Eine gleiche Abstandsanordnung der beiden Einstecköffhungen 33, 37 vom Einlass 18 ist ebenfalls möglich.For fuel supply to the combustion chamber 15 of the at least one combustion cylinder 11, a fuel injection device 27 is provided which has two electromagnetic injection valves 28, 29 per combustion cylinder 11 or per combustion chamber 15. The two injection valves 28, 29 are supplied with fuel by a fuel pump 31 which delivers fuel from a fuel tank 30 and is controlled by an electronic control unit 32, which is supplied with a plurality of parameters defining the operating points of the internal combustion engine.

The two injectors 28, 29 arranged as close as possible to the inlet valve 17 are aligned so that their spray cones are directed towards the inlet valve 17. The two injection valves 28, 29 are formed differently both in terms of fuel flow and in terms of the formation of the sprayed-off fuel spray cone. The first injection valve 28 injects a wide-spread spray cone 34 (FIG. 5) with a large cone angle and the second injection valve 29 clearly sprays a spray cone 35 (FIG. 4) which is only slightly fanned out smaller cone angle. In this case, the spray cone 35 of the second injection valve 29 has a much greater penetration, so it can penetrate much deeper into the combustion chamber 15 with open inlet valve 17 as the spray cone 34 of the first injection valve 28 with much smaller penetration. The second injection valve 29 is also designed in comparison to the first injection valve 28 for a significantly larger fuel flow and can, for. B at least 70% of the full load amount. In the illustrated embodiment, the Einstecköffhung 33 for the first injection valve 28 has a slightly greater distance from the inlet 18, as the Einstecköffhung 37 for the second injection valve 29 so that the Abspritzöffhung the first injector 28 is slightly further away from the inlet valve 17 as the Abspritzöffhung the second Injector 29. An equal spacing arrangement of the two Einstecköffhungen 33, 37 from the inlet 18 is also possible.
In einem in Fig. 6 bis 8 illustrierten weiteren Ausführungsbeispiel des Verbrennungszylinders 12 einer Brennkraftmaschine gemäß Fig. 1 ist der Brennraum 15 mit Zylinderkopf 13 insoweit modifiziert, als zwei Einlasse 18, 18' vorhanden sind, die von jeweils einem Einlassventil 17 bzw. 17' verschließbar sind. Zu dem ersten Einlass 18 ist ein erster Ansaugkanal 21 für Verbrennungsluft geführt (Fig. 7), und zu dem zweiten Einlass 18' ist ein zweiter Ansaugkanal 21 ' für Verbrennungsluft geführt (Fig. 8). Beide Ansaugkanäle 21, 21 ' bestehen jeweils aus einem im Zylinderkopf 13 ausgeformten Einlasskanal 22 bzw. 22' und einem an den Einlasskanal 22 bzw. 22' angesetzten Saugrohr 23 bzw. 23'. Die Kraftstoffversorgung des Brennraums 15 erfolgt in der gleichen Weise wie vorstehend in Verbindung mit Fig. 1 beschrieben worden ist. Das erste Einspritzventil 28 ist nahe dem Einlassventil 17 in eine in dem ersten Ansaugkanal 21, hier wiederum im Saugrohr 23, vorgehaltene Einstecköffhung 33 in gleicher Weise eingesetzt, um Kraftstoff in den ersten Ansaugkanal 21 einzuspritzen. Das zweite Einspritzventil 29 ist nahe dem zweiten Einlassventil 17' in eine in dem zweiten Ansaugkanal 21', hier wiederum im Saugrohr 23', vorgehaltene Einstecköffhung 37 in gleicher Weise eingesetzt, um Kraftstoff in den zweiten Ansaugkanal 21 ' einzuspritzen. Beide Einspritzventile 28, 29 sind wie vorstehend beschrieben ausgebildet und wiederum so ausgerichtet, dass ihre Spraykegel 34, 35 auf das jeweils zugeordnete Einlassventil 17 bzw. 17' gerichtet ist. Wie aus Fig. 6 bis 8 ersichtlich ist, ist der Öffhungsquerschnitt der beiden Einlasse 18, 18' im Brennraum 15 des Verbrennungszylinders 11 unterschiedlich groß. Das erste Einspritzventil 28 ist dem zum querschnittskleineren ersten Einlass 18 führenden ersten Ansaugkanal 21 zugeordnet, während das zweite Einspritzventil 29 in den zum querschnittsgrößeren zweiten Einlass 18' führenden zweiten Ansaugkanal 21 ' einspritzt. Die Querschnitte der beiden Ansaugkanäle 21, 21 ', genauer gesagt die Querschnitte der Einlasskanäle 22, 22' im Zylinderkopf 13, können dabei gleich groß sein, können aber - wie dies in Fig. 6 bis 8 dargestellt ist - ebenfalls unterschiedlich groß sein, wobei der erste Ansaugkanal 21, in den das erste Einspritzventil 28 einspritzt, den kleineren Durchmesser aufweist.In a further