Definitions
- the invention relates to the device for fuel injection into combustion chambers according to the preamble of the main claim.
- a known device of this type FR PS 1 382 697
- the fuel is passed shortly before or after the injection through a tubular heating device, in order to maintain a temperature which facilitates the ignition.
- Disadvantages of this known device are, on the one hand, that the fuel is heated before it meets the combustion air, and, on the other hand, that the almost divergent requirements of cold start heating and constant operating heating must be able to be met with only one heating element.
- the heating temperature must not be too high in order not to lead to combustion-free decomposition of the fuel with subsequent coking.
- the amount of fuel to be injected depends on the pressure and cross-section and is measured for a certain amount of combustion air in the combustion chamber. As soon as there are changes in the predetermined air-fuel ratio due to changes in cross-section of the spray hole, this has a direct effect on the combustion quality, ie the fuel-air mixture is either too lean or too rich.
- Heating the fuel before it emerges from the fuel injection nozzle results in a change in volume even before it penetrates the spray hole, so that there are fewer units of heat available per unit volume when the fuel is heated and thus expanded than when the fuel is cold and has a smaller volume. Due to the heating, the change in volume can be particularly significant when the physical state changes from liquid to gaseous. The consequence of this is that the injected - blown - amount of fuel does not correspond to the assigned amount of air with respect to the heating units and, in turn, the above-mentioned disadvantage of either too rich or too lean fuel air noise is the result.
- a heater intended for continuous operation should manage with the lowest possible output and have a heat-storing effect.
- the requirement for the lowest possible power consumption is based primarily on energy consumption and secondly on energy-dependent wear.
- the desire for a storage effect is particularly desirable in internal combustion engines in which the fuel is injected intermittently and the heat loss is therefore also intermittent. In this way, the cooled element can be reheated during the heat removal pauses.
- hot and cooling phases can alternate rapidly in an internal combustion engine - depending on the power output thereof - for which heat storage is advantageous.
- glow plugs or pins which are installed in the combustion chamber. In the area of their tip, they create favorable conditions for the heating, evaporation and ignition of a part of the fuel, which then ignites the entire fuel jet.
- the invention. Device with the characterizing features of the main claim has the advantage that it enables very simple means to get a start heating and / or permanent heating.
- it is important for this solution that essentially the combustion air which accompanies the injecting fuel as a flow is heated.
- This makes it possible for the hot combustion air to mix the fuel intensively and largely homogeneously with the combustion air due to the significantly lower flow velocity than the fuel jet by tearing the jet apart due to physical resistance effects on the one hand and thermal expansion on the other.
- This mixing naturally has temperature equalization between fuel and air - optimal conditions for favorable ignition behavior. It is very important that the processes described involve only the edge zone of the fuel jet with 5 to 20% of the full load. The heating energy expenditure is thereby considerably reduced.
- heating elements with different effects has the advantage that at least one heating element for the starting power, i. H. high heat output in a short time, and another heating element for continuous operation, d. H. lower performance can be combined over a long time. Since primarily the combustion air is heated by convective heat emission from the heating element, the respective heating element can be arranged according to the invention in such a way that sufficient combustion air covers a correspondingly sufficient heating surface. It is possible according to the invention that a very large heating surface is used for rapid heating and a correspondingly small heating surface for continuous heating, 'for example the large heating surface being switched off after the start and the small heating surface remaining in operation continuously.
- a different heating temperature may be sufficient for the different effectiveness, namely one with, for example, the same temperature Surface heating temperature for cold start heating and a lower temperature for permanent heating.
- the cold start heater almost always has a higher power consumption, but only for a short time.
- a plurality of heating elements can be connected electrically in parallel and one behind the other in terms of flow. Due to the electrical parallel connection, switching on and off is an alternative, with the air to be heated having to pass through all the heating elements.
- the sequence of the heating elements is chosen according to the heating requirements.
- a rapid heating element, then a permanent heating element and then again a rapid heating element can be arranged in the flow direction.
