Abstract
Abstract A fuel injection nozzle for preliminary and primary fuel injection, wherein the preliminary injection of fuel is effected by temporarily relieving the feed or delivery pressure. Control is accomplished by means of a control slide valve preferably arranged around the valve needle, at least a portion of the preliminary injection quantity being displaced by way of this control slide valve.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 12
Claim 1
Independent Claim
151 words
Fuel injection nozzle for preliminary injection and primary injection in internal combustion engines, which comprises a valve body, a valve needle in said valve body, a control slide valve in said valve body surrounding said valve needle coaxial therewith and displaceable against the force of a spring by fuel fed under pressure, a duct in said valve body, said control slide valve arranged to displace, during the first segment of the feeding step, a preliminary injection quantity, and also to open up said duct after continuation of the stroke, to terminate the preliminary injection step, said control slide valve and a control surface on said valve needle are exposed to the fuel independently of each other, further wherein said duct comprises a relief duct which leads to a space in said valve body with at least intermittently lower pressure so that a temporary relief of the fuel injection pressure is effected.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
151 words
Fuel injection nozzle for preliminary injection and primary injection in internal combustion engines, which comprises a valve body, a valve needle in said valve body, a control slide valve in said valve body surrounding said valve needle coaxial therewith and displaceable against the force of a spring by fuel fed under pressure, a duct in said valve body, said control slide valve arranged to displace, during the first segment of the feeding step, a preliminary injection quantity, and also to open up said duct after continuation of the stroke, to terminate the preliminary injection step, said control slide valve and a control surface on said valve needle are exposed to the fuel independently of each other, further wherein said duct comprises a relief duct which leads to a space in said valve body with at least intermittently lower pressure so that a temporary relief of the fuel injection pressure is effected.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
17 words
Fuel injection nozzle according to claim 1, further wherein said relief duct terminates in a storage means.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
20 words
Fuel injection nozzle according to claim 2, further wherein a cavity within said storage means serves as the storage means.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
29 words
Fuel injection nozzle according to claim 3, further wherein said relief duct communicates with an annular groove in said control slide valve and valving means in said storage means.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
30 words
Fuel injection nozzle according to claim 2, further wherein said control slide valve includes an annular groove which communicates with a throttle duct and valving means in said storage means.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
27 words
Fuel injection nozzle according to claim 1, further wherein said control slide valve is of an annular shape and is arranged coaxially relative to said valve needle.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
29 words
Fuel injection nozzle according to claim 1, further wherein said valve needle includes an enlarged section that is preferably the same diameter as that of the control slide valve.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
45 words
Fuel injection nozzle according to claim 1, further wherein said control surface on said valve needle is effective in the opening direction of said valve needle and said control surface is further arranged in opposition to an upper surface area of said control slide valve.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
53 words
Fuel injection nozzle according to claim 8, further wherein a fuel passage with a throttle is provided between said valve needle and said control slide valve, and said throttle is further inactivated at least after termination of the oppositely directed movement of said valve needle and said slide valve during the injection step.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
33 words
Fuel injection nozzle according to claim 9, further wherein at least said valve needle and/or an oppositely disposed internal bore provided in said slide valve include differing diameters for controlling said fuel passage.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim
18 words
Fuel injection nozzle according to claim 1, further wherein a space downstream of said slide valve is depressurized.
