    摘要: In hydraulically actuated fuel injectors, an intensifier piston is utilized with a plunger for raising fuel pressure to initiate an injection event with a VOP type fuel injector. The present invention lowers the mass flow rate of fuel at the beginning of each injection event by slowing the rate of the plunger relative to the intensifier piston by utilizing a spring to separate the two. As the spring compresses, energy from the high pressure actuation fluid is absorbed rather than transferred to raise fuel pressure. A short time into each injection event, the spring becomes fully compressed and the intensifier piston and plunger begin moving in rigid unison for the remaining of the injection event in a manner typical of prior art fuel injectors. The lowering of injection mass flow rate toward the beginning of each injection event results in improved engine performance and a lowering of undesirable exhaust emissions, especially NOx compounds.

    摘要: When two fuel shots such as the main and anchor fuel shots are closely coupled, the controller is operable to determine a total main and anchor fuel quantity, a main shot duration, and anchor delay. The total main and anchor fuel quantity is determined by subtracting a pilot shot fuel amount from the governor fuel output, and a sensor senses a rail pressure. If a triggering condition is met, preferably a main shot fuel amount being less than or equal to a minimum main shot fuel amount, the anchor duration is determined from a map using the main shot duration, anchor delay, rail pressure, and total main and anchor fuel quantity as factors for setting the anchor duration.

    摘要: An apparatus and method for controlling fuel injection signals to an engine during a sudden acceleration event. The present apparatus and method includes an electronic controller coupled to the electronically controlled fuel injectors of the engine and operable to recognize a sudden acceleration condition based upon certain sensed conditions associated with the acceleration of the engine. The controller is further operable to increase the pull-in current level and/or the hold-in current level of the fuel injection signals to improve fuel injector performance, fuel consumption, and emissions when a sudden acceleration event is recognized. Shortening the duration of the fuel shots associated with the fuel injection signal helps offset additional electrical power requirements associated with the higher current levels.

    摘要: A displacement control valve includes a valve element having a first operative position communicating a displacement controller of a variable displacement hydraulic pump with a tank for increasing the pump displacement and a second operative position communicating a discharge passage of the pump with the control port for decreasing pump displacement. The discharge passage communicates with a first end of the valve element to generate a force biasing the valve element toward the second position. An opposing biasing force is exerted on the valve element in opposition to the pressure generated force acting on the first end of the valve element so that a predetermined pressure level is established in the discharge passage when the forces acting on the valve element are equalized. The opposing biasing force is generated by a spring disposed to exert a substantially constant biasing force on the valve element and an orifice device for generating a fluid pressure at the second end of the valve element commensurate with the pressure in the discharge passage. A variable mechanical biasing force can be exerted on the valve element in concert with the opposing biasing force to change the pressure level in the discharge passage proportional to the level of the mechanical biasing force.

    摘要: A hydraulically-actuated fuel injector comprises an injector body that defines a nozzle chamber that opens to a nozzle outlet and a plunger bore, and a spill port that opens into the plunger bore. A hydraulic means within the injector body pressurizes fuel in the nozzle chamber, and includes a plunger with an end face, a side surface and a centerline. The plunger is positioned in the plunger bore and moveable a stroke distance between a retracted position and an advanced position. A needle valve member is positioned in the nozzle chamber and moveable between an open position in which the nozzle outlet is open and a closed position in which the nozzle outlet is blocked. The plunger includes a groove in its side surface that is arranged in a helical pattern about the centerline and further includes a spill passage extending between the end face and the groove. A pin and guide slot assembly, within the injector body, are provided for rotating the plunger about the centerline when the plunger is moving a portion of the stroke distance between its advanced position and its retracted position. Finally, the injector includes a control valve for stopping the plunger at a metered position between its retracted position and its advanced position when the plunger is retracting from its advanced position.
