The valve seat part includes a valve seat provided with injection openings, and is embodied as a nozzle body which is separate from the valve seat element and connected to the same. An injection valve member is guided in the housing in a longitudinally displaceable manner and co-operates with the valve seat in order to close and open the injection openings. The outer side of the valve seat part is provided with a seat surface formed by the envelope surface of a circular cone. The seat surface is used to position the valve seat part on a bearing surface on the valve seat element, also formed by the envelope surface of a circular cone.

Abstract: A fuel injection valve for an internal combustion engine which includes an axially moveable needle-like injection valve member 10 mounted in a tubular housing 2. A control element 22 with a control passage 25 is mounted in the upper end portion of the housing, and a valve element 21, 41, 46 is mounted for movement below the control element. A control chamber 20 is formed below the valve element, and a control piston 18 which is formed at the upper end of the valve member 10 bounds the lower side of the control chamber. A throttle passage 26, 42, 47 in the valve element is connected via a throttle constriction between the control passage 25 in the control element 22 and the control chamber 20. A throttle inlet 33, which is formed in the valve element 21 or in a sleeve 19 which laterally bounds the control chamber, is connected between a high pressure chamber 9 in the housing and the control chamber 20 without passage through an intermediate throttle point.

Abstract: The control space of the fuel injection valve is delimited, on the one hand, by the piston of the injection-valve member, on the other hand by the slide-valve body and circumferentially by the sleeve. Both the double-acting piston and the slide-valve body are guided in a narrow sliding fit on the sleeve. The throttle passage runs through the slide-valve body and is flow-connected permanently to the control passage in the control body. The throttle inlet leads from the high-pressure space into the control passage. The latter, on the side facing away from the slide-valve body, can, via a pilot valve, be connected to a low-pressure space and be separated again from the latter. The connection of the control passage to the low-pressure space leads to a pressure drop in the control space, with the result being that the injection-valve member moves in the direction of the slide-valve body and releases the injection nozzles.

Abstract: An injection valve member for closing or opening injection orifices of a valve seat element is integrated, in a longitudinally displaceable manner, into a central housing bore of a fuel-injection valve. The valve seat element is fixed to the housing and the part of the element that includes the injection orifices and the seat projects out of the housing. Elements for determining the rotational position of the valve seat element in relation to the housing are provided on the exterior of the part. The fuel injection valve requires simple production and assembly engineering and permits a slimline injector configuration for both large and small internal combustion engines.

Abstract: An injection valve member for the closing and opening of injection orifices of a valve seat element is installed longitudinally adjustably in a central housing bore of a fuel injection valve. The opening and closing movement sequence of the injection valve member is controlled by a control device. A control piston operatively connected to the injection valve member is loaded, on the one hand, by the fuel system pressure prevailing in a high-pressure zone and, on the other hand, by the fuel control pressure in a control space. The high-pressure zone includes the central housing bore which is closed off sealingly by a control body fixed to the housing. The control space is arranged between the control body and a piston end face and is at least temporarily delimited radially by a control sleeve which is moveable transversely to the longitudinal axis of the housing.

Abstract: A fuel injection valve for intermittent injection of fuel into the combustion chamber of a diesel or other form of internal combustion engine. The valve achieves a shorter than usual injection valve member, while avoiding valve member oscillation but retaining precise closing by implementing a solenoid controlled piston that controls movement of the valve. The piston in turn is acted upon by fuel system pressure from a high pressure feed line and from a control chamber, alternatively, depending upon the position of an actuating element. The control piston has an annular land that faces the control chamber and the piston is connected to the high pressure feed line through a tight sliding fit in a piston guide bore establishing a leak gap. A relief chamber is formed between the outlet side of the gap and the land. When the injection valve is open, the land reduces fuel flow from the relief chamber into the control chamber.

Abstract: The opening and closing motion of a control piston effectively connected to an injection valve element is optimally designed in that in addition to a first control space, there is a second control space whose volume and fuel control pressure can be changed by the piston motion. During the opening motion, the pressure in the second control space retards the opening procedure. During the closing motion, the control piston is additionally accelerated by the system pressure when there is a predetermined pressure in the second control space in order to effect rapid closing of the injection openings. Relief elements ensure a pressure balance between the second control space and the high-pressure region. One of the two control spaces is connected to the high-pressure region when there is a predetermined pressure in the second control space.

Abstract: A fuel injection valve (1; 2) for the intermittent injection of fuel into the combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine is equipped with a hydraulic control device (15; 100). The opening or closing of a control bore (61; 109) is brought about by means of an electrically controlled solenoid valve (5; 6; 7), with the result that a control pressure in a control chamber (60; 114) is influenced, thus causing the opening or closing of injection ports into the combustion chamber via a control piston (30; 110) and an injection-valve member (24). The injection event is controlled additionally by controlling the movement of a solenoid-valve pilot-valve stem (70; 125) assigned to the control bore (61; 109). Means, by which the opening movement of the injection valve member (24) takes place in two successive phases, are provided.

Abstract: A fuel injection valve for intermittent fuel injection into a combustion space of a combustion engine comprises an injection valve indirectly actuated electromagnetically by a hydraulic amplifier. The opening motion of the injection valve element remains limited at low and medium injection pressure, while the opening motion of the injection valve element is substantially more rapid and the opening path of the injection valve element substantially larger at high injection pressure than it is at low to medium injection pressure. It is possible to operate the engine over the complete load and rotational speed range under optimum injection conditions.
