Schematically indicated in Fig. 1, the heat-transferring structure 29, which transfers heat to the also indicated heat-transmitting nozzle 24.

  • the heat transferring structure 29 exits the intake passage 8 in a portion of the intake passage far from the entrance portion of the heat-insulating passage 35, and is connected to a portion of the engine 2 via a screw connection 31.
  • This area may, for example, be an engine block or a cylinder head of the internal combustion engine 2.
  • the engine block or the cylinder head or the internal combustion engine 2 is a heat source 38, which is connected via the heat-transferring structure 29 with the heat-transferring nozzle 24.
  • second combustion Substance 33 (eg, LPG) is injected via the partially heat-insulated conduit 35.
  • This mixture is conventionally sucked by the negative pressure into the combustion chamber 11 and the opened valve 10 and the chemical energy is converted into mechanical energy by combustion in a conventional manner.
  • the resulting thermal energy is now transferred to a part of the heat transfer structure 29 to the heat transferring nozzle 24.

  • the end face 28 of the outlet 27 of the heat-insulated feed line 23 abuts the inlet 25 of the heat-transferring nozzle 24.
  • FIG. 5 shows the same section as FIG. 4 in a somewhat different embodiment of the connection of heat-transferring nozzle 24 and heat-insulated supply line 23.
  • the inlet 25 of the heat-transferring nozzle 24 is tubular and is enclosed by the sleeve 30.
  • the inlet 25 of the heat-transferring nozzle 24 adjoins the end face 28 of the outlet 27 of the heat-insulated supply line 23.

  • the inlet 25 of the heat-transferring nozzle 24 is partially conical.
  • the heat-insulated inlet 23 encloses the inlet 25 and is easily performed by the flared shape of the inlet 25 and is fixed by a collar 30 in a cylindrical portion of the inlet 25 by a collar 30.
  • only a heat transfer in the region between the inlet 25 and the nozzle opening 26 of the heat-transferring nozzle 24 is effected.
  • the end face 28 of the outlet 27 of the heat-insulated feed line 23 is located behind the inlet 24 of the heat-transferring nozzle 24.
  • the heat-transmitting nozzle 24 and the heat-insulating lead 23 partially overlap.
  • the injection system according to the invention for at least one intake line of a combustion engine for a liquid fuel is modular in addition to high stability and effective prevention of ice formation at the nozzle opening, so that it can be particularly easily adapted to different internal combustion engines with different numbers of combustion chambers. It thus represents a significant improvement over the prior art, particularly in the field of retrofit systems for additional fuels, such as LPG.
