Abstract
Description
- The invention relates to a valve assembly for an injection valve and an injection valve.
- Injection valves are in widespread use, in particular for internal combustion engines where they may be arranged in order to dose the fluid into an intake manifold of the internal combustion engine or directly into the combustion chamber of a cylinder of the internal combustion engine.
- Injection valves are manufactured in various forms in order to satisfy the various needs for the various combustion engines. Therefore, for example, their length, their diameter and all the various elements of the injection valve being responsible for the way the fluid is dosed may vary in a wide range. In addition to that, injection valves may accommodate an actuator for actuating a needle of the injection valve, which may, for example, be an electromagnetic actuator or piezoelectric actuator.
- In order to enhance the combustion process in view of the creation of unwanted emissions, the respective injection valve may be suited to dose fluids under very high pressures. The pressures may be in case of a gasoline engine, for example, in the range of up to 200 bar and in the case of a diesel engine in the range of up to 2000 bar.
- The object of the invention is to create a valve assembly for an injection valve and an injection valve which is simply to be manufactured and which facilitates a reliable and precise function.
- This object is achieved by the features of the independent claim. Advantageous embodiments of the invention are given in the sub-claims.
- According to a first aspect the invention is distinguished by a valve assembly of an injection valve, the valve assembly comprising a first valve body including a central longitudinal axis and comprising a first cavity, a second valve body being rigidly coupled to the first valve body and comprising a second cavity with a fluid outlet portion, and a valve needle axially movable in the first cavity and the second cavity, the valve needle preventing a fluid flow through the fluid outlet portion of the second cavity in a closing position and releasing the fluid flow through the fluid outlet portion in further positions, the second valve body comprising a passage being arranged between the first cavity and the second cavity directly upstream the second cavity and being designed to enable a fluid flow from the first cavity to the second cavity. A filter is arranged directly upstream or inside the passage and is designed to filter fluid flowing from the first cavity to the second cavity.
- This has the advantage that a flow of particles from the first cavity to the fluid outlet portion can be avoided. Consequently, a damage of the valve body and/or the valve needle near the fluid outlet portion due to particles can be avoided. Furthermore, a process for press-fitting the first valve body to the second valve body does not need a further control in view of particles being produced during the press-fitting process. Additionally, an elimination of further filters in the flow line is possible.
- In an advantageous embodiment of the invention, a spring is arranged and designed to exert a force on the valve needle in axial direction, and is arranged in a part of the first cavity extending away from the filter in direction of the central longitudinal axis. This has the advantage that a space for the arrangement of the filter is available in the first cavity. The spring can be designed in a small size. Consequently, a low-cost solution for the small spring is possible.
- According to a second aspect the invention is distinguished by an injection valve comprising the valve assembly of one of the foregoing embodiments.
- Exemplary embodiments of the invention are explained in the following with the aid of schematic drawings. These are as follows:
-
Figure 1 , an injection valve in a longitudinal section view, and -
Figure 2 , a part of a valve assembly of the injection valve in a longitudinal section view. - Elements of the same design and function that appear in different illustrations are identified by the same reference characters.
- An injection valve 10 (
figure 1 ) that is used as a fuel injection valve for an internal combustion engine, comprises ahousing 12, avalve assembly 14 and anactuator unit 16. - The
housing 12 has a tubular shape. Theactuator unit 16 is inserted into achamber 38 of thehousing 12 and comprises a piezo actuator, which changes its axial length depending on a control signal applied to it. Theactuator unit 16 may, however, also comprise another type of actuator, which is known to a person skilled in the art for that purpose. Such an actuator may be, for example, a solenoid. - The
valve assembly 14 is inserted into thehousing 12 and comprises afirst valve body 20 with a central longitudinal axis A and afirst cavity 24 which is axially led through thefirst valve body 20. Furthermore, thevalve assembly 14 comprises asecond valve body 21 with asecond cavity 25 which is axially led through thesecond valve body 21. Thefirst valve body 20 and thesecond valve body 21 are rigidly coupled with each other. - In the
first cavity 24 and in the second cavity 25 avalve needle 22 is arranged which is movable in the direction of the central longitudinal axis A. - On one of the free ends of the
second cavity 25 of the second valve body 21 afluid outlet portion 28 is formed which is closed or open depending on the axial position of thevalve needle 22. Outside of the closing position of thevalve needle 22 there is a gap between thesecond valve body 21 and thevalve needle 22 at an axial end of theinjection valve 10 facing away from of theactuator unit 16. The gap forms avalve nozzle 29. - The
injection valve 10 is of an outward opening type. In an alternative embodiment theinjection valve 10 may be of an inward opening type. - The