embodiment of the combustion cylinder 12 of an internal combustion engine according to FIG. 1 illustrated in FIGS. 6 to 8, the combustion chamber 15 with cylinder head 13 is modified to the extent that two inlets 18, 18 'are present, each of which is provided by an inlet valve 17 or 17'. are closable. To the first inlet 18, a first combustion air intake duct 21 is guided (FIG. 7), and to the second inlet 18 ', a second combustion air intake duct 21' is guided (FIG. 8). Both intake ports 21, 21 'each consist of an intake port 22, 22' formed in the cylinder head 13 and an intake pipe 23, 23 'attached to the intake port 22, 22', respectively. The fuel supply of the combustion chamber 15 takes place in the same manner as described above in connection with FIG. 1. The first injection valve 28 is inserted in the same manner near the inlet valve 17 into an insertion opening 33 held in the first intake passage 21, again here in the intake pipe 23, in order to inject fuel into the first intake passage 21. The second injection valve 29 is inserted in the same manner near the second inlet valve 17 'in a in the second intake passage 21', here again in the intake pipe 23 'held insertion opening 37 to inject fuel into the second intake passage 21'. Both injectors 28, 29 are formed as described above and in turn aligned so that their spray cone 34, 35 is directed to the respectively associated inlet valve 17 and 17 '. As can be seen from FIGS. 6 to 8, the opening cross-section of the two inlets 18, 18 'in the combustion chamber 15 of the combustion cylinder 11 varies in size. The first injection valve 28 is assigned to the first intake passage 21 leading to the smaller-diameter first intake 18, while the second injection valve 29 is injected into the second intake passage 21 'leading to the larger-cross-sectional second intake 18'. The cross sections of the two intake passages 21, 21 ', more precisely the cross sections of the intake passages 22, 22 'in the cylinder head 13, can be the same size, but - as shown in Fig. 6 to 8 - also be different sizes, wherein the first intake passage 21, in which injects the first injection valve 28, the smaller diameter having.
In einer weiteren Modifikation des Ausführungsbeispiels gemäß Fig. 6 bis 8 können die beiden Einlassventile 17, 17' einen unterschiedlich großen Ventilhub aufweisen. Die Zuordnung der beiden Einspritzventile 28, 29 zu den Einlassventilen 17, 17' ist dann so getroffen, dass das erste Einspritzventil 28 dem Einlassventil 17 mit dem kleineren Ventilhub und das zweite Einspritzventil 29 dem Einlassventil 17' mit dem größeren Ventilhub zugeordnet ist.In a further modification of the embodiment according to FIGS. 6 to 8, the two inlet valves 17, 17 'may have a different valve lift. The assignment of the two injection valves 28, 29 to the intake valves 17, 17 'is then made such that the first injection valve 28 is associated with the intake valve 17 with the smaller valve lift and the second injection valve 29 with the intake valve 17' with the larger valve lift.
In einer weiteren konstruktiven Ausführung ist eines der Einlassventile 17, 17' mit einer Ventilmaskierung versehen und das erste Einspritzventil 28 spritzt in den Ansaugkanal ein, der zu dem Einlassventil mit Ventilmaskierung führt.In another constructive embodiment, one of the inlet valves 17, 17 'is provided with a valve mask and the first injection valve 28 injects into the intake passage leading to the intake valve with valve masking.
Ebenso wie dies in dem Ausführungsbeispiel gemäß Fig. 3 bis 5 illustriert ist, können auch bei dem Ausführungsbeispiel in Fig. 6 bis 8 die beiden Einspritzventile 28, 29 mit unterschiedlichem Abstand zu dem jeweils zugeordneten Einlassventil 17 bzw. 17' im Ansaugkanal 21 bzw. 21 ' angeordnet sein. Bevorzugt hat dabei das erste Einspritzventil 28 einen etwas größeren Abstand vom ersten Einlassventil 17 als das zweite Einspitzventil 29 vom zweiten Einlassventil 17'.As is illustrated in the exemplary embodiment according to FIGS. 3 to 5, the two injection valves 28, 29 at different distances from the respective associated inlet valve 17 or 17 'in the intake channel 21 or in the exemplary embodiment in FIGS. 21 'may be arranged. Preferably, the first injection valve 28 has a slightly greater distance from the first inlet valve 17 than the second injection valve 29 from the second inlet valve 17 '.