- one of the rapid heating elements is used for a normal cold start, but both if it is particularly cold or if there are other starting difficulties, and it is also conceivable that part of the heating elements is exposed to the combustion air flow before it hits the fuel jet hits, and a further part of the heating elements is then provided downstream of the fuel inlet.
- heating wires can be used as the heating element itself. While thermistors are particularly suitable for larger areas that can be covered by the combustion air, heating wires are special Finding advantages in the design as a heating coil, which is surrounded by the combustion air and the core of which may be penetrated by the fuel jet. Here, too, several such coils can be connected in series, or different elements, such as heating conductors and coils, can be successively exposed to the combustion air.
- a plurality of heating elements can be connected in series electrically and in terms of flow technology.
- different heat emission can also take place according to the requirements, even in the case of a series connection.
- the heating element for a cold start can be switched on automatically when the combustion air is cold and sucked in, in order then to be out of operation when the internal combustion engine is warm. It is also conceivable that a continuous heating element only goes into operation when a cold start element has already been switched off.
- the heating element is arranged on a ceramic body, which absorbs heat and emits a certain storage effect.
- the heating element can be designed as a recessed metal layer or as a heating coil, which more or less is exposed to the air flow, so that part of the heat is given off directly to the air, another part is given off to a ceramic body which, due to the thermal storage capacity entered into it, returns the heat to the heating element in a balancing effect in part during the spraying times.
- the support body consists of electrically conductive ceramic material and itself forms a heating element, preferably the permanent heating element for constant operational use.
- the ceramic support body can preferably consist of a ceramic material with a negative temperature coefficient (NTC resistance), preferably of SiC. With appropriate coordination with the metallic heating element, the ceramic support body could, however, also consist of a material with a positive temperature coefficient (PTC resistance), for example MOSi 2 .
- NTC resistance negative temperature coefficient
- MOSi 2 positive temperature coefficient
- the specified materials are particularly resistant to thermal shock and can be used in both reducing and oxidizing atmospheres up to high temperatures (SiC bi3 approx. 1150oC, MoSi 2 up to approx. 1300 ° C).
- the metallic heating element can be made of a material with a positive temperature coefficient (PCT resistance) preferably made of a platinum alloy.
- PCT resistance positive temperature coefficient
- Such a heating element can be combined with the ceramic incandescent body as a second heating element to form a fast-responding permanent glow element.
- the metallic heating element glows within a short time when the engine is preheated and started, provides the high starting power and also heats the ceramic support body until it becomes conductive and heats itself up by self-consumption.
- the current load of the metallic heating element designed as a PCT resistor goes back to lower values, so that continuous operation of the metallic heating element is also possible without damage.
- the ceramic support body which is designed as an incandescent body with self-heating, is also particularly well suited for forming channels through which the combustion air accompanying the squirting fuel is guided.
- the interaction of the metallic heating element with the ceramic supporting body can be influenced in a targeted manner if the metallic heating element has good heat-conducting contact with the supporting body at least over part of its length.
- the sections of the metallic heating element which are in thermally conductive contact with the support body heat up more slowly than its other line sections and therefore remain longer in a lower resistance range.
- the sections of the In this case, metallic heating element can be arranged in that area of the glow plug in which the accompanying combustion air has already mixed with the edge zones of the fuel jet.
- a particularly effective arrangement results when the support body has a central bore for the passage of the fuel and the metallic heating element is provided with at least one, but preferably a plurality of helical sections arranged on the bore wall of the support body.
- the spiral section of the mechanical heating element arranged on the bore wall of the support body additionally ensures good swirling or mixing of the accompanying combustion air with the edge zones of the fuel jet.
- the air-guiding device conducts the flow of the combustion air accompanying the injecting fuel before it enters the central bore of the support body via its outer jacket and that the line sections of the metallic heating element connecting the inner coil sections pass through the outer jacket or through Outer jacket outgoing recesses of the support body are guided.
- the accompanying combustion air is preheated well before it is touched or mixed with the injecting fuel.
