摘要: A unit fuel injector is disclosed to be used in a fuel injection system of an internal combustion engine wherein each unit injector is operated independently from one another and in synchronization with the internal combustion engine. Specifically, the unit injector in accordance with the present invention includes a reciprocating plunger assembly within the unit injector that controls fuel metering as well as fuel injection, and a valve device positioned between a minor diameter plunger section and a cup of the unit injector so as to permit fuel flow in one direction for fuel injection and to restrict flow of gases in the opposite direction. The valve device effectively reduces carbon build-up on the injector surfaces and increases injector longevity while reducing maintenance. Moreover, fuel metering is accurately controlled without substantial carboning flow losses.

摘要: An electromagnetic fuel injection control valve positioned inside a fuel injector, i.e. a unit injector, for providing fast response and high pressure capability while minimizing the size and complexity of the injector. The control valve includes a valve housing having a supply inlet and fuel outlet, a center tube having a center passage and an annular valve seat, a control valve sleeve slidably mounted on the center tube and an actuator assembly having a coil spring, a stator and an armature. The control valve sleeve moves between an open position permitting fuel to flow between the supply inlet and the fuel outlet and a closed position which sealingly engages the annular valve seat for blocking the flow of fuel between the supply inlet and the fuel outlet. The coil spring biases the control valve sleeve in an open position and is positioned around the center tube. The stator is also axially positioned around the center tube and includes multiple poles. The armature connects to the control valve sleeve and reciprocates when solenoid is activated to allow for high pressure fuel injection into the combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine.

摘要: A three-way fuel injection control valve assembly is provided which includes a pilot valve for controlling the movement of a drain valve member and a separate supply valve member to minimize valve response time and transition flow losses. The solenoid operated two-way pilot valve controls the flow of fuel from a control volume formed adjacent the ends of the drain valve member and the supply valve member to begin and end an injection event. A transition flow loss limiting feature is provided which causes the drain valve member to close prior to the opening of the supply valve member and subsequently causes the supply valve member to close prior to the opening of the drain valve member during a given injection event thereby minimizing transition flow losses. The transition flow loss limiting feature includes sizing the cross sectional areas of the supply valve member and the drain valve member, sizing a bias plunger for biasing the drain valve member and sizing one or more bias springs so that no opening overlap occurs between the supply valve member and the drain valve member.

摘要: A stepped rotation fuel distribution valve for receiving and conducting metered, pressurized fuel pulses to the combustion cylinders of a diesel engine is provided. The valve includes a fuel distribution shaft rotatably mounted in a valve housing. The shaft includes a fuel discharge port that is sequentially registrable with fuel distributing passages in the housing that ultimately lead to the diesel fuel injectors associated with the combustion cylinders of the engine. A drive mechanism, which may include a stepper motor, intermittently rotates the fuel distributor shaft so that the shaft discharge port dwells in registration with one of the fuel distributing passages at the time a pressurized pulse of fuel is discharged through the shaft discharge port. The drive mechanism may also include either a set of timing gears or a spring coupling to achieve the desired intermittent rotation. In all cases, the intermittent rotation of the fuel distribution shaft prevents the shaft from rotating at a time when the discharge of a highly pressurized fuel pulse applies a high side load to the shaft which in turn can generate high frictional forces between the fuel distribution shaft and the surrounding housing.

摘要: A unit fuel injector adapted for periodic injection of fuel into a combustion chamber of an engine at variable times from cycle to cycle under the control of the engine lubrication fluid is provided, comprising an injector body containing an injector cavity and a discharge orifice communicating with one end of the injector cavity to discharge fuel into the combustion chamber, a lubrication fluid timing circuit and a fuel metering circuit separate from the lubrication fluid timing circuit. A lubrication fluid link positioned in the lubrication fluid timing circuit within the injector cavity has a variable effective length which is varied by the operation of a control valve positioned within the lubrication timing circuit to vary the timing of injection. The control valve is operated to control the flow of lubrication fluid in the lubrication fluid timing circuit to control both the timing of injection and the metering of fuel on a cycle by cycle basis. The control valve is operable to be placed in a first position in which lubrication fluid may flow through the lubrication fluid timing circuit into the timing chamber and fuel flow from the fuel metering circuit into the metering chamber is shut off and a second position in which lubrication fluid flow into the timing chamber is shut off. Lubrication fluid is maintained at a higher pressure than the fuel pressure when the control valve is in the first position to stop the movement of a metering plunger to define the metered quantity of fuel thereby avoiding the need for a bias spring. By using lubrication fluid as timing fluid in a timing circuit separate from the fuel metering circuit, the amount of fuel required by the injector and the amount of heated fuel returned to the fuel supply tank is minimized.

摘要: This disclosure relates to a unit-type fuel injector for an internal combustion engine such as a reciprocating piston internal combustion engine. The injector includes an injector body forming a plunger bore, and a plunger that reciprocates in the bore. A fuel supply passage and a drain passage are formed in the body, and a fuel injection chamber is formed at the lower end of the plunger bore. A feed hole connects the chamber with the supply passage, and a scavenge passage connects the supply and drain passages. During a retracted plunger, or fuel metering, portion of the injector cycle, the plunger opens the feed hole and closes the scavenge passage, and during a down plunger, or scavenging, portion of the injector cycle, the plunger closes the feed hole and opens the scavenge passage. An annular groove is formed between injector parts and surrounds the chamber, and the groove collects leakage. A restricted bleed hole connects the groove with the low pressure drain and removes the leakage. The feed hole is at an end of the supply passage, and the incoming fuel flows in a direct path through the supply passage and feed hole to the injection chamber.

摘要: A servo-controlled fuel injector is provided which includes a leakage limiting valve device for limiting the quantity of high pressure fuel available for leakage into the combustion chamber in the event the closed nozzle valve element fails to sealingly engage its seat between injection events. The servo-controlled fuel injector includes a control volume positioned adjacent an outer end of the nozzle valve element, a control volume charge circuit for supplying fuel to the control volume, a drain circuit for draining fuel from the control volume to a low pressure drain and an injection control valve positioned along the drain circuit for controlling the flow through the drain circuit so as to cause reciprocal movement of the nozzle valve element. The leakage limiting valve is integrated into the fuel injector body and positioned along a fuel transfer passage to block the flow of high pressure fuel to a nozzle cavity between injection events. The leakage limiting valve may be a cylindrical valve element positioned between the nozzle valve element and the injection control valve. Alternatively, the leakage limiting valve may be in the form of an annular valve sleeve slidably mounted on one end of the nozzle valve element so as to position the control volume immediately adjacent the injection control valve thereby minimizing the trapped volume and thus the valve response time.
