Description: BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an injection control device for a pressure-accumulation fuel injection device for a diesel engine, and more particularly to improving the control accuracy of the injection start timing, pre-injection and main injection. The present invention relates to an injection timing control device for a pressure-accumulation fuel injection device for a diesel engine, which can perform two-stage injection with the above and can realize the two-stage injection even in a low load region.

<Prior Art> Generally, a pressure accumulating fuel injection device for a diesel engine is
For example, as shown in FIG. 1 or FIG. 6, a pressure accumulation type fuel injector 7 and a fuel supply system for supplying fuel to this are provided.

The pressure-accumulation fuel injector 7 is a fuel injector that injects fuel that has been accumulated and accumulated at a high pressure such as 700 to 1200 atm, and is, for example, as shown in FIG. 1, FIG. 2, and FIG. A fuel inlet 11 for receiving fuel from the outside, a valve closing pressure chamber 12, a check valve 13, and a fuel pressure accumulating chamber which are sequentially connected to the fuel inlet 11.
14, the injection valve 15 and the injection hole 16, and the valve closing spring 43, the injection valve 15 is urged to open the valve by the internal pressure of the fuel pressure accumulating storage chamber 14, while the urging force and closing of the valve closing spring 43. The valve pressure chamber 12 is configured to be biased to be closed by the internal pressure of the valve chamber 12. The fuel injection valve 15 is a fuel supply system that injects high-pressure fuel of, for example, 700 to 1200 atm while the injection valve 15 is closed by a valve closing spring 43 that opposes the internal pressure of the fuel pressure accumulating chamber 14. Fuel pressure storage chamber through inlet 11, valve closing pressure chamber 12 and check valve 13
After press-fitting in 14, the internal pressure of the valve closing pressure chamber 12 is depressurized so that the internal pressure of the valve closing pressure chamber 12 and the urging force of the valve closing spring 43 are more than the valve opening force of the internal pressure of the fuel pressure accumulating chamber 14. The injection valve 15 is opened by weakening the valve closing force, and the fuel is injected from the injection hole 16.

The fuel supply system is designed to inject fuel at a high pressure as described above into the pressure-accumulation fuel injector 7 at a predetermined timing.
It is usually configured as follows. That is, the first
As shown in FIGS. 6 and 6, fuel is pumped out of a fuel tank 1 by a fuel pump (feed pump) 2 and the pressure of the pumped fuel is regulated by a pressure regulator 3 in accordance with, for example, the engine speed. A pressure pump (transfer pump) after the amount is adjusted by the metering device 4 according to the load condition of the engine.
5, the fuel discharged from the pressure-feeding pump 5 is pressurized by the fuel injection pump 6 to a high pressure of a predetermined pressure or higher such as 700 to 1200 atm, and is injected into the pressure-accumulation fuel injector 7. There is. Further, the fuel injection pump 6 is
Normally, a plunger pump is provided, and an inlet valve 10 is provided on the upstream side of a pump chamber 9 through which the plunger 8 moves in and out in order to prevent reverse flow to the pressure pump 5, and the outlet side of the pump chamber 9 is a pressure accumulation type fuel injector. 7 is connected to the fuel inlet 11.

By the way, in the pressure-accumulation fuel injection device for diesel engine configured as described above, the injection control device configured to open the injection valve 15 by depressurizing the internal pressure of the valve closing pressure chamber at a predetermined timing. Needed.

Conventionally, the above fuel injection pump 6 is also used as an injection control device of a pressure accumulation type fuel injection device. That is, the volume of the pump chamber 9 is increased by retracting the plunger 8 from the pump chamber 9 after the fuel is accumulated in the pressure-accumulation fuel injector 7, and the closed space defined between the inlet valve 10 and the check valve 13 is increased. The internal pressures of the valve pressure chamber 12, the fuel inlet 11 and the pump chamber 9 are reduced, and the valve closing force is reduced rather than the valve opening force to open the injection valve 15.

<Problems to be Solved by the Invention> In such a fuel injection control device for a conventional pressure-accumulation fuel injection device, a cam that drives the plunger 9 in order to counteract the internal pressure of the pump chamber 9 received by the plunger 8 or an interlocking with the cam. It is necessary to provide a relatively large contact area with the power transmission mechanism. Therefore, it is difficult to form a cam profile that causes the plunger 8 to rise rapidly, which imposes a great limitation in increasing the rate of rise of the plunger. Further, the inertia of the plunger 8 also gives a certain limit to the rising speed of the plunger 8. The restriction on the rising speed of the plunger 8 imposes a large restriction on the expansion rate of the volume of the pump chamber 9, and the pressure reduction gradient of the internal pressure of the valve closing pressure chamber 12 cannot be made steeper than a certain level. In addition, the range of variation in control of the injection start timing caused by some reason such as mechanical vibration due to impact between the drive device that drives the drive device and components in the drive device becomes large.

Therefore, as a result of intensive research, the inventor of the present invention has solved the conventional problems and improved the injection start timing control accuracy by controlling the injection control device of the accumulator type fuel injection device for diesel engines (hereinafter, Prior invention) was invented prior to the present invention.

That is, in this prior invention, as shown in FIG. 8, an injection start command valve (here, the inlet valve 10 of the fuel injection pump 6 is also used) is provided in the valve closing pressure chamber 12 of the pressure accumulating fuel injector 7. Injection start command means 18 for opening and closing the inlet valve / injection start command valve 10 at a predetermined timing while connecting the pressure release path 17 via
The technical measure is taken to provide.

In this prior invention, the inlet valve / injection start command valve 10 is composed of a spool valve that is biased to be closed by the internal pressure of the flow passage on the upstream side thereof, and the injection start command means 18 is linked to the crankshaft to set the timing. A valve 19 and a decompression chamber 20 connected to the upstream side flow path of the inlet valve / injection start command valve 10 via the timing setting valve 19 are provided, and the fuel injection pump 6 supplies fuel to the pressure accumulation type fuel injector 7. After press-fitting the valve, the timing setting valve 19 is opened at a predetermined crankshaft angle to connect the upstream side flow path of the inlet valve / injection start command valve 10 and the decompression chamber 20 to make the inlet valve / injection start command valve The internal pressure of the flow passage on the upstream side of 10 is reduced, the inlet valve / injection start command valve 10 is opened, and the internal pressures of the pump chamber 9 and the valve closing pressure chamber 12 are reduced.

In this case, since the injection start command means 18 opens the inlet valve / injection start command valve 10 at a predetermined timing to reduce the internal pressure of the valve closing pressure chamber 12, the valve closing pressure is sharper than the above-mentioned conventional example. It is possible to reduce the internal pressure of the chamber 12, which is more advantageous for increasing the engine speed, and there is an advantage that the injection start timing can be easily controlled only by the fuel supply system.

Further, by appropriately setting the shape of the valve hole of the inlet valve / injection start command valve 10 or the timing setting valve 19, the opening amount of the inlet valve / injection start command valve 10 can be changed.
Change according to the stroke of the spool of the pump chamber 9
And controlling the pressure reduction of the internal pressure of the valve closing pressure chamber 12 with time, and reducing the fuel injection amount as pre-injection by suppressing the valve opening amount of the injection valve small within the ignition late period from the injection start to the ignition, After the ignition, the injection valve can be rapidly fully opened to inject a large amount of fuel as the main injection within a short time. Then, by realizing such two-stage injection of pre-injection and main injection, it is possible to weaken the explosive force at the time of ignition and prevent the occurrence of diesel knock.

In this prior invention, the inlet valve / injection start command valve 10 is provided in the vicinity of the pressure accumulation type fuel injector 7, whereas the timing setting valve 19 is for simplifying the interlocking mechanism between this and the crankshaft. Is supported on the shaft end of the crankshaft (or a rotary shaft such as a valve camshaft linked to the crankshaft),
The pressure-accumulation fuel injector 7 is arranged at a position considerably distant from the cylinder head to which the fuel injector 7 is attached. In addition, the decompression chamber 20
Also, in order to shorten the distance from the timing setting valve 19, for example, it is installed in the timing setting valve 19 and is arranged at a position away from the pressure accumulation type fuel injector 7.

However, if the path length from the valve closing pressure chamber 12 to the pressure reducing chamber 20 is long in this way, the flow path resistance between them becomes large, and the pump chamber 9 after the inlet valve / injection start command valve 10 is opened,
The pressure reduction gradient of the internal pressures of the fuel inlet 11 and the valve closing pressure chamber 12 becomes relatively slow to improve the control sensitivity, and the range of variation in the valve opening start timing control of the injection valve 15 is narrowed to control accuracy. It turns out that there is still dissatisfaction with raising the level.

Therefore, the present inventor has further improved this prior invention, which is advantageous in increasing the speed of the engine, and moreover, the accumulator fuel injection device for a diesel engine, which is capable of enhancing the control accuracy of the injection start timing. Invented an injection control device (hereinafter referred to as an improved invention). In this improved invention, as shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 3, an injection start command valve 21 and an injection start decompression chamber 22 which are arranged in the valve closing pressure chamber 12 of the pressure accumulating fuel injector 7 are provided close to the valve closing pressure chamber 12. Are connected in order, and the injection start command valve
Injection start command means 18 for opening 21 at the start of predetermined injection
Is provided. Incidentally, in the example shown in FIGS. 1 to 3,
Although the injection start command valve 21 is configured to be functionally independent of the inlet valve 10, the injection start command valve 21 and the inlet valve 10 may be combined.

