Description

本発明は、ディーゼル内燃機関にあって燃料供給路としてコモンレールと燃料ポンプ及びそれぞれノズルホルダーに接続して配置される比較的厚肉、細径からなるディーゼルエンジン用高圧燃料噴射管の接続構造に関する。   The present invention relates to a connection structure for a high-pressure fuel injection pipe for a diesel engine having a relatively thick wall and a small diameter, which is disposed in a diesel internal combustion engine and connected to a common rail, a fuel pump and a nozzle holder as fuel supply paths.

従来、この種のディーゼルエンジン用高圧燃料噴射管としては、外径5〜25mm、肉厚2〜10mm程度の比較的厚肉、細径の鋼管が使用されてきた。ディーゼルエンジン用高圧燃料噴射管は、燃料噴射ポンプからエンジンの各気筒に設けられた燃料噴射弁に向け燃料を圧送する役目を担うもので、流速が最大で50m/sec、内圧1000barを超える高圧条件下に曝され、近年油送圧力はますます高まる傾向にある。そのため高圧に耐えて燃料の漏洩を起こさない確実強固な接続構造が望まれる。   Conventionally, as this type of high-pressure fuel injection pipe for a diesel engine, a relatively thick and thin steel pipe having an outer diameter of 5 to 25 mm and a wall thickness of about 2 to 10 mm has been used. The high-pressure fuel injection pipe for diesel engines plays the role of pumping fuel from the fuel injection pump to the fuel injection valve installed in each cylinder of the engine. The flow rate is 50 m / sec at maximum and the internal pressure exceeds 1000 bar. In recent years, oil feed pressure has been increasing. Therefore, a reliable and strong connection structure that can withstand high pressure and does not cause fuel leakage is desired.

ディーゼルエンジン用高圧燃料噴射管としては、例えば厚肉鋼管先端部をプレス加工によるズクミ成形により頭部を膨出させて、その膨出部に袋ナットを掛けて相手部材と締結したものや、図12に示すように、高圧燃料噴射管10先端の膨出部10−1の直後に嵌合した円筒状のスリーブ11に袋ナット12を掛けて相手部材13と螺合して締結する接続構造等が知られている。これらの接続構造では、高圧燃料噴射管10先端の膨出部10−1内側にはポケット10−2と呼ばれる空洞が生じ、さらにはそのポケット10−2の最深部には亀裂16が高圧燃料噴射管10の肉厚方向に発生し、また同時にポケット10−2の内部軸方向に皺17が発生し、それらの亀裂16や皺17を起点として疲労割れを引き起こし、高圧燃料噴射管の耐圧機能を低下させていた。
このため亀裂16や皺17の発生原因となる高圧燃料噴射管先端の膨出部の形成を避ける方法として、図13に示すように、高圧燃料噴射管10の先端に異なる肉厚を有するテーパー付きスリーブ11’を嵌合させ、該テーパー付きスリーブ11’に袋ナット12を掛けて相手部材13と螺合して締結する接続構造も提案されている(例えば、特許文献1参照)。

As a high-pressure fuel injection pipe for a diesel engine, for example, a thick-walled steel pipe tip is bulged by press forming and the head is bulged, and a cap nut is hung on the bulged part and fastened with a mating member. As shown in FIG. 12, the connection structure etc. which hung the bag nut 12 on the cylindrical sleeve 11 fitted just after the bulging part 10-1 of the front-end | tip of the high-pressure fuel-injection pipe 10, and screw and fasten it with the other member 13 etc. It has been known. In these connection structures, a cavity called a pocket 10-2 is formed inside the bulging portion 10-1 at the tip of the high-pressure fuel injection pipe 10, and a crack 16 is formed in the deepest portion of the pocket 10-2. It occurs in the thickness direction of the pipe 10 and simultaneously, soot 17 is generated in the direction of the internal axis of the pocket 10-2, causing fatigue cracks starting from these cracks 16 and soot 17, and the pressure resistance function of the high-pressure fuel injection pipe It was decreasing.
For this reason, as a method of avoiding the formation of the bulging portion at the tip of the high-pressure fuel injection pipe that causes the crack 16 and the flaw 17, as shown in FIG. There has also been proposed a connection structure in which a sleeve 11 ′ is fitted, a cap nut 12 is hung on the tapered sleeve 11 ′, and the mating member 13 is screwed and fastened (for example, see Patent Document 1).

