(57) [Abstract] [Purpose] A fuel injection apparatus for a multi-cylinder internal combustion engine, which supplies fuel to a plurality of cylinders by a fuel injection valve having at least one orifice capable of injecting fuel in a plurality of directions, Provided is a fuel supply device and a supply method that enable fuel to be distributed to each cylinder as evenly and stably as possible. In a fuel supply system for an internal combustion engine, a fuel injection valve 6 is provided with one or more orifices capable of injecting fuel in a plurality of directions, and an intake path is divided into a plurality of branches extending to each cylinder of the engine. Intake branch pipes 4 are included, and each intake branch pipe extends substantially linearly from the mounting position of the fuel injection valve to each cylinder of the engine 5. Since the intake path extends linearly, the fuel injected from each orifice of the injection valve does not collide with the wall surface of the intake branch pipe on the way, but goes straight to the vicinity of the intake valve of the engine while diffusing. Although the wall collision position in each intake path cannot be set to exactly the same condition, the difference between each cylinder can be reduced by setting the position of each intake port of the engine.

However, in the fuel injection device constructed as the former, the mounting position of the fuel injection valve, the relationship between the air flow direction and the fuel injection direction, the fuel injection timing, etc. Due to the influence, there is a drawback that fuel cannot be uniformly supplied to each cylinder. As a result, the fuel distribution among the cylinders deteriorates, and there is a problem that a large number of man-hours are required for positioning the fuel injection valve. Further, the air flow in the intake branch pipe is greatly different between when the engine speed is high and when the engine speed is low, and as a result, the fuel distribution characteristics between the cylinders are not stable, resulting in a decrease in engine output and exhaust gas emission. Could lead to an increase in harmful components.

On the other hand, in the latter method, the fuel is supplied to each cylinder through the distribution pipe, so that the fuel distribution among the cylinders is appropriately maintained, but the air and the fuel are mixed well in the intake branch pipe. Since it is not performed, there was a problem that complete combustion cannot be expected. Further, the use of the distribution pipe for supplying fuel to each cylinder complicates the structure, increases the number of parts, and causes a cost increase.

Since the intake path extends linearly, the fuel injected from each orifice of the injection valve does not collide with the wall surface of the intake branch pipe on the way, but diffuses and goes straight to the vicinity of the intake valve of the engine. . It is not possible to make the fuel wall collision position in each intake path exactly the same, but it is possible to reduce the difference between the cylinders by setting at least the position of each intake port of the engine. Since the wall collision position of the fuel is at each intake port of the engine or a position downstream thereof, the fuel is sucked into the engine without adhering to the wall surface of the intake passage during that time. That is, the amount of fuel adhering to the wall surface of the intake path is greatly reduced. Therefore, the amount of fuel sucked into each cylinder of the engine is always determined by the metering by a plurality of orifices of the fuel injection valve, with little difference between the intake branch pipes.

Further, since the air flow supplied from the intake path is configured so as not to affect the direction of the fuel injected from each orifice of the injection valve, the fuel may flow to the wall surface of the intake branch pipe midway. It goes straight to the vicinity of the intake valve of the engine without collision. Therefore, it is possible to provide the fuel supply device and the supply method in which the lean air-fuel ratio due to the fuel supply delay in each cylinder is prevented and the air and the fuel in each cylinder are sufficiently mixed.

It is a wall surface in the middle of the intake branch pipes 4A, 4B, 4C on the upstream side of 5C. Since the intake branch pipes 4A and 4C at both ends are generally bent more than the central intake branch pipe 4B, the A position is on the upstream side by that much, and a long distance from this A position to the intake valve 7 of the engine 5 is provided. The fuel is sucked into the engine 5 while flowing along the wall surface. Therefore, it takes time until the injected fuel is taken into the engine 5. On the other hand, since the central intake branch pipe 4B has a relatively small bend, most of the fuel is sucked into the engine 5 without forming a wall flow. As a result, the intake branch pipes 4A, 4 at both ends are
The distribution characteristic of the fuel between C and the intake branch pipe 4B at the center is deteriorated, and the distribution characteristic is deteriorated particularly during transient operation.

According to the present invention, as described above, since the intake path extends linearly, the fuel injected from the fuel injection valve 6 diffuses without colliding with the wall surface of each intake branch pipe 4 on the way. However, since the engine 5 goes straight to the vicinity of the intake valve 7, the fuel distribution among the cylinders is substantially uniform.