Bei allen beschriebenen Ausführungsbeispielen werden die beiden Einspritzventile 28, 29 pro Verbrennungszylinder 11 von der elektronischen Steuereinheit 32 abhängig von den Betriebspunkten der Brennkraftmaschine unterschiedlich angesteuert. Hierzu ist in der Steuereinheit 32 ein Diagramm abgespeichert, wie es in Fig. 2 schematisiert dargestellt ist. Zu einem bestimmten Betriebspunkt der Brennkraftmaschine, der durch die Drehzahl n und die von der Brennkraftmaschine abgeforderte Last L festgelegt ist, wird das eine oder andere der beiden Einspritzventile 28, 29 oder werden beide Einspritzventile 28, 29 angesteuert. Der mit 40 gekennzeichnete, schraffierte Bereich im Diagramm weist den Bereich kleiner Teillast aus, in dem nur das erste Einspritzventil 28 zur Kraftstoffeinbringung in den Brennraum 15 herangezogen wird. Der mit 41 gekennzeichnete, kreuzschraffierte Bereich dient dem Scavenging, in dem nur das zweite Einspritzventil 29 mit kleinem Spraykegel 35 und großer Penetration angesteuert wird, das keinen nennenswerten Wandfilm vor dem Einlass 18 des Brennraums 15 erzeugt. In dem verbleibenden, mit 42 gekennzeichneten Bereich werden beide Einspritzventile 28, 29 zur Kraftstoffeinspritzung angesteuert. Zur Verbesserang der Gemischaufbereitung und Tramblebewegung in den verschiedenen Betriebspunkten weisen die beiden Einlassventile 17, 17' pro Brennraum 15 zeitlich versetzte Öffnungsphasen auf. Die Einspritzventile 28, 29 sind dann den Einlassventilen 17, 17' in der Weise zugeordnet, dass das erste Einlassventil 28 in dem zu den früher öffnenden Einlassventil 17 führenden Ansaugkanal 21 und das zweite Einspritzventil 29 in dem zu dem später öffnenden Einlassventil 17' angeordnet ist. In einem bestimmten Betriebsmodus der Brennkraftmaschine, kann dann das erste Einspritzventil 17 von der Steuerelektronik 32 so angesteuert werden, dass es Kraftstoff erst zu einem Zeitpunkt abspritzt, zu dem das zweite Einlassventil 17' öffent, also eine Überschneidung von geöffnetem Einlass 13, 13' und Auslaß 20 des Brennraums 15 sicher ausgeschlossen ist. In all described embodiments, the two injection valves 28, 29 are controlled differently per combustion cylinder 11 by the electronic control unit 32 as a function of the operating points of the internal combustion engine. For this purpose, a diagram is stored in the control unit 32, as shown schematically in FIG. At a specific operating point of the internal combustion engine, which is determined by the rotational speed n and the load L requested by the internal combustion engine, one or the other of the two injection valves 28, 29 or both injection valves 28, 29 are actuated. The hatched area marked 40 in the diagram shows the range of small partial load, in which only the first injection valve 28 is used for fuel introduction into the combustion chamber 15. The cross-hatched area marked 41 serves for scavenging, in which only the second injection valve 29 with a small spray cone 35 and high penetration is activated, which does not generate any appreciable wall film in front of the inlet 18 of the combustion chamber 15. In the remaining region marked 42, both injection valves 28, 29 are activated for fuel injection. To improve the mixture preparation and tramble movement in the various operating points, the two intake valves 17, 17 'per combustion chamber 15 on time staggered opening phases. The injectors 28, 29 are then associated with the intake valves 17, 17 'in such a manner that the first intake valve 28 is disposed in the intake passage 21 leading to the earlier-opening intake valve 17 and the second injection valve 29 is disposed in the later-opening intake valve 17' , In a certain operating mode of the internal combustion engine, then the first injection valve 17 can be controlled by the control electronics 32 so that it sprays fuel only at a time to which the second inlet valve 17 'public, so an overlap of the open inlet 13, 13' and Outlet 20 of the combustion chamber 15 is safely excluded.
