The fuel injection system has one high-pressure fuel pump and one fuel injection valve for each cylinder of the engine. The fuel injection valve has a first hollow injection valve member and a second valve member guided displaceably, inside the first valve member for controlling first and second opening(s), respectively into the associated engine cylinder. The second valve member is movable by the pressure prevailing in a pressure chamber in an opening direction counter to a closing force and is acted upon at least indirectly by the pressure prevailing in a fuel-filled control chamber, which pressure is controllable as a function of operating parameters of the engine such that the second injection valve member, by means of the pressure prevailing in the control chamber, can be blocked, independently of an opening motion of the first injection valve member in a position that closes the at least one second injection opening.

Fuel injection device for an internal combustion engine

The fuel injection system has one high-pressure fuel pump () with a pump work chamber () and one fuel injection valve (), communicating with the pump work chamber, for each cylinder of the engine. The fuel injection valve () has a first injection valve member (), by which at least a first injection opening () is controlled, and which is movable in an opening direction () counter to a closing force by the pressure generated in the pump work chamber (). Inside the hollow first injection valve member (), a second injection valve member () is guided displaceably, by which at least a second injection opening () is controlled, and which is movable by the pressure prevailing in the pressure chamber () in an opening direction () counter to a closing force; the second injection valve member () is acted upon at least indirectly by the pressure prevailing in a fuel-filled control chamber (), which pressure is generated, as a function of operating parameters of the engine, by a feed pump () such that the second injection valve member () either remains in its closed position, or can open.

A fuel injection valve for internal combustion engines, having a valve body with longitudinal bore terminating in a valve seat. In the region of the valve seat, at least one injection opening connects the bore with the combustion chamber of the engine. A valve member disposed in the bore cooperates with the valve seat for controlling the at least one injection opening. Between the wall of the bore and the valve member, a pressure chamber is embodied that can be filled with fuel at high pressure. The valve body is surrounded, in the region of the pressure chamber, by a sleeve that has anisotropic strength properties, so that the valve body exhibits less deformation from the pressure in the pressure chamber.
