Definitions

  • the invention relates to a cyclically operating pump, in particular a high-pressure fuel piston pump, according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • DE 102019217207 A1 discloses a cyclically operating pump in the form of a high-pressure fuel piston pump for a fuel system of an internal combustion engine.
  • a high-pressure fuel piston pump compresses the fuel to a high pressure and forwards it to a fuel collection line (“rail”), from where the fuel is injected directly into the combustion chambers of the internal combustion engine.
  • a pump piston is guided in the pump housing, and the pump piston is acted upon by a piston spring in the direction of a drive.
  • the pump piston delivers fuel via an outlet valve to an outlet connection, which is welded to the pump housing.
  • the pump works "cyclically".
  • a cyclically operating pump for example a piston pump, in particular a high-pressure fuel piston pump.
  • the high-pressure fuel pump according to the invention has the advantage that the strength and thus the service life of the pump is improved even at very high pressure peaks in the outlet connection without, for example, the welded connection between the outlet connection and the pump housing having to be reinforced by an additional screw connection.
  • a pump can be manufactured on existing production facilities. Also builds such a pump is smaller and more compact than a pump with an additional screw connection.
  • the individual components are also comparatively inexpensive. Since the connection between the outlet socket and the pump housing is still exclusively non-detachable (namely welded), no additional effort is required to secure it against detachment. Finally, the connection between the outlet nozzle and the pump housing remains completely fluid-tight and diffusion-tight, so that no additional fluid-tightness measures are required.
  • a cyclically operating pump in particular a high-pressure fuel piston pump.
  • a pump comprises a pump housing and an outlet connection welded to the pump housing by means of a circumferential weld area.
  • the pump housing can be essentially rotationally symmetrical, for example polygonal, and the outlet connection can be arranged on a radial outside of the pump housing.
  • the outlet connector in turn, can be designed as a tubular element and have an inclined contact surface toward the pump housing. For connection to the pump housing, this is pressed against an annular edge of an outlet opening in the pump housing.
  • the contact pressure with which the outlet connector is pressed against the pump housing while the connection is being made can be very high.
  • the connection is preferably made by resistance welding, in particular by capacitor discharge welding (KE welding).
  • KE welding capacitor discharge welding
  • the annular edge of the pump housing is fused to the sloping contact surface in a weld area.
  • the outlet connector has a stiffening area acting in the radial direction immediately adjacent to the welding area, on which there is a first hydraulically effective surface. This has a first resultant hydraulic force acting in a first direction.
  • the first direction typically points away from the pump housing.
  • the outlet socket When the outlet connection is connected to the pump housing, a circumferential groove-like surface is formed on the radially inner edge of the welding area indentation (“inner notch”). Due to the cyclic operation of the pump according to the invention, the first resultant hydraulic force has a pulsating strength, through which—without countermeasures—the welding area in the area of the inner notch would be subject to a pulsating load. According to the invention, however, the outlet socket has a second hydraulically effective surface in its interior. This has a second hydraulic force resultant acting in a second direction at least substantially opposite and coaxial with the first direction of the first force resultant. In this way, the aforementioned pulsating load acting on the inner notch is largely eliminated, which leads to the initially mentioned improvement in the fatigue strength of the welded connection, even at high pressure peaks.
  • the two resultant forces act parallel to a longitudinal axis of the outlet connector and are at least approximately at the same height in the radial direction.
  • the two hydraulically effective surfaces run at least essentially orthogonally to a longitudinal axis of the outlet connector, which has manufacturing advantages.
  • the two hydraulically effective surfaces are at least approximately the same size. Accordingly, the two resultant forces are approximately the same in terms of magnitude, so that the load acting on the inner notch is eliminated particularly well.
  • the second hydraulically effective surface is provided at least also by an undercut in an inner peripheral wall of the outlet connector. This is easy to implement in terms of manufacturing technology, since the outlet connection is usually machined anyway.
