Abstract
A unite injector a unit injector for injecting fuel into the combustion chamber of a self-igniting internal combustion engine, including a pump part a nozzle part and an final control element that is followed downstream by a hydraulic coupler which actuates a valve needle of a 2/2-way valve inside a nozzle body. The final control element includes a piezoelectric crystal array. The hydraulic coupler acts on the face end of the valve needle in such a way that it can be put into a first position that enables a pressure buildup, and a further position of the valve needle that enables the opening of a nozzle needle, with the pressure buildup and the valve opening being separately adjustable.
