Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To improve output performance in a high-speed zone while improving exhaust performance in a wide range of operation by forming a nozzle hole of a small diameter for injecting fuel to a combustion chamber at a wide angle, and a nozzle hole of large diameter for injecting it to the combustion chamber at a narrow angle according to the lift of a needle valve. SOLUTION: Nozzle holes 12a to 12c of small diameter for injecting fuel at a wide angle α, and nozzle holes 13a to 13c of a large diameter for injecting the fuel at a narrow angle β are formed alternately in a circumferential direction respectively. A chambering part 18 is formed so as to increase the flow coefficient of the nozzle holes 13a to 13c. The nozzle holes 12a to 12c, and 13a to 13c inject fuel supplied through a clearance to a seat part 14 when a needle valve 11 is lifted. At the time of the low lift of the needle valve 11, a clearance area to the seat part 14 is small, and wide-angle injection rate becomes roughly equal to narrow-angle injection rate, and at the time of the full lift, the injection rate of the large-diameter nozzle holes 13a to 13b becomes larger than that of the small-diameter nozzle holes 12a to 12c. As a result, exhaust performance is improved, thus it is possible to improve the output performance in a high-speed zone.

A wide-angle nozzle 1 having a large injection hole angle as shown in FIG.
0a, when the spray collides with the throttle portion 21 of the combustion chamber 25, under high EGR conditions, if the fuel injection timing is delayed after the top dead center of the piston, the particulates that have been increasing until then tend to decrease. It turns to.
This seems to be due to the effect that the ignition delay period is prolonged due to the delay of the injection timing, during which the spray 30 spreads over the entire combustion chamber due to the reverse squish flow caused by the lowering of the piston 20, and premix combustion occurs. On the other hand, in the high-speed high-load region where the ignition delay period is short, the injection period is relatively long, and the amount of spray injected outside the combustion chamber 25 having a weak flow after ignition increases, so that smoke is easily generated, Full load performance is reduced.

[0005] A narrow-angle nozzle 1 having a small injection hole angle as described above
When the spray collides with the lower side of the throttle section 21 of the combustion chamber 25 as in the conventional example of FIG. 12, strong turbulent flow is generated by the throttle section 21 of the combustion chamber 25 in the recess 22 in the high-speed and high-load range. Since the mixture is generated and promotes mixing of the spray 30 and the air, the amount of generated smoke is suppressed, and the full load performance is improved. On the other hand, under high EGR conditions, the spray 30
Is held in the concave portion 22 of the combustion chamber 25, and the spread to the outside of the combustion chamber 25 can be suppressed. Therefore, even if the premixing is not sufficiently performed and the injection timing is delayed after the piston top dead center, the No downward trend is seen.

When the needle valve 11 is at a low lift, the clearance area between the needle valve 11 and the seat portion 14 is small, and each of the injection holes 12a to 12c
And the flow rates to 13a to 13b are controlled, so that the ratio of the wide-angle injection amount and the ratio of the narrow-angle injection amount are substantially equal,
When the needle valve 11 is fully lifted, the injection amount ratio of the large diameter injection holes 13a to 13b becomes larger than the injection amount ratio of the small diameter injection holes 12a to 12c.

Under high EGR conditions, high EGR
Lowering the combustion temperature, and at the same time delaying the injection timing beyond TDC, NOx
Can be reduced. In this operating range, the needle valve 11 stops at the first-stage lift (low lift), so that during the ignition delay, the spray 31 of the wide-angle injection 1 spreads from the combustion chamber 25 to the entire outside due to the reverse squish due to the lowering of the piston 20. Since the rate of premix combustion increases, the effect of reducing particulates due to the delay of the injection timing can be obtained as shown in FIG.

In the high speed range, the needle valve 11 is in a full lift state, and the effect of the arc-shaped chamfered portion 18 is also helped.
The combustion chamber 25 whose flow is weaker than the injection amount ratio of the wide-angle injection 1
The ratio of the injection amount of the narrow-angle injection 2 (the spray is represented by 32) is increased. Since the combustion chamber 25 has the throttle 21,
Since strong turbulence is generated in the inside, mixing of fuel and air is further promoted, and output performance at full load can be secured as shown in FIG.

FIG. 6 shows another embodiment, in which the small diameter injection holes 12a to 12c are formed closer to the seat portion 14 of the needle valve 11 than the large diameter injection holes 13a to 13c. That is, the positions of the small diameter injection holes 12a to 12c are changed to the large diameter injection holes 13a to 13c.
It is arranged on the upstream side of the fuel supply with respect to the position 13c.
Accordingly, when the needle valve 11 is at a low lift, the flow rate to the small-diameter injection holes 12a to 12c is larger than the large-diameter injection holes 13a to 13c, so that the effect of the premixed combustion by the wide-angle injection 1 can be enhanced. That is, under the high EGR condition, the effect of reducing particulates due to the delay of the injection timing can be promoted.

In the embodiment of FIG. 7, when the needle valve 11 is at a low lift, an annular concave portion 16 facing the small diameter injection holes 1a to 12c is formed on the outer periphery of the needle valve 11. In FIG. 9, when the needle valve 11 is at a low lift, the flow rate ratio (the injection amount ratio of the wide-angle injection 1) to the upstream small-diameter injection holes 12a to 12c further increases, so that the particulates are reduced due to the delay of the injection timing. The effect comes close to the performance of the wide-angle nozzle alone as shown in FIG.

When the needle valve 11 is fully lifted, the annular recess 16 retreats upward as shown in FIG. 8, the gap between the needle valve 11 and the seat portion 14 increases, and the small-diameter injection holes 12a to 12c move relative to the annular recess 16. Therefore, the injection amount from the large-diameter injection holes 13a to 13c having the arc-shaped chamfered portion 18 (the narrow-angle injection 2
), And a good output performance in a high-speed range is obtained (see FIGS. 9 and 10).

When the combustion chamber 25 on the top surface of the piston 20 has an opening having the same width as the maximum width, no strong turbulent flow is generated in the combustion chamber 25 because the throttle section is not provided. By doing so, it becomes possible to obtain the same exhaust performance and output performance as described above. In this case, in FIG. 11, the collision position of the spray 31 by the wide-angle injection 1 is defined by a position vertically lower by a predetermined distance x (for example, 7 mm) inward from the upper end of the combustion chamber 25 at the piston top dead center position. The collision position of the spray 32 due to the narrow-angle injection 2 is set to be a lower wall surface at a position lower than the upper end of the combustion chamber 25 by a predetermined distance x.
