A fuel injection valve for internal combustion engines, having a housing () in which a pistonlike valve member () is disposed longitudinally displaceably in a bore (). The valve member () is surrounded, over at least part of its length, by a pressure chamber (), embodied in the housing (), that can be filled with fuel at high pressure; the valve member () controls the communication of the pressure chamber () with at least one injection opening (). The pressure chamber () communicates with a damping chamber (), embodied in the housing (), via at least one throttle () disposed in the housing (), so that pressure fluctuations that occur in the damping chamber () rapidly fade (FIG.).

Fuel injection valve for internal combustion engines with damping chamber reducing pressure oscillations

A fuel injection system with a fuel injection valve and a control valve, which control valve has a control valve member that can move longitudinally in a control valve bore. The control valve member is provided with a control valve sealing surface, which cooperates with a control valve seat and thereby controls the connection between a first pressure chamber and a second pressure chamber, where the first pressure chamber is connected to a high-pressure accumulation chamber. A bore is embodied in a valve body and contains a piston-shaped valve needle whose end oriented toward the combustion chamber controls the opening of at least one injection opening by virtue of the fact that it executes a longitudinal movement due to the impingement of the pressure in a pressure chamber; the pressure chamber is connected to the second pressure chamber by means of a supply conduit. The first pressure chamber is connected by means of a throttle to a damping chamber that is otherwise closed, as a result of which, pressure oscillations that are produced by the closing of the control valve are rapidly damped.

Fuel injection system for internal combustion engines

The valve having a valve member guided displaceably in the direction of its longitudinal axis protrudes into a valve pressure chamber and has a sealing face extending transversely to axis, has a sealing face, which it cooperates with a valve seat, extending transversely to axis, for at least extensively closing off an opening, surrounded by the valve seat, from the valve pressure chamber. The sealing face is surrounded by an annular face, which when the valve member rests on the valve seat is disposed at a slight spacing from the valve seat. The valve member has a plurality of apertures, distributed over its circumference, through which the opening communicates with the valve pressure chamber when the valve member is resting on the valve seat.

Valve for controlling a communication in a high-pressure fluid system, in particular in a fuel injection system for an internal combustion engine

The fuel injection system has one high-pressure fuel pump and one fuel injection valve for each cylinder of the engine. A pump work chamber can be made to communicate with a pressure chamber of the injection valve which has a valve member movable in an opening direction by the pressure in the pressure chamber, counter to a closing force. A first control valve, controls a communication of the work chamber with a relief chamber, and a second control valve, controls the pressure prevailing in a control pressure chamber urging the injection valve closed. In a first switching position of the first control valve the work chamber is made to communicate with the relief chamber, while the pressure chamber and the control pressure chamber are disconnected from the work chamber, and for a second switching position, the work chamber is disconnected from the relief chamber by the first control valve, while the pressure chamber and the control pressure chamber communicate with the work chamber.

Fuel injection system for an internal combustion engine

A fuel injection system, having a fuel injection valve and a control valve, which control valve has a control valve member that is longitudinally displaceable in a control valve bore. A control valve sealing face is embodied on the control valve member; it cooperates with a control valve seat and thus controls the communication between a first pressure space and a second pressure space; the first pressure space communicates with a high-pressure collection chamber. In a valve body, a bore is embodied in which a pistonlike valve needle, with its end toward the combustion chamber, controls the opening of at least one injection opening by executing a longitudinal motion in response to the pressure in a pressure chamber; the pressure chamber communicates with the second pressure space via an inlet conduit. The first pressure space communicates via a throttle with a damping chamber, embodied as a blind bore and otherwise closed off, as a result of which pressure fluctuations that occur upon closure of the control valve are rapidly damped.

A fuel injection valve includes a housing in which a pistonlike valve member is disposed longitudinally displaceably in a bore to cause at least one injection opening to communicate with a pressure chamber embodied in the housing. An inlet conduit discharges into the pressure chamber to fill the pressure chamber with fuel at high pressure. A fuel-filled control chamber in the housing at least indirectly exerts a force acting in the closing direction on the valve member. The control chamber communicates with the inlet conduit and can be made to communicate via a control valve with a leak fuel chamber. A damping chamber communicates with the inlet conduit via a throttle.

