Description

  The present invention relates to a fuel injection valve for injecting and supplying fuel to an internal combustion engine (hereinafter referred to as “engine”).

  Conventionally, there has been known a fuel injection valve in which a needle and a movable core are provided so as to form a gap between a needle that opens and closes an injection hole formed in a housing when fuel is not injected and the movable core. In the fuel injection valve, in addition to the magnetic attractive force generated between the fixed core and the movable core, the needle is moved in the valve opening direction by an impact at the time of collision of the movable core having a certain speed by moving the gap. As a result, relatively high-pressure fuel can be injected without increasing the magnetic attractive force. For example, Patent Document 1 discloses a fuel including a spring that urges the needle and the movable core so as to form a gap between the needle and the movable core, and a sleeve that forms a housing space that houses the spring as the movable core. An injection valve is described.

  In the fuel injection valve described in Patent Document 1, the sleeve is formed of a member separate from the movable core. The sleeve is formed with a through hole through which the needle is inserted together with the movable core. For this reason, when the central axis of the movable core and the central axis of the sleeve are displaced when the movable core and the sleeve are assembled, the sliding movement between the movable core and the housing of the fuel injection valve that accommodates the movable core in a reciprocating manner is offset. Occurs. Further, the other end of the spring whose one end is in contact with the needle is in contact with the pedestal portion of the sleeve. For this reason, if the site | part welded to the movable core of a sleeve and the base part of a sleeve are assembled | attached non-parallel, a movable core and a needle will contact each other at the time of valve opening. When the fuel injection pressure is increased, abnormal wear may occur in the movable core or the needle due to the deviation of the sliding or the contact of the contact.

  The present invention has been made in view of the above points, and an object of the present invention is to provide a fuel injection valve that improves durability while increasing the fuel injection pressure.

The present invention relates to a fuel injection valve, a housing having an injection hole, a rod-like member whose one end opens and closes the injection hole, a movable member provided radially outside the other end of the rod-like member, a fixed core, and movable when energized A coil for generating a magnetic attractive force between the member and the fixed core, a first urging member, a first restricting member, a first pedestal member, a second pedestal member, a second restricting member, and a second urging member; Prepare.
The first biasing member biases the valve member in the valve closing direction so that the rod-shaped member contacts the valve seat. The first restricting member is provided on the radially outer side of the other end of the rod-like member so as not to move relative to the rod-like member, and restricts the relative movement of the rod-like member in the valve closing direction with respect to the movable member when coming into contact with the movable member. . The first pedestal member is provided on the bar-shaped member side of the first restricting member so that it cannot move relative to the bar-shaped member. The second pedestal member is provided on the nozzle hole side of the first pedestal member so as to be movable relative to the rod-shaped member. The first pedestal member is formed such that the outer wall is slidable on the inner wall surface of the movable member. The second restricting member is provided on the nozzle hole side of the second pedestal member so that it cannot move relative to the rod-shaped member. When the second restricting member comes into contact with the second pedestal member, the second regulating member moves relatively to the nozzle hole side with respect to the rod-shaped member. Can be regulated. The second biasing member is provided between the first base member and the second base member, and biases the first base member and the second base member so that the first base member and the second base member are separated from each other. .
In the fuel injection valve of the present invention, the second pedestal member and the movable member are integrally formed, and when the second pedestal member and the second restriction member abut, there is a gap between the first restriction member and the movable member. It is formed.

  The fuel injection valve of the present invention is provided so as not to move relative to the rod-shaped member when the second pedestal member provided so as not to move relative to the movable member and the second restricting member come into contact with each other. A gap is formed between the first regulating member and the movable member. When opening the nozzle hole, the movable member collides with the first regulating member after moving the length corresponding to the gap by the magnetic attraction force generated between the movable member and the fixed core.

  The first restricting portion 42 is an annular portion that is provided on the radially outer side of the end portion of the main body portion 41 opposite to the nozzle hole 31 side so as not to move relative to the main body portion 41. The first restricting portion 42 is formed so that the outer diameter is larger than the outer diameter of the main body portion 41, the outer diameter of the first pedestal portion 43, and the inner diameter of the through hole 502 of the movable core 50. The end surface 421 on the nozzle hole 31 side of the first restricting portion 42 can abut on the end surface 501 on the fixed core 33 side of the movable core 50.

