Definitions
- the invention relates to a device for injecting a pressurized fuel fluid into a combustion chamber with a pressure generator, at least one injector with injection opening and a fuel line between the pressure generator and the injector according to the preamble of claim 1.
- Such devices are used, for example, in internal combustion engines in which clocked under high pressure fuel and metered into the combustion chamber of individual cylinders is injected. Particularly in this application, very short switching times of the injectors and an accurate volume metering of the fuel are advantageous.
- Damping elements or filters which are formed, inter alia, as a sintered material, metal strips, fibers, tube bundles or fabric.
- Object of the present invention is therefore to provide a device according to the preamble of claim 1 with an improved damping.
- a device is characterized in that a length of the damping element oriented in the flow direction of the fuel fluid is substantially between 1 and 100 millimeters.
- a significantly improved compared to the prior art damping is achieved in that a ratio of a cross-sectional diameter of the cross-sectional area and / or a pore diameter of the pores to aligned in the direction of flow of the fuel fluid length of the damping element is substantially between 2 and 5 microns per millimeter.
- the aligned in the flow direction of the fuel fluid length of the damping element is substantially between 2 and 50 millimeters in size.
- the latter requirement is primarily for vehicle applications, especially for automotive applications of high relevance.
- the construction volume of the device or damping unit or injector according to the invention is to be realized as small as possible.
- comparatively small dampers can be realized with fairly good damping, so that they can be accommodated in modern vehicles with little space available.
- a cross-sectional diameter of the cross-sectional area and / or a pore diameter of the pores is substantially between 5 and 200 microns in size, preferably substantially between 10 and 100 microns in size.
- a cross-sectional diameter of the cross-sectional area and / or the pore diameter of the pores is substantially 10 micrometers and the length of the damping element aligned in the flow direction of the fuel fluid is substantially 2 millimeters.
- a cross-sectional diameter of the cross-sectional area and / or a pore diameter of the pores is substantially 100 micrometers and the length of the damping element aligned in the flow direction of the fuel fluid is substantially 50 millimeters.
- the fuel flow through the Damping element can be subdivided into a plurality of partial flows, wherein the partial flows are at least partially reunited in the flow direction behind the damping element.
- an increased energy dissipation is realized in the damping element, which can be based on different effects.
- friction and throttle effects play a role.
- the contact area and the contact time of the fuel fluid with the wall regions of the damping element and thus also the friction are significantly increased by the inventive division of the total flow of the fuel fluid.
- Due to the increased energy dissipation can be a pulsation, which is caused for example by the switching of an injector, effectively dampen.
- improved metering of the fuel is possible both in terms of timing and in terms of the amount to be metered.
- At least two such damping elements are provided, with a flow zone in between, in which the partial flows are at least partially united.
- the damping effect can be positively influenced.
- the partial flows are completely reunited behind one and / or between two damping elements.
- the partial flows are formed completely separated from each other within the damping element.
- damping element In principle, however, the use of a damping element would be possible in which the partial flows within the damping element are at least partially in communication with each other. By the interaction of the partial flows with each other, the damping element can then be designed in its entirety with regard to the damping effect to be achieved, since the interaction of the partial flows is difficult to detect with respect to their damping effect.
- the partial flows according to the invention are formed by tubular flow channels.
- Such tubular flow channels offer by defined boundary conditions such as cross-section, flow length, wall friction, etc. the ability to design the desired damping of a partial flow defined.
- a plurality of tubular flow channels can also be formed structurally easier.
- a damping element may include a bundle of elongated elements formed as a hollow body.
- Such hollow bodies can, for example, by capillaries of different materials, For example, glass capillaries or hollow fibers, but also be formed by small metal tubes or the like.
- a damping effect can be achieved in particular by wall friction.
- a bunch of solid bodies such as rods, in particular round rods made of different materials.
- the outer contour of such rods need not necessarily be round, they can also be otherwise, for example, polygonal design.
- a defined channel for a partial flow can also be generated by such a measure.
- phases or beads in individual bodies with a surface-covering cross-section for example, triangular, quadrangular, hexagonal, etc., or even rounded edges of such bodies when forming a bundle can yield defined flow channels in the longitudinal direction.
- a wound, in particular not flat or corrugated and / or beads and troughs or phases or the like having band element can be provided.
- This can be arranged as a cylindrical damping element in corresponding lines or pipes.