  • the undercut is produced by a puncture.
  • Corresponding turning tools are inexpensive.
  • the second hydraulically effective surface is provided at least also by a support element arranged inside the outlet connector.
  • Such a support element can provide a stiffening area acting in the radial direction, in which very high radial forces can also be absorbed and thus a radial deformation of the outlet connection piece when the welded connection is produced is reliably prevented.
  • the support element is ring-shaped. Such a support element is easy to produce and offers uniform radial stiffening with, at the same time, a sufficiently free passage inside the outlet connector for the fluid delivered by the pump.
  • the support element is pressed into a socket body. This has manufacturing advantages and is inexpensive.
  • the support element is made of high-strength steel.
  • the support element has projections distributed over its circumference and protruding in the axial direction. Such projections can additionally support an emerging torque.
  • the range of features relating to geometric relationships is defined by explanations such as “essentially coaxial”, “essentially perpendicular”, “about the same size”, etc.
  • the feature may include the geometric relationship as such concern, i.e. in the examples “caxial”, “perpendicular”, “equal size” etc.
  • areas can also be included or defined as they usually arise in practice due to industrial manufacturability, for example with regard to angles 1° or with regard to areas 1%.
  • FIG. 1 shows a partial longitudinal section through a high-pressure fuel pump with a pump housing and a first embodiment of an outlet connector with an undercut formed by a recess;
  • FIG. 2 shows a detailed section through the outlet connector of FIG. 1;
  • FIG. 3 shows an enlarged view of a welding area between the outlet connector and the pump housing from FIG. 1;
  • FIG. 4 shows an illustration similar to FIG. 3 of an alternative embodiment of an outlet connection with an annular support element
  • Figure 5 is a sectional perspective view of the embodiment of Figure 4 and a portion of the pump housing in a condition just prior to welding;
  • Figure 6 is a plan view and section through an alternative annular support member.
  • a cyclically operating pump in the form of a high-pressure fuel piston pump for a fuel system of an internal combustion engine bears the overall reference number 10. It comprises a pump housing 12, which in the present example has an approximately polygonal shape with a longitudinal axis 14 for example, coaxially to the longitudinal axis 14 there is a stepped blind hole-like opening 16 produced, for example, by a bore, in which a pump piston 18 is accommodated. With its upper end region in FIG. 1, together with the pump housing 12, this delimits a pumping chamber 20. With its end region, which is lower in FIG. and can offset reciprocation.
  • the pump 10 also includes an inlet valve 22 which is designed as a non-return valve, but which can be held in an open position by an electromagnetic actuating device 24 .
  • the high-pressure fuel pump 10 also includes an outlet valve 26 embodied as a non-return valve and a pressure-limiting valve 28 .
  • the outlet port 32 will be discussed in greater detail further below.
  • a membrane damper 34 for damping low-pressure pulsations is also present in the region of an upper end face (without reference number) of the pump housing 12 .
  • the pump piston 18 reciprocates parallel to its longitudinal axis 14 during operation of the pump 10 . If the pump piston 18 moves downwards in FIG. 1 (suction stroke), fuel is sucked into the delivery chamber 20 via the inlet valve 22 . If the pump piston 18 moves upwards in Figure 1 (delivery stroke), the fuel in the delivery chamber 20 is first compressed to a high pressure until the outlet valve 26 opens and the fuel is ejected via the outlet connector 32 to a fuel collection line (“rail”) becomes. From there, the fuel reaches the associated combustion chambers via injectors.
  • the outlet connector 32 of FIG. 1 will now be explained in greater detail with reference in particular to FIG. At an end 37 facing away from the pump housing 12 in the installed state (FIG. 1), there is an external thread 38 to which a high-pressure line (not shown) can be screwed, which connects the outlet socket 32 to the above-mentioned fuel collecting line.
  • a first inner lateral surface 48 coaxial with the longitudinal axis 36 extends from the end face 40 in the direction of the end 37.
