  • Patent number: 11454191
    Abstract: A method for operating an internal combustion engine of a motor vehicle having a cylinder, the combustion chamber of which is delimited in the radial direction by a cylinder wall and in the axial direction by a piston and by a combustion chamber roof. The piston has an annularly peripheral piston stage which is arranged axially recessed in the piston compared with an annularly peripheral piston crown and which merges via an annularly jet splitter contour into a piston hollow arranged axially recessed in the piston in relation to the piston stage. An injector is allocated to the cylinder and via the injector several injection jets are simultaneously injected directly into the combustion chamber in a star shape for a combustion process.

  • Patent number: 11085632
    Abstract: A nozzle for a combustion chamber of an engine for providing a fuel-air mixture at a nozzle exit opening of the nozzle includes a nozzle main body including the nozzle exit opening and extends along a nozzle longitudinal axis. The nozzle main body has a first air guiding channel, a fuel guiding channel and a further, radially outwardly second air guiding channel. One end of the fuel guiding channel is positioned in front of the end of the second air guiding channel. A tapering channel portion with a shell surface inclined with respect to a nozzle longitudinal axis in the axial direction and connects to a radially outer shell surface of the fuel guiding channel is formed between the end of the fuel guiding channel and the end of the second air guiding channel at the nozzle.
