Abstract
In a reservoir-type fuel injection system, fuel can be supplied under pressure by a charge pump to two separate pressure reservoirs and the pressure reservoirs communicates via separate valve assemblies with injection nozzles via lines. By means of the separate reservoirs, overlapping of pre-injection and main injection events in different cylinders can be avoided.
Claims20
A reservoir-type fuel injection system having a high-pressure pump, which can be made to communicate with a first reservoir (6) and a second reservoir (7), each reservoir is provided with a wall (8, 9;
- 22, 23) that is movable relative to a restoring force (10, 11;
- 24) in each said reservoir, wherein the first reservoir (6) can be decoupled from the high-pressure pump (1) by a first one-way check valve (3) and the second reservoir (7) can be decoupled from this said high-pressure pump by a second one-way check valve (4), and wherein the first reservoir and the second reservoir can be made to communicate with a common injection nozzle via a first line (14) and a first, controlled valve (16) that communicates directly with said first reservoir and a second line (15) and a controlled valve (17) that communicates with said second reservoir, said second reservoir (7;
- 21, 23) is also connected to an outlet side of the first reservoir (6;
- 21, 22) via the second check valve (4);
- and the first reservoir (6;
- 21, 22) has a stroke limiting stop (12;
- 25) for said movable wall (8;
- 22) therein and said second reservoir (7;
- 21, 23) has an overflow opening (13;
- 26) controlled by said movable wall (9;
- 23) therein.