- the line sections of the metallic heating element connecting the inner coil sections are also designed as coils which are appropriately inserted into slots extending radially from the circumference of the support body and extending close to its central bore wall.
- the length of the spiral sections of the metallic heating element arranged in the slots of the support body can be approximately 50% of its total length.
- the inner coil sections of the metallic heating element located in the central bore of the support body glow, for example, within 1 to 2 seconds in the temperature range from approximately 1200 to 1400 ° C.
- the other spiral sections inserted in the slots of the support body are much slower in the temperature rise with more intensive thermal contact with the support body.
- the PTC effect of the metallic heating element now leads to the fact that the high temperature, which is important for the starting phase, of the inner spiral sections facing the injection jet decreases to the extent that the increase in resistance of the slowly heating spiral sections progresses in the slots of the supporting body.
- This self-regulating effect thus brings the high heating element temperature, which is important for the starting phase, back to a value which no longer affects the service life of the metallic heating element.
- the temperature of the support body, heated by the metallic heating element continues to increase until its resistance has dropped so far that the support body itself, with the voltage applied, becomes a heating conductor.
- a fuel injection nozzle with only one spray opening such as a peg nozzle or an outward opening nozzle, or a multi-hole nozzle.

- a fuel injection nozzle 2 on which a heating device 3 is arranged, is inserted into an engine block 1.
- the fuel injector 2 has a nozzle body 4 and a valve needle 5 working therein, and a nozzle clamping nut 6, with which the nozzle body 4 is clamped to a nozzle holder, not shown, and which acts with its one end face on a spacer ring 7 between the motor housing 1 and the fuel injection nozzle 2.
- a housing 9 of a heating device which has two rapid heating elements 10 and one continuous heating element 11, is inserted into a recess 8 of the nozzle clamping nut 6.
- the heating elements 10 and 11 are carried by ceramic bodies 12 and 13 which are arranged in the housing 9 of the heating device 3. To the heating elements
- a bulb switch 18 controls the electrical connection to the rapid heating element. As soon as a sufficient ambient temperature is reached, the bimetal switch opens and the rapid heating stage is switched off.
- Radial openings 19 are provided in the housing 9, via which combustion air reaches the housing 9 of the heating device from the combustion chamber 20 of the internal combustion engine.
- the fuel jet penetrating within the heating elements acts like a water jet pump and attracts the combustion air via the radial openings 19 via further radial openings 21, so that a kind of circulation of the combustion air from combustion chamber 20 takes place again in combustion chamber 20, this combustion air flowing past the heating elements.
- the structure of fuel injection nozzle 2 and heating device 3 is basically the same as in the first exemplary embodiment.
- the ceramic part arranged in the housing 9 of the heating device formed as a bushing 22, which is held in position by means of a spring ring 23 and whose inner bore has helical grooves 24 in which the heating elements are arranged, which consist of helical heating wires 25.
- the heating wires have a flat, rectangular cross section in order to have the largest possible surface that can be covered by the air.
- the ceramic bushing 22 consists of two half-shells.
- the band-shaped heating coil is corrugated again in order to optimally enlarge the surface.
- three heating elements are arranged one behind the other in this socket 22.
- the coil closest to the nozzle body is most densely corrugated.
- the folding distance of the individual shafts is very tight, with a not inconsiderable part of the heating element disappearing in the groove 24 of the ceramic part 22. It therefore protrudes only a relatively small part into the combustion air flow, so that only a relatively slow heating takes place.
- the ceramic area is heated up relatively strongly here and has a heat-storing effect.
- FIG. 4 shows a section along the line BB in FIG. 2, in which a second heating element of the heating coil is shown, which is less strongly corrugated and rests less strongly in the ceramic region. While here this Helix is only supported in the spiral groove of the ceramic body via 7 lugs 26, the heating sections 27 located between these lugs 26, which are directly exposed to the air flow, bring about a substantial immediate increase in the heating area. With this medium heating element, a corresponding medium heating rate can also be achieved.
