Abstract: A rotary piston engine comprises a stationary housing and a piston movably accommodated in the housing. The housing and the piston form at least one chamber with a chamber surface. At least one partial portion of the chamber surface has a thermal barrier coat for reducing a thermal conductivity of the partial portion of the chamber surface. At least one partial portion of the chamber surface has a metallic spray coat. A method for producing such a rotary piston engine can also be achieved.

Abstract: In a fuel supply system for a spark-ignition internal combustion engine having a blow-in valve for each cylinder for blowing an easily ignitable mixture of a liquid fuel and a combustion gas via a blow-in nozzle into a combustion chamber of the internal combustion engine, the blow-in valve has a pressure connection for supplying pressurized combustion gas to a blown-in nozzle from an external pressure source, and the blow-in valve has a piston/cylinder unit for delivering the liquid fuel for injection into the cylinder together with the combustion gas, with a plunger being provided for an at least indirect actuation of a nozzle needle of the blow-in nozzle controlling the injection of a metered quantity of fuel and the combustion gas into the combustion chamber.

Abstract: A fuel injection system for an internal-combustion diesel engine has a fuel injector, typically one of several, supplied by way of a high-pressure fuel line with highly pressurized fuel for the injection of the fuel into the combustion space of the internal-combustion engine during an injection operation. A pressure control valve connected in front of the fuel injector in the high-pressure fuel line is provided for controlling the pressure of the fuel injected during the injection operation. The pressure control valve contains a freely displaceable piston operating on both sides and a slide connected into the flow path of the high-pressure fuel line for the opening and closing of the passage cross-section of the flow path of the high-pressure fuel line as a function of the position of the piston.

Abstract: Following installation of a device for functionally testing an electronically controlled regulating system in a motor vehicle, it is operated, and during its operation data is detected and stored in a test system at a production facility. The data collection occurs for the duration of a particular vehicle's operation over a defined distance at the production facility.

Abstract: A servo valve for an injection nozzle includes a housing having a valve chamber, a high-pressure opening, a connecting opening and a return opening. The valve chamber movably accommodates a valve member which can be displaced by actuating means to bear selectively against a first seat and a second seat. The valve member, when bearing against the first seat, closes the return opening and connects the high-pressure opening to the connecting opening. When bearing against the second seat it closes the high-pressure opening and connects the connecting opening to the return opening. The connecting opening is connected to a working chamber of the injection nozzle whose nozzle is closed when the working chamber is subjected to high pressure and opens upon a drop in pressure in the working chamber. The actuating means includes a component which varies in length when electrically actuated and which is connected to the valve member through the return opening by way of an actuating member.

Abstract: In a piezo-control valve for fuel injection systems of internal combustion engines wherein a piezo-ceramic actuating rod is mounted with one end firmly to one end of a valve housing having a nozzle body with a valve seat disposed at the other end and a nozzle control needle is disposed in the nozzle body and pressed by the piezo-ceramic actuating rod onto the valve seat in the nozzle body when the piezo-ceramic actuating rod is not activated, the valve housing includes a sleeve-like portion disposed around the piezo-ceramic actuating rod which consists of a material compensating for temperature-caused changes in the length of the piezo-ceramic actuating rod.

Abstract: An injection nozzle for use in a common-rail system includes a nozzle body with an actuator piston. In the closed condition of the nozzle the nozzle body bears against a seat and upstream of the seat delimits a nozzle chamber communicated with the high-pressure line of the common-rail system. A working chamber of the actuator piston is communicated with the high-pressure line by way of a feed throttle means, the active surface area of the actuator piston being larger than the surface area of the nozzle body which is effective in the nozzle chamber. A return line leads from the working chamber through a return valve. An actuating means is operated by an electrical signal for actuating the valve member of the return valve. The actuating means is a means which displaces the return valve member in analog relationship with the electrical signal so that the return valve forms in the return line a throttle of variable cross-section.