In this improved invention, the injection start decompression chamber 22 is opened from the valve closing pressure chamber 12.
Since the distance between the injection start command valve 21 and the injection start command valve 21 is small, the pressure decrease gradient in the valve closing pressure chamber 12 becomes steep, and the control sensitivity is increased to speed up the engine. This is advantageous in terms of achievement, and the variation in injection start timing can be reduced.

In this improved invention, it is conceivable to provide the decompression chamber 22 for injection start independently of the decompression chamber 20 of the injection start command means 18.

However, in this case, in the press-fitting stroke of the plunger 8, the valve closing pressure chamber 12 and the injection start decompression chamber 22 are temporarily communicated with each other, and relatively high pressure fuel is confined in the injection start decompression chamber 22. When the injection start command valve 21 is opened to control the injection start timing, especially in the low load region, the valve closing pressure chamber is closed.
The difference between the internal pressure of 12 and the internal pressure of the injection start decompression chamber 22 becomes relatively small, the valve closing pressure chamber 12 is not sufficiently decompressed, the injection start timing is delayed, effective pre-injection cannot be performed, and diesel knock occurs. It may occur.

The present invention has been made in consideration of the above circumstances, is advantageous in achieving high-speed engine operation, and is capable of improving the control accuracy of the injection start timing, as well as pre-injection and main injection. It is an object of the present invention to provide an injection control device for a pressure-accumulation fuel injection device for a diesel engine, which can perform two-stage injection and can realize the two-stage injection even in a low load region.

<Means for Solving the Problems> An injection control device of a pressure-accumulation fuel injection device for a diesel engine according to the present invention can be applied to a pressure-accumulation fuel injection device for a diesel engine as shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, for example. A pressure accumulation type fuel injector 7 and a fuel supply system for supplying fuel to the pressure accumulation type fuel injector 7 are provided, and the pressure accumulation type fuel injector 7 has a fuel inlet 11, a valve closing pressure chamber 12 and a check valve 13 sequentially connected thereto. , The fuel pressure accumulating chamber 14, the injection valve 15 and the injection hole 16, and a valve closing spring 43. The injection valve 15 is urged to open by the internal pressure of the fuel pressure accumulating chamber 14 while the valve closing spring 43. And the internal pressure of the valve closing pressure chamber 12, the fuel is accumulated from the fuel supply system through the fuel inlet 11, the valve closing pressure chamber 12 and the check valve 13. After being press-fitted into the injection valve 14, the internal pressure of the valve closing pressure chamber 12 is released at a predetermined timing so that the injection valve
It is premised on an injection control device of a pressure-accumulation fuel injection device for a diesel engine configured to open the injection valve 15 by weakening the valve closing biasing force of 15 than the valve opening biasing force.

Then, in the injection control device of the pressure-accumulation type fuel injection device for a diesel engine having such a configuration, in order to achieve the above object, as shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 4 or FIG. It is characterized by being configured.

That is, the valve closing pressure chamber (1
2), the injection start command valve (21) placed close to this
And a small volume injection decompression chamber (22) are connected in sequence, and the injection start command valve (21) is connected to the fuel injection pump (6) and the valve closing pressure chamber (12) via the inlet valve (10). ), The injection start command valve (21) and the inlet valve (1
The pressure receiving chamber (36) for urging the valve body (29) of (0) to close and the valve opening pressure chamber (35) for urging the valve body (29) to open are provided, and the injection start command valve ( 21) is opened at the start of fuel injection for a predetermined ignition, and after this opening, injection start command means (18) for opening the inlet valve (10) is provided, and this injection start command means (18) includes A timing setting valve (19) that is opened at a predetermined time point after fuel is injected from the fuel injection pump (6) to the pressure accumulation type fuel injector (7), and the above pressure reception via this timing setting valve (19). A pressure reducing chamber (20) communicating with the chamber (36) is provided, and by opening this timing setting valve (19), the pressure receiving chamber (3
6) is communicated with the decompression chamber (20) to reduce the internal pressure of the pressure receiving chamber (36), so that the injection start command valve (21) is first opened with the internal pressure of the valve opening pressure chamber (35), Valve closing pressure chamber (12)
The internal pressure of the valve to the injection decompression chamber (22), then the inlet valve (10) is opened with the internal pressure of the valve opening pressure chamber (35), and the internal pressure of the valve closing pressure chamber (12) is reduced to the above pressure. The pressure setting chamber (20) is depressurized to the chamber (20), the timing setting valve (19) is linked to the crankshaft of the engine, and the injection starting decompression chamber (22) is received through the minute passage (60). (36), in the fuel injection stroke (C), the pressure of the pressure receiving chamber (36) is increased by the discharge operation of the plunger (8), the inlet valve (10) is closed, and then the injection start command valve From the valve closing time (f) when (21) is closed, in the fuel injection stroke (D) for ignition,
The pressure (P ₀ ) in the pressure receiving chamber (36) is reduced by the opening operation of the injection start command means (18 timing setting valve (19)).
The period up to the valve opening time (k) at which the injection start command valve (21) is opened by depressurizing to is the pressure accumulation period (t ₁ ), and the minute passage (60) is within this pressure accumulation period (t ₁ ). The pressure (P ₄ ) in the injection decompression chamber (22) at the pressure receiving chamber (3
6), and the pressure (P ₄ ) in the injection decompression chamber (22)
Is configured to be reduced to the pressure (P ₀ ) of the pressure receiving chamber (36).

<Operation and Effect of the Invention> Since the present invention is configured as described above, the following operation and effects are achieved.

(A) Prevention of diesel knock by fuel injection for ignition (C) Fuel injection In the fuel injection process (C) shown in FIG. 4, the plunger (8) moves from top dead center to bottom dead center with a fuel injection cam (not shown). When the discharge driving is started toward, the fuel pressure (P ₁ ) in the pump chamber (9) rises. This fuel first passes through the inlet valve (10) and is press-fitted into the pressure receiving chamber (36).
0) and the injection start command valve (21) are closed. Then, the check valve (13) is pushed open to open the fuel pressure accumulating chamber (14).
Is pressed into.

(D) Ignition fuel injection In the ignition fuel injection process (D), the timing setting valve (1
When 9) is opened, the pressure (P ₀ ) in the pressure receiving chamber (36) is released from the timing setting valve (19) to the pressure reducing chamber (20) and the pressure decreases, and the valve disc (29) opens. It is moved to the valve opening side by the pressure (P ₀ ′) in the chamber (35).

First, the injection start command valve (21) is opened and the valve closing pressure chamber (12) is closed.
Pressure (P ₁ ) is released from the injection start command valve (21) to the injection start decompression chamber (22) to decrease the pressure, and the injection valve (1
When the valve closing force of 5) becomes weaker than the valve opening force, the injection valve (1
5) is opened, the fuel in the fuel pressure accumulating chamber (14) is injected from the injection hole (16), and the fuel injection for ignition is started.

Since the injection-starting decompression chamber (22) has a small volume, the pressure (P ₁ ) in the valve closing pressure chamber (12) only slightly drops. When the fuel injection for ignition progresses and the pressure (P ₂ ) in the fuel pressure accumulating chamber (14) slightly decreases, the valve opening force of the injection valve (15) becomes weaker than the valve closing force, and the injection valve (15) ) Is closed, and fuel injection for ignition ends.

The injection valve (15) is closed and the fuel injection is interrupted until a predetermined time elapses after the ignition fuel injection is completed.

(E) Main fuel injection In the main fuel injection stroke (E), the movement of the valve element (29) to the valve opening side in the ignition fuel injection stroke (D) continues to proceed, and After the end, the inlet valve (10) opens when a predetermined time has elapsed. Then, the pressure (P ₁ ) in the valve closing pressure chamber (12) is released to the pressure reducing chamber (20) via the inlet valve (10) and the timing setting valve (19), and the pressure decreases again. The valve closing force of the injection valve (15) becomes weaker than the valve opening force, the injection valve (15) is opened, and the fuel in the fuel pressure accumulating chamber (14) is injected from the injection hole (16), Main fuel injection begins.

As the main fuel injection progresses, the fuel pressure accumulation chamber (14)
(P ₂ ) decreases, and eventually the valve opening force of the injection valve (15) becomes weaker than the valve closing force, the injection valve (15) is closed, and main fuel injection ends.

As described above, the fuel injection is not performed from once the ignition fuel injection is ended to the main fuel injection is started, so that the fuel injection amount during the ignition delay period may be small, and is continued. The pressure rise rate of the combustion gas during the explosive combustion period is low, and diesel knock is less likely to occur.

(B) Improvement of control accuracy of ignition fuel injection start timing Since the injection start command valve (21) and the injection start decompression chamber (22) are arranged close to the valve closing pressure chamber (12), the valve closing pressure is increased. The resistance of the flow path from the chamber (12) to the injection start decompression chamber (22) is small, and the decompression gradient of the valve closing pressure chamber (12) becomes steep.

As a result, the response sensitivity from the opening of the injection start command valve (21) to the pressure reduction of the valve closing pressure chamber (12) becomes sensitive, and the variation in the opening timing of the injection valve (15) decreases. The control accuracy of the injection start timing of the fuel injection for ignition is improved.

(C) High-speed engine rotation The injection start command valve (21) and inlet valve (10) are kept at the pressure (P ₀ ′) in the valve opening pressure chamber (35) due to the pressure reduction in the valve closing pressure receiving chamber (36). The valve is opened. The pressure (P ₀ ) in the valve closing pressure receiving chamber (36) is increased to a high pressure by the discharge pressure of the fuel injection pump (6), and the pressure (P ₀ ′) in the valve opening pressure chamber (35) is balanced with this.
Also becomes high pressure.

