Definitions
- the invention is based on a valve control unit for a fuel injection valve, in particular for a common rail injector, according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
- Such a valve control unit has become known, for example, from EP_0_661_442_A1.
- Valve control units are provided to influence the pressurization of one end of a displaceably mounted valve control piston.
- the other end of the valve control piston can act on a nozzle needle, so that the nozzle needle either seals the injection opening or allows fuel to escape from the injection opening.
- Pressurization of an end member of the valve control piston is carried out by changing the pressure conditions within a first valve control chamber, which is connected to a high-pressure accumulator (common rail) via an inlet channel.
- a first valve control chamber which is connected to a high-pressure accumulator (common rail) via an inlet channel.
- an outlet channel is connected to a second one with the first valve control chamber continuously connected valve control room is open. Therefore, the pressure in the first valve control chamber and thus the hydraulic force on the valve control piston decrease.
- the first valve control chamber has only a small volume, so that opening the drain channel results in a rapid loss of pressure within the first valve control chamber.
- the known valve control unit has, in particular, only a small volume of the first valve control chamber because the valve control piston bears in the region of the passage from the first to the second valve control chamber against a hydraulic stop (fuel cushion) which is formed in this passage region.
- a volume increase would lead to a disadvantageous vibration behavior of the valve control piston resting against the stop in the event of a hydraulic stop.
- the leakage of fuel into the second valve control chamber corresponds to the pressure loss within the valve control chamber and only sets to a constant value after a certain time.
- valve control piston can be moved in the direction of the injection opening so that it is closed again. Because of the considerable pressure loss (with the drain channel open) within the first and second valve control chambers, movement of the valve control piston in the direction of the injection opening (nozzle needle) is only achieved after a certain time, namely when sufficient pressure has been built up again within the first valve control chamber. At the end of the injection process, the
- Injection opening by means of the nozzle needle cannot be closed at high speed because such a movement of the valve control piston is not possible.
- valve control unit according to the invention for a fuel injection valve in particular for a common rail injector, has the characterizing features of patent claim 1 for a faster closing process of the nozzle needle to end the injection process.
- the fluidic connection between the first and second valve control chambers is established by a throttle channel which is within the end member of the
- Valve control piston is formed. With regard to the flow of the fuel from a high-pressure accumulator (common rail) through the first valve control chamber into the outlet channel, the inlet channel and the throttle channel are connected in series. A defined flow of fuel is between the throttle channel Valve control rooms and the drain channel guaranteed.
- the design of the throttle channel enables a mechanical stop of the end member of the valve control piston at edge regions of the passage between the first and second valve control spaces. The end member of the valve control piston can strike there and seal the drain opening, so that fuel can only get into the second valve control chamber and thus into the drain channel via the throttle channel. Due to the mechanical stop, the first valve control chamber can have a large volume without a
- Vibration behavior of the valve control piston can occur. This increase in volume compared to the prior art leads to a slow pressure drop taking place within the first valve control chamber. After the drain channel has been closed, only the pressure within the smaller second valve control chamber has to be increased in order to pressurize the valve control piston. The valve spool can react faster to move the nozzle needle.
- Valve control unit are shown in the drawing and explained in the description below. Show it :
- FIG. 1 shows a longitudinal section through a valve control unit according to the invention.
- FIG. 2 shows a longitudinal section through a further end member of a valve control piston for a valve control unit according to FIG. 1.
- valve control unit 1 is in an idle state in which the injection opening is closed, which is not shown in FIG. 1.
- the valve control unit 1 has a housing body 2, in which a valve control piston 3 is slidably mounted.
- a first valve control chamber 5 is formed above a piston surface 4 that can be pressurized.
- the first is via an inlet channel in the form of an inlet throttle 6
- Valve control room 5 connected to a high pressure accumulator (common rail). With the help of a passage 7, fuel can get into a second valve control chamber 8.
- the second valve control chamber 8 has a connection to an outlet channel in the form of an outlet throttle 9 at an end member opposite the passage 7.
- the outlet throttle 9 is closed in the state shown in FIG. 1 by a valve ball 10 of a solenoid valve, which is not shown in detail in FIG. 1. If the outlet throttle 9 is now opened with the aid of the solenoid valve by the valve ball 10 opening an outlet opening 11, fuel can escape in the direction of the arrow 12 and be directed into a storage container.
- the pressure within the second valve control chamber 8 decreases.
- Pre-injection can be carried out in a known manner by means of the valve control unit 1.
- the pressure within the first valve control chamber also changes, so that an end member of the valve control piston 3 moves in such a way that an end face 14 of the end member 13 comes to rest against stop faces 15 of edge regions 16 of the passage 7.
- Fuel can pass through a throttle channel in the form of a further inlet throttle 17.
- the inlet throttle 17 extends from an outer circumferential surface 18 of the end member 13 to its end face 14.
- a stop of the end member 13 at the edge regions 16 can result in a fuel exchange between the first valve control chamber 5 and the second valve control chamber 8.
- the inlet throttle 6 and the further inlet throttle 17 are connected in series.
- the flow inside the inlet throttle 17 is smaller than inside the inlet throttle 6.
- the first valve control chamber 5 is connected to the high-pressure accumulator and has a pressure within its volume that is comparable to that of the high-pressure accumulator because a pressure equalization between the
- Valve control rooms 5 and 8 can only take place slowly due to the volume ratios and the flow cross sections of the inlet throttles 6 and 17.
- Valve control unit 1 will first be the drain opening 11 closed. Almost high pressure is formed within the first valve control chamber 5, so that only the second valve control chamber 8 has to be filled with high pressure so that the valve control piston 3 is moved in the direction of arrow 19.
- valve control piston 3 Due to the design of the valve control piston 3 with respect to its end member 13, which is formed coaxially with the valve control piston 3 with a reduced outer diameter, the free volume of the first valve control chamber 5 can be further increased.
- volume increase of the valve control chamber 5 in conjunction with the mechanical stop supports the occurrence of only a slow pressure loss within the first valve control chamber 5 when the drain opening 11 is opened. This has a positive effect on a high closing speed of the valve control piston 3 or a nozzle needle (not shown).
- FIG. 1 Another embodiment of an end member 20 of the valve control piston 3 is shown in FIG.
- the end member 20 has an inlet throttle 21 which runs transversely to the longitudinal axis of the valve control piston 3 and is connected in a T-shape to a further inlet throttle 22.
- inlet throttle 21 When fuel enters the inlet throttles 21 or 22, fuel can pass from the first valve control chamber 5 into the second valve control chamber 8.
