Patent number: 8839765Abstract: An apparatus for injecting fuel into the combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine includes an injection nozzle (5) having an axially displaceable nozzle needle (17) to which the pressure present in a control chamber (13) when filled with fuel, can be applied in the axial direction to control the opening and closing movements of the needle. The pressure in the control camber (13) is controlled via a solenoid valve (7) opening or closing at least one inlet or outlet duct for fuel. A magnetic coil (28) cooperates with an armature (27) and a valve-closing member is coupled to the armature (27) and that can be pressed against a valve seat (15). The armature (27) is disposed in an armature chamber (19) into which the inlet or outlet duct (14) opens. The magnetic coil (28) is covered by a metal protective plate (30) on the side of the armature chamber.Type: GrantFiled: March 16, 2010Date of Patent: September 23, 2014Assignee: Robert Bosch GmbHInventor: Franz Guggenbichler

Patent number: 6431148Abstract: A fuel injection device for internal combustion engines, having a high-pressure collection chamber (common rail), which can be filled with fuel by a high-pressure pump and which communicates via injection lines with injection valves that protrude into the combustion chamber of the engine to be supplied, the opening and closing motions of the injection valves each being controlled by an electrically triggered control valve. The control valve is embodied as a 3/2-way valve which connects a high-pressure conduit, discharging at an injection port of the injection valve, with the injection line or a relief line. On the control valve member of the control valve, a hydraulic work chamber that can be filled with high fuel pressure is provided, which can be opened into a relief conduit in order to adjust the set position of the control valve member of the control valve.Type: GrantFiled: September 21, 1998Date of Patent: August 13, 2002Assignee: Robert Bosch GmbHInventors: Franz Guggenbichler, Jaroslaw Hlousek

Patent number: 5178110Abstract: A fuel injection device for injection internal combustion engines comprising a main injection plunger and a preinjection plunger, which is arranged coaxially with the latter and separated from the latter, and has a smaller diameter. The preinjection plunger is driven non-positively by the main injection plunger to make stroke movements against the force of at least one spring, which holds the preinjection plunger to bear against the main injection plunger. During the main injection, the working chamber of the preinjection plunger is connected to the working chamber of the main injection plunger, so that the preinjection plunger adds an injection portion to the main injection amount after termination of the preinjection and the spray interval, and the fuel pressure occurring in the working chamber of the preinjection plunger supports the action of the spring.Type: GrantFiled: August 19, 1991Date of Patent: January 12, 1993Assignee: Robert Bosch GmbHInventors: Franz Guggenbichler, Jaroslaw Hlousek
