Abstract: A fuel injection valve is characterized in that a multi-fan stream nozzle is shaped, downstream from a fixed valve seat that is provided on the inner wall of a valve sleeve, directly into the valve sleeve itself. The multi-fan stream nozzle is integrated directly in the region of a bulge formed at the downstream end of the valve sleeve. The multi-fan stream nozzle, serving as an atomization device, possesses a plurality of slit-shaped spray openings, so that from the sheets of liquid emerging from the spray openings, sheet packets are formed in which individual sheets of liquid extend divergently from one another. Introduction of the spray openings into the deep-drawn valve sleeve is effected using ultrashort-pulse laser technology. The fuel injection valve is suitable in particular for use in fuel injection systems of mixture-compressing spark-ignited internal combustion engines.

The valve-seat body includes at least two spray-discharge orifices. The pressure of the fuel flowing through the fuel injector is greater than 10 bar.

Abstract: The fuel injector is characterized in that a multi-fan jet nozzle is disposed downstream of a valve-seat member having a fixed valve seat. The multi-fan jet nozzle is disk shaped, having a middle, bulged, crest-like nozzle area that has an elliptical elongation. In the nozzle area of the multi-fan jet nozzle used as an atomizer device, a plurality of directionally parallel spray-discharge slots is provided, which, for example, are arranged in a row. The fuel injector is particularly suitable for use in fuel-injection systems of mixture-compressing internal combustion engines having externally supplied ignition.

Abstract: A fuel injector has an orifice plate including a plurality of spray-discharge orifices, which orifice plate is situated downstream from a valve seat member having a fixed valve seat. An inflow opening, which is provided directly upstream from the spray-discharge orifices as incident-flow cavity, is designed in such a way that an incident flow to the spray-discharge orifices takes place largely at a right angle to the longitudinal extension of the spray-discharge orifices. The spray-discharge orifices are placed and oriented in such a way that at least one fuel spray in the form of a hollow cone lamella or full cone lamella is able to be spray-discharged, in which a radially outer region is made up of larger droplets than a radially inner region of the spray.

Abstract: A fuel injector includes an orifice plate situated downstream from a valve-seat body having a fixed valve seat, the orifice plate having at least one outlet opening. Provided directly upstream from the outlet openings is an inflow opening having an annular inflow cavity. The valve-seat body covers the inflow cavity in such a way that the downstream outlet openings of the orifice plate are covered. The inflow cavity directly upstream from the at least one outlet opening is configured such that the flow approaches the at least one outlet opening largely at a right angle to the longitudinal extension of the outlet opening. With regard to the cross section, the at least one outlet openings has a polygonal form, in particular one that encloses at least one triangle, or it has a meander shape with a plurality of curves in the outer contour. The fuel injector may be particularly suitable for use in fuel injection systems of the mixture-compressing internal combustion engines having external ignition.

Abstract: The fuel injector including an orifice plate which is provided with a multitude of outlet openings and situated downstream from a valve-seat body having a fixed valve seat. Directly upstream from the outlet openings is an inflow opening having an annular inflow cavity. The valve-seat body covers the inflow cavity in such a way that the downstream outlet openings of the orifice plate are covered. The outlet openings each have an inflow region whose diameter D1 is considerably larger than the diameter D2 of a region that abuts at a sharp angle directly downstream therefrom, which forms the narrowest cross section of the outlet opening and from where the outlet opening widens in the flow direction to a diameter D3 in a trumpet-shaped manner. The fuel injector may be particularly suitable for use in fuel injection systems of mixture-compressing ignition engines having externally supplied ignition.

Abstract: The fuel injector configured according to the invention is characterized by an orifice plate being situated downstream from a valve-seat body having a fixed valve seat, the orifice plate having at least one outlet opening. Directly upstream from the outlet openings is an inflow opening having an annular inflow cavity. The valve-seat body covers the inflow cavity in such a way that the downstream outlet openings of the orifice plate are covered. The flow-exposed flow-through area above each outlet opening, which is calculated as the product of the circumference of the outlet opening in the region of its entry plane and the free height in the inflow cavity, is smaller than the area of the inflow plane of the outlet opening. The fuel injector is particularly suitable for use in fuel injection systems of the mixture-compressing internal combustion engines having externally supplied ignition.

Abstract: The fuel injector includes an orifice plate being situated downstream from a valve-seat body having a fixed valve seat, the orifice plate having at least one outlet opening. Provided directly upstream from the outlet openings is an inflow opening having an annular inflow cavity. The valve-seat body covers the inflow cavity in such a way that the downstream outlet openings of the orifice plate are covered. A boundary surface of the valve-seat body lying opposite the orifice plate is designed such that, beginning at an exit opening, the height of the inflow opening decreases continuously in a first section up to the at least one outlet opening, while the height of the inflow opening in a second, radially outer section remains largely constant. The fuel injector is particularly suitable for use in fuel injection systems of the mixture-compressing internal combustion engines having external ignition.