FIG. 9 shows an example of the structure of an intake branch pipe when the present invention is applied to a four-cylinder engine. The four orifices provided in the fuel injection valve 6 are oriented so that the orientation of each orifice is opening. It is configured so as to face the parts 5A, 5B, 5C, and 5D. Because the intake path extends linearly,
As shown in the figure, the fuel injected from the fuel injection valve 6 travels straight to the vicinity of the intake valve 7 of the engine 5 while diffusing, without colliding with the wall surface of the intake branch pipe 4 on the way. In addition,
When the number of cylinders increases, the intake paths 5A, 5 located outside
Although it is difficult to make D completely linear to the intake port of the engine 5, it is possible to make the fuel distribution characteristics among the cylinders uniform by making it as linear as possible.

FIG. 10 shows another embodiment for providing the relationship between the intake passage and the injection valve arrangement of the present invention, in which the orifice 65 of the fuel injection valve 6 has a large cross-sectional area (compared to the front and rear intake passages). (2 times or more).
Since the flow velocity of the intake air decreases in the air reservoir 45, the influence of the intake air on the spray direction of the fuel injected from the fuel injection valve 6 is mitigated. That is, the orifice 6 can be used during low speed operation, high speed operation, or transient operation.
The directions of the sprays injected from 5 to 3 directions are not disturbed by the intake air flow, and are stably directed toward the intake port of the engine 5. Therefore, there are advantages that the sprays in the three directions are uniformly maintained, the responsiveness of the fuel supply is not hindered, and good drivability is always obtained.

FIG. 11 shows an example of the structure of the intake path without the air reservoir 45 and the injection valve shown for comparison with the present invention. The intake air is the fuel injected from the fuel injection valve 6. Influences the spray direction of. That is, during low speed operation with a small intake air amount Qa, the spray injected from the orifice 65 toward the intake port of the engine 5 (a)
However, during high-speed operation or transient operation in which the intake air amount Qb increases, it is pushed downward by the intake air flow and atomized (b).
As described above, the fuel is sucked into the engine 5 along the wall surface, which causes a fuel suction delay. Therefore, the A / F becomes transiently lean, and the response such as acceleration deteriorates. According to the intake passage of the present invention shown in FIG. 10, such a problem is alleviated by the action of the air reservoir 45.

FIG. 12 is a top view of another example of the intake passage and injection valve arrangement shown for comparison with the present invention.
Since the air is introduced from the direction (transverse direction) perpendicular to the jet planes in the three directions, it has a great influence on the atomization distribution. That is, the fuel injected into the intake branch pipe 4 is laterally pushed by the flow of air, and the fuel injected into the intake branch pipe 4A is most strongly affected by the inflow air. Therefore,
Since the characteristics of fuel distribution between cylinders deteriorate, it is necessary to set the injection direction and the size of the injection port in consideration of this.

FIG. 13 is a schematic configuration diagram of another embodiment of the present invention for solving the problem shown in FIG. In this embodiment, fuel is injected into the collector 3 arranged upstream of the intake branch pipe 4. The collector 3 has a function of a surge tank and is provided between the throttle body 2 and the intake branch pipe 4. In this case, the air exiting the throttle body 2 is introduced into the intake branch pipe 4 along the fuel injection planes in three directions in the collector 3 so as to be substantially parallel to the injection direction. Therefore, the influence of the inflowing air on the atomization distribution is small.

FIG. 14 is also a schematic diagram of another embodiment of the present invention, in which fuel is injected into the intake branch pipe 4 downstream of the collector 3. In this case, since the air whose velocity has decreased in the collector 3 is introduced into the intake branch pipe 4 from the direction perpendicular to the fuel injection planes in the three directions, the influence on the fuel atomization distribution is small.

Further, FIGS. 16 and 17 are also schematic configuration diagrams of another embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, the influence of the change in the air flow velocity due to the magnitude of the engine speed on the wall flow of fuel is reduced. That is, the three orifices 65 a, 65 b, 65 provided in the fuel injection valve 6
Of the orientations of c, the orientations of the orifices 65a and 65c at both ends are preliminarily set to be slightly outward from the center of the intake ports 5A and 5C of each cylinder of the engine 5. When the engine is operated at a low rotational speed, as shown in FIG. 16, the direction of the fuel injected from the orifices 65a and 65c of the fuel injection valve 6 is slightly outward, so that a slight wall flow is generated, but at a low speed. Since it is rotating, it does not affect A / F so much.

On the other hand, when the engine is accelerated or rotated at a high speed, as shown in FIG. 17, the injection direction of the fuel is pushed inward by the flow velocity of the intake air, and the wall flow is not generated. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the A / F from becoming lean due to the delay of the fuel supply, and maintain good acceleration performance. By adding such consideration, the difference in A / F between the cylinders can be reduced throughout the entire operating state including the transient operation.
