Derartige Aktuatoren weisen ein piezokeramisches Material auf. Derartige Aktuatoren können ihre Längsausdehnung verändern abhängig von einem elektrischen Feld, das in dem piezokeramischen Material wirkt. Des Weiteren kann eine Hebelvorrichtung vorgesehen sein, die den Hub des Aktuators übersetzt. Injection valves for an internal combustion engine of a motor vehicle may have actuators which are designed in particular as piezoactuators. Such actuators have a piezoceramic material.

Piezoelectric actuators, which are used as actuators, in particular in injection valves for internal combustion engines in motor vehicles, are arranged in a housing so that a lifting movement in the axial direction can be performed.
Die Aufgabe der Erfindung ist, eine Hebelvorrichtung für ein Einspritzventil zu schaffen, die dauerhaft zuverlässig ist. Die Aufgabe ist ferner, ein Einspritzventil zu schaffen, das eine lange Lebensdauer hat. The object of the invention is to provide a lever device for an injection valve, which is permanently reliable. The object is also to provide an injection valve, which has a long life.
Die Aufgabe wird gelöst durch die Merkmale der unabhängigen Patentansprüche. Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind in den Unteransprüchen gekennzeichnet. Gemäß eines ersten Aspekts zeichnet sich die Erfindung aus durch eine Hebelvorrichtung für ein Einspritzventil, mit einem Gehäuse, das eine Gehäuseausnehmung aufweist, mindestens einem Hebelelement, das in der Gehäuseausnehmung angeordnet ist, einem Antriebselement, das in der Gehäuseausnehmung angeordnet ist und mit dem mindestens einen Hebelelement gekoppelt ist zum Einwirken auf das mindestens eine Hebelelement in Richtung einer The object is solved by the features of the independent claims. Advantageous developments of the invention are characterized in the subclaims. According to a first aspect, the invention is characterized by a lever device for an injection valve, with a housing having a housing recess, at least one lever element which is arranged in the housing recess, a drive element which is arranged in the housing recess and with the at least one Lever element is coupled to act on the at least one lever element in the direction of a
Kraftwirkungsachse, und einem in der Gehäuseausnehmung angeordneten Abtriebselement. Das Abtriebselement ist derart mit dem mindestens einen Hebelelement gekoppelt, dass das Force action axis, and arranged in the housing recess output member. The output element is coupled to the at least one lever element such that the
Abtriebselement mittels des mindestens einen Hebelelements in Richtung der Kraftwirkungsachse bewegbar ist. Das mindestens eine Hebelelement weist einen Kopplungsabschnitt auf, der derart ausgebildet oder angeordnet ist, dass das mindestens eine Hebelelement mit dem Gehäuse oder dem Abtriebselement drehfest bezüglich der Kraftwirkungsachse gekoppelt ist. Output element by means of the at least one lever element in the direction of the force action axis is movable. The at least one lever element has a coupling section which is designed or arranged such that the at least one lever element is coupled to the housing or the driven element in a rotationally fixed manner with respect to the force action axis.
Das mindestens eine Hebelelement ist gegenüber dem Gehäuse oder dem Abtriebselement rotatorisch fixiert bezüglich der Kraft- wirkungsachse . The at least one lever element is rotationally fixed with respect to the housing or the driven element with respect to the force axis of action.
Dies hat den Vorteil, dass das mindestens eine Hebelelement gegenüber dem Gehäuse oder dem Abtriebselement an einer Rotationsbewegung gehindert ist, wodurch Veränderungen der Einspritzmengen, die durch eine derartige Rotationsbewegung des mindestens einen Hebelelements entstehen können, vermieden werden können. Das mindestens eine Hebelelement ist so zuverlässig gegenüber dem Gehäuse oder dem Abtriebselement positioniert. Dadurch kann ein dauerhaft zuverlässiger Betrieb der Hebelvorrichtung ermöglicht werden. This has the advantage that the at least one lever element relative to the housing or the driven element is prevented from rotating, whereby changes in the injection quantities, which can be caused by such a rotational movement of the at least one lever element, can be avoided. The at least one lever element is positioned so reliably relative to the housing or the driven element. As a result, a permanently reliable operation of the lever device can be made possible.
In einer vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung weist der Kopplungsabschnitt des Hebelelements einen planen Wandabschnitt auf, und das Abtriebselement weist einen planen Wandabschnitt auf. Der plane Wandabschnitt des Hebelelements wirkt derart mit dem planen Wandabschnitt des Abtriebselements zusammen, dass das mindestens eine Hebelelement mit dem Abtriebselement drehfest bezüglich der Kraftwirkungsachse gekoppelt ist. In an advantageous embodiment, the coupling portion of the lever member on a flat wall portion, and the output element has a flat wall portion. The plane Wall portion of the lever member cooperates with the planar wall portion of the output element such that the at least one lever element is rotatably coupled to the output element with respect to the force action axis.