- Fig. 5 in which a section along the line C-C in Fig. 2 is shown, the heating coil rests only on 4 lugs 28, so that the intermediate sections 29 offer an almost maximum heating surface.
- This spiral section is intended for rapid heating, that is to say during a cold start.
- these heating tapes can also have a different width.
- FIG. 6 shows a circuit diagram of how it could look for the second exemplary embodiment.
- the resistors labeled R A , R B , R C correspond to the heating elements in the area of the section AA, BB, CC.
- the three resistors are connected in series and an adjustable resistor D is connected upstream of them. Due to the fixed design of the heating elements, the proportions of the heating elements are basically already fixed, the total output of which can be changed via the adjustable resistance.
- the resistance R C in particular has a very high temperature output at the beginning, which then falls back to an average value, such as after some
- FIG 8 shows a circuit diagram in which the resistors R A , R B and R C are arranged in parallel, an adjustable resistor D 1 , D 2 and D 3 being assigned to each of these in series. Instead, a switch can also be made via integrated calf conductors.
- the exemplary embodiment according to FIG. 9 also has the same basic structure as the above-described embodiments, so that here too reference is only made to the different structural details.
- the heating device 3 has an inner metallic heating element 30, which is formed from a glow wire which is coiled both with its diameter d 1 around its longitudinal axis and with its diameter d 2 around the axis of the injection nozzle and consists of a material with a positive temperature coefficient .
- the material diameter of the glow wire is matched to the helix diameters d 1 and d 2 in such a way that an inherently rigid structure results which withstands the deformation forces occurring during operation.
- the heating element 30 is surrounded with little play by an annular support body 31, which consists of electrically conductive ceramic material with a negative temperature coefficient and forms a second heating element.
- support body 31 is slotted lengthwise at one point on its circumference and contacted on an edge with an electrical conductor 32, to which one end of heating element 30 is also connected.
- annular space 33 is formed, which is connected via bores 34 in the housing 9 to the combustion chamber of the machine and via edge notches 35 in the support body 31 to the interior thereof.
- the two heating elements 30 and 31 are centrally held on the housing 9 by means of the spring plate ring 23 also provided here and via a perforated panel 36 made of electrically insulating material.
- the pinhole 36 also protects the injection nozzle 5 against infrared radiation and also covers the edge notches 35 in the support body 31 towards the injection nozzle.
- an intermediate plate 37 is provided, which is also made of electrically insulating material.
- the two connections of the heating element 30 and the support body 31 which are not connected to the conductor 32 are connected to the housing 9 serving as a ground connection.
- both heating elements 30 and 31 are connected to voltage in parallel with one another.
- the metallic heating element 30 then glows very quickly, while the ceramic heating element 31 only begins to heat up slowly. After a certain operating time, the ceramic heating element 31 has reached its permanent annealing temperature, while the heating element 30 is subjected to less electrical stress than initially due to its increased resistance. As a result, the metallic heating element 30 is not damaged in continuous operation.
- the glow plug initially produces a high heating output and then drops to an average heating output, which is one Fuel jet 38 draws combustion air from the combustion chamber along flow lines 39, which is already preheating on the outside of the ceramic support body 31 and penetrates into the edge zone of the fuel jet inside the support body 31, where it mixes intensively with the fuel droplets in the edge zone.
- FIGS. 10 to 12 is the same as the embodiment according to FIG. 9 except for a differently designed glow plug.
- This has an annular ceramic support body 40, which has a radial separation slot 41 at one point.
- the support body 40 is also provided with a multiplicity of uniformly distributed longitudinal slots 42, which extend from its circumference 44 and extend up to the distance a to its central bore 45.
- the longitudinal slots 42 are recessed at the upper end of the support body 40 over an axial length b into the central bore 45 so that they each form a passage 46 to the bore 45 there.
- the support body 40 is provided with a central recess 47 of depth c and diameter e.
- a core ring 48 remains between the passages 46 and the recess 47 and is only interrupted by the continuous separating slot 41.
