Definitions
- the invention is based on a fuel injection valve according to the preamble of claim 1.
- the insert has a peg-shaped part which is inserted into a corresponding blind bore in the housing of the fuel injection valve and with its end face closes a guide bore within which a plunger is guided , the other end acts on the injector needle.
- the control pressure chamber is housed in an axial bore of the insert in the known embodiment and is connected via a throttle to a further control chamber part located directly above the tappet in the guide bore.
- An insert accommodating this throttle is provided between the insert and the tappet. The stroke of the ram can be adjusted by varying the thickness of the insert.
- the solenoid valve in this embodiment has a solenoid valve housing with an axially protruding apron, via which the insert is held in its position in the housing of the fuel injection valve.
- the armature of the solenoid valve is guided on the inner circumference of the apron is basically between the upper end of the insert and the magnetic core of the electromagnet actuating the armature.
- This configuration requires a lot of effort to adjust the stroke of the valve member of the solenoid valve. There is a risk that if the armature comes into direct contact with the associated core of the electromagnet, magnetic sticking can occur disadvantageously, which considerably affects the functionality, in particular also the switching speed of the solenoid valve.
- the fuel injection valve according to the invention with the characterizing features of patent claim 1 achieves a compact design with considerable manufacturing and assembly advantages. Characterized in that the insert now receives both the guidance of the valve member of the solenoid valve and the cylinder with movable wall enclosing the control pressure chamber, a single manufacturing unit is created which is easy to manufacture and simple to assemble. It is particularly advantageous that the anchor is designed as a flat anchor and is adjustable in a pot-like recess of the insert, with an edge of the insert projecting beyond the anchor in the closed position and ending directly in the plane that defines the end of stroke position of the anchor .
- An assignment of the electromagnet of the solenoid valve to the valve seat arranged in the insert can thus be established in a simple manner and this assignment can be set exactly by simply revising the height of the edge of the insert.
- a residual air gap can then be defined in a very simple manner according to claim 3 by introducing an intermediate disk between the edge of the insert and the housing or the magnetic core of the electromagnet are, the armature with excitation of the electromagnet with its edge in a stroke limiting its magnet towards the magnet comes to the washer, namely in a narrow surface area in the edge area on the outer circumference of the armature. This ensures that when the electromagnet is switched off and under the action of a closing spring, the armature quickly and safely brings the valve closing member back into the closed position.
- an injection valve needle (not shown in any more detail) is guided in the housing 1 of the fuel injection valve, as it is e.g. is also disclosed in the publication cited at the beginning.
- This injection valve needle has at one end a conical sealing surface which interacts with a likewise conical valve seat in the housing 1 and closes injection bores when the injection valve needle rests on its valve seat and opens them when the injection valve needle is lifted off.
- the injection bores can lead away directly from the conical valve seat or from a blind hole adjoining the conical valve seat. Modern injection systems prefer the first solution.
- the valve needle On the valve seat side, the valve needle surrounds an annular space that extends to a pressure space at the other end of the annular space, which is constantly connected to a high-pressure pressure source, not shown, in the form of a high-pressure accumulator.
- the housing of the fuel injection valve has one
- the plunger 3 is placed on the valve needle, which is guided in a cylinder bore 4 on its end facing away from the valve needle.
- the tappet is at a distance from the housing over the length of the part lying outside the cylinder bore stored and there is also a compression spring acting in the closing direction, which acts either on the tappet or on the injection valve needle.
- the plunger 3 On its end face 6, which forms a movable wall, the plunger 3 includes in the cylinder bore 4 with its closed end a control pressure chamber 7, which is connected to the inlet 5 via an inlet throttle 8, also called a Z-throttle.
- the cylinder bore 4 is made within a cylindrical insert 10, which is made from a part stepped on the outer circumference. A part 12 of the stepped part with the smallest diameter is inserted into a housing bore 13 of the housing 1. This smallest part 12 is followed by a part 14 with a diameter, which is inserted in a correspondingly larger part of the housing bore 13 and which finally merges via a shoulder 16 into a flange-like part 17.
- the cylinder bore 4 is accommodated in the area of the part 12 of the cylindrical insert which is smaller in diameter. Axial is within this part of the control pressure - o -
- valve seat 7 clears a relief line in the form of a bore 25 which merges into an outlet throttle 26, which in turn ends in a conical valve seat 28 which adjoins a relief space.
- This valve seat is the valve seat of a solenoid valve 29, which has an electromagnet 30 with a magnet core 31, a magnet coil 32 embedded therein and a magnet valve housing 34 receiving the magnet core with a magnet coil.
- the magnet valve housing is connected by means of a clamping nut 35, which has a collar 36 a shoulder 37 of the
- Solenoid valve housing is coupled, screwed to the housing of the injection valve.
- the clamping nut has an internal thread that is screwed onto an external thread on the connector 20.
- Insert 10 pressed so that it comes to rest with its shoulder 16 on the shoulder 17 of the housing. And so it is fixed in the housing of the fuel injector.
- the solenoid valve 39 also has a flat armature 40, which comes to rest within a recess 42 on the end face of the flange-like part 17 of the insert 10.
- the recess 42 is delimited on the circumference by an edge 43, on the end face 44 of which the end face of the solenoid valve housing acts.
- An axially extending tappet 45 is connected to the armature, which is part of the valve member and which is guided in a guide bore 47 of the insert 10 lying coaxially to the cylinder bore 4.
- the plunger At the end of the plunger facing away from the flat armature 40, the plunger has a receptacle 49 for a ball 50, which cooperates as a valve member with the valve seat 28.
- the receptacle can be designed as a separate part that can be displaced transversely to the actuation direction of the plunger 45 in order to compensate for misalignments that can be attributed to tolerances during production.
- the flat armature 40 is also loaded by a compression spring 52, which is accommodated in the inside of the magnetic core 31 in an axial bore and is supported there. This spring brings the valve member 50 in when the electromagnet is not energized
- the magnetic core 31 has a flat end face 53 towards the flat armature 40, which lies in a plane with the end face of the solenoid valve housing or protrudes somewhat from it. This means that this surface can be machined precisely.
- the washer 55 can be made correspondingly thicker.
- the control pressure chamber 7 is constantly brought to the high pressure via the Z throttle 8 when the solenoid valve is closed, which is also present in the high-pressure fuel accumulator. Since the end face 6 of the plunger 3 has a larger area than a pressure surface which is present on the injection valve needle and acts in the opening direction, the valve needle is held in the closed position by the high pressure in the control pressure chamber. As soon as the solenoid valve is energized, the control pressure chamber can be opened to the relief chamber via the bore 25 and the throttle 26.
- the relief space is provided by the entirety of the ram guide and recess 42 formed space. The relief line connected to the relief space is not shown in the drawing. If the solenoid valve closes again by switching off the excitation of the electromagnet, the original high pressure quickly builds up again in the control pressure chamber 7 via the throttle 8 and the valve needle is then brought into the closed position by the force resulting therefrom.
- the design of the insert with the edge 43 also allows a very favorable adaptation of the geometric dimensions of the valve member to that of the flat anchor 40.
- the ball 50 is replaced by a ball with a larger diameter that holds the flat anchor 40 in brings a position that corresponds to its position when the electromagnet is excited. In this position, the flat anchor 40 and the edge 43 of the insert are processed together, so that a common plane is created. The stroke of the flat anchor 40 can thus be set exactly to the desired dimension.
- the entire arrangement has the advantage that the insert can be easily machined to the required dimensions and is also clamped in a simple manner together with the housing of the solenoid valve in the housing of the injection valve.