Fuel injection valve for internal combustion engines

A fuel injection system for internal combustion engines with a pressure step-up means is proposed, in which the fuel is pumped out of the low-pressure supplier into the injection nozzle via a feed line and is measured correctly in terms of time and quantity via a control line by the high-pressure part of the injection pump.

Fuel injection system for internal combustion engines, and method for injecting fuel into the combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine

A fuel injection valve for high-pressure injection of fuel from a central high-pressure line into combustion chambers of an internal combustion engine, which includes a switching valve with a valve seat and a valve ball; the valve ball in the opened state is lifted from the valve seat by means of a high-pressure jet which is supplied from a throttle bore by a pressure chamber operatively connected to a central high-pressure line. The transition from the throttle bore to the valve seat is embodied as a diffuser.

Fuel injection pump for diesel internal combustion engines

A fuel injection pump for internal combustion engines is proposed, in which to attain particularly quiet operation of an engine that is operated with direct injection, the fuel delivery is subdivided into a preinjection and a main injection; this injection is attained by annular groove, coinciding with one another, on the pump piston and pump cylinder, and a connecting groove connecting the coinciding annular grooves with a relief opening. After a partial stroke in the region of coincidence of the annular grooves with one another, the communication with the relief opening is interrupted again. The preinjection quantity can be kept particularly small here, with a short interval between the preinjection and the main injection; in combination with a two-spring-holder injection valve, this particularly small preinjection quantity can be kept constant to a great extent even at varying engine speeds, to attain an optimal reduction in combustion noise at various engine speeds.

Fuel injection pump for internal combustion engines

In an apparatus for generating pre-injection quantities in unit fuel injectors for Diesel engines, including a pre-injection slide that generates a pronounced pressure intensification for a pre-injection in a pressure chamber closed off with respect to the high-pressure side and opens towards the injection line is slidably supported in a guide bore. The pre-injection slide is exposed to the injection pressure of an element chamber in such a way that after the execution of a partial stroke, which is responsible for the pre-injection quantity, upon further movement the pre-injection pressure chamber is opened toward the element chamber and thereby relieved, and by the ensuing movement of the pre-injection slide until the end of the stroke, a pre-determinable capacity that enables an injection pause is formed. A valve which is supported inside the pre-injection slide is under the control of a magnetic valve associated with the unit fuel injector and provides for the filling of the pre-injection pressure chamber forms selectively actuatable shutoff control for the pre-injection.

Apparatus for generating pre-injections in unit fuel injectors

A fuel injection apparatus which the termination of the effective pump supply stroke is effected by exposing a relief conduit with the aid of a valve having for instance a control edge, whereupon a highly pressurized fuel flows out via the relief conduit and is directed into a pressure chamber defined by a rear face of a pressure valve closing member. The pressure valve closing member is located in a connection with a fuel injection line that leads from the pump work chamber to the fuel injection valve and is acted upon by a valve spring to effect closing of this injection line. The impact of fuel that reaches the pressure chamber via the releif conduit reinforces a fast closure of the pressure valve closing member at the end of injection, which leads to an abrupt termination of an injection cycle. In addition, or altenatively, the fuel injection valve closing member can also be acted upon by the impact of fuel diversion.

Fuel injection apparatus for internal combustion engines

In a pre-injection apparatus for Diesel engines, a pre-injection slide that generates a pronounced pressure intensification for the pre-injection in a pressure chamber closed off with respect to the high-pressure side and open toward the injection line is slidably supported in a stepped guide bore and is exposed to the injection pressure of a high-pressure pump. After the execution of a partial stroke (h.sub.v), which is responsible for the pre-injection quantity, the pre-injection pressure chamber is opened with a backwards-oriented action toward the high-pressure side and thereby is intially relieved of pressure. The ensuing movement of the pre-injection slide until the complete end of its stroke forms a predeterminable capacity that enables an injection pause. The pre-injection pressure chamber communicates with an electrically triggerable magnetic valve with the low-pressure side or the high-pressure side, so that the shutoff of the pre-injection is possible under certain operating conditions.