しかしながら図13に示した接続構造では、高圧燃料噴射管10の外径表面とテーパー付きスリーブ11’の内表面との間の気密保持、あるいはテーパー付きスリーブ11’の外径表面と相手部材13の受圧座面との間の気密保持に難点があり、管内を流通する油の圧力が高まるに伴って油の漏洩を起こすという問題があった。

本発明に係るディーゼルエンジン用高圧燃料噴射管の接続構造としては、内周面に浅く滑らかな環状凹部を有する筒形スリーブを高圧燃料噴射管の頭部に外嵌した状態で該高圧燃料噴射管の接続頭部をプレス膨出加工にて拡径して前記スリーブの環状凹部に高圧燃料噴射管接続頭部外周面を食い込ませて固着した構成となしたもの、あるいは異なる肉厚を有するテーパ面付きスリーブの内周面に環状溝を形成し、該スリーブを高圧燃料噴射管の頭部に外嵌した状態で該高圧燃料噴射管の接続頭部をプレス膨出加工にて拡径して前記環状溝高圧燃料噴射管接続頭部の外周面を食い込ませて固着した構成としたもの、または高圧燃料噴射管接続頭部外周に環状突起を形成し、異なる肉厚を有するテーパ面付きスリーブを高圧燃料噴射管の頭部に外嵌した状態で径方向にプレスしてスリーブ内周面を高圧燃料噴射管接続頭部外周に食い込ませて固着した構成としたもの、あるいは異なる肉厚を有するテーパ付きスリーブの内周面に環状突起を形成し、該スリーブを高圧燃料噴射管の頭部に外嵌した状態で径方向にプレスして前記環状突起を高圧燃料噴射管接続頭部の外周面に食い込ませて固着した構成としたもの、さらに高圧燃料噴射管接続頭部と相手部材とを締付けナットにより締結した状態において、前記高圧燃料噴射管接続頭部に固着したスリーブの端部と前記相手部材受圧座面との間に隙間を設けた構成としたもの、または高圧燃料噴射管接続頭部と相手部材とを締付けナットにより締結した状態において、前記高圧燃料噴射管接続頭部に固着したスリーブの端部が当該接続頭部外周面と相手部材の受圧座面にくさび状に食い込み圧入されている構成となしたものである。   As a connection structure for a high-pressure fuel injection pipe for a diesel engine according to the present invention, the high-pressure fuel injection pipe is fitted in a state where a cylindrical sleeve having a shallow annular recess that is shallow on the inner peripheral surface is fitted over the head of the high-pressure fuel injection pipe. The diameter of the connecting head is expanded by press bulging and the outer peripheral surface of the high pressure fuel injection pipe connecting head is bitten into the annular recess of the sleeve, or a tapered surface having a different thickness An annular groove is formed on the inner peripheral surface of the attached sleeve, and the connecting head of the high pressure fuel injection pipe is expanded in diameter by press bulging while the sleeve is externally fitted to the head of the high pressure fuel injection pipe. The outer peripheral surface of the annular groove high-pressure fuel injection pipe connection head is inserted and fixed, or an annular protrusion is formed on the outer periphery of the high-pressure fuel injection pipe connection head, and a sleeve with a tapered surface having a different thickness is high pressure. Outside the head of the fuel injection pipe In such a state, the sleeve is pressed in the radial direction so that the inner peripheral surface of the sleeve bites into the outer periphery of the connection head of the high-pressure fuel injection pipe, or an annular protrusion is formed on the inner peripheral surface of the tapered sleeve having a different thickness. Formed and pressed in the radial direction in a state in which the sleeve is externally fitted to the head of the high-pressure fuel injection pipe, and the annular protrusion is bitten into the outer peripheral surface of the high-pressure fuel injection pipe connection head, Further, in a state where the high pressure fuel injection pipe connection head and the mating member are fastened by a tightening nut, a gap is provided between the end of the sleeve fixed to the high pressure fuel injection pipe connection head and the mating member pressure receiving seat surface. Or the end of the sleeve fixed to the high pressure fuel injection pipe connection head is the connection head in a state where the high pressure fuel injection pipe connection head and the mating member are fastened by a tightening nut. The pressure receiving seat surface of the peripheral surface and the mating member is obtained without the configuration being pressed bite in a wedge shape.