Der plane Wandabschnitt des Hebelelements und der plane Wandabschnitt des Abtriebselements sind insbesondere plan in einer Ebene, die annähernd planparallel zur Kraftwirkungsachse ist . The planar wall section of the lever element and the planar wall section of the output element are in particular planar in a plane which is approximately plane-parallel to the force action axis.
Dies hat den Vorteil, dass die planen Wandabschnitte des Hebelelements und des Abtriebselements fertigungstechnisch besonders einfach zu realisieren sind. Damit können das Hebelelement und das Abtriebselement in sehr einfacher und zuver- lässiger Weise hergestellt werden. Des Weiteren kann eine Rotationsbewegung des Hebelelements gegenüber dem This has the advantage that the planar wall sections of the lever element and the output element are particularly easy to realize in terms of manufacturing technology. Thus, the lever element and the output element can be produced in a very simple and reliable manner. Furthermore, a rotational movement of the lever element relative to the
Abtriebselement zuverlässig verhindert werden. Output element can be reliably prevented.
In einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung weist der Kopplungsabschnitt des Hebelelements einen planen Wandabschnitt auf, und die Gehäuseausnehmung weist einen planen Wandabschnitt auf. Der plane Wandabschnitt des Hebelelements wirkt derart mit dem planen Wandabschnitt der Gehäuseausnehmung zusammen, dass das mindestens eine Hebelelement mit dem Gehäuse drehfest bezüglich der Kraftwirkungsachse gekoppelt ist. In a further advantageous refinement, the coupling section of the lever element has a planar wall section, and the housing recess has a planar wall section. The planar wall section of the lever element interacts with the planar wall section of the housing recess such that the at least one lever element is coupled to the housing in a rotationally fixed manner with respect to the force action axis.
Der plane Wandabschnitt des Hebelelements und der plane Wandabschnitt der Gehäuseausnehmung sind insbesondere plan in einer Ebene, die annähernd planparallel zur Kraftwirkungsachse ist. The planar wall section of the lever element and the planar wall section of the housing recess are in particular planar in a plane which is approximately plane-parallel to the force action axis.
Dies hat den Vorteil, dass das Hebelelement und das Gehäuse in sehr einfacher Weise gefertigt sein können.

Furthermore, can a rotational movement of the lever member relative to the housing to be reliably prevented.
In einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung weist der Kopplungsabschnitt des Hebelelements eine Ausnehmung auf, und das Gehäuse weist einen Stift auf. Der Stift ist derart in der Ausnehmung des Kopplungsabschnitts des Hebelelements angeordnet, dass das mindestens eine Hebelelement mit dem Gehäuse drehfest bezüglich der Kraftwirkungsachse gekoppelt ist. Dies hat den Vorteil, dass so eine Rotationsbewegung des Hebelelements gegenüber dem Gehäuse besonders zuverlässig verhindert werden kann . In a further advantageous embodiment, the coupling portion of the lever element has a recess, and the housing has a pin. The pin is arranged in the recess of the coupling portion of the lever member such that the at least one lever member is rotatably coupled to the housing with respect to the force action axis. This has the advantage that such a rotational movement of the lever member relative to the housing can be particularly reliably prevented.
Gemäß eines zweiten Aspekts zeichnet sich die Erfindung aus durch ein Einspritzventil, das die Hebelvorrichtung und eine Ventilnadel umfasst. Die Ventilnadel ist mit dem Abtriebselement gekoppelt oder bildet das Abtriebselement. Das Antriebselement und die Ventilnadel sind derart über die Hebelvorrichtung miteinander gekoppelt, dass abhängig von einem Stellsignal die Ventilnadel in einer Schließposition einen Fluidfluss durch das Einspritzventil verhindert und diesen ansonsten freigibt. Aufgrund der Kopplung des Hebelelements gegenüber dem Gehäuse beziehungsweise der Ventilnadel kann ein solches Ventil dauerhaft zuverlässig betrieben werden. According to a second aspect, the invention is characterized by an injection valve, which comprises the lever device and a valve needle. The valve needle is coupled to the output element or forms the output element. The drive element and the valve needle are coupled to one another via the lever device in such a way that, depending on a control signal, the valve needle prevents fluid flow through the injection valve in a closed position and otherwise releases it. Due to the coupling of the lever member relative to the housing or the valve needle, such a valve can be operated permanently reliable.

