Abstract: A fuel injection valve for arrangement in a combustion chamber (40) of an internal combustion engine has a nozzle support with a nozzle body (30) disposed thereon in fixed fashion by way of a nozzle clamping nut (20), the nozzle body designed to protrude into the combustion chamber (40) and being provided for holding a nozzle needle, and at least one annular combustion chamber sealing element (50) with an upper support surface (60) facing the nozzle clamping nut (20) and a lower support surface (70) facing the combustion chamber (40), the lower surface surrounding the nozzle body (30) and being provided for sealing the nozzle support off from the combustion chamber (40). At least one additional sealing element (80) is provided for sealing the nozzle body (30) in the area of the nozzle clamping nut (20).

Abstract: A nozzle module for an injection valve has a nozzle body with a recess with a wall, being operable to hydraulically couple the recess to a high pressure fluid circuit, a seal seat embodied on the wall, at least one nozzle needle arranged in an axially moveable fashion in the recess. The needle has a seat area with a sealing surface interacting with the seal seat to open and close the valve, respectively, and a supporting area, arranged radially outside and axially at a distance from the seat area and supporting the needle against the wall when the needle closes. The needle has at least one needle recess, which when the supporting area rests against the wall of the body recess, an area of the body recess facing axially away from the seat area is hydraulically coupled to an area of the body recess which axially faces the seat area.

Abstract: An injection device for injecting fuel comprises a nozzle needle (2), which is arranged in a nozzle body (1), and a micro-bore (10) formed in the nozzle body (1), in which at least one injection hole (8) is configured. Here one tip (3) of the nozzle needle (2) projects into the micro-bore (10) in such a way that the tip (3) is arranged at the level of the injection holes (8) in the axial direction (X—X) of the nozzle needle, with recesses being formed in the tip at the tip (3) of the nozzle needle (2) level with the injection holes (8), in order to ensure a minimum distance between the tip (3) and the injection holes (8).

Abstract: The invention relates to a multi-cylinder internal combustion engine with gas flow lift valves actuated by electromagnetic actuators and controlling the intake and the exhaust of the cylinder combustion chambers. The cross-sectional area of the actuators allocated to the intake lift valves which is perpendicular to the axial direction of the lift valves is smaller than the cross-sectional area of the actuators allocated to the exhaust lift valves. If the intake lift valves and the exhaust lift valves are arranged in series one after the other in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the internal combustion engine, the width of the intake actuators measured in the plane of the actuator cross-sectional area and perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the internal combustion engine is smaller than that of the exhaust actuators.

Abstract: The multiple actuator for an electromechanically actuated valve has a housing and a plurality of armature shafts extending through the housing. Each of the armature shafts carry an armature, and two electromagnets which both lie inside the housing. Two springs act on each armature, forcing it into a position of repose between the electromagnets. This configuration makes optimum use of the available basic area above a valve which is to be driven. The armature has a maximum surface area, and optimum dissipation of heat through thermal conduction is possible via the corresponding housing underside.

Abstract: A method and device for cooling an electromagnetic actuator device of an internal combustion engine valves. A fluid stream circulating in the internal combustion engine, especially a lubricating oil stream, is passed through each electromagnetic actuator device to cool the actuator. The amount of the fluid stream passed through the actuator is variable and is adjusted by a suitable valve arrangement in such a way that a critical component temperature of the actuators is not exceeded. An electrical actuator parameter, such as the current flowing through the coils of the actuator, which corresponds to the component's temperature is determined in an electronic control unit associated with the actuators, and is compared in the electronic control unit with the critical component temperature or a corresponding critical electrical parameter. The electronic control unit controls the valve arrangement to provide the required stream of cooling fluid.