本発明において、前記スリーブの高圧燃料噴射管接続頭部への食い込み深さhまたは高圧燃料噴射管接続頭部外周面の前記スリーブへの食い込み深さhを、当該スリーブの肉厚Wの1/6〜1/3としたのは、1/6未満ではスリーブの固着強度が十分に得られず、他方、1/3を超えるとスリーブ自体の肉厚が薄くなり強度が低下するためである。   In the present invention, the biting depth h of the sleeve into the high pressure fuel injection pipe connecting head or the biting depth h of the outer peripheral surface of the high pressure fuel injection pipe connecting head into the sleeve is 1 / th of the wall thickness W of the sleeve. The reason why the thickness is set to 6 to 1/3 is that when the sleeve is less than 1/6, sufficient fixing strength of the sleeve cannot be obtained, and when it exceeds 1/3, the thickness of the sleeve itself is reduced and the strength is lowered.

また、高圧燃料噴射管接続頭部と相手部材とを締付けナットにより締結した状態において、前記高圧燃料噴射管接続頭部に固着したスリーブの端部と前記相手部材受圧座面との間に隙間を設けることとしたのは、高圧燃料噴射管と相手部材との繰返し脱着の際スリーブで相手側シート面を傷付け、または変形させることによる洩れを防ぐためである。   Further, in a state where the high pressure fuel injection pipe connection head and the mating member are fastened by a tightening nut, a gap is formed between the end of the sleeve fixed to the high pressure fuel injection pipe connection head and the mating member pressure receiving seat surface. The reason for this is to prevent leakage due to damage or deformation of the mating sheet surface by the sleeve when the high pressure fuel injection pipe and the mating member are repeatedly detached.

また、高圧燃料噴射管接続頭部と相手部材とを締付けナットにより締結した状態において、前記高圧燃料噴射管接続頭部に固着したスリーブの端部が当該接続頭部外周面と相手部材の受圧座面にくさび状に食い込み圧入させることとしたのは、スリーブ先端のくさび効果によって締付けを増すごとにスリーブが食い込み気密性をより向上させることと、スリーブの固着をより強化するためである。   Further, in a state where the high pressure fuel injection pipe connection head and the mating member are fastened by a tightening nut, the end of the sleeve fixed to the high pressure fuel injection pipe connection head is the connection head outer peripheral surface and the pressure receiving seat of the mating member. The reason why the surface is wedged and press-fitted into the surface is that the sleeve bites into the sleeve as the tightening effect is increased due to the wedge effect at the tip of the sleeve, and that the sleeve is more firmly fixed.

本発明の高圧燃料噴射管接続頭部外周に固着するスリーブの材質として、当該高圧燃料噴射管の抗張力の少なくとも20%以上の抗張力を有することとしたのは、抗張力が20%未満では噴射管接続頭部の変形(へたり)より先にスリーブが変形(へたり)すると、気密に必要な締付け力を得ることができないためである。   The material of the sleeve fixed to the outer periphery of the high pressure fuel injection pipe connection head according to the present invention has a tensile strength of at least 20% or more of the tensile strength of the high pressure fuel injection pipe when the tensile strength is less than 20%. This is because if the sleeve is deformed (sagging) before the head is deformed (sagging), the necessary tightening force cannot be obtained in an airtight manner.