Since the pressure (P ₀ ) in the valve closing pressure receiving chamber (36) is high and has a high energy density, pressure release to the pressure reducing chamber (20) is rapid when the timing setting valve (19) is opened. Go to
The injection start command valve (21) and the inlet valve (10) are strongly and rapidly opened by the high pressure with high energy density of the valve opening pressure chamber (35). Therefore, the valve opening response speed from the start of depressurization of the valve closing pressure receiving chamber (36) to the opening of the injection start command valve (21) and the inlet valve (10) becomes very fast.

That is, when the valve is opened using the electric actuator, the energy density of the electromagnetic force generated in the electric actuator is relatively low, and the motion delay due to the static inertia of the working shaft of the electric actuator occurs. , The valve opening response speed of both valves (21) (10) becomes slow.

In comparison with this, in the present invention, the valve opening force of both valves (21) (10) has a high energy density at high pressure, and there is no motion delay due to the static inertia of the working shaft of the electric actuator. The valve opening response speeds of the injection start command valve (21) and the inlet valve (10) are very fast.

Moreover, since the timing setting valve (19) is connected to the crankshaft of the engine at high speed, the opening timing of the timing setting valve (19) is mechanically and accurately determined by the rotation angle of the crankshaft. So timing setting valve (19)
Unlike the case where the valve is opened by the electric actuator, the delay of the valve opening timing due to the operation delay time of the operation shaft of the electric actuator can be eliminated.

As described above, there is no valve opening delay of the timing setting valve (19) with respect to the rotation angle of the crankshaft, and the valve opening response speed of the injection start command valve (21) and the inlet valve (10) described above becomes very fast. As a result, the maximum rotation speed of the engine is released from the restriction due to the operation delay time of the electric actuator, so that the engine can be rotated at sufficiently high speed.

(D) Simplified configuration and improved durability Electric actuator for controlling the opening and closing of the timing setting valve (19), injection start command valve (21) and inlet valve (10) The control device and the battery for supplying electric power to these are unnecessary, and the configuration thereof can be simplified.

Moreover, it is possible to completely eliminate the occurrence of defective fuel injection due to malfunction or failure of the electric actuator, the electric control device for driving and controlling the electric actuator, and the durability is excellent.

(E) Ensuring ignition injection even under no load or low load Fig. 6 is a pressure change curve diagram showing that fuel injection for ignition is performed even when the engine is unloaded or low load. It is a figure equivalent to the VI section of a figure.

Hereinafter, description will be given with reference to FIGS. 6 and 1.

In FIG. 6, over the period of time (c)-(i),
After the fuel injection pump (6) is discharged, the timing setting valve (19) is opened at the valve opening time point (j), so that the pressure of each part changes as follows.

(A) Pressure change at full load When the engine load is at full load, the pressure changes as shown by the thin solid line diagram.

Between the time points (c) and (d), since the inlet valve (10) is open, the fuel discharged from the fuel injection pump (6) is pressed into the pressure receiving chamber (36) from the inlet valve (10). . At this time,
Since the injection start command valve (21) is also open, fuel is also injected into the injection start decompression chamber (22). Thus, from the pressure of the pressure receiving chamber (36) (P ₀₎ · Pressure in the valve closing pressure chamber (12) (P ₁₎ · and injection start decompression chamber pressure (22) (P ₄₎ is (p ₁₁₎ Rise to (p ₁₂ ). At this point (d), the inlet valve (1
0) is closed by the pressure (P ₀ ) of the pressure receiving chamber (36), and the pressure receiving chamber (3
The increase in pressure (P ₀ ) in 6) stops at (p ₁₂ ).

Since the injection start command valve (21) is still open between the time points (d) and (f), the pressure (P ₄ ) of the injection start decompression chamber (22) changes from (p ₁₂ ) to (p ₁₄ ). Rise to. At this time (f), the injection start command valve (21) is closed at the pressure (P ₀ ) in the pressure receiving chamber (36), and the pressure (P ₄ ) in the injection start decompression chamber (22) rises (p _14). ) To stop.

The fuel discharged from the fuel injection pump (6) is pressed into the fuel pressure accumulating storage chamber (14) between time points (e) and (i).
Pressure (P ₁ ) of valve closing pressure chamber (12) and fuel pressure accumulating chamber (1
The pressure (P ₂ ) of 4) rises from (p ₁₃ ) to (p ₁₆ ).

When the timing setting valve (19) is opened at the time point (j), the pressure (P ₀ ) in the pressure receiving chamber (36) is released to the pressure reducing chamber (20) via the timing setting valve (19), so that the injection start command valve (21) is opened, the pressure (P ₁ ) in the valve closing pressure chamber (12) is released to the injection decompression chamber (22), and (p ₁₆ ) to (p ₁₇ )
The pressure drops to. Pressure of closed valve chamber (12) (P ₁ )
At the time point (k) where the injection starting pressure reduction range (pd ₀ ) decreases from (p ₁₆ ), the valve closing force of the injection valve (15) becomes weaker than the valve opening force and the injection valve (15) opens. Valve, and injection of ignition fuel begins.

In addition, the pressure reduction range for starting the injection (pd ₀ ) is the same as the injection valve (15).
Corresponds to the value of the valve closing force that the tension of the valve closing spring (43) bears.

(B) Pressure change at no load / low load When the engine load is no load, the pressure changes as shown by the thick solid line.

Since the inlet valve (10) is open between the time points (c) and (d ₁ ), the fuel discharged from the fuel injection pump (6) is pressed into the pressure receiving chamber (36) from the inlet valve (10). It At this time,
Since the injection start command valve (21) is also open, fuel is also injected into the injection start decompression chamber (22). Thus, the pressure of the pressure receiving chamber (36) (P ₀₎ of the-valve closing pressure chamber (12) (P _1), and injection start pressure reducing chamber (22) pressure (P _4), (p ₁₁₎
To (p ₁₂ ). At this point (d ₁ ), the inlet valve (1
0) is closed by the pressure (P ₀ ) of the pressure receiving chamber (36), and the pressure receiving chamber (3
The increase in pressure (P ₀ ) in 6) stops at (p ₁₂ ).

Since the injection start command valve (21) is still open between the time points (d ₁ ) and (f ₁ ), the pressure (P ₄ ) in the injection start decompression chamber (22) changes from (p ₁₂ ) to (p ₁₄ ). ). At this time (f ₁ ), the injection start command valve (21) is closed by the pressure (P ₀ ) in the pressure receiving chamber (36) and the pressure (P ₄ ) in the injection start decompression chamber (22) rises (p _14). ) To stop.

The fuel discharged from the fuel injection pump (6) from the time point (e ₁ ) to (i) is press-fitted into the fuel pressure accumulating storage chamber (14).
Pressure (P ₁ ) of valve closing pressure chamber (12) and fuel pressure accumulating chamber (1
The pressure (P ₂ ) of 4) rises from (p ₁₃ ) to (p ₂₆ ).

When the timing setting valve (19) is opened at the time point (j), the pressure (P ₀ ) in the pressure receiving chamber (36) is released to the pressure reducing chamber (20) via the timing setting valve (19), so that the injection start command valve (21) is pushed open by the pressure of the valve-opening pressure chamber (35) (P ₀ '), escapes closed chamber (12) of the pressure (P ₁₎ is injection start pressure reducing chamber (22) , The pressure drops. When the pressure decrease width exceeds the injection start pressure reduction width (pd ₀ ), the ignition fuel is injected, but when it does not exceed the injection start pressure reduction width, the ignition fuel injection is not performed. This is described in (B1) and (B
2) The explanation is given separately for each item of (B3).

(B1) No throttle passage (60) No. 1 (No ignition fuel injection when no load is applied) When the throttle passage (60) before the present invention is not provided, it is as follows. .

At the above time point (f ₁ ), the injection start command valve (21) is closed,
The pressure in the decompression chamber (22) for injection start (P ₄ ) rises (p ₁₄ )
Since the injection start decompression chamber (22) is kept airtight after stopping at, the pressure (P ₄ ) of the injection start decompression chamber (22) is as shown by the broken line diagram (P _4a ) (p ₁₄ a). ).

Then, at the time (j), the injection start command valve (21) is opened, the pressure in the valve closing pressure chamber (12) is released to the injection starting pressure reducing chamber (22), and the valve closing pressure chamber (12) is closed. The pressure (P ₁ ) decreases from (p ₂₆ ) to (p ₂₇ ). This pressure drop width (pd ₁ ) does not exceed the injection start depressurization width (pd ₀ ), so the injection valve (15)
The valve closing force of is not lower than the valve opening force, the injection valve (15) is not opened, and the fuel for ignition is not injected.

(B2) No throttle passage (60) No. 2 (Minimum load required for ignition fuel injection) Ignition fuel injection without "throttle passage (60)" before the present invention to the pressure (P ₁₎ of the closing chamber (12) and the fuel accumulator storage chamber (14) of the pressure (P ₂₎ is (p ₃₆₎ requires partial load of the engine to meet to rise to Is.

The reason is that when the injection start command valve (21) is opened at time (j) and the pressure (P ₁ ) of the valve closing pressure chamber (12) is released to the injection start decompression chamber (22), This is because the pressure decrease width (pd ₂ ) of the pressure (P ₁ ) in the valve closing pressure chamber (12) exceeds the injection start depressurization width (pd ₀ ).