- this may be formed in the unwound form in the manner of corrugated cardboard.
- a damping element is realized by a body with longitudinal bores, which form flow channels for partial flows.
- an attenuation effect results from the partial flows according to the invention if the cross-sectional diameter of the cross-sectional area and / or a pore diameter of the pores or the average cross section of the partial flows is less than 200 ⁇ m, for example 80 ⁇ m, preferably less than 40 ⁇ m. It has been found that particularly with such small flow cross-sections, which are in the region of capillaries, a particularly good pulsation damping is possible.
- the damping in particular in the frequency range of the natural frequencies caused thereby, can be further improved.
- an arrangement of a damping element according to the invention in the vicinity of an injector or even in the injector makes sense, in order to introduce the damping effect in the immediate vicinity of the place of origin of the pulsation.
- it is advantageous to construct the damping element at an upstream position with respect to the flow direction of the fuel fluid since in the area of the injectors there is often an extreme lack of space, difficult accessibility and / or other unfavorable conditions.
- one or more damping elements can be arranged in an unbranched region of the fuel line behind the pressure generator to be ordered.
- This arrangement has the advantage that, with the same damping elements, the pressure pulsations caused by all the injectors can be damped according to the invention.
- the fuel line in this area is generally more accessible and usually has a larger cross section in this area. Accordingly, one or more damping elements can be accommodated more easily in this area of the fuel line.
- a damping unit can be formed from one or more damping elements. This can be used in an advantageous manner as a whole, for example via end connection elements, such as connecting flanges or the like in the fuel line. But such a damping unit can also be designed as an insert or as a separately manageable unit, which is / can be mounted in an advantageous manner in the fuel line or can be inserted.
- damping units is also advantageous in the region of branch lines of the fuel supply, wherein in the region of the branch lines due to the external conditions and the dimensions of the installation is more difficult to implement and also the damping acts directly on all injectors.
- a damping unit can also be integrated into this main line, wherein in turn a damping unit is conceivable that via end-side connection elements in the fuel line introduced or inserted as a slot in the main line.
- the damping unit can also be formed so that between two or more branch lines in the main line one or more damping elements and / or assemblies or bays are arranged so that it is ensured that between two or a plurality of injectors in each case a damping element is arranged and a direct pulse transmission between injectors is suppressed without damping element.
- a damping unit with a plurality of damping elements is preferably formed so that a flow zone results between the individual damping elements, in which the partial flows are at least partially reunited.
- At least three damping elements are provided, wherein the third damping element has at least a third, to the first and / or second different material and / or a third, the first and / or the second different structure. It has been shown that with three damping elements according to the invention, almost the entire pressure fluctuation can be damped, without appreciable or without relevant pressure loss behind the dampers according to the invention or the damping unit.
- superposition effects or interferences can advantageously be combined with friction effects, turbulences or with dissipation or the like, or complementarily or even be mutually reinforcing used.
- This advantageous effect or effects are enhanced or optimized in that according to the invention between the two damping elements in an advantageous manner, a boundary zone or a transition region, in particular with an effective or effective interface and / or reflection surface is generated, the / a generated to the damping effects of the two damping elements, further or third damping effect.
- This can be realized, for example, in that two adjacent damping elements each have a contact or contact surface. This means that in this variant of the invention, these two damping elements directly abutting or touching each other or are formed standing in contact with each other.
- a gap and / or the flow zone between two spaced damping elements is arranged in a particular embodiment of the invention, wherein the gap or the volume of the flow zone substantially between 1 and 10 cubic centimeters is. It has been found that such a volume between two damping elements, which is in particular substantially 1 cubic centimeter in size, generates a special damping effect.
- standing waves and / or reflections and / or calmer flow conditions may advantageously form in this intermediate space.
- the combination of the aforementioned variants is e.g. formed by curved perforated sheets, metal mesh or the like, for example, the circumference or centrally touch, but on each other surfaces (slightly) spaced and herein include a gap or cavity.
- At least one spacer element is provided for defining the distance and / or the volume of the intermediate space between the two damping elements.

- FIG. 8a an ordered layering of eg perforated plates 48 or fabrics 47 is shown.
- the openings 28 or pores 28 are arranged substantially one above the other or in such a way that (almost rectilinear) Channels are generated.
- FIG. 8a an ordered layering of eg perforated plates 48 or fabrics 47 is shown.
- the openings 28 or pores 28 are arranged substantially one above the other or in such a way that (almost rectilinear) Channels are generated.