  The first pedestal portion 43 is an annular portion that is provided so as not to move relative to the main body portion 41 between the end portion of the main body portion 41 opposite to the nozzle hole 31 side and the first restricting portion 42. It is. The first pedestal portion 43 is formed so that the outer diameter is larger than the outer diameter of the main body portion 41. The outer wall 432 on the outer side in the radial direction of the first pedestal portion 43 is slidably formed on the inner wall of the movable core 50 that forms the through hole 502. One end of a spring 26 described later is in contact with the first pedestal portion 43.

  The second regulating member 45 is provided on the outer side in the radial direction of the main body 41 and on the nozzle hole 31 side of the second pedestal 52 of the movable core 50. The second regulating member 45 is formed in an annular shape, and is fixed to the outer wall on the radially outer side of the main body 41 by, for example, welding. The second restricting member 45 can contact the second pedestal portion 52.

  The movable core 50 is formed in a substantially cylindrical shape and subjected to a magnetic stabilization process. The hardness of the movable core 50 is relatively low and is substantially equal to the hardness of the first housing member 21 and the third housing member 23. The movable core 50 is formed of a movable portion 51 as a “movable member”, a second pedestal portion 52 as a “second pedestal member”, and the like. In the movable core 50, the movable part 51 and the second pedestal part 52 are integrally formed.

  The movable part 51 is formed in a substantially cylindrical shape. A through hole 502 is formed in the approximate center of the movable portion 51 in the axial direction. The body portion 41 is inserted into the through hole 502 and the spring 26 is accommodated.

  In addition, a core fuel passage 503 is formed in the movable portion 51 as a “third fuel passage” communicating with the through hole 502 inside the movable portion 51. The core fuel passage 503 communicates with the through hole 502 through an opening 504 formed in the inner wall of the movable portion 51 that forms the through hole 502. The core fuel passage 503 is an internal part of the first housing member 21 formed on the nozzle hole 31 side of the movable core 50 through the opening 505 formed on the end surface 506 of the movable part 51 on the nozzle hole 31 side. It communicates with the space 210. The cross-sectional area of the core fuel passage 503 is larger than the cross-sectional area of the injection hole 31.

The second pedestal portion 52 is formed in a substantially annular shape. The second pedestal portion 52 has a through hole 521 formed so that the inner diameter is smaller than the inner diameter of the through hole 502. The main body 41 is inserted through the through hole 521.

  The fixed core 33 is formed in a substantially cylindrical shape and subjected to a magnetic stabilization process. The hardness of the fixed core 33 is substantially equal to the hardness of the movable core 50, but in order to ensure the function as a stopper of the movable core 50, for example, chrome plating is applied to the surface to ensure the necessary hardness. The fixed core 33 is welded to the third housing member 23 of the housing 20 so as to be fixed to the inside of the housing 20.

  The coil 35 is formed in a substantially cylindrical shape and is provided so as to mainly surround the radially outer sides of the second housing member 22 and the third housing member 23. The coil 35 generates a magnetic force when electric power is supplied.

  One end of the spring 24 is provided so as to abut on the end surface 401 on the opposite side of the main body portion 41, the first restricting portion 42 or the first pedestal portion 43 from the nozzle hole 31 side. The other end of the spring 24 is in contact with one end face of the adjusting pipe 11 that is press-fitted and fixed inside the fixed core 33. The spring 24 has a force that extends in the direction of the central axis CA0. As a result, the spring 24 biases the needle 40 in the direction of the valve seat 304, that is, in the valve closing direction.

  The spring 26 is provided outside the main body 41 in the radial direction. One end of the spring 26 is in contact with the end surface 522 of the second pedestal portion 52 opposite to the nozzle hole 31 side. The other end of the spring 26 is in contact with the end face 431 of the first pedestal portion 43 on the nozzle hole 31 side. The spring 26 has a force extending in the axial direction. Accordingly, the spring 26 biases the first pedestal portion 43 and the second pedestal portion 52 so that the first pedestal portion 43 and the second pedestal portion 52 are separated from each other. That is, the spring 26 urges the needle 40 and the movable core 50 to be separated from each other.