Therefore, the fuel for ignition is not injected in the low load region where the partial load of the engine is smaller than the above partial load.

(B3) When the throttle passage (60) is provided = the present invention (ensures fuel injection for ignition even when there is no load or low load) When the "throttle passage (60)" of the present invention is provided, it is as follows. .

When the engine is unloaded, the injection start command valve (21) closes at time (f ₁ ) and the pressure (P ₄ ) in the injection start decompression chamber (22) stops increasing. After this, the decompression chamber (2
The pressure (P ₄ ) of 2) passes through the throttle passage (60) and the pressure receiving chamber (3
This pressure (P ₄ ) is a thick solid line (P
_As shown in ₄ b), it decreases from (p ₁₄ ) to (p ₁₂ ).

Then, at the time point (j), the injection start command valve (21) is opened, the pressure (P ₁ ) of the valve closing pressure chamber (12) is released to the injection start decompression chamber (22), and from (p ₂₆ ). The pressure drops to (p ₂₈ ). Since the pressure drop width (pd ₃ ) at this time exceeds the injection start depressurization width (pd ₀ ), this time point (k) is exceeded.
Thus, the valve closing force of the injection valve (15) becomes weaker than the valve opening force, the injection valve (15) is opened, and the fuel for ignition is injected.

Thus, in the present invention, even under no load or low load,
Since the fuel injection for ignition is secured, during the ignition delay period immediately after the fuel injection for ignition, the pressure increase rate of the combustion gas during the explosive combustion period becomes lower due to the decrease in the fuel injection amount, resulting in the occurrence of a diesel knock. It is possible to prevent the noise and reduce the driving noise.

<Example 1> An example of the present invention will be described below with reference to Figs.

FIG. 1 is an equivalent circuit diagram of a pressure-accumulation fuel injection device for a diesel engine according to the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a vertical cross-sectional view of a unit injector used in the fuel injection device in an initial state. FIG. 4 is a vertical cross-sectional view of the main part of the unit injector when the injection start command valve is opened, and FIG. 4 is a timing diagram for explaining the operation of the unit injector and the injection start command means.

The unit injector U includes an edge filter 27,
A fuel injection pump 6 and an accumulator fuel injector 7 are incorporated.

The pressure-accumulation fuel injection device for a diesel engine further includes an injection control device that controls the fuel injection start timing and injection characteristics of the pressure-accumulation fuel injector 7, and this injection control device will be described later. It is provided across the metering unit M and the unit injector U.

The fuel system that supplies fuel to the pressure-accumulation fuel injector 7 regulates the pressure of the fuel pumped from the fuel tank 1 by the fuel pump 2 by the pressure regulator 3 so as to increase or decrease in direct proportion to the engine speed, for example. The amount of fuel supplied by the pressure device 3 is adjusted by the amount adjusting device 4 so as to increase or decrease in direct proportion to, for example, the load of the engine, and then the pressure pump 5 supplies the fuel injection pump 6 via the edge filter 27. It is configured to be pressure-fed, to be pressurized to a high pressure of, for example, 700 to 1200 atm by the fuel injection pump 6, and to be press-fitted into the pressure accumulating fuel injector 7.

As shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 3, the fuel injection pump 6 is
Is separated from the upper surface (right surface in FIG. 2) of the body 23 of the unit injector U into a plunger insertion hole 24 which is recessed, and is divided by the plunger 8 below the plunger insertion hole 24. Pump room 9 and
An inlet valve 10 is provided.

The inlet valve 10 can be provided independently of the plunger 8, but in this case, it is incorporated in the plunger 8 in order to reduce the size of the unit injector U. That is, a substantially cylindrical valve chamber 28 whose upper end and lower end are slightly expanded is formed inside the plunger 8, and a spool 29 is slidably fitted in the valve chamber 28. . This spool 29
Is a hollow cylinder with a closed top,
The reference numeral 32 indicates the edge filter 27 side (upstream side) at all times via the inlet passage portion 31 that penetrates the intermediate height portion of the peripheral wall of the spool 29 and the inlet passage portion 30 that penetrates the intermediate height portion of the peripheral wall of the plunger 8. ). The inlet valve 10 includes an inlet valve hole 33 formed in the lower half portion of the peripheral wall of the spool 29 and an outlet 34 formed in the lower half portion of the peripheral wall of the plunger 8, so that the spool 29 is slightly smaller than the top dead center. The inlet valve hole 33 communicates with the outlet 34 to open the valve when the height is lower than a predetermined height, and the inlet valve hole 33 is shut off from the outlet 34 and closed when the spool 29 is positioned higher than that. Like so.

Inside the valve chamber 28, there is a valve-opening pressure chamber 35 in the upper part and a pressure-accumulating chamber 36 for adjusting the plunger stroke in the lower part.
It is divided by each. And spool 29
Is urged in the valve closing direction by the internal pressure P _{0 of} the hollow portion 32 communicating with the upstream side of the inlet valve 10 and the pressure accumulating chamber 36, and the internal pressure of the valve opening pressure chamber 35.
It is biased in the valve opening direction by p ₀ ′. The valve opening pressure chamber 35 has a hollow portion formed by a communication hole 37 formed in an upper portion of the peripheral wall of the spool 29 when the spool 29 is located at the top dead center.
When the spool 29 is located at the bottom dead center, the spool 29 is communicated with the hollow portion 32 through the communication hole 37 and the passage 38 formed in the upper portion of the peripheral wall of the plunger 8. Made of

An injection pipe insertion hole 25 is formed in the body 23 of the unit injector U in parallel with the plunger insertion hole 24, and the injection pipe 26 of the accumulator fuel injector 7 is fitted and supported in the injection pipe insertion hole 25. .

In the lower half of the injection pipe 26, the valve closing pressure chamber 12 and the check valve chamber
39 and a part of the fuel pressure accumulating chamber 14 (hereinafter referred to as the first fuel pressure accumulating chamber) 14a are formed in series in a line coaxially in the vertical direction.
The valve seat surface 40 of the injection valve 15 is formed on the peripheral surface of the left end portion in the drawing).

The valve stem 42 of the injection valve 15 penetrates the first fuel storage chamber 14a, the check valve chamber 39 and the valve closing pressure chamber 12, and the upper end portion is formed in the upper half of the injection pipe 26. It is made to rush into the valve closing spring chamber 41.

The valve 13a of the check valve 13 is slidably fitted in the check valve chamber 39 interposed between the valve closing pressure chamber 12 and the first fuel storage pressure injection chamber 14a. A valve closing spring 13c upwardly biases a valve seat 13b formed of a diameter-increased portion formed at an intermediate height of the valve stem 42 of the injection valve 15. Therefore, the valve body 13a of the check valve 13 is urged to open by the internal pressure of the valve closing pressure chamber 12 (= the internal pressure P ₁ of the pump chamber 9) and closed by the internal pressure P _{2 of} the first fuel storage injection chamber 14a. The valve is opened, and the fuel is injected by the fuel injection pump 6 to open the valve only when the internal pressure P ₁ of the valve closing pressure chamber 12 exceeds the internal pressure P ₂ of the first fuel storage pressure injection chamber 14a.

An injection valve is provided inside the valve closing spring chamber 41 through the valve stem 42.
A valve closing spring 43 for urging 15 in the valve closing direction is inserted.

Therefore, the injection valve 15 is biased in the valve closing direction by the biasing force of the valve closing spring 43 and the internal pressure P ₁ of the valve closing pressure chamber 12, and is opened by the internal pressure P _{2 of} the first fuel storage chamber 14a. After the fuel supply from the fuel injection pump 6 is completed and the check valve 13 is closed, the internal pressure P ₁ of the valve closing pressure chamber 12 is reduced and the valve closing force is increased. If it becomes smaller than the valve force, it will be opened.

The upper end of the valve closing spring chamber 41 is closed by a spring seat 44 that sets the urging force of the valve closing spring 43 and a valve opening restrictor 45 that sets the maximum valve opening amount of the injection valve 15. The lower end of 41 is communicated with the valve opening pressure chamber 35 of the inlet valve 10 via a pressure transmission passage 46 and a passage 38 formed in the plunger 8. Further, a cap 47 that covers the spring seat 44 and the valve opening restrictor 45 is screwed onto the upper end portion of the injection pipe 26. The cap 47 and the spring seat
A space 48 formed between the valve opening limiter 45 and the valve opening limiter 45 communicates with the valve closing spring chamber 41 via a communication passage 49 provided in the valve opening limiter 45. With this structure, the space 48 formed between the cap 47, the spring seat 44, and the valve opening restrictor 45 is closed together with the valve closing spring chamber 41 in the valve opening pressure chamber 35 of the inlet valve 10.
It plays the role of a valve-opening pressure stabilization accumulator that absorbs the sudden pressure fluctuations.

The remaining portion of the fuel pressure accumulating chamber 14 (hereinafter referred to as the second fuel pressure accumulating chamber) 14b is formed in an annular shape over the intermediate height portion of the injection pipe 26 and the body 23 portion around it.
The second fuel pressure accumulating storage chamber 14b is provided with a check valve 50 and a pressure setting valve 5
It is connected via 1 to the first fuel pressure accumulator and injection chamber 14a.

