Definitions
- the invention relates to a mounting system for a resonant needle liquid injection device intended in particular for a heat engine.
- Document FR 2 889 257 discloses an injection device whose opening is obtained by resonating a needle.
- Such a device comprises a tubular body, an injector nose extending the tubular body.
- a needle is lodged in the nose extending longitudinally in the form of a bar.
- One end of the needle has a valve head on a seat carried by the nose.
- the device also comprises an actuator capable of causing movement of the head to open the valve by axially resonating the needle with axial pulses at a determined nominal frequency.
- the nominal frequency is typically between 15 and 30 kHz, but may be higher.
- the head of the needle is supported on the seat before moving away from it leaving an opening for the fuel between them.
- the nose is thus subjected to axial impulses which also tend to put it in resonance.
- the resonance of the nose favors that of the needle by increasing the amplitude of the opening of the injection device.
- this condition results in a large nose length compared to the conventional thickness of a cylinder wall. If the base of the nose, opposite the seat, serves as a support of the device against the breech, the nose will protrude into the combustion chamber in which the fuel must be injected. This is however not compatible with the constraints of space in the combustion chamber and with the thermal stresses that can support the device.
- the invention therefore aims to provide a system for mounting a resonant needle device on a cylinder head to promote the effectiveness of the device.
- the invention relates to a mounting system of a fuel injection device on an engine cylinder head, the device comprising a tubular body, an injector nose extending the tubular body, a needle extending coaxially to the nose in the form of a bar and one end of which comprises a valve head on a seat carried by the injector nose, an actuator being able to cause movement of the head to open the valve, needle being adapted to enter axial resonance when subjected by the actuator to axial pulses at a nominal frequency determined, the system comprising the injection device, characterized in that it comprises a spacer intended to bear on one hand on a face of the cylinder head, and bearing on the other hand on a front face of the tubular body at the connection with the nose.
- the use of a spacer makes it possible to adjust the position of the nose of the device relative to the combustion chamber while being free to choose the length of the nose, whatever the thickness of the wall of the cylinder head. It is therefore possible to respect the positional constraints of the injection device while maintaining the optimum efficiency of the device by the choice of the length of the nose.
- the spacer has for example the shape of a ring surrounding the base of the nose.
- the system further comprises a flange for attachment to the cylinder head and pressing the tubular body on one spacer by pressing on a clamping shoulder.
- the device is thus permanently held in place on the spacer by the flange.
- the spacer and the portion of the tubular body between the clamping shoulder and the front face have lengths such that the propagation time of an acoustic wave in the portion of the tubular body between the shoulder and the front face, added to the propagation time in the spacer is a multiple of half a period of the nominal frequency.
- a phenomenon oscillatory can be established between the flange and the cylinder head, through the injection device and the spacer. This oscillatory phenomenon is initiated by the vibrations coming from the nose and arriving at the level of the front face. Because of their mass, the flange and the cylinder head act as displacement nodes for this oscillatory phenomenon.
- the spacer and the portion of the tubular body between the clamping shoulder and the front face resonate and allow oscillations at the nominal frequency at the front face, which improves the efficiency of the injection device.
- the spacer comprises at least one inner groove and at least one outer groove. It is found that with such a spacer, the propagation time of a wave is increased for the same geometric length, compared to a spacer without a groove. In another way, we obtain the same propagation time with a reduced geometric length. It is thus possible to modify the geometrical length of the spacer while maintaining a determined propagation time. It is for example possible to determine a position of the nose in the combustion chamber while respecting the characteristics of propagation time, and whatever the thickness of the cylinder wall.
- the grooves of one spacer are distributed axially alternately inside and outside.
- some kinds of baffles seen in longitudinal section of the spacer, are drawn.
- the nominal frequency is for example in a range extending from 10 to 30 kHz.
- FIG. 1 is a sectional view of a mounting system according to a first embodiment of the invention
- FIG. 2 is a view similar to Figure 1 of a mounting system according to a second embodiment of the invention.
- FIG. 1 A first embodiment of the liquid injection device 1 according to the invention is shown in FIG. 1. It comprises a tubular body 11 extending along a longitudinal axis A and extended by a nose 13.
- the nose 13a a tubular shape of constant section and in which a needle 12 is slidably mounted.
- the needle 12 has at one end a head 120 forming a valve on a seat 130 of the nose 13.
- a feed conduit 111 for channeling the liquid such as fuel extends into the device 1 from an inlet 112 and around the needle 12 to the flapper.
- the device 1 comprises a spring 14 which maintains the head 120 of the needle 12 against the seat 130 so as to close the valve and normally prevent liquid from escaping.
- the device 1 further comprises an actuator 10 piezoelectric material capable of causing a displacement of the head 120 of the needle 12 to open the valve.
- the actuator 10 forms with the needle 12 a movable assembly slidably mounted in the tubular body 11.
- the device 1 is mounted on a cylinder head 2 delimiting a combustion chamber C.
- the wall of the cylinder head 2 is pierced by a through hole 20 in which the nose 13 of the device is introduced.
- the device is placed so that the nose 13 protrudes into the combustion chamber C of one or two millimeters, for example.
- the yoke 2 has a yoke face 21 around the outlet of the through hole 20 opposite the combustion chamber C.
- a spacer 3 of tubular shape is interposed between a front face 113 of the tubular body 11 and the breech face 2 and bears on these two faces 21, 113.
- the tubular body 11 has on its outer surface a clamping shoulder 114.
- a flange 4 bears on the one hand on said clamping shoulder 114 and on a boss 22 of the yoke 2.
- a screw 5 plates the flange 4 on these two supports 22, 114.
- the needle 12 When it is desired to perform a fuel injection, it is pressurized, in particular in the space between the nose 13 and the needle 12.
- the spring 14 holds the head 120 in position. pressing on the seat 130 and closes the valve.
- the piezoelectric actuator 10 is supplied with a current at the nominal frequency, for example 30 kHz, which causes the transmission of compression or relaxation waves in the axial direction.
- the needle 12 receives these pulses in the axial direction and is resonated by extending and retracting.
- the needle 12 elongates, the head 120 leaves its support on the seat 130 and passes fuel which is thus injected into the combustion chamber C.
- the needle 12 retracts, the head 120 bears on the seat 130.
- Successive docking of the head 120 on the seat 130 generates waves also transmitted to the nose 13 in the axial direction.
- the length of the nose 13 is chosen in principle so that the propagation time of an acoustic wave in the nose is a multiple of a half-period of the nominal frequency, so that during the resonance, the base nose 13 at the front face 113 is a displacement node. However oscillations can still occur at the front face 113. These oscillations are then transmitted in the portion of the tubular body 11 between the front face 113 and the clamping shoulder 114 and in the spacer 3.
- the spacer 3 ' has three circular outer grooves 31 formed on the outer cylindrical surface 30 of the spacer 3'. It also comprises three circular inner grooves 32 made on the cylindrical surface Inside 33. Viewed in a longitudinal section of the wall of the spacer 3 ', the outer grooves 31 and the inner grooves 32 are staggered. The depth of the grooves 31, 32 exceeds half the thickness of the wall of the spacer 3 '. It can be seen that the propagation time of an acoustic wave between the end faces of such a spacer 3 'is practically twice that for a similar spacer of the same geometric length but without grooves.