さらに、前記高圧燃料噴射管として、管内に薄肉のオーステナイト系ステンレス鋼製の内管を密嵌状に内装した二重管からなる厚肉鋼管を用い、該噴射管の接続頭部の先端部を覆うように前記ステンレス製の内管の先端部を外側に折り曲げてシート面を形成することにより、気密が強固に維持されるのみならず、燃料との接液部分には鉄系材料等の露出部が存在せず、その優れた防錆能が得られる。   Further, as the high-pressure fuel injection pipe, a thick-walled steel pipe made of a double pipe in which a thin-walled austenitic stainless steel inner pipe is tightly fitted in the pipe is used, and the tip of the connecting head of the injection pipe is used. By folding the tip of the stainless steel inner tube outward to form a sheet surface, not only the airtightness is firmly maintained, but also the exposed parts such as iron-based materials are exposed to the fuel contact part There is no part, and the excellent antirust ability is obtained.

本発明に係るディーゼルエンジン用高圧燃料噴射管の接続構造を得るためのスリーブの具体的固着手段として、例えばプレス膨出加工法を採用する場合は、高圧燃料噴射管接続頭部に当該接続頭部の先端部をのぞかせた状態で、内周面に浅く滑らかな環状凹部を形成した筒形スリーブを外嵌して下型にチャッキングしてセットし、次いで前記接続頭部の先端を上型(パンチ)にて管軸方向に押圧プレス加工して、当該接続頭部を拡径して膨出させて前記スリーブの環状凹部に高圧燃料噴射管接続頭部外周面を食い込ませて当該スリーブを高圧燃料噴射管接続頭部に固着する。しかる後、前記筒形スリーブ端部より突出している高圧燃料噴射管接続頭部の先端部をプレス加工や切削加工等により相手部材のシート面(受圧座面)に対応するシート面(押圧座面)を形成し、高圧燃料噴射管の接続頭部のシート面(押圧座面)に相手部材のシート面(受圧座面)を当接係合させるとともに、予め高圧燃料噴射管に組込んだ締付けナットを前記筒形スリーブに螺着し締付けて締結する。かかる構成の接続構造は、前記高圧燃料噴射管接続頭部に固着したスリーブの端部と前記相手部材受圧座面との間に隙間を有している。
なお、本固着手段においては、前記スリーブ環状凹部に噴射管接続頭部を膨出させて食い込ませて固定する工程と、噴射管接続頭部先端を押圧面としてのシート面形成するために行うプレス工程を同時に行ってもよいことはいうまでもない。
As a specific fixing means of the sleeve for obtaining the connection structure of the high-pressure fuel injection pipe for diesel engines according to the present invention, for example, when the press bulging method is adopted, the connection head is connected to the high-pressure fuel injection pipe connection head. In a state where the front end portion of the connecting head is viewed, a cylindrical sleeve having a shallow and smooth annular recess formed on the inner peripheral surface is externally fitted and chucked and set on the lower die, and then the tip of the connecting head is placed on the upper die ( Punch) in the direction of the pipe axis, the diameter of the connecting head is expanded and bulged, and the outer peripheral surface of the high pressure fuel injection pipe connecting head is bitten into the annular recess of the sleeve so that the sleeve is pressurized. Adheres to the fuel injection pipe connection head. After that, a sheet surface (pressing seat surface) corresponding to the sheet surface (pressure receiving seat surface) of the mating member is formed by pressing or cutting the tip of the high pressure fuel injection pipe connecting head protruding from the end of the cylindrical sleeve. ), And the seat surface (pressing seat surface) of the mating member is brought into contact with and engaged with the seat surface (pressing seat surface) of the connection head of the high pressure fuel injection pipe, and tightened in advance into the high pressure fuel injection pipe A nut is screwed onto the cylindrical sleeve and fastened. The connection structure having such a configuration has a gap between the end of the sleeve fixed to the connection head of the high-pressure fuel injection pipe and the mating member pressure-receiving seat surface.
The fixing means includes a step of expanding and biting the injection pipe connection head into the sleeve annular recess, and a press performed to form a sheet surface as a pressing surface at the tip of the injection pipe connection head. Needless to say, the steps may be performed simultaneously.

