Definitions
- the invention relates to an arrangement with a piezoelectric actuator, for example as a piezo injector or for actuating a mechanical component such as a valve or the like, and a method for its production according to the generic features of the main claim.
- a piezoelectric actuator for example as a piezo injector or for actuating a mechanical component such as a valve or the like
- a piezoelectric element can be used so that by utilizing the so-called piezoelectric effect, a control of the needle stroke of a valve or the like can be made.
- the piezoelectric element is constructed of a material having a suitable crystal structure such that when an external electrical voltage is applied, a mechanical reaction of the piezoelectric element takes place which, depending on the crystal structure and the contact areas of the electrical voltage, represents a pressure or tension in a predeterminable direction.
- Such piezoelectric actuators are suitable, for example, for applications in which lifting movements take place under high operating forces and high clock frequencies.
- such a piezoelectric actuator is known from DE 100 26 005 A1, which can be used to control the nozzle needle in injectors for injecting fuel into the combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine.
- a piezoelectric element constructed as a stack of several electrically coupled together piezoceramic layers, which is held under bias between two stops. Each piezoceramic layer is enclosed as a piezoelectric layer between two internal electrodes via which an electrical voltage can be applied from the outside. Because of this electrical voltage, the piezoceramic layers then each carry out small strokes in the direction of the potential gradient, which add up to the total stroke of the piezoelectric actuator. This total stroke is variable by the amount of voltage applied and can be transferred to a mechanical actuator.
- EP 1 174 615 A3 also describes a piezoelectric actuator or a piezoelectric injector in which a piezoelectric element is present as an actuator for the direct needle lifting control of an injection injector for an internal combustion engine. Between the piezo element as an actuator and the needle sits only a coupler with a hydraulic ratio to the expansion compensation. With an activation of the piezoelectric element, the needle held under pretension to the closure of the injection nozzle is thereby deflected by the nozzle. moved away as the needle directly translated follows the movement of the actuator.
- the electrical connection of the piezoelectric element to an external voltage source is carried out by an extension of the outer electrodes through a foot portion of the piezoelectric actuator.
- This extension can also be routed to a connector, so that they are thus contacted in a mechanically non-critical area.
- the extensions may be electrically isolated by the actuator foot, e.g. made of steel, are guided, on which the piezoelectric element is applied or fixed.
- the extensions for fixing and strain relief of the outer electrodes are held in a potting compound, which are in a recess of the actuator base, possibly surrounded by a molded part made of steel or polymer introduced.
- the invention is based on an arrangement described above with a piezoelectric actuator having a multi-layer structure of piezoelectric layers in a piezoelectric element and is held on a holding body, wherein the piezoelectric element is a mutual contacting of internal electrodes with contact elements. There are still supply wires as electrical -A-
- lines embedded in the head part of the holding body are advantageously connectable via contact connections with the contact elements, wherein the contact connections are preferably in each case in a centering and / or insulating sleeve in the actuator base on the piezoelectric element after assembly of the piezoelectric actuator.
- Such an arrangement is for example advantageously used for controlling the stroke of a needle for fuel injection in a motor vehicle, both with a single-stage and with a two-stage translation.
- the contact elements are added by means of the contact connections to the lines in a first method step and in a second step, the piezoelectric element is pushed with the actuator base on the contact elements and then the Aktorfuß firmly connected to the head part of the holding body.
- a test of the contact connections and the high-pressure seals can then be carried out in a simple manner before the first method step.
- a polarity and signal testing of the piezoelectric element is preferably carried out beforehand.
- connections of the lines with the contact elements can be produced for example by welding or soldering or by crimping the respectively opposite ends.
- the ends of the lines and the contact elements can be compressed in an advantageous manner or directly butt joined together.
- the ends of the leads and the contact elements may be overlapping with flats.
- the ends of the lines and the contact elements can also be inserted into openings of a sleeve and then be connected by welding or soldering or by crimping.
- the invention thus enables a high-pressure-tight connection of the parts of the piezoelectric actuator and at the same time a secure electrical connection of the electrical connections, which also, without having to apply the disadvantageous plug principle, achieved a gradual assembly and a stepwise examination of the function of the elements.
- the high-pressure tight in the head part preferably introduced in a molten glass lines can be tested before the entire piezoelectric actuator assembly or the injection valve constructed therewith is mounted.
- the welds or solder joints of the contact connections are initially easily accessible and electrically, mechanically or visually testable and a rework is possibly still possible. Also, possibly a length compensation depending on the selected type of contact connection is possible.
- the piezoelectric element can still be used in another arrangement.
- the invention is possible together with a contacting of the internal electrodes via contact elements lying inside the piezoelectric element, so that insulation can be easily applied to the outside of the piezoelectric element and no electrode wires protrude here.
- the invention is also applicable with an external contact of the internal electrodes, if the necessary precautions are taken.

- the piezoelectric element 3 acts on an actuation, as described above, via a perpendicular here semi-mechanical arrangement with a coupler 8 on a nozzle needle 9 such that a release of a nozzle opening 10 can take place here.
- a guided in the interior of the piezoelectric injector 1 through the interior of the holding body 2 fuel can thus be injected into the combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine, not shown here.
- the piezoelectric layers of the piezoelectric element 3 are according to the figure 1 via an actuator base 11 at the top of a spherical sealing seat in the interior of the holding body 2, wherein the piezoelectric element 3 is pressed to effect a good sealing seat with a spring 12.
- a high-pressure seal to an electrical connection space 13 is necessary here, through which the two electrical lines 4 and 5 are guided to the piezoelectric element 3.
- FIG. 2 shows a part of a piezo injector 20 according to the invention in the assembled state.
- a piezoelectric element 21 is present, in which internal electrodes 22 and 23 are provided with a reference numeral only by way of example, which in the stack structure of the piezoelectric element 21 are mutually supplied with electrical voltage via inner contact elements 24 and 25. Due to the potential gradient when a voltage is applied, the mechanical reaction in the piezoelectric layers 26 made of ceramic films between the internal electrodes 22 and 23, as explained in the introduction to the description, is effected.
- the piezoelectric layers of the piezoelectric element 21 according to FIG. 2 furthermore lie on a ceramic cover plate 27 and an actuator base 28 made of steel on the holding body 29 of the piezoinjector 20, wherein the holding body 29 has a head part 30 which, on the one hand, has a fuel feed 31 and a electrical connection part 32 has.

Ce dispositif présente une structure multicouche de couches piézo-électriques (26) qui sont maintenues sous forme d'élément piézo-électrique (3;21) dans un corps de support (2;29,30). Une mise en contact interne mutuelle d'électrodes internes (22,23) avec des éléments de contact (24,25) est présente sur l'élément piézo-électrique (3;21). Des lignes électriques (34,35) traversent une partie de tête (30) du corps de support (29) jusqu'aux éléments de contact (24,25). Les lignes (34,35) fixement intégrées dans la partie de tête (30) peuvent être connectées aux éléments de contact (24,25) par l'intermédiaire de raccords de contact (37,38).
