Definitions
- the present invention relates to an injection valve utilized for spraying fuel to the combustion chamber in internal combustion engines in a controlled manner and having a piezo electric member and a piston group.
- Said injection valves are used for spraying fuel into the combustion chamber in internal combustion engines.
- the injection valves are classified according to different operation principles thereof.
- the injection valves, which have piezo electric members, are called piezo injection valves.
- Piezo injection valves are essentially described in WO 2005 050003 (A1 ).
- Piezo injection valves have a piezo electric member which shortens and lengthens with respect to current. Piezo electric members are essentially disclosed in the patent DE 199 46 835 A1 . Said piezo electric member is called actuator in the injection valve.
- the actuators exist in a bedded manner into the silicon inside a cylindrical bushing. This is disclosed in the patent application DE 102 009 046355 (A1 ). Shoes are placed for transferring the movement at the lower and upper parts of the actuators. The bedding of the actuators inside the shoes is essentially disclosed in the patent application EP 2 031 669 A1 . The actuators shorten and lengthen under a certain current, and movement is transferred to the pistons in order for the drive to be transferred to the needle region.
- the piston existing in the needle region, increases the movement at a predetermined ratio and it transmits the movement to the valve piston and provides the injection valve to be opened and to begin the spraying process.
- the pistons existing at the continuation of the actuator, receive the drive from the actuator and they transmit the drive to the needle region.
- Two pistons which have different diameters and lengths, increase the drive produced by the actuator and they transfer axial movement to the needle region.
- the liquid compressing characteristic is utilized.
- the liquid which is compressed by means of pressure by the first piston, forces the second piston to move axially and thus, the second piston is moved.
- the injection valves having this system are essentially described in the patent FR 2819021 (A1 ).
- There is a washer at the actuator side of the first piston and said washer helps in providing the sealing.
- the actuator Since the actuator is connected firstly to a lower shoe and since the drive, produced by the actuator, is transferred to the piston by the additional members existing between the lower shoe and the first piston, damages may occur in the lower shoe and in the additional members and this makes the injection valve useless. Since there is excessive number of members, rigidity is deteriorated during operation. The spring bearing, existing on the piston, can be broken under pressure during operation and because of this, the injection valve becomes useless. Since there are additional members between the pieces which transmit the drive inside the injection valve, the voltage requirement of the injection valve increases. Because of the abovementioned reasons, the production costs of the injection valve increase and moreover, the usage lifetime is shortened.
- the present invention relates to an injection valve which is used for spraying fuel to the combustion chamber in internal combustion engines and which has a piezo electric member and which has a piston group, in order to eliminate the abovementioned problems and to bring new advantages to the related technical field.
- the main object of the present invention is to provide an injection valve which has a single piece spring bearing on the piston.

- the electrical current applied to the actuator (34) is interrupted and the actuator (24) is shortened in -X direction by means of the spring (25) and it returns to the initial position thereof. Since the drive existing on the pistons (31, 32) is eliminated, the pistons (31, 32) return in -X direction and the drive existing in the needle region (12) is interrupted and the spraying process is ended.
- the pre-tensioned spring existing in the piston region (30), is taken onto the actuator (24), and in the piston region (30), the shapes of the body (13) and of the pistons (31, 32) are simplified.
- the spring bearing which is engaged onto the second piston (32) for the piston spring (34) by means of the nailing method in the prior art, is eliminated, and the spring bearing, which is embodied by means of the bearing tab (322) provided on the upper part (321) to the second piston (32), eliminates the rigidity problems which may occur during operation.
- the general rigidity of the injection valve may decrease and problems may occur during operation. As the number of the pieces decreases, the rigidity of the injection valve (10) is increased and at the same time, the amount of voltage requirement is decreased.