- the layers or layers or damping layers are arranged offset (transversely) in such a way that the fuel fluid does not have to flow through in a straight line but rather through a very branched pore system through the damping element or the stack 20. Accordingly, the effective channel path increases in comparison to the straight-line flow according to FIG. 8a ,
- damping elements can be used for example in a so-called common rail system.
- the fuel is fed via the pressure generator through the supply line 16 into the main line 2 and can propagate there in both axial directions of the main line 2.
- the fuel flows through a respective damping element 17, 18, wherein the energy dissipation occurs and pulsations are damped.
- branch off branch lines 3, 4, 5, 6, which serve to supply fuel fluid to the individual injectors or cylinders of an internal combustion engine.
- the damping elements 7, 8, 9, 10 in these branch lines 3, 4, 5, 6 are in turn stacked according to the invention and in particular stacked to cause the energy dissipation, which acts to damp pulsations.
- Damping elements are housed both in the main line and in the branch lines. Since the fuel supply is to be regarded as an overall system, depending on the application, a sufficient damping can already be achieved with arrangements in which damping elements are arranged only in the main line or only in the branch lines.
- FIG. 2 shows a variant in which a damping unit 21 is inserted as a slot in a fuel line 22, comprising two damping elements 23, 24, between which a gap 25 is formed as a flow zone without a perforated plate and / or a braid / fabric.
- the stack 19, 20 indicated by a plurality of perforated plates and / or braid / fabric layers.
- the damping elements 23, 24 are mounted in a support tube 26, so that the damping unit 21 can be handled as a complete unit.
- a damping unit according to FIG. 2 For example, instead of the damping elements in FIG. 1 be used.
- the combination of two damping elements 23, 24 with the intermediate space 25 has already shown an improved damping effect compared to the pure accumulation of the damping effect of the individual damping elements 23, 24.
- the execution according to FIG. 2 can be further expanded to the effect that further damping elements and other spaces are combined in one unit.
- FIG. 3 shows a section of a Lohblech 27 with a circular cross section, wherein numerous holes 28 are provided. These holes 28 can be drilled, stamped, lasered or made comparable. As a stack 20 (see, eg Fig. 4 ) is advantageous if the holes 28 are at least partially offset in the transverse direction to the perforated plate 27 and to the flow direction of the fluid or overlap only partially.
- FIG. 4 shows a principle according to the embodiment according to FIG. 2 corresponding variant of a damping element 29 with a multilayer stack 20.
- the damping element 29 is directly usable in an injector.
- a large central bore 30, which can be penetrated by a needle of a needle valve of an injector.
- FIG. 5 shows a schematic representation of such an injector 31.
- the injector 31 shows a nozzle housing 32 with a nozzle opening 33.
- a fuel line 34 into which a damping element 29 according to FIG. 4 is used.
- the damping element 29 is penetrated by a nozzle needle 35 which can seal with its tip 36 against a valve seat 37 and the Nozzle opening 33 closes or opens.
- the injector can control the injection process by axial movement of the nozzle needle 35 both in terms of the time course and thereby also with regard to the injected fuel volume.
- the fuel flow through the damping element 29 experiences an energy dissipation.
- the central bore 30 of the annular damping element 29 is thereby closed by the nozzle needle 35 so that only the path through stack 20 remains for the fuel fluid.
- the damping effect according to the invention is generated directly at the point of origin of the pulsation in the vicinity of the nozzle opening 33.
- annular damping elements 29 may in multiple versions with gaps corresponding to the gap 25 according to the embodiment according to FIG. 3 can be used to further increase the damping effect.
- FIG. 6 shows a further embodiment of a damping element 17, 18. It comprises a base body in which many small longitudinal bores 28 are mounted. The longitudinal bores 28 are formed continuously. In each longitudinal bore 28 may therefore form a partial flow, which contributes to the invention damping.
- damping elements for example, with a damping element 17 according to FIG. 2 partly replaced or combined used.
- FIG. 7 shows a schematic representation of a common rail system 38 with a commonly referred to as "common rail" main line 39, from the two branch lines 40, 41 depart in the illustrated case.
- the branch lines 40, 41 lead to injectors 42, 43.
- the injector 42 is in operation, as indicated by dashed lines, which are intended to represent sprays of injected fuel.
- Damping units 45, 46 according to the invention are arranged upstream of the injectors 42, 43.
