Zumesseinheit und Hochdruckpumpe  Metering unit and high pressure pump
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Zumesseinheit für eine Hochdruckpumpe eines Kraftstoffeinspritzsystems, insbesondere eines Common-Rail-Systems, einer Brennkraftmaschine gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1 und eine Hochdruckpumpe gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 8. The present invention relates to a metering unit for a high pressure pump of a fuel injection system, in particular a common rail system, an internal combustion engine according to the preamble of claim 1 and a high pressure pump according to the preamble of claim 8.
Stand der Technik State of the art
Im Stand der Technik sind Kraftstoffeinspritzsysteme, z. B. Common Rail Systeme bekannt, die eine Radialkolbenpumpe zum Bereitstellen von unter Hochdruck stehendem Kraftstoff an einen Kraftstoffspeicher aufweisen. Um den energetischen Wirkungsgrad einer derartigen Radialkolbenpumpe zu verbessern, erfolgt im Stand der Technik eine kraftstoffzulaufseitige (saugseitige) Mengenregelung, wobei der in die Pumpenelemente der Radialkolbenpumpe fließende Kraftstoff durch eine an die Radialkolbenpumpe angebaute Zumesseinheit (ZME) dosiert wird. Eine derartige Zumesseinheit umfasst beispielsweise ein stufenlos regelbares Magnetventil, welches die in den Hochdruckspeicher geförderte Kraftstoffmenge dem Systembedarf anpasst. In the prior art, fuel injection systems, for. As common rail systems are known, which have a radial piston pump for providing fuel under high pressure to a fuel storage. In order to improve the energy efficiency of such a radial piston pump, in the prior art, a fuel inlet side (suction side) flow control, wherein the flowing into the pump elements of the radial piston pump fuel is metered by a attached to the radial piston pump metering unit (ZME). Such a metering unit comprises, for example, a continuously variable solenoid valve which adapts the amount of fuel delivered to the high-pressure accumulator to the system requirement.
Eine Radialkolbenpumpe für ein Kraftstoffeinspritzsystem einer Brennkraftmaschine, welche eine Zumesseinheit zur Fördermengenregelung aufweist, welche in einem Verteilerelement angeordnet ist, ist aus DE 10 2007 057 503 A1 bekannt. A radial piston pump for a fuel injection system of an internal combustion engine, which has a metering unit for flow rate control, which is arranged in a distributor element, is known from DE 10 2007 057 503 A1.
Darüber hinaus ist in DE 198 01 355 B4 eine Hochdruckpumpe zur Kraftstoffhochdruckerzeugung in einem Common-Rail-Einspritzsystem beschrieben, in welche eine Zumesseinheit für den Gesamtkraftstoffstrom integriert ist, die dafür sorgt, dass nur ein vorgewählter Förderstrom in der Hochdruckpumpe mit Hochdruck beaufschlagt wird. Beim Einsatz von kritischen Kraftstoffen, wie beispielsweise Kraftstoffe mit schlechter Schmierfähigkeit, niedrigem Dampfdruck, oder Wasser enthaltende Kraftstoffe, entsteht zwischen dem Ventilkolben der Zumesseinheit und einem Überströmventilträger der aus dem Stand der Technik bekannten Konfigurationen ein erhöhter Verschleiß. In addition, DE 198 01 355 B4 describes a high-pressure pump for generating high-pressure fuel in a common-rail injection system, in which a metering unit for the total fuel flow is integrated, which ensures that only a preselected delivery flow in the high-pressure pump is subjected to high pressure. When using critical fuels, such as fuels with poor lubricity, low vapor pressure, or water-containing fuels, between the valve piston of the metering unit and a spill valve of the known from the prior art configurations, increased wear.
Zusätzlich kann durch an dem Ventilkolben auftretende Oberflächenkorrosion die Zumesseinheit so schwergängig werden, dass eine Mengenregelung nicht mehr möglich ist, was einen unerwünschten Notfahrbetrieb und/oder ein Liegenbleiben des Kraftfahrzeugs zur Folge hat. In addition, by surface corrosion occurring on the valve piston, the metering unit become so stiff that a volume control is no longer possible, resulting in an undesirable emergency driving and / or a stoppage of the motor vehicle result.
Daher ist es notwendig, eine Zumesseinheit für ein Kraftstoffeinspritzsystem einer Brennkraftmaschine, insbesondere für ein Common-Rail-System, zu schaffen, bei der Verschleiß reduziert wird und Korrosion am Ventilkolben vermieden wird. Therefore, it is necessary to provide a metering unit for a fuel injection system of an internal combustion engine, in particular for a common rail system, in which wear is reduced and corrosion on the valve piston is avoided.

Furthermore, below the armature 14, a valve piston 19 with control slots, which is surrounded by a spring 20, arranged. The metering unit 6 is sealed by means of a plurality of O-rings 21. The control of the solenoid valve 2 is done by means of a PWM signal. 3 shows an exploded view of a magnetic core 18 of a metering unit 6 according to an embodiment. The magnetic core 18 is formed at a lower portion 22 of a hollow cylinder. In the hollow cylindrical portion 22 of the magnetically actuable valve piston 19 is receivable, which is movable back and forth therein to release according to its position a flow cross-section or the openings formed by the inlet holes 23 so that fuel into the metering unit 6 (Fig. see Fig. 2) can occur.