  In the present embodiment, the urging force of the spring 24 is set larger than the urging force of the spring 26. As a result, in a state where power is not supplied to the coil 35, the seal portion 411 of the needle 40 is controlled by the difference in urging force between the spring 24 and the spring 26 and the pressure of the fuel inside the first housing member 21. It will be in the state which contact | abutted to the seat 304, ie, a valve closing state.

  A substantially cylindrical fuel introduction pipe 12 is provided at the end of the third housing member 23 opposite to the second housing member 22. A filter 13 is provided inside the fuel introduction pipe 12. The filter 13 collects foreign matters contained in the fuel that has flowed from the introduction port 14 of the fuel introduction pipe 12.

  The radially outer sides of the fuel introduction pipe 12 and the third housing member 23 are molded with resin. A connector 15 is formed in the mold part. The connector 15 is insert-molded with a terminal 16 for supplying power to the coil 35. A cylindrical holder 17 is provided outside the coil 35 in the radial direction so as to cover the coil 35.

  Next, the operation of the fuel injection valve 1 will be described with reference to FIGS. FIG. 2 shows a state where the second pedestal 52 and the second regulating member 45 are in contact with each other. FIG. 3 shows a state where the first restricting portion 42 and the movable portion 51 are in contact with each other.

  When no electric power is supplied to the coil 35, the seal portion 411 is in contact with the valve seat 304 in the fuel injection valve 1. At this time, as shown in FIG. 2, the second pedestal 52 and the second regulating member 45 are in contact with each other. A gap 200 is formed between the end surface 501 of the movable core 50 and the end surface 421 of the first restricting portion 42.

  When electric power is supplied to the coil 35, a magnetic field is generated around the coil 35, and a magnetic circuit is formed inside the fixed core 33, the movable core 50, the first housing member 21, and the third housing member 23. Thereby, a magnetic attractive force that moves the movable core 50 in the valve opening direction is generated between the fixed core 33 and the movable core 50.

  When the magnetic attractive force generated between the fixed core 33 and the movable core 50 becomes larger than the urging force of the spring 26, the movable core 50 moves in the valve opening direction. Since the movable core 50 is pulled by a magnetic attraction force between the fixed core 33 and the movable core 50 at a distance corresponding to the length of the gap 200 in the direction of the central axis CA0, it collides with the first restricting portion 42 at a certain speed. To do. As a result, a force caused by an impact when the movable core 50 that moves at a certain speed collides with the main body portion 41 formed integrally with the first restricting portion 42 (hereinafter referred to as “impact force”), and The sum of the magnetic attractive forces generated between the fixed core 33 and the movable core 50 acts in the valve opening direction. When the seal portion 411 is in contact with the valve seat 304, the needle 40 has an area on the radially inward side of the portion where the seal portion 411 and the valve seat 304 are in contact with the fuel in the first housing member 21. A force corresponding to the product of the pressure (hereinafter referred to as “fuel pressure”) and the urging force of the spring 24 act in the valve closing direction. When the sum of the impact force and the magnetic attractive force is larger than the sum of the fuel pressure and the biasing force of the spring 24, the needle 40 moves in the valve opening direction, and the seal portion 411 is separated from the valve seat 304. As a result, the fuel staying inside the first housing member 21 is injected and supplied from the injection hole 31 to the combustion chamber of the engine.

