Definitions
- the invention relates to a fuel injection valve according to the preamble of the main claim.
- a hydraulic displacement transformer for a piezoelectric actuator in which a master piston and a slave piston are arranged in a common axis of symmetry and the hydraulic chamber is arranged between the two pistons.
- a spring is arranged, which presses apart the master cylinder and the slave piston, wherein the master piston in the direction of the actuator and the slave piston are biased in a working direction to a valve needle.
- this stroke movement is transmitted to the slave piston by the pressure of a hydraulic fluid in the hydraulic chamber, since the hydraulic fluid in the hydraulic chamber can not be compressed and only a small portion of the hydraulic fluid through annular gaps between the master piston and a guide bore and slave piston and a guide bore during the short period of a stroke can escape.
- the path transformer automatically adjusts to length expansions and pressure-related expansions of a fuel injection valve.
- a further disadvantage is that it can lead to cavitation of the fuel when the spring exerts a high clamping force on the master cylinder and the slave cylinder and the movement of the actuator takes place very quickly in its starting position.
- the negative pressure forming in the hydraulic chamber can then lead to cavitation and the resulting damage to components.
- the fuel injection valve according to the invention with the characterizing features of claim 1 has the advantage that the hydraulic coupler is sealed by a membrane, a corrugated tube seal, and an elastomeric membrane so that a coupler volume and a compensating volume are formed, which is filled with a high-viscosity hydraulic medium are.
- the membrane sealing the actuator housing leads to the fact that the actuator housing is not subjected to high fuel pressures and thus remains free of forces.
- the membrane is U-shaped and communicates with a flange and the master piston in connection.
- the compensating volume may have two separate regions, which are separated by a further membrane.
- a compensation hole for receiving coupler medium for example, between the diaphragm space and filled with hydraulic medium area of the compensation volume or between the fuel-filled area of the compensation volume and the fuel channel.
- FIG. 1 a fuel injection valve 1 according to the prior art in its essential components for a better understanding of the invention briefly explained.
- the fuel injection valve 1 is suitable as a fuel injection valve 1 for fuel injection systems for mixture-compressing, spark-ignited internal combustion engines for direct injection of fuel into the combustion chamber of the internal combustion engine.
- the fuel injection valve 1 in this case comprises a particular piezoelectric or magnetostrictive actuator 2, which is encapsulated in an actuator housing 3.
- the actuator 2 is excited via an electrical connection 4, which is contacted by an electrical line 5.
- the actuator 2 is supported on the downstream side of an actuating element 6, which is biased by a spring 7, which is supported on a housing shoulder 8, against the actuator 2.
- the actuator housing 3 is provided with a suitable, in Fig. 1 seal not shown sealed against the fuel injector 1 flowing through the fuel. By sealing the actuator housing 3, the actuator 2 is protected against both mechanical and chemical influences.
- the hydraulic coupler 10 Downstream of the actuating element 6, a hydraulic coupler 10 is arranged.
- the hydraulic coupler 10 includes a master piston 11 and a slave piston 12 which are spaced from each other by a coupler gap 13.
- the master piston 11 and the slave piston 12 are arranged in a guide sleeve 14.
- the master piston 11 and the slave piston 12 may have the same or different cross-sectional areas to implement the stroke of the actuator 2 or translate in a ratio of up to 1: 3.
- a further actuating body 15 is arranged, which cooperates with a valve needle 16.
- the fuel injection valve 1 is formed in the present case as an outwardly opening fuel injection valve 1, wherein a valve closing body 17 cooperates with a valve seat surface 18, which is formed on a nozzle body 19, to a sealing seat.
- the valve closing body 17 is formed at the downstream end of the valve needle 16.
- a return spring 20, which is arranged in the nozzle body 19, ensures, when the actuator 2 is not actuated, that the fuel injection valve 1 is kept closed. After the actuation phase of the actuator 2, the return spring 20 continues to ensure that the valve closing body 17 is again used on the valve seat surface 18 and the fuel injection valve 1 is thereby closed.
- the fuel is supplied via a central fuel supply 21 at an inlet end 22 of the fuel injection valve 1 and guided via fuel channels 23 to the hydraulic coupler 10 and to the sealing seat.
- the fuel also serves as a coupling medium.
- the actuator 2 is not subjected to high system pressure, whereby the sealing of the actuator 2 against the coupler medium, the provision of the master piston 11 when closing the fuel injector 1 and the provision of a compensation volume for displaced coupler medium by sufficient elasticity of the sealing corrugated pipe 9 is possible.
- the hydraulic coupler 10 is formed as a whole unit and sealed by various sealing measures against the fuel.
- the hydraulic coupler 10 is disposed through a thin-walled elastomeric membrane 30 defining a balance volume 31 between the elastomeric membrane 30 and a flange 32.
- the compensating volume 31 communicates via a leakage gap 33 with a coupler volume 34 in the coupler gap 13 in connection.
- the coupler medium is arranged through a steel diaphragm 35 which is arranged between the master piston 11 and the flange 32 and with the respective component preferably welded, sealed.
- a corrugated tube 36 seals the coupler medium against the fuel pressure of up to 20 MPa and simultaneously serves as a return spring for the slave piston 12 during the closing phase of the fuel injection valve 1.
- the corrugated tube 36 is welded to the slave piston 12 and a support member 37, which at the same time Guide for the slave piston 12 is used.
- the elastomeric membrane 30 is sealed by a clamping sleeve 44 against the fuel.
- the fuel is passed over fuel channels 23 on the hydraulic coupler 10 in the direction of sealing seat.
- the actuator 2 Upon actuation of the actuator 2, this expands in the outflow direction and acts via the actuating element 6 on the master piston 11 of the hydraulic coupler 10 a.
- the hydraulic medium transmits the rapid movement of the actuator 2 via the coupler gap 13 to the slave piston 12 and from there to the valve needle 16, whereby the valve closing body 17 lifts off from the valve seat surface 18 and fuel is injected into the combustion chamber of the internal combustion engine. Due to the speed of movement of the actuator 2, the hydraulic medium behaves similar to a solid. During slow movements of the actuator 2, for example due to thermal influences, the hydraulic medium is displaced by the leakage gap 33 in the compensating volume 31, whereby an arbitrary opening of the fuel injection valve 1 is prevented.
- Fig. 2B shows further possibilities for the design of the fuel injection valve 1 according to the invention.
- the compensating volume 31 is provided with a corrugated elastomeric diaphragm 39, which divides the compensating volume 31 into a first region 40, in which the coupler medium is located, and a second region 41, in which fuel pressure is applied.
- a compensation bore 43 is formed between the first region 40 of the compensation volume 31 filled with coupler medium and a membrane space 42, which is formed between the flange 32, the diaphragm 35 and the master piston 11 of the hydraulic coupler 10 the now no longer existing leakage gap 33 takes over.
- Advantage of this embodiment is the ability to produce the flange 32 in one piece with the support member 37, for example by turning cost.
- the invention is not limited to the illustrated embodiments and also for any other construction of fuel injection valves 1, in particular interior-opening fuel injection valves suitable.
