Abstract:
A fuel injection valve, particularly an injection valve for fuel injection equipment of internal combustion engines, having a pump piston that can be activated using a piezoelectric or magnetostrictive actuator for exerting a translatory pump motion. A spray-discharge nozzle with at least one spray-discharge opening is hydraulically connected via a fuel pressure line to the pump piston. The spray-discharge nozzle opens when the fuel pressure produced by the pump piston in the fuel pressure line exceeds a predetermined threshold. In the fuel pressure line, at least one non-return valve is arranged so that it opens in the direction towards the spray-discharge nozzle and closes in the opposite direction.
Abstract:
An injector, in particular for injecting fuel directly into a combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine, having a fuel flow path from a fuel intake to a spray orifice, a plurality of fuel channels being arranged in the flow path in front of the spray orifice, their cross section, given a certain fuel pressure, determining each quantity of fuel spray-discharged per unit of time. To influence the fuel distribution in a spray-discharged fuel cloud and, in particular, to attain a selected strand-like quality of the fuel cloud, provision is made that at least one part of the fuel channels is aligned such that the fuel jets issuing from them are spray-discharged directly through the spray orifice when the valve is open.
Abstract:
A fuel supply systems with two series-connected pumps and with fuel injection valves that inject fuel directly into a combustion chamber of an engine in which a starting process takes less time because of the small feed quantity of the second fuel pump. The system includes a valve device which assures that during the starting process the first fuel pump furnishes the fuel to the fuel valves at elevated feed pressure. In many cases, this elevated feed pressure suffices to start the engine in the quickest possible time. The apparatus and the method are intended for an internal combustion engine of a vehicle.
Abstract:
An injection device for a combined injection of a fuel and a supplementary liquid, into the combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine. In this device, the fuel is injected by means of an injection valve controlled by an electromagnetic valve, and the injection valve additionally has a connection to a supplementary liquid pressure source that is provided with an intermittent-supply piston driven by a controlled pressure medium. For the pressure medium, pressure is drawn from a pressure reservoir; the pressure is supplied by a high-pressure feed pump provided for creating high pressure for fuel to be injected.
Abstract:
A hydraulic valve control apparatus in an embodiment for multi-cylinder internal combustion engine having a reservoir chamber, assigned to a pressure chamber of a valve tappet and having a reservoir piston that serves as a valve, with which the reservoir chamber can be separated from the pressure chamber. The reservoir piston is shifted out of its position of repose to a reservoir function by a hydraulic thrust that is conducted in the reservoir chamber under the control of a magnet valve, via a control line in which a check valve is disposed. Displacement of the reservoir piston occurs only whenever a valve actuation takes place via the drive cam and as a result the working pressure adequate for the displacement of the reservoir piston prevails in the pressure chamber.
Abstract:
A hydraulic drive control device for internal combustion engines, having a reservoir magnet valve for controlling a volume of oil in a stroke transmission chamber, in order to control a timing cross section of the engine valve, wherein the magnet valve is closed when without current, and the valve member, embodied as a reservoir piston, is loaded by a reservoir spring acting as a closing spring.
Abstract:
An electrically controlled fuel injection pump for internal combustion engines, in particular for direct fuel injection in engines having externally supplied ignition. A plurality of pump pistons driven by drive cams at a constant stroke and each leading into one cylinder bore, pump the fuel that has been brought to injection pressure in an associated pump work chamber to injection valves. A plurality of pump pistons are positioned side by side, radially of the camshaft. The work chambers of the pump pistons are connectable via a rotary slide valve to lines which lead to the injection valves and optionally to supply lines for supplying fuel to the work chambers of the pump pistons and the rotary slide can be driven in synchronism with the camshaft.
Abstract:
In a fuel injection apparatus having an injection nozzle opening at predetermined pressure, to which fuel is deliverable under pressure, the injection nozzle chamber communicates with a fuel supply line with the interposition of a check valve closing outward; the pressure in the fuel supply line is lower than the opening pressure of the injection nozzle. Furthermore, the injection nozzle chamber communicates with a work chamber of a spring-loaded work piston, the displacement motion of which for increasing the pressure in the nozzle chamber above the opening pressure of the injection nozzle is effected by relieving a second work chamber of the spring-loaded work piston under the influence of spring force.
Abstract:
The engine is controlled by sensing fuel pedal position, indicative of desire engine power. A characteristic transmission data field is used to select the appropriate gear or gear ratio. The engine is controlled on the basis of characteristic engine data or on the basis of an engine operating curve associated with minimum fuel consumption in dependence of the changes in engine speed due to the changing transmission ratio. In normal driving, the apparatus selects operation along the minimum fuel curve whereas during periods of increased power demand, the apparatus operates in dependence of characteristic engine data. Also proposed is apparatus which takes account of the operational vehicle status and effects the switchover from optimum fuel consumption to optimum power delivery with priority assigned to optimum fuel economy.
Abstract:
An improved wheel lock prevention device for use in the brake system of motor vehicles. The device has a relay valve included in assembly with a motor vehicle operator controlled brake velve, a wheel brake cylinder and a source of pressurized air. The relay valve has a primary and secondary pressure side. The primary pressure side is connected to the brake valve and the secondary side is connected to the wheel brake cylinder. A short circuit connection between the primary and secondary pressure sides is provided with a control for effecting a balancing of the pressures on both the primary and secondary pressure sides after the pressure on both sides has been reduced from a peak value by a desired extent during application of the brake system.
