- the invention relates to a fuel injection valve according to the preamble of the main claim.
- an electromagnetically actuated fuel injection valve is known, whose armature is characterized in that the inner pole facing armature stop surface is slightly wedge-shaped to minimize the hydraulic damping when opening the fuel injector and the hydraulic adhesion force after switching off the solenoid coil exciting current or completely. Further, by appropriate measures such as vapor deposition and nitriding, the abutment surface of the armature designed wear-resistant, so that the stop surface during the entire life of the fuel injection valve has the same size and the operation of the fuel injection valve is not affected.
- document DE 35 01 973 A1 describes a fuel injector with a magnet assembly with a magnetizable ring as a solid component and a valve assembly with a movable component.
- the valve By energizing the magnet assembly, the valve is opened, wherein the surface of the movable member is brought into abutment with the surface of the fixed component.
- At least one abutment surface has to reduce the contact surface on a number of grooves or recesses, which are introduced by chipless material processing. These grooves or recesses have an angular shape in all the described embodiments. These recesses serve to reduce the amount of fuel present between the two abutment surfaces.
- the adhesion between the abutment surfaces is reduced, so that less force must be used to pull the stop surfaces when closing the valve of the return spring.
- the contact surfaces In order to reduce the abrasion and deformation on the contact surfaces by the continuous collision, the contact surfaces must be additionally hardened or coated with a particularly hard material. In order to obtain a reduced in their stop surface and simultaneously hardened contact surface, two separate manufacturing steps are necessary. This leads to a complex and costly production process. Also edged depressions make turbulence of fuel.
- the WO 95/16125 also shows an electromagnetically operable fuel injection valve, in which at least one component, which in opening the valve in Plant is brought to a second component, having a stepped, ie edged surface, which in turn leads to turbulence.
- the fuel injector according to the invention with the features of the main claim has the advantage that effectively protected by the design of the surface structure of the coating applied to the anchor, the armature stop surface and on the other hand, the hydraulic damping force is significantly reduced, whereby the fuel injection valve can be opened faster, resulting in more precise Metering times and quantities and a higher endurance limit results.
- the coating has raised and recessed areas, the height difference between the areas being dimensioned so that the recessed areas still remain below the raised areas even after long operation.
- the height difference is advantageously between 5 microns and 10 microns, which exceeds the normal removal after the break-in phase.
- the coating is composed of one or more chromium layers.
- FIGS. 2A and 2B An embodiment of an armature of a fuel injection valve according to the invention will be described in more detail, is intended to better understanding of the invention initially with reference to Fig. 1 an already known fuel injection valve will be briefly explained with respect to its essential components.

- the magnetic coil 10 is energized via a line 19 from a via an electrical plug contact 17 can be supplied with electric current.
- the plug contact 17 is surrounded by a plastic casing 18, which may be molded on the inner
- valve needle 3 is guided in a valve needle guide 14, which is designed disk-shaped.
- armature 20 On the other side of the dial 15 is the armature 20. This is a non-positively connected via a first flange 21 with the valve needle 3 in connection, which is connected by a weld 22 with the first flange 21.
- a return spring 23 On the first flange 21, a return spring 23 is supported, which is brought in the present design of the fuel injection valve 1 by a sleeve 24 to bias.
- valve needle guide 14 in the armature 20 and on a guide element 36 extend fuel channels 30, 31 and 32.
- the fuel is supplied via a central fuel supply 16 and filtered by a filter element 25.
- the fuel injection valve 1 is opposed by a seal 28 a fuel distribution line not shown and sealed by a further seal 37 against a cylinder head, not shown.

- the armature 20 In the resting state of the fuel injection valve 1, the armature 20 is acted upon by the return spring 23 counter to its stroke direction so that the valve closing body 4 is held on the valve seat surface 6 in sealing engagement. Upon energization of the solenoid coil 10, this builds up a magnetic field, which moves the armature 20 against the spring force of the return spring 23 in the stroke direction, wherein the stroke is determined by a located in the rest position between the inner pole 12 and the armature 20 working gap 27.
- the armature 20 takes the first flange 21, which is welded to the valve needle 3, also in the stroke direction with.
- the valve closing body 4 communicating with the valve needle 3 lifts off from the valve seat surface 6, and the fuel guided via the fuel channels 30 to 32 is sprayed through the injection opening 7.