This check valve 50 has the _second internal pressure P ₂ of the first fuel pressure accumulating injection chamber 14a
When the pressure becomes higher than the residual pressure of the fuel pressure accumulating chamber 14b (for example, about 700 atm), the valve is opened to move from the first fuel pressure accumulating injection chamber 14a
It is configured to allow the fuel to flow into the fuel pressure accumulating storage chamber 14b and prevent the backflow from the second fuel pressure accumulating storage chamber 14b to the first fuel pressure accumulating injection chamber 14a. In addition, the pressure setting valve
The valve 51 opens when the internal pressure P ₃ of the second fuel pressure accumulating chamber 14b rises above a predetermined residual pressure to open the flow of fuel between the second fuel pressure accumulating chamber 14b and the first fuel pressure accumulating chamber 14a. acceptable, so that the internal pressure P ₃ of the second fuel accumulator reservoir 14b is pressure P ₃ of the is reduced to a predetermined residual pressure second fuel accumulator reservoir 14b is closed so as not to fall below a predetermined residual pressure Made of

Now, as shown in FIG. 1, the injection control device has an injection start command valve 21 incorporated in the unit injector U.
Further, it is provided with an injection start decompression chamber 22 and an injection start command means 18 incorporated in the metering unit M.

The injection start command valve 21 is, as shown in FIG. 2 and FIG.
It has a valve chamber 28 and a spool 29 which are common to the inlet valve 10 of the fuel injection pump 6. That is, the injection start command valve 21 is provided with the injection start depressurizing passage 52 for communicating the pump chamber 9 and the valve chamber 28 below the outlet 34 of the inlet valve of the peripheral wall of the plunger 8.
And a valve groove 53 that is recessed over the entire circumference in the peripheral surface portion of the spool 29 below the inlet valve hole 33, and the inlet valve 10 that is lower than the top dead center of the spool 29 is opened and closed. When the spool 29 is positioned at a height within a predetermined range including the position of the spool 29, the injection depressurizing passage 52 and the valve groove 53
And are communicated with each other so that the valve is opened.

The injection starting decompression chamber 22 is provided between the inner peripheral surface of the plunger insertion hole 24 and the outer peripheral surface of the plunger 8 by recessing the outer peripheral surface of the peripheral wall portion of the plunger 8 facing the injection starting decompression passage 52. The pressure reducing passage formed in the peripheral wall portion of the plunger 8 facing the injection starting pressure reducing passage 52.
It communicates with the valve chamber 28 via 54. The injection start decompression chamber 22 communicates with the pump chamber 9 through the decompression passage 54, the valve groove 53 and the injection start decompression passage 52 when the injection start decompression passage 52 and the valve groove 53 communicate with each other. Like so. Further, the injection starting decompression chamber 22 is always communicated with the hollow portion 32 of the spool 29 via the minute passage 60 formed in the peripheral wall of the plunger 8 and the communication passage 61 formed in the peripheral wall of the spool 29. ing.

As shown in FIG. 1, the injection start command means 18 includes an inlet valve 10
Timing setting valve 19 and decompression chamber connected in sequence upstream of the
20 is provided, and the decompression chamber 20 is communicated with the upstream side of the inlet valve 10 when the timing setting valve 19 is opened at a predetermined crankshaft angle in conjunction with a crankshaft (not shown). . The timing setting valve 19 includes an advance control valve 19a for advancing or delaying the injection start timing according to the engine speed, and an advance control valve 1a within the advance range.
It is composed of a main timing setting valve 19b connecting the inlet valve 10 and the valve 9a. As shown in FIG. 1, the advance control valve 19a is composed of a hydraulically operated spool valve, and the spool valve element 72 in the valve box 71 is pushed upward by a counterbalancing spring 73 and is elastically pressed. On the other hand, the fuel pressure in the hydraulic pressure operating chamber 74 is pushed down and pressurized toward the advance side, and is configured to be adjustable up and down to a position where the pushing down pressure and the pushing up elastic force are balanced. There is.

On the inlet side of the valve box 71, from the top, the retard side valve inlet 75
・ Intermediate timing valve inlet 76 ・ and advance side valve inlet 77 open,
A valve outlet 78 opens on the outlet side of the valve box 71. Spool disc
A spool valve body passage 79 is formed in 72 in a transverse shape. The spool valve body passage 79 has the retard side valve inlet 75 on the inlet side.
The intermediate timing valve inlet 76 and the advance side valve inlet 77 are selectively opened, whereas the outlet side is always communicated with the decompression chamber 20 via the valve outlet 78.

The hydraulic pressure working chamber 74 communicates with the outlet side of the pressure regulator 3 via a pressure communication passage 90. Since the rotation speed of the engine increases from low speed to medium speed, the fuel pressure on the outlet side of the pressure regulator 3 increases from low pressure to medium pressure to high pressure, and the spool valve element 72 moves to the hydraulic pressure operating chamber 74. The operating pressure causes the spool valve disc passage 79 to advance from the retard side valve inlet 75 through the intermediate timing valve inlet 76 by moving from the upper retard side position through the intermediate height position to the lower advance side position. It is configured to communicate with the corner side valve inlet 77.

The main timing setting valve 19b is composed of a rotary valve and has a valve box 8
The rotary valve body 89 is configured to rotate in the clockwise direction in conjunction with the crankshaft of the engine within 8.

A valve inlet 83 is opened at the inlet side of the valve box 88, and an advance side valve outlet 84 and an intermediate timing valve outlet 85 are sequentially provided at the outlet side from the upper side to the lower side in the rotating direction of the rotary valve body 89.・ And the retard side valve outlet 86 opens.

When the rotation angle of the crankshaft of the engine reaches the fuel injection start timing, the rotary valve body passage 87 of the rotary valve body 89 continues to communicate with the valve inlet 83 for a while at its inlet side, whereas it does not reach its outlet side. The advance side valve outlet 84, the intermediate timing valve outlet 85, and the retard side valve outlet 86 are sequentially communicated with each other.

The injection start command means 18 configured as described above is for closing the valve closing pressure chamber 12 by opening the rotary valve body 89 when the rotation angle of the engine crankshaft reaches the fuel injection start timing. By releasing the pressure P ₁ to the decompression chamber 20 via the inlet valve 10, the main timing setting valve 19b, and the advance control valve 19a,
The valve closing pressure P ₁ of the injection valve 15 of the pressure accumulation type fuel injector 7 is weakened, and the injection valve 15 is opened at the valve opening pressure P 2 due to the fuel accumulation pressure in the fuel pressure accumulation chamber 14 The fuel accumulated in the storage chamber 14 starts to be injected from the injection port 16 into the combustion chamber.

In this way, by opening the rotary valve body 89, the injection valve
When opening 15 to start fuel injection,
First of all, when the engine is rotating at high speed, the fuel pressure at the outlet of the pressure regulator 3 becomes high, so that the pressure in the hydraulic pressure working chamber 74 becomes high and the spool valve body 72 is moved to the advanced position. It is pushed down to open the spool valve disc passage 79 to the advance side valve disc inlet 77.

Therefore, when the rotation angle of the rotary valve body 89 reaches an early timing in the variable region of the fuel injection start timing, that is, the advance timing, and the rotary valve body passage 87 is opened to the advance side valve outlet 84. Then, the valve closing pressure P ₁ of the valve closing pressure chamber 12 escapes to the pressure reducing chamber 20 via the rotary valve body passage 87, the advance side valve outlet 84, the advance side valve inlet 77, and the spool valve body passage 79. The pressure is reduced and the pressure is reduced. As a result, the fuel injection timing is advanced to the advance timing.

Secondly, on the contrary, when the engine is rotating at a low speed, the fuel pressure at the outlet of the pressure regulator 3 becomes low, so that the pressure in the hydraulic working chamber 74 becomes low, and the spool valve element 72
Is pushed up to the retard position by the balance spring 73, and the spool valve body passage 79 communicates with the retard side valve inlet 75.

Therefore, the rotary valve body passage 87 cannot communicate with the spool valve body passage 79 when it first communicates with the advance side valve outlet 84, and cannot communicate with the spool valve body passage 79 when it reaches the intermediate timing valve outlet 85 next. And, the communication is established only when the retard side valve outlet 86 is reached. As a result, the fuel injection timing is delayed to the retarded timing.

And third, when the engine is rotating at medium speed,
By operating in the same manner as in the case of the low speed rotation, the fuel injection timing is adjusted and controlled to the intermediate timing.

Further, the injection start command means 18 includes a timing setting valve.
Exhaust return passage connecting decompression chamber 20 and inlet valve 10 in parallel with 19
55 is provided, and the discharge setting valve 19 that is once opened is shut off in the discharge returning passage 55, and a discharge returning valve 56 that is opened at a predetermined timing after the end of fuel injection is interposed.

A fuel supply valve 57 is interposed between the pressure feed pump 5 of the fuel supply system and the edge filter 27, and between the outlet of the pressure regulator 3 of the fuel supply system and the edge filter 27. An initial pressure adjusting pressure transmission path 58 that connects the outlet of the pressure adjusting device 3 to the upstream side of the edge filter 27 is connected in parallel with the pressure adjusting device 4, the pressure feed pump 5, and the fuel supply valve 57. An on-off valve 59 that is opened when the fuel injection ends and the fuel injection device returns to the initial state is interposed in the initial pressure adjusting pressure transmission path 58.

The fuel supply valve 57, the timing setting valve 19, and the discharge return valve 56 described above.
Although the on-off valve 59 and the on-off valve 59 may be provided separately, each of these valves is opened and closed by a predetermined crankshaft, and therefore, as one combined timing control valve having a common rotary valve body linked to the crankshaft. It is possible to configure.

Next, the operation of the fuel injection device will be described focusing on the operation of the unit injector U and the injection control device.