また、スリーブの内周面に環状溝を形成し、該環状溝に高圧燃料噴射管接続頭部の外周面を食い込ませるプレス膨出加工方式を採用する場合は、例えば高圧燃料噴射管接続頭部に当該接続頭部の先端部をのぞかせた状態で前記スリーブを外嵌して下型にてチャッキングしてセットし、次いで前記接続頭部の先端を上型(パンチ)にて管軸方向にプレス加工して、当該接続頭部を拡径して膨出させて前記スリーブの環状溝に高圧燃料噴射管接続頭部外周面を食い込ませて当該スリーブを高圧燃料噴射管接続頭部に固着する。しかる後、前記スリーブ端部より突出している高圧燃料噴射管接続頭部の先端部をプレス加工や切削加工等により相手部材のシート面(受圧座面)に対応するシート面(押圧座面)を形成し、高圧燃料噴射管の接続頭部のシート面(押圧座面)に相手部材のシート面(受圧座面)を当接係合させるとともに、予め高圧燃料噴射管に組込んだ締付けナットを前記筒形スリーブに螺着し締付けて締結する。かかる構成の接続構造も前記のものと同様、前記高圧燃料噴射管接続頭部に固着したスリーブの端部と前記相手部材受圧座面との間に隙間を有している。
なお、本固着手段においても前記と同様、スリーブ環状溝に噴射管接続頭部を膨出させて食い込ませて固定する工程と、噴射管接続頭部先端をシート面形成するために行うプレス工程を同時に行ってもよいことはいうまでもない。
Further, when a press bulging method is employed in which an annular groove is formed in the inner peripheral surface of the sleeve and the outer peripheral surface of the high pressure fuel injection pipe connection head is bitten into the annular groove, for example, the high pressure fuel injection pipe connection head With the tip of the connecting head being looked into, the sleeve is externally fitted and chucked with the lower die and set, and then the tip of the connecting head is placed in the tube axis direction with the upper die (punch) The connecting head is expanded to expand the diameter of the connecting head, and the outer peripheral surface of the high-pressure fuel injection pipe connection head is bitten into the annular groove of the sleeve, thereby fixing the sleeve to the high-pressure fuel injection pipe connection head. . After that, a sheet surface (pressing seat surface) corresponding to the sheet surface (pressure receiving seat surface) of the mating member is formed by pressing or cutting the tip of the high pressure fuel injection pipe connecting head protruding from the sleeve end. A clamping nut that is formed in advance and brought into contact with and engages the seat surface (pressure receiving seat surface) of the mating member with the seat surface (pressing seat surface) of the connection head of the high-pressure fuel injection pipe; The tubular sleeve is screwed and fastened to be fastened.

While rotating the horizontal mold, the annular protrusion is caused to bite into the inner peripheral surface of the sleeve, and the sleeve is fixed to the high pressure fuel injection pipe connecting head. After that, a sheet surface (pressing seat surface) corresponding to the sheet surface (pressure receiving seat surface) of the mating member is formed by pressing or cutting the tip of the high pressure fuel injection pipe connecting head protruding from the sleeve end.