  When the supply of electric power to the coil 35 is stopped after the desired amount of fuel is injected and supplied to the combustion chamber, the magnetic field around the coil 35 disappears. When the magnetic field disappears around the coil 35, the magnetic attractive force between the fixed core 33 and the movable core 50 disappears, and the movable core 50 moves in the valve closing direction together with the needle 40 by the urging force of the spring 24. When the seal portion 411 contacts the valve seat 304, the movement of the needle 40 in the valve closing direction stops. On the other hand, the movable core 50 that has moved in the valve closing direction together with the needle 40 further moves in the valve closing direction due to inertia. At this time, a part of the fuel in the internal space 210 is pushed into the fixed core 33 through the core fuel passage 503, the communication hole 414, and the needle fuel passage 413 due to the movement of the movable core 50 in the valve closing direction. The second pedestal 52 abuts against the second restricting member 45 while the moving core 50 gradually reduces the moving speed in the valve closing direction due to the damper effect of the fuel staying in the internal space 210.

  In the fuel injection valve 1 according to the first embodiment, when the second pedestal portion 52 and the second restriction member 45 formed integrally with the movable portion 51 come into contact with each other, the end surface 421 of the first restriction portion 42 and the movable core 50 are contacted. A gap 200 is formed between the end face 501 and the end face 501. The gap 200 is a running distance for the movable core 50 to have a certain speed when the movable core 50 moves in the valve opening direction by the magnetic attractive force between the movable core 50 and the fixed core 33. When the movable core 50 that is pulled by the magnetic attractive force at a distance corresponding to the axial length of the gap 200 collides with the first restricting portion 42 at a certain speed, the movable core 50 and the fixed core 33 are connected to the needle 40. In addition to the magnetic attractive force between them, the above-mentioned impact force acts in the valve opening direction. As a result, even when the fuel inside the first housing member 21 is relatively high pressure and the fuel pressure is relatively large, the needle 40 is separated from the valve seat 304 without increasing the magnetic attractive force so that the nozzle hole 31 is formed. Can be opened. Therefore, the fuel injection valve 1 can inject relatively high-pressure fuel.

  In the fuel injection valve 1 according to the first embodiment, since the second pedestal portion 52 is formed integrally with the movable portion 51, the second pedestal portion 52 can be provided with high accuracy with respect to the movable portion 51. Thereby, in the inside of the housing 20 in which the high-pressure fuel stays, it is possible to prevent the sliding deviation between the movable core 50 and the housing 20 and the one-side contact between the movable core 50 and the needle 40. Therefore, the fuel injection valve 1 can improve the durability while increasing the fuel injection pressure.

  In addition, the fuel injection valve 1 can reduce the number of parts constituting the fuel injection valve 1 as compared with the case where the second pedestal member is configured by a member different from the movable member. Thereby, the manufacturing cost of the fuel injection valve 1 can be reduced.

  Generally, when a fuel injection valve in which a needle and a movable core are constituted by separate members is closed, after the needle abuts on a valve seat, the movable core moves in the valve closing direction due to inertia. If the moving speed of the movable core due to this inertia is fast, the movable core moves again in the valve opening direction after colliding with the inner wall on the nozzle hole side of the housing. When the movable core that moves again in the valve opening direction collides with the needle, the needle is separated from the valve seat, and there is a possibility that unscheduled fuel injection is performed.

  A needle fuel passage 413 and a communication hole 414 that connect the inside of the fixed core 33 and the through hole 502 are formed in the main body portion 41 of the needle 40 included in the fuel injection valve 1. The movable core 50 has a core fuel passage 503 that communicates the through hole 502 and the internal space 210. The needle fuel passage 413, the communication hole 414, and the core fuel passage 503 communicate the inside of the fixed core 33 and the inside of the first housing member 21, and allow the fuel introduced from the introduction port 14 to the vicinity of the seal portion 411. Lead. Further, the needle fuel passage 413, the communication hole 414, and the core fuel passage 503 are provided for appropriately fixing the fuel in the internal space 210 by moving the movable core 50 in the valve closing direction when the fuel injection valve 1 is closed. Return to the inside of 33. At this time, the moving speed of the movable core 50 in the valve closing direction can be gradually reduced by the damper effect of the fuel in the internal space 210. This prevents the movable core 50 moving in the valve closing direction from coming into contact with the second restricting member 45 and then moving again in the valve closing direction to collide with the needle 40 and separating the needle 40 from the valve seat 304. To do. Therefore, unscheduled fuel injection can be prevented.