  • the undercut 50 is produced by turning in the form of a recess.
  • the cross-sectional shape of the undercut is of particular interest here: from the first inner lateral surface 48, a side surface 52 extends radially outwards orthogonally to the longitudinal axis 36. This flows into a base surface 54, which is evenly curved in the direction of the end 39 and extends approximately over extends an angle of 135° in the present example.
  • the base surface 54 in turn opens into a side surface 56 running at an angle of 45° to the longitudinal axis 36, for example. From this, an inner end surface 58 running orthogonally to the longitudinal axis 36 branches off radially inwards, from which finally a side surface extends coaxially to the longitudinal axis 36 in the direction towards the end 39 extending outlet channel 60 branches off.
  • a support section 62 is formed by the material region formed between the end face 40 and the side face 52 .
  • the outlet connector 32 is subjected to a high force in the direction of its longitudinal axis 36 towards the pump housing 12, where it rests with its inclined contact surface 42 against an edge of an outlet opening 64 ( Figures 1 and 3) that is initially present there.
  • the connection is ultimately made by resistance welding, in the present example by capacitor discharge welding. In this way, the initially present annular edge of the outlet opening 64 of the pump housing 12 is fused with the inclined contact surface 42, as a result of which the weld region 30 is formed.
  • notches are formed on the radially inner and radially outer edges of the welding region 30, namely a circumferential inner notch 66 and a circumferential outer notch 68 (FIG. 3).
  • the support section 62 stabilizes the end 39 of the outlet connector 32 pointing toward the pump housing 12 radially inwards, as a result of which an impermissible deformation is prevented there. To this extent, the support section 62 forms a stiffening area acting radially inward.
  • the cyclic ejection of the fuel leads to cyclically recurring pressure peaks in the fuel pressure inside the outlet connection 32.
  • the hydraulic pressure acts both on the end face 40 (arrow 70 in Figure 3) and on the side face 52 (arrows 72 in figure 3).
  • the end face 40 forms a first hydraulically effective surface with a first hydraulic force resultant, which acts in a first direction 73, namely the direction of the arrows 70, i.e. in a direction parallel to the longitudinal axis of the outlet connector 36 to the end 37 facing away from the pump housing 12 of the outlet port 32 out.
  • the side surface 52 forms a second hydraulically effective surface with a second hydraulic force resultant that acts in a second direction 75, namely the direction of the arrows 72, i.e. again in a direction parallel to the longitudinal axis of the outlet connector 36, but to the end pointing to the pump housing 12 39 of the outlet port 32 out. Since the end face 40 and the side face 52 are at least approximately the same size, the corresponding hydraulic forces acting on the end face 40 and the side face 52 are also approximately the same in magnitude. It can be seen that the two resultant forces are thus opposite and coaxial to one another.
  • FIGS. 4 and 5 An alternative embodiment is shown in FIGS. 4 and 5.
  • the outlet connector 32 is produced essentially without the end face that bears the reference number 40 above. Instead, the sloping contact surface 42 merges directly into the first inner lateral surface 48 , which in turn merges directly into the inner end face 58 via a sloping intermediate surface 74 .
  • the support section 62 is formed by a support element 76 in the form of an inner ring made of high-strength steel, which is pressed into a connector body 78 of the outlet connector 32 .
  • FIG. 5 shows the outlet nozzle 32 immediately before the start of the welding process. At this point in time, the edge at the edge of the outlet opening 64 is still relatively pronounced.
  • FIG. 5 also shows an electrode 80 which is used to produce the welded connection.
  • the inner ring 76 can have a plurality of projections 82 in the form of nubs, which are arranged on the end face 40 evenly distributed over the circumference and point in the installed position towards the end 39 of the outlet connector 32 pointing towards the pump housing 12 exhibit.
  • the inner ring 76 shown in FIG. 6 has three such projections