さらにまた、スリーブの内周面に1または複数個の環状突起を形成し、この環状突起を高圧燃料噴射管接続頭部の外周面に食い込ませるカシメ工法を採用する場合は、内周面に1または複数個の環状突起を形成したスリーブを高圧燃料噴射管接続頭部に当該接続頭部の先端部をのぞかせた状態で外嵌し、この状態で該スリーブの断面形状に応じて形成した横型にて当該スリーブを径方向に押圧しながら該横型を回転させて前記環状突起を高圧燃料噴射管の接続頭部に食い込ませて当該スリーブを高圧燃料噴射管接続頭部に固着する。しかる後、前記スリーブ端部より突出している高圧燃料噴射管接続頭部の先端部をプレス加工や切削加工等により相手部材のシート面(受圧座面)に対応するシート面(押圧座面)を形成し、高圧燃料噴射管の接続頭部のシート面(押圧座面)に相手部材のシート面(受圧座面)を当接係合させるとともに、予め高圧燃料噴射管に組込んだ締付けナットを前記筒形スリーブを介して螺着し締付けて締結する。かかる構成の接続構造も前記のものと同様、前記高圧燃料噴射管接続頭部に固着したスリーブの端部と前記相手部材受圧座面との間に隙間を有している。   Furthermore, when a caulking method is employed in which one or a plurality of annular protrusions are formed on the inner peripheral surface of the sleeve and the annular protrusions bite into the outer peripheral surface of the high-pressure fuel injection pipe connection head, 1 is applied to the inner peripheral surface. Alternatively, a sleeve in which a plurality of annular protrusions are formed is externally fitted in a state where the tip of the connection head is looked into the connection head of the high-pressure fuel injection pipe, and in this state, a horizontal shape formed according to the cross-sectional shape of the sleeve is formed. Then, while pressing the sleeve in the radial direction, the horizontal mold is rotated so that the annular protrusion bites into the connection head of the high pressure fuel injection pipe, and the sleeve is fixed to the connection head of the high pressure fuel injection pipe. After that, a sheet surface (pressing seat surface) corresponding to the sheet surface (pressure receiving seat surface) of the mating member is formed by pressing or cutting the tip of the high pressure fuel injection pipe connecting head protruding from the sleeve end. A clamping nut that is formed in advance and brought into contact with and engages the seat surface (pressure receiving seat surface) of the mating member with the seat surface (pressing seat surface) of the connection head of the high-pressure fuel injection pipe; It is screwed and tightened through the cylindrical sleeve. Similarly to the above-described connection structure, the connection structure has a gap between the end of the sleeve fixed to the connection head of the high-pressure fuel injection pipe and the counterpart member pressure-receiving seat surface.

一方、前記高圧燃料噴射管接続頭部と相手部材とを締付けナットにより締結した状態において、前記高圧燃料噴射管接続頭部に固着したスリーブの端部が当該接続頭部外周面と相手部材の受圧座面にくさび状に食い込み圧入された構造の接続構造(高圧燃料噴射管接続頭部に固着したスリーブの端部と前記相手部材受圧座面との間に隙間を有しない接続構造)の場合は、高圧燃料噴射管接続頭部に当該接続頭部の先端部をのぞかせた状態で、例えば内周面に浅く滑らかな環状凹部を形成した筒形スリーブを外嵌して下型にてチャッキングしてセットし、次いで前記接続頭部の先端を前記筒形スリーブと共に上型(パンチ)にて管軸方向に押圧プレス加工して、当該接続頭部を拡径して膨出させて前記スリーブの環状凹部に高圧燃料噴射管接続頭部外周面を食い込ませて当該スリーブを高圧燃料噴射管接続頭部に固着すると同時に、当該接続頭部の先端部を相手部材のシート面(受圧座面)に対応するシート面(押圧座面)に形成すると共にスリーブの先端部をくさび状断面に加工する。しかる後、高圧燃料噴射管の接続頭部のシート面(押圧座面)に相手部材のシート面(受圧座面)を当接係合させるとともに、予め高圧燃料噴射管に組込んだ締付けナットを前記筒形スリーブを介して螺着し締付けて締結する。この時、くさび状断面のスリーブ先端部が当該接続頭部外周面と相手部材の受圧座面にくさび状に食い込み圧入されて、気密性がより高められると共にスリーブの固着がより強化される。
なお、この接続構造の場合、スリーブ先端部を断面くさび状に形成する手段としては、プレス加工以外に、スリーブを高圧燃料噴射管接続頭部に固着した後、この接続頭部とスリーブ先端部を切削加工することによっても形成することができる。