A stroke of the drive element 26 is dependent on an axial extent of the piezoelectric actuator 24, which depends on a
Stellsignal ist, das dem piezoelektrischen Aktuator 24 zugeführt werden kann. Das Antriebselement 26 umfasst ferner ein vorzugsweise glockenförmiges Bauelement 27. Control signal is that can be supplied to the piezoelectric actuator 24. The drive element 26 further comprises a preferably bell-shaped component 27.
In der Gehäuseausnehmung 14 des Einspritzventils 10 ist ferner eine Hebelvorrichtung 28 angeordnet. Die Hebelvorrichtung 28 umfasst das Antriebselement 26 und ein Hebelelement 30 oder mehrere Hebelelemente 30. In den gezeigten Ausführungsformen hat die Hebelvorrichtung 28 zwei Hebelelemente 30. Die Hebelelemente 30 sind mit dem Antriebselement 26 gekoppelt. Ferner sind die Hebelelemente 30 mit einem Abtriebselement 32 gekoppelt. Das Abtriebselement 32 ist in der Gehäuseausnehmung 14 angeordnet. Das Abtriebselement 32 ist vorzugsweise mit der Ventilnadel 20 gekoppelt. Die Ventilnadel 20 kann auch das Abtriebselement 32 bilden. Das Antriebselement 26, das Hebelelement 30 und das Abtriebselement 32 wirken derart zusammen, dass der Hub des Antriebselements 26 auf die Ventilnadel 20 übertragen wird und dass die Ventilnadel 20 damit in ihre Schließposition oder in eine Offenposition bewegt wird. In the housing recess 14 of the injection valve 10, a lever device 28 is further arranged. The lever device 28 comprises the drive element 26 and a lever element 30 or a plurality of lever elements 30. In the embodiments shown, the lever device 28 has two lever elements 30. The lever elements 30 are coupled to the drive element 26. Furthermore, the lever elements 30 are coupled to an output element 32. The output element 32 is arranged in the housing recess 14. The output element 32 is preferably coupled to the valve needle 20. The valve needle 20 may also form the output element 32. The drive member 26, the lever member 30 and the output member 32 cooperate such that the stroke of the drive member 26 is transmitted to the valve needle 20 and that the valve needle 20 is thus moved to its closed position or to an open position.
Eine Kraftwirkungsachse A einer Antriebskraft des Antriebselements 26 verläuft durch das Antriebselement 26 und als Kraftwirkungsachse einer Abtriebskraft weiter durch das Abtriebselement 32. In weiteren Ausführungsformen ist die Kraftwirkungsachse durch das Antriebselement 26 versetzt zu der Kraftwirkungsachse durch das Abtriebselement 32. Figur 2 zeigt eine erste Ausführungsform der Hebelvorrichtung 28 in einem Querschnitt. A force action axis A of a drive force of the drive member 26 passes through the drive member 26 and as a force action axis of a driven force further through the Output element 32. In further embodiments, the force action axis is offset by the drive element 26 to the force action axis by the output element 32. Figure 2 shows a first embodiment of the lever device 28 in a cross section.
Die Hebelelemente 30 haben jeweils einen Kopplungsabschnitt 34. In der in Figur 2 gezeigten Ausführungsform hat das The lever elements 30 each have a coupling portion 34. In the embodiment shown in Figure 2 has the
Abtriebselement 32 zwei plane Wandabschnitte 36. Die planen Wandabschnitte 36 liegen einander bezüglich der Kraftwirkungsachse A des Abtriebselements 32 gegenüber. Des Weiteren haben die Kopplungsabschnitte 34 der Hebelelemente 30 jeweils einen planen Wandabschnitt 38. Die planen Wandabschnitte 38 der Hebelelemente 30 sind den planen Wandabschnitten 36 des Abtriebselements 32 zugeordnet. Jeweils einer der planen Wandabschnitte 38 des Hebelelements 30 liegt einem planen Wandabschnitt 36 des Abtriebselements 32 gegenüber. Damit wirken die planen Wandabschnitte 36 des Abtriebselements 32 mit den planen Wandabschnitten 38 des Hebelelements 30 zusammen, und ermöglichen somit, dass die Hebelelemente 30 mit dem Output element 32 has two planar wall sections 36. The planar wall sections 36 are opposite to each other with respect to the force action axis A of the output element 32. Furthermore, the coupling sections 34 of the lever elements 30 each have a planar wall section 38. The planar wall sections 38 of the lever elements 30 are assigned to the planar wall sections 36 of the output element 32. In each case one of the planar wall sections 38 of the lever element 30 is opposite to a planar wall section 36 of the output element 32. Thus, the planar wall portions 36 of the output member 32 cooperate with the planar wall portions 38 of the lever member 30, and thus allow the lever members 30 with the
Abtriebselement 32 drehfest bezüglich der Kraftwirkungsachse A gekoppelt sind. Damit kann erreicht werden, dass sich die Hebelelemente 30 nicht mehr gegenüber der Ventilnadel 20 drehen können. Damit können auch die Verhältnisse bei der Einspritzung des Einspritzventils 10 über viele Einspritzvorgänge konstant gehalten werden. Output element 32 rotatably with respect to the force axis A are coupled. It can thus be achieved that the lever elements 30 can no longer rotate with respect to the valve needle 20. Thus, the conditions in the injection of the injection valve 10 can be kept constant over many injection events.
