Abstract:
Grooves 6 having a length larger than the diameter of shaft 2 are formed in both surfaces of throttle valve 3 between mounting screws 4 and the inner circumferential wall of throttle body 1, perpendicular to the shaft axis, to capture any excess adhesive applied to the screws and migrating outwardly therefrom.
Abstract:
An apparatus for detecting the opening of the throttle valve of an internal combustion engine. The apparatus comprises a throttle body constituting a portion of a suction passage, a valve shaft held to the throttle body, a throttle valve for controlling the flow of air inside the suction passage, and a sensor fixed to the throttle body. The sensor has a driving shaft one end of which is disposed outside the case of the sensor. A U-shaped engaging member having two legs is fixed to this one end of the driving shaft. A disklike engaging member having two grooves is fixed to one end of the valve shaft. The two legs are fitted in the two grooves.
Abstract:
A method of generating a spray by a fluid injection valve is provided. The fluid injection valve includes a valve seat (10), a valve body (8), and an orifice plate (11) having a plurality of orifices (12). The flows in the orifices and the flows directly below the orifices are configured to be substantially liquid film flows. The directions of jet flows (30), (31) from the respective orifices (12) are not necessarily matched to the central axis directions of the orifices and are not necessarily intersected with each other at a downstream position thereof. The sprays are caused to converge by the Coanda effect acting on a plurality of sprays after jet flows from the orifices (12) become sprays at a downstream position farther than a break-up length (a). The convergence of the sprays is continued until the Coanda effect is substantially lost.
Abstract:
A fuel injection valve includes a valve seat portion, a nozzle hole plate, and a valve member. The valve seat portion has an inner circumferential surface including a valve seat. The nozzle hole plate is disposed at a downstream side of a fuel passage of the valve seat. The nozzle hole plate has a nozzle hole for injecting fuel flowing out from the fuel passage. The valve member seats on the valve seat to close the fuel passage and unseats from the valve seat to open the fuel passage. Diameter of the inner circumferential surface decreases as approaching to a downstream side. The nozzle hole of the nozzle hole plate is formed so that length of radial outside of the nozzle hole with respect to a shaft center of the fuel injection valve is smaller than that of radial inside of the nozzle hole.
Abstract:
A method of manufacturing a sliding part includes: an injection molding step of injection-molding a compacted member of a molding compound which is a mixture of powder material equivalent to SUS440C, graphite carbon corresponding to an oxygen content of the material, and a binder; a degreasing step of heating the compacted member thus obtained by the injection molding step under a neutral atmospheric condition to remove substantially all of the binder from the compacted member; and a baking step of heating the compacted member which is degreased under a vacuum condition of 0.1333 Pa or less from a room temperature up to 1000° C. to reduce an oxygen content of the compacted member to 0.02% or less by the reaction of C+O→CO, and then heating the compacted member under an argon atmospheric condition of 133.3 to 3999 Pa for two hours after the temperature is increased up to 1250° C.
Abstract:
An in-cylinder fuel injection valve which can realize perfectly hollow conical spray with the minimum amount of center spray. When the outer diameter of a portion of a valve supported by a turning body in such a manner that it can move in an axial direction is represented by D1, the inner diameter of a center hole is represented by D2 and the outer diameter of an inner annular groove is represented by D3, 2×(D2−D1)
Abstract:
A fuel injection valve includes: a valve seat provided at one end of a hollow valve main body and having an injection hole; a valve body separated/contacted from/with the valve seat to open/close the injection hole; and a swirler for surrounding the valve body to slidably support the valve body and for giving swirling to a fuel flowing into the injection hole, the swirler being produced by metal powder injection molding.
Abstract:
An improved fuel injection valve for improving the flow of fuel includes a vortex forming member and a needle valve having a planar surface on its leading end. A valve seat has a fuel injection nozzle formed therein and the needle valve opens and closes the fuel injection nozzle by engaging and disengaging with the valve seat. The vortex forming member provides a vortex motion to the fuel entering the fuel injection nozzle, upstream of a seat portion. The flat portion reduces the amount of surface area in which particles may adhere, thus preventing particles from adhering to the needle valve and reducing interference with the flow of fuel.
Abstract:
A seal ring to be disposed between two surfaces to sealingly isolate a clearance therebetween into radially inner and outer portions, the seal ring (45) comprisinig a first ridge portion (51) extending through the entire circumference on the first side (46) for sealingly contacting the first surface at a first radial position, and a second ridge portion (52) extending through the entire circumference on the second side for sealingly contacting the second surface at a second radial position different from the first radial position. The seal ring may a generally wave-shaped or S-shaped cross section or include a soft material layer on its surface. The seal ring (65) may also comprise a projection (62) extending from the inner circumference surface of the seal ring in substantially radially inner direction for elastically engaging with a member disposed in the innter circumferential portion of the seal ring.
Abstract:
A cylinder injection type fuel injection valve has a metallic ring 15 of a substantially T-like shape which is disposed inside a solenoid 2 and which has inner and outer sides supported by O-rings 16, 17 in order to seal highly pressurized fuel, whereby a change in a flow rate of fuel, which may be resulted by attaching the fuel injection valve to an internal combustion engine, can be minimized without changing largely a sealing structure for fuel, and deformation of the metallic ring is minimized.