(A) Initial state In the initial state, the fuel supply valve 57, the timing setting valve 19, the discharge return valve 56, and the opening / closing valve 59 are all closed, and as shown in FIG. 2, the plunger 8 of the fuel injection pump 6 is closed. Is located at the top dead center, and the spool 29 is located at the bottom dead center. Therefore, the inlet valve 10 is opened and the injection start command valve 21 is closed. The check valve 13 is closed by the valve closing spring 13c, and the injection valve 15 is closed by the valve closing spring 43. Further, the check valve 50 and the pressure setting valve 51 of the fuel pressure accumulating chamber 14 are both closed.

Further, in the initial state, the valve opening pressure chamber 35, the valve closing spring chamber 41, and the space 48 in the cap 47, which communicate with the hollow portion 32 of the inlet valve 10.
Pressure P ₀ 'and the internal pressure P ₀ of the accumulator 36, the internal pressure P ₄ of the injection start pressure reducing chamber 22, the valve closing pressure chamber of the pump chamber 9 and an accumulator fuel injector 7
The internal pressure P ₁ of 12 is equal to a predetermined initial pressure. Check valve
The internal pressure P ₂ of the first fuel pressure storage chamber 14a on the downstream side of 13 is equal to the residual pressure at the end of injection (internal pressure when the injection valve 15 is closed),
The internal pressure P ₃ of the fuel pressure accumulating / storing chamber 14b is the closing pressure of the pressure setting valve 51 (for example, 700 atm).

(B) Fuel supply process (fuel supply to the injection pump 6) The supply of fuel to the fuel injection pump 6 is started in FIG. 4a.
At a time point (hereinafter, simply referred to as time point a and the same applies to each time point shown in FIG. 4 thereafter), the fuel supply valve 57 is switched from the closed state to the open state, and the pressure pump 5 to the fuel injection pump 6 are switched.
The fuel whose pressure has been regulated and which has been regulated is pumped. This fuel is first pressed into the pressure accumulating chamber 36 via the inlet passage portions 30 and 31 and the hollow portion 32 to move the spool 29 to the top dead center side.

When the engine is started, under full load or under heavy load, the maximum injection amount of fuel is pumped from the pump 5 and the spool 29 is moved to the top dead center.
Is moved to an intermediate position between the bottom dead center and the top dead center, and the fuel supply valve 57 is closed at time b when the injection of fuel into the fuel injection pump 6 is completed.

At this point in time b, the internal pressure P ₁ of the hoop chamber 9 and the internal pressure of the pressure accumulating chamber 36
Although P ₀ and pressure P ₀ of the valve-opening pressure chamber 35 that is against the internal pressure P ₀ of the accumulator 36 'is increased from the initial pressure, than the internal pressure P ₂ of the first fuel injection accumulator 14a low pressure Therefore, the check valve 13 cannot be opened.

(C) Fuel injection stroke (fuel injection into the pressure-accumulation fuel injector 7) From this time point, the plunger 8 is pushed down from the top dead center by a cam (not shown) from the time point c to the time point i. The internal pressure P ₁ of the pump chamber 9 and the internal pressure P ₀ of the pressure accumulating chamber 36 are further increased from the time point c, and the spool 29 is further raised to press the fuel into the pressure accumulating chamber 36 from the pump chamber 9 and eventually the spool 29 at the time point d. Is raised to a predetermined height near the top dead center and the inlet valve 10
Will be closed. After this time d, the internal pressure P _{1 of the} pump chamber 9 is increased until time i when the plunger 8 reaches the bottom dead center.
Is further increased, and the fuel in the pump chamber 9 is pressed into the pressure-accumulation fuel injector 7.

Here, since the volume of the pressure accumulating chamber 36 that is expanded from the time point a to the time point d when the inlet valve 10 is closed is made equal to the maximum injection amount, the pump chamber 9 can be used between the time point c and the time point d. Therefore, the amount of fuel injected into the pressure accumulating chamber 36 corresponds to the difference between the maximum injection amount and the fuel supply amount injected into the pressure accumulating chamber 36 from the time point a to the time point b. Further, since the volume of the pump chamber 9 which is reduced by moving the plunger 8 from the top dead center to the bottom dead center is equal to the maximum injection amount, after the time point d until the time point i when the plunger 8 reaches the bottom dead point. The amount of fuel injected into the accumulator fuel injector 7 from the pump chamber 9 is the maximum injection amount and c
It corresponds to the difference from the amount of fuel press-fitted from the pump chamber 9 into the pressure accumulating chamber 36 between time point e and time point e, that is, the fuel supply amount from the pressure feed pump 5.

In addition, the internal pressure of the injection start decompression chamber 22 from the time point a to the time point d is such that the injection start decompression chamber 22 is in the pump chamber through the minute passage 60, the communication passage 61 hollow portion 32 and the inlet valve 10 before the time point d. Since it is communicated with 9, the internal pressures P ₀ and P ₁ of the pressure accumulating chamber 36 and the pump chamber 9 that change relatively slowly change.

After the time point d, the internal pressure P ₁ of the pump chamber 9 and the valve closing pressure chamber 12 rapidly increases, and exceeds the internal pressure P ₂ of the first fuel pressure accumulating and storing chamber 14a from the time point e, the time point i when the plunger 8 reaches the bottom dead center. The check valve 13 is opened over, and the fuel is press-fitted into the first fuel pressure accumulation chamber 14a. Further, at the time h when the fuel pressure P ₁ (here, P ₂ ) from the pump chamber 9 to the first fuel pressure accumulating storage chamber 14a exceeds the set pressure of the pressure setting valve 51, the check valve 50 is opened and the check valve 50 is opened. Fuel is press-fitted from the first fuel pressure storage chamber 14a into the second fuel pressure storage chamber 14b.

The injection start command valve 21 is opened before the time point d, and
Since the inlet valve 10 is closed at this point, the internal pressure P _{1 of the} pump chamber 9
Injection start command valve 2 from pump chamber 9
1. A very small amount of fuel leaks into the hollow portion 32 of the spool 29 and the pressure accumulating chamber 36 through the injection starting pressure reducing chamber 22, the minute passage 60 and the communication passage 61, and this fuel causes the pressure accumulating chamber 36 and the hollow portion 32 to leak.
The internal pressure P ₀ is slightly increased, and the spool 29 is further pushed up from the position at the time point d. Then, the injection start command valve 21 is closed at a time point f slightly before the spool 29 reaches the top dead center.

What is important is that the injection-starting decompression chamber 22 has a hollow portion 32 of the spool 29 via a decompression passage D including a minute passage 60 and a communication passage 61.
And the pressure accumulating chamber 36, the fuel in the injection starting depressurizing chamber 22 is then transferred from the injection starting depressurizing chamber 22 to the hollow portion 32 of the spool 29 and the accumulating chamber 36 via the depressurizing path D. When the fuel flows in, the internal pressure P _{4 of} the injection start decompression chamber 22 becomes
Compared to the internal pressure of 12, the hollow part 32 and the accumulator which have much lower pressure
It is to be reduced until it becomes the same as the internal pressure P _{0 of} 36. In addition, from the injection decompression chamber 22 to the hollow portion 32 and the pressure accumulating chamber 36.
The inflow of fuel into the spool 29 pushes the spool 29 up to the top dead center.

The injection of fuel from the fuel injection pump 6 into the fuel injector 7 is completed at time i when the plunger 8 reaches the bottom dead center, and the check valves 13 and 50 are closed.

(D) Ignition fuel injection stroke At a predetermined time j after this, the timing setting valve 19 of the injection start command means 18 is opened and the decompression chamber 20 is connected to the upstream side of the inlet valve 10. Thereby, the hollow portion 32 of the inlet valve 10 and the accumulator chamber
The internal pressure of 36 is reduced, the spool 29 starts to descend from the top dead center, and the injection start command valve 21 is opened at time k when the spool 29 descends to a predetermined position slightly below the top dead center. The control delay time from the opening of the timing setting valve 19 to the opening of the injection start command valve 21 is the initial pressure of the decompression chamber 20 (timing setting valve
It becomes constant if the internal pressure before opening valve 19) is constant. By opening the injection start command valve 21, the pump chamber 9 and the valve closing pressure chamber
The internal pressure P _{1 of} 12 is suddenly released into the injection decompression chamber 22,
Internal pressure P _{2 of} the first fuel pressure accumulating chamber 14a (= P ₃ at this point)
Internal pressure P ₁ of the valve closing pressure chamber 12 and valve closing spring
When the valve closing force consisting of the urging force of 43 becomes weak, the injection valve 15
Is opened.

What should be noted here is that the injection start command valve 21 and the injection start pressure reducing chamber 22 are assembled in the plunger 8 of the fuel injection pump 6 so that they are sequentially connected to the valve closing pressure chamber 12 of the pressure accumulating fuel injector 7. The injection start command valve 21 and the injection start depressurization chamber 22 are arranged close to the valve closing pressure chamber 12 of the pressure accumulating fuel injector 7, and the distance from the valve closing pressure chamber 12 to the injection start depressurization chamber 22 is as long as possible. That is to be shortened. When the distance from the valve closing pressure chamber 12 to the injection start decompression chamber 22 is shortened in this way, the resistance of the flow path from the injection start command valve 21 to the injection start decompression chamber 22 becomes small, and the injection start command valve 21 opens. The pressure reduction gradient of the valve closing pressure chamber 12 after the valve can be made steep. As a result, the control sensitivity can be made sensitive, the range of variation in the valve opening start timing of the injection valve 15 can be reduced, and the control accuracy of the injection start timing can be improved.

