Abstract
Twelve injection holes formed on an injection hole member are separated into two groups, each one of the two groups has six injection holes for forming a spray. Each injection hole is formed such that its injected fuel flow path center diverges from an injection center axis as fuel advances in an injection direction. Respective injected fuel flow path centers diverge from each other as fuel advances in the injection direction. Accordingly, fuel injected from the injection holes do not collide each other and form sprays. Thus, the spray is uniformly atomized, and a deviation of the spray direction is prevented.
Claims9
A fuel injection nozzle comprising:
- an injection hole member having a plurality of injection holes defining respective injected fuel flow path centers;
- and
- a valve member provided on a fuel inlet side of said injection hole member for enabling fuel to be intermittently injected through said injection holes, wherein;
- said fuel injected through said injection holes forms a spray;
- said injected fuel flow path centers diverge from an injection center axis as said fuel advances in an injection direction;
- and
- said injected fuel flow path centers diverge from each other as said fuel advances in said injection direction, wherein;
- intersections between respective extended lines of said injected fuel flow path centers and a hypothetical plane which is spaced apart from said injection hole member by a predetermined distance and which is perpendicular to said injection center axis are located on vertexes of a polygon.
A fuel injection nozzle comprising:
- an injection hole member having a plurality of injection holes defining respective injected fuel flow path centers;
- and
- a valve member provided on a fuel inlet side of said injection hole member for enabling fuel to be intermittently injected through said injection holes, wherein;
- said fuel injected through said injection holes forms a spray;
- said injected fuel flow path centers diverge from an injection center axis as said fuel advances in an injection direction;
- and
- said injected fuel flow path centers diverge from each other as said fuel advances in said injection direction, wherein;
- intersections between respective extended lines of said injected fuel flow path centers and a hypothetical plane which is spaced apart from said injection hole member by a predetermined distance and which is perpendicular to said injection center axis are located at approximately a same interval from each other.
A fuel injection nozzle comprising:
- an injection hole member having a plurality of injection holes defining respective injected fuel flow path centers;
- and
- a valve member provided on a fuel inlet side of said injection hole member for enabling fuel to be intermittently injected through said injection holes, wherein;
- said fuel injected through said injection holes forms a spray;
- said injected fuel flow path centers diverge from an injection center axis as said fuel advances in an injection direction;
- and
- said injected fuel flow path centers diverge from each other as said fuel advances in said injection direction, wherein;
- a thickness of said injection hole member divided by a diameter of each one of said injection holes is greater than 0.35 and less than 0.75.
A fuel injection nozzle comprising:
- an injection hole member having a plurality of pair of injection holes, each of said pair of injection holes are disposed relative to each other in a mirror-image-like manner;
- and
- a valve member for enabling fuel to be intermittently injected through said injection holes, wherein;
- an orifice angle formed by one of said pair of injection holes located closer to a center of said injection hole member than another pair of injection holes is smaller than that formed by said another pair of injection holes.
