A fuel injector configured as a high-pressure injection valve for the direct injection of fuel into a combustion chamber includes: a housing having an housing end face on the combustion chamber side; an actuator; a valve-closure member operable by the actuator; at least one outlet orifice in the housing end face on the combustion chamber side for the fuel, the valve-closure member selectively closing or opening the outlet orifice; and a ring provided round about the outlet orifice in the housing end face on the combustion chamber side.

Fuel injector

A fuel injector for the direct injection of fuel into the combustion chamber of a mixture-compressing internal combustion engine having external ignition includes a valve housing formed by a nozzle body, and a seal which seals the fuel injector from a cylinder head of the internal combustion engine. The seal has a sleeve-type design with a structured cross section and extends across the axial length of the nozzle body.

Fuel injector nozzle seal

In a method for operating an internal combustion engine of a motor vehicle, in particular, pressurized fuel is conveyed to a fuel accumulator. The fuel is injected into a combustion chamber via a fuel injector. Coking of the fuel injector is determined. A first fuel-pressure increase is implemented when the coking exceeds a threshold value.

Method for operating an internal combustion engine of a motor vehicle in particular

A fuel injector for fuel-injection systems of internal combustion engines includes an actuator, a valve needle, which is able to be activated by the actuator to actuate a valve-closure member, which, together with a valve-seat surface formed at a valve-seat member, forms a sealing seat; and at least one spray-discharge orifice which is formed in the valve-seat member. At a downstream end of the fuel injector, a flameproofing screen is positioned, which shields the spray-discharge orifices from the combustion chamber of the internal combustion engine.

Fuel-injection valve

A fuel injector for fuel injection systems of internal combustion engines includes a valve needle and a valve closing body, which is operationally linked to it and cooperates with a valve seat face situated in a valve seat body to form a sealing seat. Upstream from the sealing seat there is at least one swirl channel, which has a tangential component relative to the longitudinal axis of the fuel injector. An axial channel, which is formed between the valve closing body and the guide recess of the valve seat body, has an axial component relative to the longitudinal axis of the fuel injector, the axial channel being formed between the guide recess and at least one flattened area on the valve needle.

A fuel injector () is provided with a magnetic coil (), which cooperates with an armature () acted upon by a restoring spring (), the armature forming an axially movable valve part together with a valve needle (). A valve-closure member (), which forms a sealing seat with a valve-seat member (), is provided at the valve needle (). A flange (), which penetrates the armature () through an opening () of the armature () and which is connected to the valve needle () by force-locking, has at least one radial fuel channel () with whose aid an inner chamber () of the fuel injector () is able to be connected to a recess () of the valve needle () upon actuation of the fuel injector ().

Fuel injection valve

A fuel injector with a magnetic coil, which cooperates with an armature acted upon by a restoring spring, the armature forming an axially movable valve part together with a valve needle. A valve-closure member, which forms a sealing seat with a valve-seat member, is provided at the valve needle. An inner pole and an outer pole form a magnetic circuit with the magnetic coil. A membrane is positioned at an inflow-side end face of the inner pole, which includes at least one orifice, which is covered by the inner pole in the dosed state of the fuel injector.

A fuel injector, in particular for a high-pressure injector for direct injection of fuel into a combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine, has compression of a fuel/air mixture with spark ignition. On the downstream end of the valve a valve seat element is provided, to which a perforated disk acting as a flow restrictor is connected downstream. A swirl element is situated upstream from the valve seat which imparts an atomization-promoting rotational motion to the fuel to be injected. In the valve seat element downstream from the valve seat, an elongated outlet orifice is provided which opens directly into an orifice in the perforated disk attached to the valve seat element. The width of the outlet orifice is greater than the width of the orifice in the perforated disk, at least at its narrowest location, so that it is possible to adjust the steady-state flow rate of the valve at the orifice.

Fuel injector, in particular, a fuel injector for the direct injection of fuel into a combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine is described having an actuator for actuating a valve needle, the valve needle having on an injection-side end a valve-closure member which forms a sealing seat together with a valve-seat surface, which is formed on a valve-seat member. Fuel channels are arranged in a valve needle guide, connected to the valve-seat member or designed as a single piece with it, in several rows circumferentially in the valve needle guide, at least one row of fuel channels being arranged, in the resting state of the fuel injector, above a guide line of the valve-closure member.

A fuel injector for fuel-injection systems of internal combustion engines includes an actuator, a valve needle, which is able to be activated by the actuator to actuate a valve-closure member, which, together with a valve-seat surface formed at a valve-seat member, forms a sealing seat; and a plurality of spray-discharge orifices which is formed in the valve-seat member. At a discharge-side end of the fuel injector, a nozzle-orifice cover is positioned, which shields the spray-discharge orifices from the combustion chamber of the internal combustion engine.

The invention relates among others to a method for producing outlet openings ( ) in a valve, in particular a fuel injection valve. The injection valve has a fuel inlet ( ), an excitable actuating device ( ) by which a valve closing member ( ) is movable, a fixed valve seat ( ) embodied on a valve seat element ( ), with which seat the valve closing member ( ) cooperates to open and close the valve, and at least one outlet opening ( ), as a fuel outlet, provided downstream of the valve seat ( ). The at least one outlet opening is produced in such a way that in a first method step, a through hole is created in the valve seat element ( ), and in a second method step, from the ejection end of the through hole, an outlet region is created that is altered in shape and/or size and/or contour compared to the through hole.

Fuel injection valve and a method for manufacturing exit outlets on the valve

A fuel injector, in particular for direct injection of fuel into the combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine, includes a valve-closure member which forms a sealing seat together with a valve-seat surface which is formed on a valve-seat member, and several injection orifices, each of which is connected with at least one spiral groove so that an outer edge of the swirl grooves coincides in part with a circumferential edge of the injection orifices. The swirl grooves extend generally perpendicular to a center line of the injection orifice associated with them.

A fuel injector for fuel injection systems of internal combustion engines and a method of manufacturing same are described. The fuel injector includes a valve seat body into which a valve seat face is introduced, which cooperates with a valve closing body to form a sealing seat, and a nozzle body to which the valve seat body is fixedly connected. The valve seat body is insertable into the interior of the nozzle body and on its downstream side it has a partially spherical outside geometry, which rests on a bearing surface of a seat body recess in the nozzle body. Valve seat body is mounted so it can rotate relative to the nozzle body on the bearing surface until its position is finally secured, and it may be aligned by a centering mandrel.

Fuel injector and corresponding production method

A fuel injector, for example, for direct injection of fuel into a combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine, having a valve-closure member, which forms a sealing seat together with a valve-seat surface constructed on a valve-seat member, and having a swirl disk with fuel passages, the swirl disk being constructed from a plurality of swirl elements, each of the swirl elements having the same number of fuel passages. The swirl elements are offset with respect to one another, so that the fuel passages at least partially overlap.

A fuel injector, in particular for the direct injection of fuel into the combustion chamber of a mixture-compressing, externally fired internal combustion engine, comprising, upstream from a valve-seat surface, a swirl disk provided with swirl channels from which, given an open fuel injector, the fuel flows with a circumferential speed into a swirl chamber which is also located upstream from the valve-seat surface. Each point downstream from the swirl disk ( ) through which a flow is to pass has a larger extension in every spatial direction than the diameter of the swirl channels.
