Definitions
- the present disclosure relates to a valve device and a device for manufacturing the valve device.
- a fuel injection valve that opens and closes an injection hole formed in a housing by reciprocating movement of a needle and injects fuel in the housing.
- the fuel injection valve includes a drive unit that can drive the needle in the valve opening direction, and a spring that biases the needle in the valve closing direction.
- the driving force output from the driving unit and the biasing force of the spring act on the needle. Since the urging force of the spring is determined by the distance between the adjusting pipe press-fitted and fixed to the housing and the needle, it is necessary to accurately adjust the position where the adjusting pipe is fixed when manufacturing the fuel injection valve.
- the flow rate of the fluid flowing through the fuel injection valve is maintained at a predetermined constant flow rate while changing the amount by which the adjusting pipe is pushed into the fixed core and the control value of the control current supplied to the drive unit.
- a fuel injection valve adjustment method for adjusting the pushing amount of the adjusting pipe so that the control current becomes the target control value is described.
- An object of the present disclosure is to provide a valve device that can set the biasing force with high accuracy while shortening the time required for adjusting the biasing force of the biasing member.
- a valve device in one aspect of the present disclosure, includes a valve housing having a hole through which fluid can flow and a valve seat formed around the hole, a cylindrical member fixed inside the valve housing or integrally formed with the valve housing A valve member that is reciprocally movable in the valve housing and opens or closes the hole when it is separated from the valve seat or abuts on the valve seat, and the first end abuts the valve member and attaches the valve member in the valve closing direction or valve opening direction.

- the bias device of the present disclosure When the valve device of the present disclosure is provided so as to be relatively movable with respect to the tubular member in a product state or in an actual use state, when the valve device of the present disclosure is manufactured, the bias device is biased through the intermediate member. The biasing force of the member is detected. Based on the relationship between the detected biasing force of the biasing member and the position of the intermediate member, the adjustment member is press-fitted and fixed at a position where the biasing force of the biasing member becomes a predetermined biasing force. Thereby, the position which fixes an adjustment member based on the change of the biasing force of a biasing member can be determined.
- the biasing force of the biasing member can be adjusted by dry adjustment that does not require fluid, rather than wet adjustment that determines the position at which the adjustment member is fixed based on a change in fluid flow rate while actually flowing fluid.
- the time for adjusting the biasing force of the biasing member can be shortened.
- the intermediate member is provided so as to be relatively movable with respect to the cylindrical member, and therefore, the urging force of the urging member that acts on the intermediate member can be detected with high accuracy.
- the adjustment member can be fixed so that the urging force of the urging member becomes a predetermined urging force, and the urging force of the urging member in the product state or the actual use state can be set with high accuracy.
- the intermediate member is provided so as not to move relative to the cylindrical member.
- the urging force of the urging member is detected via the intermediate member, and the adjustment member is fixed based on the detected urging force of the urging member. After the adjustment member is fixed, the intermediate member is not allowed to move relative to the tubular member.
- the valve device of the present disclosure can be prevented from changing the position of the intermediate member due to the resistance of the fluid flowing inside the valve device in a product state or an actual use state.
- the urging force of the urging member is set with high precision while shortening the time for adjusting the urging force of the urging member by making the intermediate member relatively movable with respect to the cylindrical member at the time of manufacture.
- the biasing force of the biasing member can be stabilized by disabling relative movement of the member with respect to the cylindrical member.

Since the outer diameter of the intermediate member 51 is smaller than the inner diameter of the fixed core 38, the intermediate member 51 can freely reciprocate in the direction of the central axis CA1. The intermediate member 51 inserted into the fixed core 38 abuts on the second end of the spring 28.
- the adjusting pipe 40 Since the adjusting pipe 40 has an outer diameter equal to the inner diameter of the fixed core 38, the adjusting pipe 40 is press-fitted into the fixed core 38 by pressing the second jig 412. The first jig 411 is kept in contact with the intermediate member 51 until the adjusting pipe 40 to be pressed contacts the intermediate member 51 (the distance L in FIG. 5 is from 0 to L1). ing. Since the length of the spring 28 at this time is a natural length, the biasing force of the spring 28 detected by the detection unit 415 is zero.
- the adjusting pipe 40 comes into contact with the intermediate member 51 (see FIG. 4). Thereafter, the intermediate member 51 and the adjusting pipe 40 are moved in the valve closing direction by the first jig 411 and the second jig 412 while the adjusting pipe 40 and the intermediate member 51 are kept in contact with each other. At this time, the detection unit 415 detects the biasing force of the spring 28 according to the distance L.
- the calculation unit 416 calculates the distance L and the spring 28 based on the biasing force of the spring 28 detected by the detection unit 415. Is derived from the urging force Fsp (solid line portion FL1 between the distance L1 and the distance L2 in FIG. 6).

- the urging force of the spring 28 is determined by the pipe set position of the adjusting pipe 40 that is press-fitted into the fixed core 38.
- the time when the fuel injection valve 1 starts fuel injection changes.
- the adjusting pipe 40 is not sufficiently press-fitted and the pipe set position is shallow, that is, at a position relatively close to the fuel introduction pipe 16, the biasing force of the spring 28 becomes smaller than the target biasing force. Therefore, fuel injection is started at time T1 earlier than time T0, which is the target fuel injection start timing, and the fuel injection amount is as indicated by a two-dot chain line QT1.
- the adjusting pipe 40 is press-fitted deep into the fixed core 38 and the pipe set position is deep, that is, close to the needle 30, the biasing force of the spring 28 becomes larger than the target biasing force. For this reason, fuel injection is started at time T2 later than the target time T0, and the fuel injection amount is as indicated by a two-dot chain line QT2.
- an intermediate member 51 capable of detecting the biasing force of the spring 28 without being influenced by the press-fit state of the adjusting pipe 40 is provided between the adjusting pipe 40 and the spring 28. ing.
- the relationship between the position of the adjusting pipe 40 and the biasing force of the spring 28 is derived. Based on the derived relationship, the pipe set position of the adjusting pipe that uses the biasing force of the spring 28 as a target biasing force is calculated.
- the adjusting pipe 40 is fixed to the calculated pipe set position. Therefore, the fuel injection valve 1 can set the biasing force of the spring 28 with high accuracy.
