Abstract:
The invention relates to a fuel injection system for self-ignition internal combustion engines. The noise reduction of Diesel engines requires new injection systems. According to the invention a pre-injection and a main injection is achieved by employing to injection lines of different lengths. The difference in length is selected such that the time difference of the pressure waves for travelling the respective lengths corresponds to the desired time delay between the pre-injection and the main injection. In order to account for the compressibility of the fuel both injection lines are maintained at a standing pressure. The hydraulic effect of the injection lines on each other is prevented by check valves and by-pass valves. The controlled injection significantly reduces the combustion noise.
Abstract:
A fuel injection nozzle comprises a valve member which is biased into contact with a seating by a spring supported on a spring abutment having an integral extension which projects through an aperture in the end face of a holder which carries a nozzle body in which the valve member is located. The valve member is in engagement with the extension. A sleeve surrounds the valve member and is slidable in the body and is engageable with the extension. The valve member and the sleeve move together against the action of the spring under the action of fuel pressure to allow fuel flow to an outlet. The movement of the sleeve is arrested by a stop surface defined by the end face of the holder. The continued movement of the valve member being under the action of the fuel pressure acting on the valve member alone, until its movement is arrested by a stop.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a fuel injection device for an air-compressing fuel-injected internal combustion engine, which has an injection line leading from a pump element of high pressure injection pump to a bifurcation branch leading to a main injection nozzle and a preinjection nozzle. A nozzle needle of the preinjection nozzle opens counter to the direction of flow of the fuel and has a body designed with a stepped piston which, in the case of a closure initiating fuel pressure lying above an opening fuel pressure of the nozzle needle, moves the nozzle into a position to end preinjection.
Abstract:
In a fuel injection nozzle for an internal combustion engine, a valve needle and a valve needle spring are provided, in which the valve needle can be opened against the force of the valve needle spring (6). In the valve needle spring chamber (8) a displacer piston (7) is arranged so as to overlap the valve needle spring (6), which piston clears a displacing volume after a pre-injection so that the pre-injection is separated from the main injection.
Abstract:
In order to perform fuel injection control for a diesel engine, data read by an ignition timing data reading means is compared with a reference data to calculate an ignition timing difference. The ignition timing error is compared with a predetermined threshold value to decide whether or not the ignition timing difference exceeds the predetermined threshold value. A pilot injection timing correction data is generated in accordance with the result of the decision. The pilot injection timing control data is instructed in accordance with the pilot injection timing correction data, and pilot injection timing control is performed in accordance with the pilot injection timing control instruction. A feedback control of a signal based on an output from the ignition timing detector is used for control of a pilot injection timing, so that ignition at a desired ignition timing is performed.
Abstract:
A fuel injection system for a diesel engine is provided with a needle-lift-suppressing type fuel injection nozzle such as the central plunger type pintle fuel injection nozzle which has a valve needle adapted to be lifted under fuel pressure fed from a fuel injection pump to increase the effective spray area with increase in the lift of the valve needle and a needle-lift-suppressing means which limits the lift of the valve needle to a pre-lift of a predetermined amount at low load and/or low speed, and a starting detecting means for detecting starting of the engine, said needle-lift-suppressing means being arranged to permit lift of the valve needle beyond said pre-lift irrespective of the engine load and engine speed when the engine is started.
Abstract:
A fuel injection nozzle for internal combustion engines, in particular a cold-starting valve which has a valve needle opening counter to the force of a closing spring, the valve needle being additionally urged in the closing direction by an adjusting piston. The adjusting piston rests on a yielding stop formed by the closing spring. The stop is formed by the upper valve plate, which has a passageway bore for an extension tang of the adjusting piston. The extension tang forms a pre-stroke stop for the valve needle. A restoring spring is associated with the adjusting piston and is disposed inside the spring chamber, which surrounds the extension tang of the adjusting piston. At least one of the spring support plates has an inner annular wall protruding in collar-like fashion, which surrounds the engaged tang of the adjusting piston or valve needle.
Abstract:
A fuel injection nozzle is proposed which opens toward the outside and functions with a valve needle and two springs, and further wherein a throttle restriction is effective after a first portion of the opening stroke, acting as a pre-stroke, and can be subsequently rendered ineffective. The two springs having a predetermined certain relationship to one another enable an abrupt increase in closing force after the pre-stroke. The first spring, embodied as a compression spring, acts in the closing direction; the second spring, having a smaller force than the first spring and acting counter to the closing direction, is rendered ineffective after the pre-stroke has been performed.
Abstract:
This invention discloses fuel injection nozzles for internal combustion engines which are known to have a needle valve that is shiftable under pressure of the fuel supply against the force of a closing spring and more particularly the improvement wherein the opening stroke of the needle valve can be changed by a transversely movable slide element that includes a spool-like body having a medial area of varying diameter which serves to limit the stroke of the needle valve.
Abstract:
A fuel injection nozzle assembly includes a retraction valve disposed and encapsulated within the same housing as the injector valve for thereby reducing the amount of fuel trapped between these valves so that the retraction valve can retract a calculated volume of the trapped fuel abruptly and obtain a sharp ending of the injection cycle.