The depressurization here is a decompression chamber for injection start, which has a relatively small volume.
Since the pressure is released to 22, the amount of fuel with which the internal pressure P ₁ of the valve closing pressure chamber 12 is depressurized is relatively small, and therefore the valve opening amount of the injection valve 15 is also suppressed to a small amount, and the fuel injection rate is small. It can be suppressed.

However, another thing to note here is that the internal pressure P ₄ of the injection start decompression chamber 22 is compared with the internal pressure of the valve closing pressure chamber 12 before the injection of fuel into the pressure accumulating fuel injector 7 is completed. Then, the internal pressure P ₀ of the hollow portion 32 and the pressure accumulating chamber 36, which has a much lower pressure, is reduced to the same _value . As a result, even when the internal pressure P ₁ of the valve closing pressure chamber 12 is relatively low in the low load region, the internal pressure of the valve closing pressure chamber 12 when the injection start command valve 21 is opened.
The pressure difference between P ₁ and the internal pressure P ₄ of the injection start decompression chamber 22 is sufficiently large to ensure that the injection start command valve 21 is opened and the valve closing pressure chamber 12 is closed.
The internal pressure P _{1 of the} is reduced sufficiently and the injection valve 15 is opened.

Internal pressure P _{1 of} pump chamber 9 and valve closing pressure chamber 12 and decompression chamber for starting injection
When the internal pressure P _{4 of} 22 becomes equal, the injection start decompression chamber 22 and the hollow portion 32 are communicated by the minute passage 60 and the communication passage 61, so that the internal pressure P ₁ (= P ₄ ) of these is gradually reduced. It On the other hand, the pressure reduction of the internal pressure P ₂ of the first fuel pressure accumulating and storing chamber 14a due to the fuel injection is more rapid than the pressure reduction of the internal pressure P ₁ of the valve closing pressure chamber 12, and the difference between the valve opening force and the valve closing force is The valve opening amount of the injection valve 15 decreases from the maximum point m, and eventually the injection valve 15 is closed once at the point n to interrupt the fuel injection. injection valve 15 at time n
Is closed, the depressurization of the first fuel pressure accumulating storage chamber 14a stops, while the pressure setting valve 51 communicates with the second fuel pressure accumulating storing chamber.
As a result of the inflow of fuel from 14b, the first fuel pressure accumulation chamber 14a
The internal pressure P _{2 of} is increased again.

(E) Main fuel injection stroke By the way, the internal pressure P ₀ of the hollow portion 32 of the inlet valve 10 and the pressure accumulating chamber 36 is continuously reduced until time j becomes equal to the internal pressure P ₀ of the pressure accumulating chamber 20. Then, the spool 29 is lowered almost independently of the fuel injection from the time point l to the time point n. When the spool 29 descends to a predetermined height lower than the top dead center, the inlet valve 10 is opened, and the pump chamber 9 and the valve closing pressure chamber 12 are decompressed via the inlet valve 10 and the timing setting valve 19. Connected to chamber 20. As a result, the pump chamber 9
Also, the internal pressure P ₁ of the valve closing pressure chamber 12 is sharply and significantly reduced, the injection valve 15 is suddenly and largely opened, and a large amount of high-pressure fuel is injected.

The injection start command valve starts at time j when the spool 29 starts descending.
The time from k to when 21 is opened and from j to the inlet valve
The time from when the valve 10 is opened to the time point o is from the inlet valve 10 to the decompression chamber.
It is constant because it is determined by the channel resistance up to 20. Further, the time from the time point k to the time point 1 at which the fuel injection is started is constant because it is determined by the flow path resistance from the valve closing pressure chamber 12 to the injection starting decompression chamber 22. Therefore,
The time from the time point l at which the ignition injection starts to the time point o at which the main injection starts becomes constant regardless of the engine speed, and by setting this time equal to the ignition delay time, the injection by the ignition injection is performed. Ignition of a small amount of injected fuel to prevent the generation of diesel knocks and reduce engine operating noise, and when the fuel injected by the ignition injection is ignited, a large amount of fuel is injected by the main injection to increase You will be able to get the output.

After the inlet valve 10 is opened, the internal pressure P ₀ of the hollow portion 32 of the inlet valve 10 and the pressure accumulating chamber 36 is further reduced, and the spool 29 is o
It continues to decline after that time. Then, the injection start command valve 21 is closed at a time point p slightly after the time point o. After time point o,
The fuel injection pressure is the same as the internal pressure P ₂ of the first fuel pressure accumulating and storing chamber 14a, and is gradually reduced. Then, the pressure setting valve 51 is closed at the time point q when the internal pressure P _{3 of} the second fuel pressure accumulating chamber 14b is reduced to the setting pressure of the pressure setting valve 51, and the depressurization of the first fuel pressure accumulating chamber 14a after this time point q is reduced. It gets even sharper. The fuel injection rate is from the time point o to the time point q.
Although the high-pressure fuel flowing out from b is injected, it rises, but after the time point q, the internal pressure P _{2 in} the first fuel pressure accumulating chamber 14a decreases sharply and the fuel injection rate decreases. Then, r time after the valve opening force pressure P ₂ is reduced in the first fuel accumulator storage chamber 14a is equal to the closing force by the injection, the internal pressure P ₂ of the first fuel accumulator storage chamber 14a is further continued injection Therefore, the valve closing force becomes stronger than the valve opening force, and the injection valve 15 moves in the valve closing direction. Then, at the time s when the internal pressure P _{2 of} the first fuel pressure accumulating and storing chamber 14a is reduced to a predetermined residual pressure, the injection valve 15 is closed and the fuel injection ends.

The internal pressure P ₁ of the pump chamber 9 is rapidly and significantly reduced after the time point o when the inlet valve 10 is opened, and becomes the same as the internal pressure P ₀ of the hollow portion 32 within a short time. Also, the injection decompression chamber 22
The internal pressure P ₄ of the same is the same as the internal pressure P ₀ of the hollow portion 32 at the time point k, but when the injection start command valve 21 is opened at the time point k, it rises very rapidly and the pump chamber 9 It becomes the same as the internal pressure P ₁ . When the inlet valve 10 is opened at the time point o, the internal pressure P ₁ of the pump chamber 9 and the internal pressure P ₄ of the injection starting decompression chamber 22 suddenly fall, but the spool 29 becomes below a predetermined height and the injection starts. After the time point p at which the command valve 21 is closed, the communication between the injection start depressurization chamber 22 and the pump chamber 9 is cut off, so that the internal pressure P ₄ of the injection start depressurization chamber 22 is set to a small passage from now on.
Pressure is gradually released into the hollow portion 32 via 60 and the communication passage 61,
Eventually, the internal pressure of the injection starting decompression chamber 22 becomes the same as the internal pressures P ₀ and P ₁ of the hollow portion 32 and the pump chamber 9. At this time, in the pressure accumulating chamber 36, the maximum amount of injection plus the amount of fuel leaking from the pump chamber 9 to the pressure accumulating chamber 36 through the injection decompression chamber 22 or the like is added to the pressure reducing chamber 20 to depressurize the fuel. The amount of fuel corresponding to the amount obtained by subtracting the amount of is left, and the spool 29 is positioned higher than the bottom dead center.

(F) Return stroke to initial state Internal pressure of the injection decompression chamber 22, hollow 32 and pump chamber 9
The plunger 8 of the fuel injection pump 6 starts to rise at a predetermined time t after P ₀ , P ₁ and P ₄ become the same, and fuel is sucked from the pressure accumulating chamber 36 into the pump chamber 9 as the plunger 8 rises. .

However, as described above, the amount of fuel stored in the pressure accumulating chamber 36 at time t is the maximum amount of fuel that is the amount of fuel leaking from the pump chamber 9 to the pressure accumulating chamber 36 via the injection starting pressure reducing chamber 22 or the like. The amount corresponds to the amount obtained by subtracting the amount of fuel depressurized in the decompression chamber 20, and is insufficient to raise the plunger 8 to the top dead center. Therefore, the discharge return valve 56 is considered to be required from time u to time v when the plunger 8 should reach the cam base of the cam, that is, from time u to time v.
The valve 8 is opened and the fuel depressurized in the pressure reducing chamber 20 is discharged back to the pressure accumulating chamber 36, whereby the plunger 8 is surely returned to the top dead center. Further, when the plunger 8 is returned to the top dead center at time v in this way, the pressure reducing chamber 20 to the pump chamber 9
During this period, the fuel corresponding to the amount leaked from the pump chamber 9 to the pressure accumulating chamber 36 via the injection starting pressure reducing chamber 22 and the like is excessively confined, so these internal pressures are at time v. Is higher than the initial pressure. So v
By opening the opening / closing valve 59 for adjusting the initial pressure from the predetermined time point w to the time point x after the time point, these internal pressures are reduced to the initial pressure.

Further, as the internal pressure of the hollow portion 32 is adjusted to a predetermined initial pressure in this way, the injection start depressurizing chamber 22 communicating with the hollow portion 32 via the communication passage 61 and the minute passage 60 is provided. The internal pressure is also adjusted to a predetermined initial pressure. As a result, the injection start command valve
The variation in the internal pressure P ₄ of the injection start decompression chamber 22 which occurs when the valve 21 is closed is ensured by opening the initial pressure adjusting on-off valve 59 from a predetermined time point w after the time point v to the time point x. The pressure is adjusted to the next value, and the next time the injection start command valve 21 is opened, the internal pressure P ₄ of the injection start decompression chamber 22 is too high and the injection valve
15 is not opened, or the internal pressure P ₄
It is possible to prevent the fuel injection amount from becoming excessive due to delay in closing the injection valve 15 due to too low.

