  • the present invention relates to an injection nozzle for use in a fuel injection system for an internal combustion engine. It relates particularly, but not exclusively, to an injection nozzle for use in a common rail fuel injection system for an internal combustion engine.
  • Each injector includes an injection nozzle having a valve needle which is operated by means of an actuator to move towards and away from a valve seating so as to control fuel delivery by the injector.
  • FIG. 1 is a part-perspective view of a conventional injection nozzle.
  • the injection nozzle 10 comprises a nozzle body 12 and a valve needle 14.
  • the valve needle 14 is shown in perspective and the nozzle body 12 is shown in cross-section.
  • the nozzle body 12 is provided with a blind bore 16 within which the valve needle 14 is movable to engage with, and disengage from, a valve needle seating 18 defined by the blind end of the bore 16.
  • the nozzle body 12 also includes a set of nozzle outlets 20 through which fuel can be injected into the associated engine cylinder or combustion space, in circumstances in which the valve needle 14 is lifted from its seating 18.
  • the blind end of the bore 16 defines a sac volume 22 with which inlet ends of the nozzle outlets 20 communicate.
  • the valve needle 14 has a generally circular cross-section along it's primary axis, and is divided into a plurality of regions which are shaped so as to optimise the flow of fuel from the injection nozzle 10 to the associated engine cylinder.
  • the valve needle 14 comprises a guide region 24 for guiding the valve needle 14 as it moves within the nozzle body 12.
  • the guide region 24 is formed from a generally cylindrical region into which there are machined a plurality of flat portions 24a.
  • Figure 2 is a sectional view of the injection nozzle of Figure 1 along the line B-B.
  • the guide region 24 comprises three flat portions 24a. Each of the flat portions 24a, are separated by a corresponding guide portion 24b in the circumferential direction of the guide region 24.
  • each of the guide portions 24b is sized so as to be a close clearance fit with the surface of the bore 16, i.e. typically -0.015mm. Accordingly, the proximity of each guide portion 24b to the surface of the bore 16 ensures the movement of the valve needle 14 toward and away from the valve seating 18 is co-axial with the primary axis of the bore 16, labelled A-A in Figure 1.
  • Each flat portion 24a of the guide region 24 defines a corresponding relieved region 26 between the surface of the guide region 24 and the adjacent surface of the bore 16.
  • the purpose of the flat portions 24a is to allow sufficient fuel to flow from an upper inlet end of the injection nozzle 10, past the guide region 24, and toward the valve seating 18 disposed at the lower end of the injection nozzle 10.
  • an injection nozzle for a compression-ignition internal combustion engine comprising: a nozzle body provided with a bore within which a valve needle is movable along a primary valve needle axis, the valve needle being engageable with a valve seating defined by the bore to control fuel delivery through a nozzle outlet; the bore comprising first and second regions, the second bore region having a smaller diameter than the first bore region, and a transition between the first and second bore regions; the valve needle including a guide region for guiding the movement of the valve needle within the nozzle body, the guide region comprising a shoulder portion and a relieved region disposed downstream of the shoulder portion; the relieved region comprising a first flat portion and a first tapered portion, disposed between the first flat portion and the shoulder portion, wherein the radius of the valve needle increases across the first tapered portion in the upstream direction; and wherein, when the valve needle is in a zero lift state, the shoulder portion is disposed adjacent to the transition so as to define
  • the accurate control of the injection of a small amount of fuel is possible at low needle lifts, since the restriction between the shoulder portion and the transition prevents excessive fuel from flowing through the nozzle.
  • the restriction enables more accurate valve needle control, by causing a reduction in the fuel pressure downstream of the restriction at low needle lifts, and a corresponding reduction in the opening force exerted on the valve needle, thereby providing a damping effect which reduces the speed at which the valve needle lifts.
  • the tapered portion ensures that there is a smooth, gradual transition between the narrow restriction at low needle lifts and the full flow at high needle lifts.
  • the first flat portion is adjacent to the transition between the first and second bore regions when the valve needle is in a full lift state. Accordingly, when the valve needle is in the full lift state, the restriction to the flow of fuel between the first flat portion and the transition is less than the restriction defined between the transition and the shoulder portion. Thus, when the valve needle is at full lift the restriction to the flow of fuel is reduced such that the efficiency of the injection nozzle is not compromised at higher pressures and higher flows.
  • the first tapered portion is adjacent to the transition between the first and second bore regions when the valve needle is between a zero lift state and a full lift state.
