Brennkraftmaschine mit Dichtungsschutz für ein KraftstoffeinspritzventilInternal combustion engine with seal protection for a fuel injection valve
Stand der TechnikState of the art
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Brennkraftmaschine mit einem Dichtungsschutz für eine Dichtung eines Kraftstoffeinspritzventils.The present invention relates to an internal combustion engine with a seal protection for a gasket of a fuel injection valve.
Brennkraftmaschinen sind aus dem Stand der Technik in unterschiedlichen Ausgestaltungen bekannt. Hierbei sind insbesondere Brennkraftmaschinen bekannt, welche einen Kraftstoff mittels eines Kraftstoffeinspritzventils direkt in einen Brennraum einspritzen. Hierzu ist das Kraftstoffeinspritzventil in einem Zylinderkopf angeordnet und spritzt den Kraftstoff direkt in den Brennraum ein. Zur Abdichtung zwischen dem Kraftstoffeinspritzventil und dem Zylinderkopf wird hierbei eine ringförmige Dichtung, beispielsweise ein Teflonring, verwendet. Da im Brennraum während des Betriebes sehr hohe Temperaturen herrschen und der Dichtring zwischen dem Kraftstoffeinspritzventil und dem Zylinderkopf relativ nahe am Brennraum angeordnet ist, können insbesondere negative thermische Einwirkungen auf den Dichtring wirken. Zwar wurde festgestellt, dass sich schon nach kurzer Betriebsdauer der Brennkraftmaschine in einem Spalt zwischen dem Kraftstoffeinspritzventil und dem Zylinderkopf brennraumseitig Rußpartikel anordnen können, welche die Dichtung teilweise gegen den Brennraum thermisch isolieren. Hierbei ist es in der Praxis jedoch derart, dass die Anlagerung der Rußpartikel nicht gleichmäßig erfolgt, so dass dadurch kein zuverlässiger Schutz für die Dichtung durch die Rußpartikelanlagerung möglich ist.Internal combustion engines are known from the prior art in different configurations. Here, in particular internal combustion engines are known, which inject a fuel by means of a fuel injection valve directly into a combustion chamber. For this purpose, the fuel injection valve is arranged in a cylinder head and injects the fuel directly into the combustion chamber. For sealing between the fuel injection valve and the cylinder head in this case an annular seal, such as a Teflon ring is used. Since very high temperatures prevail in the combustion chamber during operation and the sealing ring between the fuel injection valve and the cylinder head is arranged relatively close to the combustion chamber, in particular negative thermal effects can act on the sealing ring. Although it has been found that after a short period of operation of the internal combustion engine can arrange combustion chamber side soot particles in a gap between the fuel injection valve and the cylinder head, which partially thermally isolate the seal against the combustion chamber. However, in practice it is such that the deposition of the soot particles does not take place uniformly, so that no reliable protection for the seal by the soot particle adsorption is possible.
Ferner ist aus der DE 10 2005 019 313 Al ein Kraftstoffe inspritzventi I bekannt, bei welchem ein geschlitzter Abschirmring am Kraftstoffeinspritzventil angeordnet ist. Der Abschirmring ist dabei zwischen der Dichtung und dem Brennraum angeordnet und weist einen rechteckigen Querschnitt auf. Hierdurch kann jedoch keine vollständige Abschirmung des Dichtelements sichergestellt werden, da aufgrund des Schlitzes und des rechteckigen Querschnitts kein vollständiger Schutz des Dichtelements möglich ist. Vorteile der ErfindungFurthermore, DE 10 2005 019 313 A1 discloses a fuel injection valve I, in which a slotted shielding ring is arranged on the fuel injection valve. The shielding ring is arranged between the seal and the combustion chamber and has a rectangular cross-section. In this way, however, no complete shielding of the sealing element can be ensured, since due to the slot and the rectangular cross-section no complete protection of the sealing element is possible. Advantages of the invention
