  • Patent number: 7000450
    Abstract: In a method for measuring the injection quantity of injection systems, in particular for motor vehicles and in particular in production testing, an injection system injects a testing fluid into a measuring chamber. A detection device detects a movement of a piston, which at least partially defines the measuring chamber. This detection device generates a corresponding measurement signal. In order to increase the precision of the calculation of the injected testing fluid mass, the invention proposes that the pressure of the testing fluid in the measuring chamber be detected and that the measurement signal be processed taking into account the detected pressure.

  • Publication number: 20030177817
    Abstract: In a method for measuring the injection quantity of injection systems (32, 33), in particular for motor vehicles and in particular in production testing, an injection system (32, 33) injects a testing fluid into a measuring chamber (45). A detection device (68) detects a movement of a piston (40), which at least partially defines the measuring chamber (45). This detection device (68) generates a corresponding measurement signal (sm). In order to increase the precision of the calculation of the injected testing fluid mass, the invention proposes that the pressure (p) of the testing fluid in the measuring chamber (45) be detected and that the measurement signal (sm) be processed (80) taking into account the detected pressure (p).

  • Publication number: 20030150259
    Abstract: An apparatus (10) for measuring the injection quantity of injection systems (32), in particular for internal combustion engines in motor vehicles and especially in production testing, includes a measurement chamber (45). A connecting device (28) is also provided, by which at least one injection system (32) can be made to communicate with the measurement chamber (45) in pressuretight fashion. A piston (40) is passed through a wall of the measurement chamber (45). A detection device (58) is also provided, with which a motion of the piston (40) can be detected. To increase the measurement accuracy of the apparatus (10), it is proposed that the detection device (58) function in noncontacting fashion.
