  • Patent number: 10550811
    Abstract: A fuel valve for injecting fuel into the combustion chamber of a large two-stroke self-igniting internal engine combustion engine, with a valve needle that is resiliently biased towards a valve seat. The effective pressure surface that causes fuel pressure to urge the valve needle in the opening direction increases significantly when the valve needle has lift from the valve seat. A supplementary effective pressure surface is provided on the valve needle. The supplementary effective pressure surface creates a force urging the valve needle towards the valve seat when the supplementary effective pressure surface is exposed to fuel pressure.

  • Publication number: 20170260948
    Abstract: An injection valve for being in contact with an abrasive fluid has a cylinder having a cylinder length, an inner cylinder diameter and a cylinder wall, and a piston having an outer piston diameter and an outer piston face, the piston being movable in the cylinder. A first tubular liner is arranged between the cylinder wall and the piston so that the piston moves, at least partly, within the first tubular liner, the first tubular liner having a liner length, a first inner liner diameter and an inner liner face that has coating.

  • Publication number: 20160258400
    Abstract: A fuel valve (50) for injecting gaseous fuel into the combustion chamber of a self-igniting internal combustion engine. The fuel valve (50) comprises an elongated fuel valve housing (52) with a rear end and a front end, a nozzle (54) with an elongated nozzle body with a hollow interior that forms a chamber (55) connected to nozzle holes (56), the nozzle (54) being arranged at the front end of the fuel valve housing (52), a gaseous fuel inlet port (53) in the elongated fuel valve housing (52) for connection to a source (60) of high pressure gaseous fuel, an ignition liquid inlet port (78,98) for connection to a source of ignition liquid (57), means (61, 69, 53, 58, 61, 69) for establishing a timed fluidic connection between the gaseous fuel inlet port and the ignition space (55), and means (61, 67, 69, 76, 79, 85, 98, 99) configured for a timed delivery of a finite volume of ignition liquid to the chamber (55) for igniting the gaseous fuel inside the chamber (55).