Die erfindungsgemäße Brennkraftmaschine mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 1 weist demgegenüber den Vorteil auf, dass sie eine exzellente Abschirmung für einen zwischen einem Kraftstoffeinspritzventil und einem Zylinderkopf angeordneten Dichtelement bereitstellt, so dass das Dichtelement eine sehr hohe Lebensdauer aufweist. Die Abschirmung ist dabei in Axialrichtung des Kraftstoffeinspritzventils zwischen dem Dichtelement und einem Brennraum der Brennkraftmaschine angeordnet. Dabei weist die Abschirmung eine Ringform auf, welche zusätzlich einen runden Querschnitt bzw. einen radial außen abgerundeten Querschnitt hat. Die Verwendung des runden bzw. abgerundeten Querschnitts des Abschirmrings ermöglicht es dabei, dass der Abschirmring fest zwischen der Zylinderkopfwand und einer äußeren Gehäusewand des Kraftstoffeinspritzventils sitzt. Dadurch kann sichergestellt werden, dass während des Betriebes der Brennkraftmaschine im Brennraum auftretende Vorgänge keinen negativen Einfluss auf das Dichtelement haben, da das Dichtelement durch den Abschirmring geschützt ist. Die Ausbildung mit einem runden Querschnitt stellt dabei ferner sicher, dass ein linienförmiger Kontakt zwischen der Zylinderkopfwand und dem Kraftstoffeinspritzventil erreicht wird.The internal combustion engine according to the invention with the features of claim 1 has the advantage over that it provides excellent shielding for a arranged between a fuel injection valve and a cylinder head sealing element, so that the sealing element has a very long life. The shield is arranged in the axial direction of the fuel injection valve between the sealing element and a combustion chamber of the internal combustion engine. In this case, the shield has a ring shape, which in addition has a round cross section or a radially outwardly rounded cross-section. The use of the round or rounded cross-section of the shielding ring makes it possible for the shielding ring to sit firmly between the cylinder head wall and an outer housing wall of the fuel injection valve. This can ensure that processes occurring during operation of the internal combustion engine in the combustion chamber have no negative influence on the sealing element, since the sealing element is protected by the shielding ring. The design with a round cross section also ensures that a linear contact between the cylinder head wall and the fuel injection valve is achieved.
Die Unteransprüche zeigen bevorzugte Weiterbildungen der Erfindung.The dependent claims show preferred developments of the invention.
Gemäß einer bevorzugten Ausgestaltung der vorliegenden Erfindung ist der Abschirmring aus Draht hergestellt. Dadurch kann der Abschirmring besonders einfach und kostengünstig bereitgestellt werden. Ferner kann ein aus Draht hergestellter Abschirmring auch einfach montiert werden. Alternativ ist der Abschirmring aus einem hochtemperaturbeständigen Material, insbesondere einem haftungstemperaturbeständigen Kunststoff, hergestellt.According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the shielding ring is made of wire. As a result, the shielding can be provided particularly simple and inexpensive. Furthermore, a shield made of wire can also be easily mounted. Alternatively, the shield is made of a high temperature resistant material, in particular an adhesion temperature resistant plastic.
Vorzugsweise ist der Abschirmring in einer im Kraftstoffeinspritzventil gebildeten Nut angeordnet. Dadurch kann insbesondere die Zylinderkopfwand sehr einfach, z.B. als zylindrische Bohrung, ausgebildet sein.The shielding ring is preferably arranged in a groove formed in the fuel injection valve. Thereby, in particular, the cylinder head wall can be very easily, e.g. as a cylindrical bore, be formed.
Besonders bevorzugt ist das Dichtelement in einer im Kraftstoffeinspritzventil gebildeten ersten Nut angeordnet und der Abschirmring in einer im Kraftstoffe inspritzventi I gebildeten zweiten Nut angeordnet. Dadurch wird vermieden, dass der Abschirmring in direktem Kontakt mit dem Dichtelement steht. Allerdings müssen hierfür zwei separate Nuten in dem Kraftstoffeinspritzventil vorgesehen werden. Gemäß einer alternativen Ausgestaltung der vorliegenden Erfindung sind der Abschirmring und das Dichtelement in einer gemeinsamen Nut im Kraftstoffeinspritzventil angeordnet und voneinander beabstandet. Dadurch ist es möglich, dass nur eine Nut zur Aufnahme des Abschirmring und des Dichtelements im Kraftstoffeinspritzventil notwendig ist.Particularly preferably, the sealing element is arranged in a first groove formed in the fuel injection valve, and the shielding ring is arranged in a second groove formed in the fuel injection valve I. This avoids that the shielding ring is in direct contact with the sealing element. However, for this purpose, two separate grooves must be provided in the fuel injection valve. According to an alternative embodiment of the present invention, the shielding ring and the sealing element are arranged in a common groove in the fuel injection valve and spaced from each other. This makes it possible that only one groove for receiving the shielding ring and the sealing element in the fuel injection valve is necessary.