Ein in
Das Brennstoffeinspritzventil 1 besteht aus einem Düsenkörper 2, in welchem eine Ventilnadel 3 angeordnet ist. Die Ventilnadel 3 steht mit einem Ventilschließkörper 4 in Wirkverbindung, der mit einer auf einem Ventilsitzkörper 5 angeordneten Ventilsitzfläche 6 zu einem Dichtsitz zusammenwirkt. Bei dem Brennstoffeinspritzventil 1 handelt es sich im Ausführungsbeispiel um ein nach innen öffnendes Brennstoffeinspritzventil 1, welches über eine Abspritzöffnung 7 verfügt. Der Düsenkörper 2 ist durch eine Dichtung 8 gegen einen Außenpol 9 einer Magnetspule 10 abgedichtet. Die Magnetspule 10 ist in einem Spulengehäuse 11 gekapselt und auf einen Spulenträger 12 gewickelt, welcher an einem Innenpol 13 der Magnetspule 10 anliegt. Der Innenpol 13 und der Außenpol 9 sind durch eine Verengung 26 voneinander getrennt und miteinander durch ein nicht ferromagnetisches Verbindungsbauteil 29 verbunden. Die Magnetspule 10 wird über eine Leitung 19 von einem über einen elektrischen Steckkontakt 17 zuführbaren elektrischen Strom erregt. Der Steckkontakt 17 ist von einer Kunststoffummantelung 18 umgeben, die am Innenpol 13 angespritzt sein kann.The fuel injection valve 1 consists of a nozzle body 2, in which a
Die Ventilnadel 3 ist in einer Ventilnadelführung 14 geführt, welche scheibenförmig ausgeführt ist. Zur Hubeinstellung dient eine zugepaarte Einstellscheibe 15. An der anderen Seite der Einstellscheibe 15 befindet sich der Anker 20. Dieser steht über einen ersten Flansch 21 kraftschlüssig mit der Ventilnadel 3 in Verbindung, welche durch eine Schweißnaht 22 mit dem ersten Flansch 21 verbunden ist. Auf dem ersten Flansch 21 stützt sich eine Rückstellfeder 23 ab, welche in der vorliegenden Bauform des Brennstoffeinspritzventils 1 durch eine Hülse 24 auf Vorspannung gebracht wird.The
In der Ventilnadelführung 14, im Anker 20 und an einem Führungselement 36 verlaufen Brennstoffkanäle 30, 31 und 32. Der Brennstoff wird über eine zentrale Brennstoffzufuhr 16 zugeführt und durch ein Filterelement 25 gefiltert. Das Brennstoffeinspritzventil 1 ist durch eine Dichtung 28 gegen eine nicht weiter dargestellte Brennstoffverteilerleitung und durch eine weitere Dichtung 37 gegen einen nicht weiter dargestellten Zylinderkopf abgedichtet.In the
An der abspritzseitigen Seite des Ankers 20 ist ein ringförmiges Dämpfungselement 33, welches aus einem Elastomerwerkstoff besteht, angeordnet. Es liegt auf einem zweiten Flansch 34 auf, welcher über eine Schweißnaht 35 kraftschlüssig mit der Ventilnadel 3 verbunden ist.On the discharge side of the

Die Ventilnadel 3 wird dadurch in die gleiche Richtung bewegt, wodurch der Ventilschließkörper 4 auf der Ventilsitzfläche 6 aufsetzt und das Brennstoffeinspritzventil 1 geschlossen wird.If the coil current is turned off, the
Die Ankeranschlagfläche 38 ist erfindungsgemäß mit einer Beschichtung 40 versehen, welche einerseits die Ankeranschlagfläche 38 sowie eine entsprechende Anschlagfläche 39 am Innenpol 13 vor Verschleiß schützt und andererseits durch ihre spezielle Oberflächenstruktur 41 für ein zügiges Abfließen des Brennstoffs beim Anziehen des Ankers 20 bei Bestromung der Magnetspule 10 sorgt und damit den Öffnungsvorgang des Brennstoffeinspritzventils 1 nicht stört. Zudem wird die Kavitation der Ankeranschlagfläche 38 sowie der Anschlagfläche 39 des Innenpols 13 verringert, da der Brennstoff nicht verwirbelt wird.According to the invention, the
Die Oberflächenstruktur 41 weist dabei erhöhte und vertiefte Bereiche 42, 43 auf, welche durch ein entsprechendes Beschichtungsverfahren erzielt werden. Bevorzugt wird für die Beschichtung 40 Chrom verwendet, welches in mehreren Schichten auf die Ankeranschlagfläche 38 des Ankers 20 aufgebracht wird. Dadurch ergeben sich kalottenförmig erhabene Bereiche 42, zwischen welchen die vertieften Bereiche 43 ausgebildet sind.The
Die Fläche, welche durch die wechselnden erhabenen und vertieften Bereiche 42, 43 als Ankeranschlagfläche 38 zur Verfügung steht, ist erwartungsgemäß kleiner als eine geschlossene Ankeranschlagfläche 38, so daß beim Schließen des Brennstoffeinspritzventils 1 ein verringertes hydraulisches Kleben zwischen der Ankeranschlagfläche 38 und der Anschlagfläche 39 des Innenpols 13 zu beobachten ist.The area provided by the alternating raised and recessed
