  In the conventional water-cooled fuel injection valve provided in Patent Document 1 as shown in FIG. 4, an annular water chamber 05 is formed around the high temperature portion near the tip of the nozzle tip 01. Then, the cooling water inlet hole 06 and the cooling water outlet hole 07 that are penetrated in the axial direction from the upper end of the main body 011 of the nozzle tip 01 are configured to communicate with the water chamber 05. Therefore, in order to form the water chamber 05 and the two cooling water passage holes 06 and 07, the outer diameter of the nozzle tip 01 increases over the entire length.

  However, in the diesel engine in which the water-cooled fuel injection valve is arranged at the center of the cylinder, an intake valve, an exhaust valve, a water injection valve and the like are arranged around the fuel injection valve. Therefore, when the outer diameter of the nozzle tip 01 increases over the entire length and the outer diameter of the fuel injection valve increases as in the prior art, the space around the fuel injection valve becomes narrower and the intake valve In addition, a situation in which the required arrangement of devices and members such as exhaust valves and water injection valves becomes difficult to occur.

  In view of the problems of the prior art, the present invention provides a water-cooled fuel injection valve capable of improving the nozzle tip cooling effect without increasing the outer diameter of the fuel injection valve and with a relatively simple structure. The purpose is to provide.

The present invention achieves such an object. In the first invention , a cooling chamber is formed in a nozzle tip that is reciprocally fitted to a needle valve and fixed to a cylinder cover, and cooling water is provided in the cooling chamber. In the water-cooled fuel injection valve configured to cool the nozzle tip and its peripheral members, the lower half side of the nozzle tip has a cylindrical shape smaller in diameter than the large-diameter portion on the upper half side of the nozzle tip. A cooling groove made of two spirals rotating in opposite directions and extending from the upper side of the nozzle tip to the tip side is formed on the outer periphery of the small-diameter cylindrical portion. Two cooling water inlet passages are perforated in the axial direction inside the large-diameter portion on the side, and the outer periphery of the cooling groove is fluid-tightly covered with a cylindrical nozzle cap, and further, on the tip end side of the nozzle tip At the end of the cylinder cover Of connecting the connecting cooling water discharge hole is passed through the cooling chamber, the cooling water discharge hole is connected to the cooling chamber via the annular groove provided in the cylinder cover that the outlet end of the cooling channels are opened, the The cooling water introduced into the cooling water inlet passage is configured to flow through the spiral cooling groove toward the tip of the nozzle tip and then to the cooling chamber in the cylinder cover through the cooling water discharge hole. Further, both inlet sides of the two cooling grooves are respectively connected to the two cooling water inlet passages drilled in the upper part of the nozzle chip, and both outlet sides of the cooling grooves are connected to the annular groove. It is connected to the cooling water discharge hole via

Further, in the second aspect of the invention, a cooling chamber is formed in a nozzle tip that is reciprocally fitted to a needle valve and fixed to a cylinder cover, and cooling water is supplied to the cooling chamber so that the nozzle tip and its surroundings are provided. In a water-cooled fuel injection valve configured to cool a member,
The lower half side of the nozzle tip is a cylindrical portion having a smaller diameter than the large diameter portion on the upper half side of the nozzle tip, and extends from the upper side of the nozzle tip to the tip side on the outer periphery of the small diameter cylindrical portion. Two cooling grooves having a spiral shape swirling in the direction are formed, while two cooling water inlet passages are drilled in the axial direction inside the large-diameter portion on the upper half side of the nozzle tip and the cooling Cover the outer periphery of the groove fluidly with a cylindrical nozzle cap,
Furthermore, with respectively connecting upper end portions of the cooling grooves of two rows of the spiral to the cooling water inlet passage provided in the upper portion of the nozzle tip, the outlet side of both ends of the front end portion of the nozzle tip Connected to a cooling water reservoir provided with a check valve, connected to a water injection hole for injecting the water into the combustion chamber of the engine via the cooling water reservoir, and the cooling water introduced into the cooling water inlet passage it characterized in that it is configured the spiral cooling channels were allowed to flow to the front end portion of the nozzle tip so as to inject into the combustion chamber from the water injection holes through the check valve.

Therefore, it is possible to easily arrange these devices and members, and to give a degree of freedom to the arrangement.

According to the first aspect of the present invention, the end of the spiral cooling groove extending from the cooling water inlet at the top of the nozzle tip toward the tip of the nozzle tip is communicated with the cooling chamber in the cylinder cover. Since the cooling water discharge hole is connected, there is no need to provide a cooling groove on the cooling water outlet side on the outer periphery of the nozzle tip, the structure of the cooling passage of the nozzle tip is simplified and the number of processing steps of the cooling passage can be reduced. .
Furthermore, since the exit side of the spiral cooling groove formed in the nozzle tip is opened to the cooling chamber in the cylinder cover having a large passage area, the flow resistance of the cooling water passage is reduced and the flow rate of the cooling water is increased. The cooling effect is improved by increasing the heat transfer coefficient between the cooling water and the nozzle tip wall surface.
