    摘要: A glow sensor which combines functions of a diesel engine glow plug with an ion sensor for sensing engine combustion initiation and characteristics includes a ceramic rod retained in a supporting ceramic sleeve carried by a metal shell mountable in an engine cylinder head. The ceramic rod includes a heating element in a glow tip at the inner end of the rod which, in use, extends into an engine combustion chamber or pre-chamber. A conductive material such as platinum or palladium is coated on the lower end of the glow tip and connected by a conductor with a source of electric voltage. In use, the voltage produces a current carried by electrons generated by ionization of the combustion chamber gases during combustion. The current varies with the degree of ionization and the amount of electrons generated during various phases of the combustion event. The resulting information is usable in controlling engine operation or evaluating its operation for test purposes. Various construction features of disclosed embodiments include an internal conductor through the ceramic rod from the platinum or palladium material to a lead or an external conductor applied on the surface of the ceramic rod with which an insulating ceramic sleeve is utilized to mount the rod within its supporting shell. Grounding connections through an additional lead from the outer end of the ceramic rod or via metallic connections through the ceramic sleeve to the shell are alternatively disclosed.

    摘要: A hydraulic lash adjuster is provided for interfacing between a piezoelectric element and a control valve in a piezoelectric actuated fuel injector. The hydraulic lash adjuster includes an inner plunger having an axial passage for storing a working fluid therein, and an outer body having a socket dimensioned to receive the inner plunger. The inner plunger is movably coupled into the socket of the outer body so as to form a working chamber between a bottom outer surface of the inner plunger and a bottom surface of the socket in the outer body. The hydraulic lash adjuster further includes a feed valve assembly disposed in the passage of the inner plunger for providing the working fluid from the passage to the working chamber, thereby minimizing the volume of the working chamber.

    摘要: The invention relates to an injection valve (10) for the fuel injection in a internal combustion engine, in particular in a diesel engine. The injection valve (10) has a holder body (20) in which a first passage (30) is formed. At the holder body (20) a nozzle body (40) of an injection nozzle (16) is secured in which a second passage (54) is formed which is connected to the first passage (30) and which together with the latter forms a fuel infeed line for the injection nozzle (16). Moreover, a closure mechanism (60) is provided for the closing off of the injection nozzle (16). A sleeve (74) serves for the sealing off of the connection point between the first and the second passage (30, 54).

    摘要: An electrically controlled hydraulic actuated fuel injector wherein the amount of return fuel flow is substantially reduced without adversely affecting injection valve operation. An improved control valve armature valve disk of faster acting construction is also included. In one embodiment, dual pressurizing passages of differing diameters provide lower total fuel flow to a control chamber than the outflow through a depressurizing passage controlled by a control valve. Upon full opening of the injection valve, all return fuel flow is supplied to the control chamber through the smaller pressurizing passage, thereby reducing the requirement for pressure fuel flow. Upon closing of the control valve, cutting off discharge through the depressurizing passage, both of the dual pressurizing passages help fill the control chamber to quickly close the injection valve. The improved control valve armature is a small magnetically responsive disk fixed to a metal guide shim having a periphery clamped in the injector housing. Integral fingers of the shim are fixed to the disk, guiding its opening and closing motion free from rubbing on the housing. The fingers lie near the periphery of the shim and disk, allowing room for fuel flow between the disk and an associated solenoid to which the disk is attracted when the control valve is open. Hydraulic resistance to closing of the control valve is thus reduced.