- the support body 40 is made of an electrically conductive ceramic material which has a negative temperature coefficient and has a noticeable electrical conductivity only at higher temperatures.
- the separating slot 41 bounding surfaces of the support body 40 are with local Ver depressions 50 are provided, in the area of which a groove 51 leading to the adjacent slot 42 opens out in the circumference 44 of the supporting body 40.
- contact elements 52 are arranged which connect the support body 40 in an electrically conductive manner to connecting wires 53 which are guided through the grooves 51.
- the support body 40 is coated on its entire surface with an electrically insulating layer, which is not particularly shown in the drawing.
- a metallic heating element 55 which consists of a filament with a positive temperature coefficient, is wound onto the support body 40.
- the heating element 55 has a number of inner spiral sections 56 corresponding to the number of slots 42, each of which runs opposite one slot 42 at a small distance along the wall of the bore 45.
- Each inner helical section 56 is assigned an outer helical section 57, which is suitably inserted into the corresponding slot 42 and is in good heat-conducting contact with the support body 40.
- the two radially opposite coil sections 56, 57 are connected via an elongated filament section 58 arranged in the passage 46.
- an outer coil section 57 is connected to an inner coil section 56 lying in an adjacent division plane via an elongated filament section 59.
- the longitudinal slots 42 also largely avoid thermal tensioning of the support body 40 during operation.
- the support body 40 is preferably made of SiC, while the heating element 55 consists of a material with a PTC characteristic, for example a platinum alloy or MoSi 2 .
- the number of longitudinal slots 42 and the slot depth is determined by the helix diameter and the wire length of the heating element 55 to be accommodated, and by the desired support body resistance at a specific support body temperature.
- the helical sections 56 of the heating element 55 located in the bore 45 glow in the temperature range from 1200 to 1400 ° C. within, for example, 1 to 2 seconds.
- the spiral sections 56 thus act as a starting winding, which has the very rapid rise in temperature due to the high current consumption.
- the other spiral sections 57 of the heating element 55 inserted in the longitudinal slots 42 are with more intense heat Conductive contact to the support body 40 much slower in the temperature rise and remain longer in the lower temperature range. As a result, the starting winding effect of the inner spiral sections 56 is further enhanced. In this phase of the highest temperature of part of the heating element 55, the engine starts.
- the PTC effect of the heating element 55 now leads to the fact that the high temperature of the inner spiral sections 56, which is important for the starting phase, decreases to the extent that the increase in resistance of the slowly heating spiral sections 57 in the longitudinal slots 42 progresses. This self-controlling effect thus reduces the high heating power of the spiral sections 56, which is important for the starting phase, to a value which no longer impairs the service life of the heating element 55.
- the temperature of the support body 40 increases, which is also heated by the heating element 55.
- the electrical resistance of the NTC ceramic of the support body 40 decreases to such an extent that the support body itself, when the voltage is applied, draws current and becomes the heating conductor.
- the outer coil sections 57 which are closely connected to the support body 40, are of PTC character, which leads to a further increase in the resistance of the heating element 55, so that the power component of the PTC circuit drops further.
- the support body 40 which has become a heating element, now takes over the ignition aid as an NTC heating circuit for the now warm-up phase of the machine.
- This heating circuit can be switched off after the operating temperature of the machine has been reached or can remain switched on as a robust heating element for other tasks in improving the combustion process in the machine.
- the combustion air sucked out of the combustion chamber by the fuel jet ejected from the injection nozzle is guided over the outer circumference and through the longitudinal slots of the support body 40 and is preheated there very effectively in the desired manner.
- the heating element 55 continues to operate after the increase in its resistance in the "gentle cycle".
- the ceramic support body 40 can be formed at least on the jacket without an electrically insulating coating.
- the turns of the outer spiral sections 57 may be undone. short-circuited, which counteracts the PTC effect of the heating element 55.
- This PTC effect can, however, be matched to the other parameters in such a way that it outweighs the short-circuit effect and that the desired overall effect nevertheless occurs.