- the damping units can be used as simple, preferably stacked or multi-layer damping elements, such as the damping element according to FIG. 4 or 6 or 8 or as a multi-stage, in particular two-stage damping unit according to the damping unit 21 according to the embodiment according to FIG. 2 be educated.
- the arrangement of the damping units 45, 46 leads as well as an integration of a damping element in the injector, as in the embodiment according to FIG. 7 is provided with the damping element 29, to the fact that pulsations that are triggered by an injector, can be largely decoupled from the overall system.
- the injector 42 is active, ie it triggers corresponding pulsations, which are, however, largely attenuated in the damping unit 45, so that the total system located upstream of the damping unit 45 in the flow direction is largely uncoupled from the pulsations of the injector 42.
- This means that in the temporal sequence of the injector 43 can be operated without being affected by previously caused by the injector 42 pulsations.
- a more accurate metering of fuel in particular with regard to the injection pressure and the metered amount is possible.
- damping elements and damping arrangements possible.
- a construction according to FIG. 3 can also be flexible. Fibers are achieved, both variants with fibers of solid material and hollow fibers are conceivable. These are in FIG. 9 further variants shown.
- FIG. 9 Variants shown for example, have individual openings 28 or capillary 28 or channels 28, which can also be joined together to capillary bundles.
- the capillary is produced by mechanical processing (for example drilling, erosion, lasers), by forming (for example, large tubes are rolled and drawn until they reach the desired diameter), are formed in the original way (for example by casting, injection molding) or built ( eg by layers of several perforated plates / sheets).
- the individual capillaries 28 can be connected to one another to form a bundle by being welded or glued to the contact surfaces ( FIG. 9 a) or with a fuel-resistant material 99 (Ex: PPE, Lauramid) are cast ( FIG. 9 b) ,
- a carrier sleeve 12 or tube 12 (FIG. FIG. 9c) in which the individual capillary 28 or tubes 28 are introduced, can also be used.
- the volume can be adjusted in special cases by a spacer sleeve.
- a bundle of solid tubes or wire 98 or the like (US Pat. FIG. 9 d) be used.
- holes 28 can be etched in plates 27 to produce perforated plates, which then stacked on each other in an advantageous manner, possibly again give a capillary bundle.
- long channels / lines can be etched along the surface of a plate. If you place two of these plates with the etched side together, you will also get capillaries. Thus, various combinations of the production methods with one another are also conceivable for the production of capillaries.
- capillaries can be generated by nanotubes and microstructures.
- the advantageous diameter of a pore or capillary is 10 .mu.m-40 .mu.m in order to advantageously avoid contamination or clogging and to achieve good damping.
- both similar, preferably (different) stacked as well as various damping elements, such as fabric combined with grid and / or tube bundles or perforated plates, are combined in one device.
- FIG. 10 something illustrated.
- FIG. 10a shows a Durckverlauf without damping elements and FIG. 10b with damping.
- FIG. 10a The fast closing of the injector after the injection process generates pressure pulsations ( FIG. 10a ) These are transmitted through the fluid in the rail or pipe. If several injectors are connected to the same line or rail, they also experience the pressure pulsations from the closing injector. The generated pressure pulsations behave similarly to a sinusoidal oscillation. Depending on the time interval, a wide variety of pressures are thus present in front of the injector injector, which makes precise, reproducible minimum quantity injection impossible in order to reduce pollutant emissions ( FIG. 11 ).
- An advantageous damping element preferably between the pressure generator and the injection opening of an injector is provided according to a variant of the invention in an advantageous manner, wherein the fuel flow is divided by the damping element, esp.
- the damping element esp.
- the tissue pores and / or holes of the perforated plates in a plurality of part streams and wherein in the flow direction behind the damping element, the partial flows at least partially are reunited.
- an increased energy dissipation is realized in the damping element, which can be based on different effects.
- friction and throttle effects play a role.
- the contact area and the contact time of the fuel fluid with the wall regions of the damping element and thus also the friction are significantly increased by the inventive division of the total flow of the fuel fluid.
- a damping element or a damping unit which / divides the fuel into a plurality of partial flows and reunited after the damping element and / or at least two mutually spaced damping elements are provided, wherein there is a flow zone in which the partial flows reunite.
- damping units with combinations of ordered wire mesh and / or bulk material and / or wire mesh, in this case, the number of any layer / layer can be varied as desired.
