Abstract: An electromagnetically actuatable valve, in particular a fuel injection valve for fuel injection systems, which serves to supply fuel to internal combustion engines. The fuel injection valve comprises a valve chamber and a core upon which a magnet coil is wound by use of a carrier body. A flat armature is constructed in such a manner at its side facing core that it partially overlaps the front surface of a ferromagnetic valve chamber with its outer range of action so that the magnet circuit is guided to the flat armature via valve chamber and the front face and so that magnetic coil, when actuated, simultaneously serves as a detent for the flat armature.

Abstract: An electromagnetically actuatable valve is proposed which serves in particular to inject fuel into the intake tube of internal combustion engine operating with fuel injection systems. The fuel injection valve includes a valve housing, a shell core having a magnetic coil and a flat armature, which is positively connected to a valve element comprising a ball which protrudes through a central opening in a guide diaphragm to cooperate with a fixed valve seat. The guide diaphragm guides the ball in the radial direction relative to the valve seat. Under spring tension, the flat armature, having a guide crown, contacts the guide diaphragm and is thus guided in a plane parallel to the end face of the shell core. A first fuel fitting comprises a portion of a valve housing preshaped by a non-cutting manufacturing method; a second fuel fitting is fixed inside the first fuel fitting in such a manner that a flow conduit is defined between the first and the second fuel fittings.

Abstract: An electromagnetically actuatable fuel injection valve for fuel injection systems comprises a valve casing and a first connecting pipe which serves as a magnetic core over which a solenoid winding is disposed. A second connecting pipe is disposed interiorly to the first connecting pipe, the two pipes in combination forming a flow channel for the inflowing fuel. Flow of the fuel is facilitated through a connecting or communicating opening and a blind bore into an interior cavity of valve casing, when it flows further either via an interior bore of the first connecting pipe and a bore of the second connecting pipe. From there the fuel can proceed onward to a return flow line, or else, when the solenoid winding is energized and the valve passage between the seat and head is open, the fluid can be metered through fuel passages and injected from a preparation bore.

Abstract: A fuel injection valve and a method for the automatic establishment of the desired armature stroke of the fuel injection valve are proposed which serves the purpose of injection at low fuel pressures into the intake tube of a mixture-compressing internal combustion engine with externally-supplied ignition. The fuel injection valve includes a magnetic coil surrounding a core and a flat armature guided by at least one guide diaphragm held on its outer circumference, which is firmly connected with a movable valve element cooperating with a fixed valve seat. The fuel delivered via a fuel inlet nozzle can proceed through apertures and recesses in the guide diaphragms past the valve seat to a fuel discharge nozzle by way of which a portion of the delivered fuel can flow back again into a fuel return line. Via an annular channel the fuel stream exiting from the nozzle bore cab be prepared with air which surrounds the fuel stream.

Abstract: An electromagnetically actuatable fuel injection valve for delivering fuel in internal combustion engines comprises a valve casing and an electromagnet core on which a coil carrier carrying a solenoid winding is mounted. The fuel inflow via the feed pipe can be directed past the armature and ejected via the valve seat, fuel passage and preparation bore. The solenoid wind is disposed in the interior cavity of the valve casing in such a manner that fluid can circulate thereabout. A blind bore in the valve casing serves as an accumulator for vapor-bubbles in the fuel which may flow back to the feed pipe via an exhaust line which connects with an annular groove and an exhaust outlet.

Abstract: A fuel injection system for internal combustion engines having a multiplicity of injection valves which serves to provide fuel supply is proposed. The fuel injection system includes a common, rigid fuel line, having plug nipples into which the injection valves associated with the individual cylinders of the engine can be inserted in a sealing manner. The fuel line comprises one fuel distributor line and one fuel return flow line located one above the other. Each injection valve has one inlet stub and one outlet stub disposed concentrically relative to one another, protruding into the plug nipple in such a manner that the inflow stub communicates with the fuel distributor line and the outflow stub communicates with the fuel return flow line. As a result, not only is it possible to provide simple sealing toward the outside between the injection valve and the plug nipple but also rapid assembly of the fuel injection system is assured.