injection valve 10 further has afluid inlet portion 26 which is arranged in thehousing 12 and which is hydraulically coupled to thefirst cavity 24 and a not shown fuel connector. The fuel connector is designed to be connected to a high pressure fuel chamber of an internal combustion engine; the fuel is stored under high pressure, for example, under the pressure of about 200 bar. - A
passage 40 is arranged in thesecond valve body 21 between thefirst cavity 24 and thesecond cavity 25. Thepassage 40 is arranged directly upstream thesecond cavity 25 and allows a fluid flow from thefirst cavity 24 to thesecond cavity 25. - In the
first cavity 24 directly upstream the passage 40 afilter 42 is arranged. Thefilter 42 enables to filter the fluid from particles, when the fluid is flowing from thefirst cavity 24 to thesecond cavity 25 with thefluid outlet portion 28. Consequently, thevalve nozzle 29 can be protected from particles which can cause damages of thesecond valve body 21 or thevalve needle 22 in the area of thevalve nozzle 29. Due to its ability to filter particles very near to thevalve nozzle 29 it is possible to realize the flow line without the use of further filters. In particular, no filter is needed in the flow line between thefluid inlet portion 26 and thefirst cavity 24. This allows a simple shape of thefirst valve body 20 in an area where the fluid enters thefirst cavity 24. Thefilter 42 can also be arranged inside thepassage 40. This has the advantage that no space for thefilter 42 will be needed inside thefirst cavity 24. - The
second valve body 21 has a valvebody spring rest 32 and thevalve needle 22 comprises a valveneedle spring rest 34, bothspring rests spring 30 arranged between thesecond valve body 21 and thevalve needle 22. Thespring 30 is arranged in a part of thefirst cavity 24 upstream thefilter 42. By this only a small space inside thefirst cavity 24 is needed for thespring 30. Furthermore, the small size of thespring 30 allows a low-cost solution for theinjection valve 10. Thespring 30 can be designed to exert only a small force on thevalve needle 22. Therefore, the valveneedle spring rest 34 can be of a small size as well. This allows a low-cost solution of the valveneedle spring rest 34. - Between the
valve needle 22 and the first valve body 20 abellow 36 is arranged which is sealingly coupling thefirst valve body 20 with thevalve needle 22. By this a fluid flow between thefirst cavity 24 and thechamber 38 with theactuator unit 16 is prevented. Furthermore, thebellow 36 is formed and arranged in a way that theactuator unit 16 can cause an axial movement of thevalve needle 22. -
Figure 2 shows a sectional view of thevalve assembly 14 with thefilter 42. Thefilter 42 is of a frustro-conical shape and has an inner cavity. Thefilter 42 is arranged coaxially to thesecond valve body 21. Thefilter 42 can also be of a hollow cylindrical shape. The inner cavity of thefilter 42 forms aninner surface 46, which is in tight contact with anouter surface 48 of thesecond valve body 21. - In the following, the function of the
injection valve 10 will be described in detail: - The fuel is led from the
fluid inlet portion 26 in thehousing 12 to thefirst cavity 24 of thefirst valve body 20 and then through thepassage 40 to thesecond cavity 25 of thesecond valve body 21 with thefluid outlet portion 28. Thefilter 42 which is arranged in thefirst cavity 24 of thefirst valve body 20 directly upstream thepassage 40 can prevent an intrusion of particles into thesecond cavity 25 of thesecond valve body 21. Consequently, it can be prevented that particles can reach thefluid outlet portion 28 and thevalve nozzle 29. Therefore, a damage of thevalve nozzle 29 due to particles can be prevented. - The fluid flow from the
fluid outlet portion 28 to thechamber 38 with theactuator unit 16 is prevented by thebellow 36. - The
valve needle 22 prevents a fluid flow through thefluid outlet portion 28 in thesecond valve body 21 in a closing position of thevalve needle 22. Outside of the closing position of thevalve needle 22, thevalve needle 22 enables the fluid flow through thefluid outlet portion 28. - In the case that the
actuator unit 16 has a piezoelectric actuator, the piezoelectric actuator may change its axial length if it gets energized in an expansion duration of some micro-seconds. By changing its length theactuator unit 16 may exert a force on thevalve needle 22. Thevalve needle 22 is able to move in axial direction out of the closing position. - The
spring 30 can exert a force on thevalve needle 22 via the valveneedle spring rest 34 towards theactuator unit 16. In the case when theactuator unit 16 is de-energized theactuator unit 16 shortens its length. Thespring 30 can force thevalve needle 22 to move in axial direction in its closing position. It is depending on the force balance between the force on thevalve needle 22 caused by theactuator unit 16 and the force on thevalve needle 22 caused by thespring 30 whether thevalve needle 22 is in its closing position or not. - In the following, the process of manufacturing the
valve assembly 14 will be described: - In a first step, the
first valve body 20 and thesecond valve body 21 are provided and the parts which have to be arranged between thefirst valve body 20 and thesecond valve body 21, as thevalve needle 22, thespring 30, thebellow 36 and thefilter 42 are inserted between thefirst valve body 20 and thesecond valve body 21. - In a further step, after the preassembly of these parts the
second valve body 21 and thefirst valve body 20 are rigidly coupled, in particular by a press-fitting process. - In the case that during the press-fitting process particles are produced in a transition area between the
first valve body 20 and thesecond valve body 21, these particles can be trapped in thefirst cavity 24 of thefirst valve body 20. The fluid flows from thefirst cavity 24 to thesecond cavity 25 through thepassage 40 and the particles produced during the press-fitting process can be filtered by thefilter 42 being arranged upstream thepassage 40. Consequently, it is possible to prevent that particles reach thevalve nozzle 29. Thus, the risk of a damage of thevalve nozzle 29 can be kept small.