In der in Figur 3 gezeigten Ausführungsform der Hebelvorrichtung 28 haben die Kopplungsabschnitte 34 der Hebelelemente 30 plane Wandabschnitte 38. Die Gehäuseausnehmung 14 des Gehäuses 12 hat zwei plane Wandabschnitte 40, die einander bezüglich der Kraftwirkungsachse A gegenüberliegen. Jeweils einer der planen Wandabschnitte 38 eines der Hebelelemente 30 wirkt mit einem der planen Wandabschnitte 40 der Gehäuseausnehmung 14 zusammen. Dadurch kann erreicht werden, dass das Hebelelement 30 mit dem Gehäuse 12 drehfest bezüglich der Kraftwirkungsachse A gekoppelt ist. Durch die drehfeste Kopplung der Hebelelemente 30 mit dem Gehäuse 12 ist es möglich, dass die Kontaktbedingungen zwischen den Hebelelementen 30 und dem Gehäuse 12 über einen langen Zeitraum konstant gehalten werden können. Damit kann auch das Einspritzverhalten des Einspritzventils 10 über einen langen Zeitraum konstant gehalten werden. In the embodiment of the lever device 28 shown in FIG. 3, the coupling sections 34 of the lever elements 30 have planar wall sections 38. The housing recess 14 of the housing 12 has two planar wall sections 40 facing one another with respect to the force action axis A. In each case one of the planar wall sections 38 of one of the lever elements 30 acts with one of plan wall portions 40 of the housing recess 14 together. It can thereby be achieved that the lever element 30 is coupled to the housing 12 in a rotationally fixed manner with respect to the force action axis A. By the rotationally fixed coupling of the lever members 30 to the housing 12, it is possible that the contact conditions between the lever members 30 and the housing 12 can be kept constant over a long period of time. Thus, the injection behavior of the injection valve 10 can be kept constant over a long period of time.
In der in den Figuren 4 und 5 gezeigten Ausführungsform sind in der Zwischenscheibe 12a des Gehäuses 12 Bohrungen angeordnet. Die Bohrungen sind insbesondere als Sacklöcher ausgebildet. In den Bohrungen sind Stifte 42 angeordnet. In the embodiment shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, bores are arranged in the intermediate disk 12a of the housing 12. The holes are formed in particular as blind holes. In the holes pins 42 are arranged.
Die Kopplungsabschnitte 34 der Hebelelemente 30 haben jeweils eine Ausnehmung 44. Die Stifte 42 greifen in die Ausnehmungen 44 der Kopplungsabschnitte 34 der Hebelelemente 30 ein. Damit kann erreicht werden, dass die Hebelelemente 30 drehfest mit der Zwischenscheibe 12a des Gehäuses 12 bezüglich der Kraftwirkungsachse A gekoppelt sind. The coupling sections 34 of the lever elements 30 each have a recess 44. The pins 42 engage in the recesses 44 of the coupling sections 34 of the lever elements 30. It can thus be achieved that the lever elements 30 are rotationally fixedly coupled to the intermediate disk 12a of the housing 12 with respect to the force action axis A.
Durch die drehfeste Kopplung zwischen den Hebelelementen 30 und dem Gehäuse 12 kann erreicht werden, dass die Hebelelemente 30 auch über eine Vielzahl von Einspritzvorgängen eine festeDue to the non-rotatable coupling between the lever members 30 and the housing 12 can be achieved that the lever elements 30 also a plurality of injection processes a fixed
Position gegenüber dem Gehäuse 12 einnehmen können. Dadurch können auch über eine Vielzahl von Einspritzvorgängen des Einspritzventils 10 stabile Einspritzverhältnisse des Einspritzventils 10 erreicht werden. Dadurch kann erreicht werden, dass sich Bauteiltoleranzen nur geringfügig auf die Einspritzmengen des Einspritzventils 10 auswirken. Position opposite the housing 12 can take. As a result, 10 stable injection conditions of the injection valve 10 can be achieved via a variety of injection processes of the injection valve 10. It can thereby be achieved that component tolerances have only a slight effect on the injection quantities of the injection valve 10.