  In addition, the gap 200, which is a running distance for the movable core 50 to have a certain speed when the valve is opened, is between the end surface 501 of the movable core 50 and the end surface 421 of the first restricting portion 42 and is outside the movable core 50. Is provided. Thereby, the axial length of the gap 200 can be adjusted at the time of assembly as compared with a case where a space having the same effect as the gap 200 is formed by a plurality of members inside the movable core 50. Therefore, the fuel injection valve 1 can perform a desired on-off valve operation.

(Second embodiment)
Next, the fuel injection valve by 2nd embodiment of this invention is demonstrated based on FIG. The second embodiment is different from the first embodiment in that a cylindrical member is provided between the movable member and the second pedestal member. In addition, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected to the site | part substantially the same as 1st embodiment, and description is abbreviate | omitted.

In the fuel injection valve 2 according to the second embodiment, the movable core 60 includes a movable portion 61 as a “movable member”, a second pedestal portion 62 as a “second pedestal member”, a cylindrical portion 63 as a “tubular member”, and the like. Formed from. In the movable core 60, the movable part 61, the second pedestal part 62, and the cylindrical part 63 are integrally formed.

  A through hole 602 is formed in the approximate center of the movable portion 61 in the axial direction. The body portion 41 is inserted into the through hole 602 and the spring 26 is accommodated.

  The cylinder part 63 is formed so as to extend in the valve closing direction from an edge part 606 on the injection hole 31 side of the movable part 61 and forming an opening on the injection hole 31 side of the through hole 602. The cylindrical portion 63 has an internal space 631 having the same inner diameter as the through hole 602 inside. The spring 26 is accommodated in the internal space 631. A core fuel passage 632 serving as a “fourth fuel passage” is formed in a direction substantially perpendicular to the axial direction of the cylindrical portion 63. The core fuel passage 632 communicates the internal space 631 and the internal space 210.

The second pedestal 62 is provided at an end portion opposite to the side connected to the movable portion 61 of the cylindrical portion 63. The second pedestal portion 62 is formed in a substantially annular shape and is provided so as to be in contact with the second restricting member 45. The other end of the spring 26 is in contact with the end surface 622 of the second pedestal portion 62 on the inner space 631 side.

  In the fuel injection valve 2 according to the second embodiment, a gap 200 is formed between the end surface 601 of the movable core 60 on the fixed core 33 side and the end surface 421 of the first restricting portion 42. Thereby, the fuel injection valve 2 by 2nd embodiment can have the effect of 1st embodiment.

  Moreover, in the fuel injection valve 2, the 1st base part 43 is formed long compared with 1st embodiment. Most of the first pedestal portion 43 is inserted into the through hole 602, and when the needle 40 reciprocates with respect to the movable core 60, the outer wall 432 of the first pedestal portion 43 forms a through hole 602. It slides on the inner wall of the core 60. In the fuel injection valve 2 according to the second embodiment, the sliding length between the outer wall 432 and the inner wall of the movable core 60 forming the through hole 602 can be made longer than that in the first embodiment. Thereby, the fuel injection valve 2 according to the second embodiment can stably perform the relative movement between the movable core 60 and the needle 40.

In the fuel injection valve 2, the spring 26 is accommodated in the internal space 631 and the through hole 602. Thereby, since the expansion and contraction motion of the spring 26 is guided by the inner wall of the cylindrical portion 63 and the inner wall of the movable portion 61, the spring 26 can operate stably.

(Third embodiment)
Next, the fuel injection valve by 3rd embodiment of this invention is demonstrated based on FIG. The third embodiment is different from the second embodiment in the configuration of the first restriction member, the second restriction member, and the first pedestal member. In addition, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected to the site | part substantially the same as 2nd embodiment, and description is abbreviate | omitted.

  In the fuel injection valve 3 according to the third embodiment, the needle 70 includes a main body portion 71 as a “bar-shaped member”, a first restriction portion 72 as a “first restriction member”, and a first pedestal as a “first pedestal member”. It is formed from part 73 and the like. In the fuel injection valve 3, the main body portion 71, the first restricting portion 72, and the first pedestal portion 73 are formed from different members.