Der Abschirmring weist besonders bevorzugt eine geschlossene Ringform auf. Dies kann beispielsweise durch einen Verbindungsvorgang der freien Enden des Abschirmrings, z.B. mittels Schweißen oder Kleben, erfolgen. Dadurch werden insbesondere Probleme an einem Spalt zwischen Kraftstoffeinspritzventil und Zylinderkopfwand vermieden. Alternativ weist der Abschirmring eine offene, d.h. radial geschlitzte, Ringform auf. Dadurch kann der Abschirmring bei der Montage aufgeweitet werden.The shielding ring particularly preferably has a closed ring shape. This can be achieved, for example, by a joining operation of the free ends of the shielding ring, e.g. by welding or gluing done. As a result, in particular problems are avoided at a gap between the fuel injection valve and the cylinder head wall. Alternatively, the shield ring has an open, i. radially slotted, ring shape on. As a result, the shielding ring can be widened during assembly.
Gemäß einer weiteren alternativen Ausgestaltung der vorliegenden Erfindung ist der Abschirmring in einer Nut angeordnet, welche im Zylinderkopf gebildet ist. Dadurch kann der Abschirmring schon vor einer Montage des Kraftstoffeinspritzventils im Zylinderkopf montiert werden.According to a further alternative embodiment of the present invention, the shielding ring is arranged in a groove which is formed in the cylinder head. As a result, the shielding ring can be mounted in the cylinder head before the fuel injection valve is mounted.
Gemäß einer weiteren bevorzugten alternativen Ausgestaltung der vorliegenden Erfindung ist der Abschirmring teilweise in einer im Zylinderkopf gebildeten Nut und teilweise in einer im Kraftstoffeinspritzventil gebildeten Nut angeordnet. Mit anderen Worten sitzt der Abschirmring teilweise in der Wand des Zylinderkopfs und teilweise in dem Gehäuse des Kraftstoffeinspritzventils, wobei jeweils entsprechend tiefe Nuten gebildet sind. Die Nuten weisen vorzugsweise eine Tiefe auf, welche einem Radius des Abschirmrings mit rundem Querschnitt entspricht.According to a further preferred alternative embodiment of the present invention, the shield ring is arranged partially in a groove formed in the cylinder head and partly in a groove formed in the fuel injection valve. In other words, the shielding ring is partially seated in the wall of the cylinder head and partially in the housing of the fuel injection valve, each correspondingly deep grooves are formed. The grooves preferably have a depth which corresponds to a radius of the shielding ring with a round cross section.
Vorzugsweise ist ein Durchmesser des Abschirmrings gleich einer Dicke des Dichtelements in Radialrichtung.Preferably, a diameter of the shielding ring is equal to a thickness of the sealing element in the radial direction.
Besonders vorteilhaft ist es, den Abschirmring mit einem dünnwandigen C-förmigen Profil zu versehen, das eine konvexe Wölbung nach radial außen aufweist und damit nach innen hin einen offenen Hohlraum umschließt. Bei dieser Ausgestaltungsform des Abschirmrings handelt es sich um eine besonders materialsparende Variante, die dazu eine hohe Elastizität und Abschirmsicherheit bietet. Gemäß einer weiteren bevorzugten Ausgestaltung der vorliegenden Erfindung ist in einer vom Brennraum abgewandten Seite des Dichtelements ein erweiterter Spalt vorgesehen, welcher überschüssiges Material oder Abrieb oder Ähnliches des Dichtelements aufnehmen kann.It is particularly advantageous to provide the shielding ring with a thin-walled C-shaped profile which has a convex curvature radially outward and thus encloses an open cavity towards the inside. In this embodiment of the shield is a particularly material-saving variant, which provides a high elasticity and shielding security. According to a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, an extended gap is provided in a side facing away from the combustion chamber side of the sealing element, which can accommodate excess material or abrasion or the like of the sealing element.

Bevorzugte Ausführungsformen der ErfindungPreferred embodiments of the invention
Nachfolgend wird unter Bezugnahme auf die Figur 1 eine Brennkraftmaschine gemäß einem bevorzugten Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung im Detail beschrieben.Hereinafter, an internal combustion engine according to a preferred embodiment of the invention will be described in detail with reference to FIG.