Abstract: A fuel injection valve is proposed for fuel injection systems of internal combustion engines, which serves to supply fuel into the intake tube of the engine. The injection valve includes a movable valve element which cooperates with a fixed valve seat, downstream of which are provided horizontal fuel guidance bores which discharge tangentially into a spin chamber. The spin chamber is disposed so that it widens conically in the flow direction. The fuel guidance bores simultaneously serve as metering bores. The spin chamber causes an axial speed component to be imparted to the fuel entering via the fuel guidance bores. As a result, the dwell time of the metered fuel within the spin chamber is short, and even in the case of quite short injection pulses, the fuel is still sufficiently well prepared.

Abstract: An electromagnetically actuatable valve intended in particular for the injection of fuel into the intake manifold of mixture-compressing internal combustion engines with externally supplied ignition. The valve includes a flat armature which is firmly connected with a movable valve element, embodied as a ball, to cooperate with a fixed valve seat. The flat armature is supported on a first side so as to pivot about a tilt edge provided on said side and remote from the valve seat and is retained at the tilt edge on this side by the force of a spring engaging the first side of the flat armature oriented toward the valve seat. The unilateral retention of the flat armature at the tilt edge assures the unequivocal upward and downward movement of the flat armature.

Abstract: The invention relates to a fuel injection valve having a plug connection to the fuel line, wherein at least two sealing rings are provided between the connection stud and the fuel line nipple in order to obtain emergency sealing capacity.

Abstract: An injection valve which serves as part of a fuel injection system for internal combustion engines for the purpose of injecting fuel. The injection valve comprises a nozzle body having a valve seat which cooperates with a nozzle needle, which has a needle tip arranged to protrude through an ejection opening. The needle tip and the nozzle needle are embodied as independent parts firmly connected with one another. The ejection opening is embodied in a disc, which is firmly connected with the nozzle body. In order to prevent constriction of the ejection opening during operation as a result of corrosion, the needle tip and disc are manufactured of corrosion-resistant material.

Abstract: To maintain the pressure with which fuel is injected from a fuel injection valve uniform during the injection period and to provide for atomization of the injected fuel by delivering the fuel through a nozzle adjacent a swirl chamber from a valve in which a continuous fluid flow is maintained from an inlet opening to a drain opening, an auxiliary valve is located adjacent the nozzle and coupled to the nozzle opening member, typically a needle valve cone, to interrupt return or drain fluid flow so that the full pressure of fuel delivered to the swirl chamber is available during injection time and the swirl action maintained, thus atomizing fuel being injected.

Abstract: An electromagnetic fuel injection valve in which a valve needle coupled to the armature has twisting channels for carrying fuel and for creating turbulence therein. The channels terminate in a pressure chamber whose volume is chosen to be equal to or smaller than the volume of fuel injected in a single stroke.

Abstract: An electromagnetically actuated fuel injection valve includes a coaxial assembly of a connection tube, a bushing, a housing extension and a nozzle body. All seals between adjacent faces and edges of these elements are age-resistant metal-to-metal seals. The seal between the housing extension and the nozzle body is formed by pressing the overlapping end of the housing extension over annular edges on the nozzle body. The remaining seals are welds or solder-joints.

Abstract: An electro-magnetically actuated solenoid valve is provided with two opposing valve seats between which the armature moves axially. The armature loosely holds valve closure members which cooperate with the opposing valve seats. The valve closure members are urged apart by a spring, and the combined force of this spring and of two further springs exhibits an abrupt change which stabilizes the armature in a position approximately mid-way between the two extreme positions.The end portion of the armature and of the cooperating pole piece is so configured that the path of the armature is limited to a region within which the magnetic force does not change rapidly.

Abstract: An electromagnetic 3-way valve arrangement having two valves, each controlled by a separate armature of a single coil solenoid, is described. The top end of each armature has a self-aligning closing element, and the two armatures are held apart by springs acting against an intermediate member, which also contains the valve seat for the lower armature. When deenergized, these springs act against the armatures to close the upper valve and open the lower valve. When the solenoid coil is partially energized, it moves the lower armature upward to close the lower valve also. When the solenoid coil is fully energized, it moves the upper armature downward to open the upper valve. If desired, the armature can be disposed within the solenoid so that the upper armature is operated at partial energization, and the lower armature at full energization of the solenoid coil.