In addition, in the above-described overall operation of the pressure-accumulation fuel injection device, during the lift-down stroke of the fuel injection cam (time tv during the return stroke (F) to the initial state in FIG. 4), the fuel injection cam If there is a gap between the fuel injection cam and the plunger 8, the fuel injection cam will move during the next lift-up stroke of the fuel injection cam (time point c-i during the fuel injection stroke (C) in FIG. 4). The impact with the plunger 8 causes adverse effects such as noise and early wear and deformation.

In order to eliminate this adverse effect, the fuel injection cam and the plunger 8
A gap is not created between the two, and one cycle of the plunger operation for this purpose will be described below based on the order of each stroke shown in FIGS. 7 (A)-(D).

(A) Initial state See FIG. 7 (A) In this initial state, the spool 29 is located at the bottom dead center D ₂ and the plunger 8 is located at the top dead center U ₁ . The inlet valve 10 is opened, the fuel supply valve 57 is closed, and the check valve 13 is pushed and closed by the internal pressure of the fuel pressure accumulation chamber 14.

The maximum ejection amount V ₀ which the fuel injection pump 6, the maximum volume V ₀ which valve-closing accumulator 36, are set to be equal values.

(B) Fuel Supply Process Refer to FIG. 7 (B) The fuel is supplied by the metering unit M in a metered supply amount V ₁ in accordance with the load of the engine.

When the fuel supply valve 57 opens, the metering supply amount V ₁ of the fuel is pushed into the valve closing pressure accumulating chamber 36 from the metering unit M, and the spool 29 moves from the bottom dead center D ₂ to the top dead center U _2. It is pushed up part way toward.

(C) Invalid discharge stroke See FIG. 7 (C). After the fuel supply valve 57 is closed, the fuel injection cam 80 enters the lift-up stroke 81 and pushes down the plunger 8. Through the valve 10, the ineffective discharge amount V _{2 is} press-fitted into the valve-closing pressure accumulating chamber 36. At this time, the check valve 13 is closed by the internal pressure of the fuel pressure storage chamber 14.

The fuel in the valve-closing pressure accumulating chamber 36 reaches the maximum volume V ₀ together with the metering supply amount V ₁ that had been contained in the fuel when the ineffective discharge amount V ₂ is completely injected. This allows the spool 29
Rises to the top dead center U ₂ , the internal pressure of the valve closing pressure accumulating chamber 36 rises to the valve closing pressure, and the inlet valve 10 is pushed and closed.

The fuel of the effective discharge amount V ₃ remaining in the pump chamber 9 is the maximum discharge amount.
An amount obtained by subtracting the invalid ejection amount V ₂ from V _0, equal to the maximum volume V ₀ disables the ejection amount V ₂ metering the amount V ₁ of minus from the valve-closing accumulator 36.

(D) Effective discharge stroke Refer to FIG. 7 (D) When the plunger 8 is further pushed down to reach the bottom dead center D ₁ , the effective discharge amount V ₃ (= metering supply amount in the pump chamber 9)
The fuel of V ₁ ) is pressed into the fuel pressure accumulating storage chamber 14 through the check valve 13.

Thereafter, the effective discharge amount V ₃ of fuel is injected from the pressure accumulation type fuel injector 7 into the combustion chamber.

(E) Plunger return stroke Refer to FIG. 7 (A) When the main timing setting valve 19b in the metering unit M is opened for a short time, the internal pressure of the valve-opening accumulator chamber 36 is slightly different from this main timing setting valve 19b. Inlet valve 1
Is pushed open by the elastic force of the valve opening pressure chamber 35.

When the fuel injection cam 80 enters the lift-down stroke 82, the fuel having the maximum volume V ₀ stored in the valve closing pressure accumulator chamber 36 passes through the inlet valve 10 by the elastic pressure of the valve opening pressure chamber 35 and the pump chamber 9 Is pressed into. As a result, the spool 29 is returned from the top dead center U ₂ to the bottom dead center D ₂ , and the plunger 8 is pressed against the fuel injection cam 80 while being returned from the bottom dead center D ₁ to the top dead center U ₁ to make contact. Therefore, there is no gap between the plunger 8 and the fuel injection cam 80.

Therefore, the lift-up stroke 81 of the next fuel injection cam 80
At the time point (c-i in FIG. 7 (C) = FIG. 4), the fuel injection cam 80 does not collide with the plunger 8.

This completes one cycle of the operation of the plunger 8.

<Embodiment 2> FIG. 5 is a vertical cross-sectional view of a main portion of another embodiment of the present invention.

In this embodiment, the injection start command valve 21 is composed of a double spool valve incorporated in the plunger 8. That is,
A child spool 62 is fitted in the lower end portion of the spool 29 so as to be able to move up and down, and the child spool 62 has a through hole 63 whose diameter is reduced at the lower end portion.
And a valve hole 64 formed so as to face each other on the peripheral wall of the large diameter portion of the through hole 63. A valve groove 53 of the injection start command valve 21 is formed on the outer peripheral surface of the peripheral wall of the reduced diameter portion of the through hole 63 over the entire circumference. On the other hand, on the peripheral wall of the lower end of the spool 29, a pair of valve holes 65, 6 communicating with the valve groove 53 when the child spool 62 rises to the top dead center.
6 is formed, and the spool 8 is formed on the plunger 8 when the spool 29 is located at a predetermined range of height slightly lower than the top dead center.
Injection start depressurization passages 52, 54 are formed to communicate with the respective valve holes 65, 66 of 29. The other structure is the same as that of the above-described embodiment, and the description thereof is omitted.

Next, the operation of this embodiment will be described focusing on the operation of the injection start command valve. Here, the description common to the above-described embodiment will be omitted as much as possible to avoid duplication.

(A) Initial state In the initial state, the fuel supply valve 57, the timing setting valve 19, the discharge return valve 56, and the opening / closing valve 59 are all closed, and the plunger 8 of the fuel injection pump 6 is located at the top dead center. Spool 29
Is located at the bottom dead center, the inlet valve 10 is opened, and the injection start command valve 21 is closed. Further, the child spool 62 is located at the bottom dead center, and the injection start decompression chamber 22 has the injection start decompression passage 5
The hollow portion 32 and the pressure accumulating chamber 36 are communicated with each other through a pressure reducing passage D formed by 4, a valve hole 66, a valve hole 64, and a through hole 63.

(B) Fuel Supply to Injection Pump 6 The fuel supplied from the pressure pump 5 after the fuel supply valve 57 is switched from the closed state to the open state is first of all the inlet passage portions 30, 31.
Also, the spool 29 is moved to the top dead center side by the fuel press-fitted into the hollow portion 32 and press-fitted into the pressure accumulating chamber 36 through the hollow portion 32 and the through hole 63. During this time, the injection start command valve 21 is on the spool.
It is opened near the top dead center of 29. The injection-starting decompression chamber 22 remains in communication with the hollow portion 32 and the pressure accumulating chamber 36.
Therefore, the internal pressure P ₄ of the injection starting decompression chamber 22 from the time point a to the time point d changes in the same manner as the internal pressures P ₀ and P ₁ of the pressure accumulating chamber 36 and the pump chamber 9 which change relatively slowly.

(C) Fuel injection into the pressure-accumulation fuel injector 7 The injection start command valve 21 is opened before the time point d,
After the inlet valve 10 is closed at time d, the internal pressure P _{1 of the} pump chamber 9
The injection start command valve 21 from the pump chamber 9 as the
Injection starting pressure reducing passage 52, valve hole 65, valve hole 64 and through hole 63
A small amount of fuel leaks into the hollow portion 32 and the pressure accumulating chamber 36 that are communicated with each other through the fuel, and the internal pressure P ₀ of the pressure accumulating chamber 36 and the hollow portion 32 is slightly increased by this fuel, so that the spool 29 is positioned higher than the position at the time point d. It is pushed up further. Then, at a time point f slightly before the spool 29 reaches the top dead center, the valve holes 65, 66 are positioned higher than the injection start depressurizing passages 52, 54, and the injection start command valve 21 is closed.

(D) Fuel injection for ignition When the timing setting valve 19 of the injection start command means 18 is opened to start depressurization of the hollow portion 32, the through hole 63 and the hollow portion 32.
The fuel in the pressure accumulating chamber 36 is sucked into the decompression chamber 20 through the spool 29, and the spool 29 descends, but since the through hole 63 has a reduced diameter portion,
A pressure difference is generated between the pressure accumulating chamber 36 and the hollow portion 32, and the spool 29
The child spool 62 rapidly rises at the same time as the descending. When the child spool 62 reaches the top dead center, the injection starting pressure reducing passages 52, 54 of the plunger 8, 65, 66 of the spool 29, and the child spool 62.
The valve groove 53 communicates with each other, the injection start command valve 21 is opened, the pump chamber 9 communicates with the injection start decompression chamber 22, and the internal pressure P _{1 of the} pump chamber 9 and the valve closing pressure chamber 12 is reduced. It will be.
The depressurized by in injection valve 15 is opened is performed the pre-injection, the internal pressure P ₁ of the closing chamber 12 and the pressure difference between the internal pressure P ₂ of the first fuel accumulator storage chamber 14a is below a predetermined value the injection valve 15 is closed once.

(E) Main fuel injection During the main fuel injection (main injection), there is no particular difference from the above-described embodiment.