Figur 1 zeigt die Brennkraftmaschine 1 nur teilweise und sehr schematisch. Das Bezugszeichen 2 bezeichnet dabei einen Zylinderkopf und mit dem Bezugszeichen 3 ist ein Kraftstoffeinspritzventil bezeichnet. Das Kraftstoffeinspritzventil 3 spritzt Kraftstoff 5 direkt in einen Brennraum 4 ein, was in Figur 1 schematisch dargestellt ist. DasFigure 1 shows the internal combustion engine 1 only partially and very schematically. The reference numeral 2 denotes a cylinder head and the reference numeral 3 denotes a fuel injection valve. The fuel injection valve 3 injects fuel 5 directly into a combustion chamber 4, which is shown schematically in FIG. The
Kraftstoffeinspritzventil 3 ist im Zylinderkopf 2 fixiert und weist ein Dichtelement 6 auf, welches beispielsweise ein Teflonring ist. Das Dichtelement 6 ist in einer ersten Nut 16 im Kraftstoffeinspritzventil 3 angeordnet. Das Dichtelement 6 dichtet somit den Brennraum im Bereich des Kraftstoffeinspritzventils 3 ab. Da das Dichtelement 6 relativ nahe am Brennraum angeordnet ist, ist es möglich, dass während des Betriebs derFuel injection valve 3 is fixed in the cylinder head 2 and has a sealing element 6, which is for example a Teflon ring. The sealing element 6 is arranged in a first groove 16 in the fuel injection valve 3. The sealing element 6 thus seals the combustion chamber in the region of the fuel injection valve 3. Since the sealing element 6 is arranged relatively close to the combustion chamber, it is possible that during operation of the
Brennkraftmaschine durch den Spalt 8 zwischen dem Zylinderkopf 2 und dem Kraftstoffeinspritzventil 3 negative Einflüsse auf das Dichtelement 6 wirken. Um dies zu verhindern, ist nun im Spalt 8 ein Abschirmring 7 angeordnet, welcher einen runden Querschnitt aufweist. Der Abschirmring 7 ist aus einem Drahtmaterial hergestellt und ist in einer zweiten ringförmigen Nut 17 angeordnet.Internal combustion engine through the gap 8 between the cylinder head 2 and the Fuel injection valve 3 negative influences on the sealing element 6 act. To prevent this, a shielding ring 7 is now arranged in the gap 8, which has a round cross-section. The shield ring 7 is made of a wire material and is disposed in a second annular groove 17.
Der Abschirmring 7 ist somit in Axialrichtung X-X des Kraftstoffeinspritzventils zwischen dem Dichtelement 6 und dem Brennraum 4 angeordnet. An einer brennraumabgewandten Seite des Dichtelements 6 ist ferner ein Aufnahmeraum 10 zur Aufnahme von Abrieb o.Ä. angeordnet. Der Aufnahmeraum 10 ist z.B. durch einen sich erweiterten Spalt zwischen dem Zylinderkopf 2 und dem Kraftstoffeinspritzventil 3 gebildet.The shielding ring 7 is thus arranged in the axial direction X-X of the fuel injection valve between the sealing element 6 and the combustion chamber 4. On a combustion chamber side facing away from the sealing element 6 is also a receiving space 10 for receiving abrasion or the like. arranged. The receiving space 10 is e.g. formed by an expanded gap between the cylinder head 2 and the fuel injection valve 3.
Der Abschirmring 7 mit rundem Querschnitt hat dabei den Vorteil, dass er eine linienförmige Abdichtung am Zylinderkopf und eine linienförmige Abdichtung am Kraftstoffeinspritzventil 3 ermöglicht. Hierdurch kann sichergestellt werden, dass Einflüsse aus dem Brennraum 4 nicht direkt auf das Dichtelement 6 wirken. Dadurch kann das Dichtelement 6 eine sehr lange Lebensdauer aufweisen. Insbesondere kann dadurch das Dichtelement 6 vor einer direkten Wirkung der Brennraumgase geschützt werden.The shielding ring 7 with round cross section has the advantage that it allows a linear seal on the cylinder head and a linear seal on the fuel injection valve 3. In this way it can be ensured that influences from the combustion chamber 4 do not act directly on the sealing element 6. This allows the sealing element 6 have a very long life. In particular, the sealing element 6 can thereby be protected from a direct effect of the combustion chamber gases.
Da zwischen dem Abschirmring 7 und dem Dichtelement 6 ein vorbestimmter Abstand vorhanden ist, sind das Dichtelement 6 und der Abschirmring 7 nicht miteinander in Kontakt. Dadurch kann insbesondere auch vermieden werden, dass aufgrund einer Wärmeleitung eine Beschädigung des Dichtelements auftritt.Since a predetermined distance is present between the shielding ring 7 and the sealing element 6, the sealing element 6 and the shielding ring 7 are not in contact with each other. This can also be avoided in particular that due to heat conduction damage to the sealing element occurs.
