Abstract
A fuel rail in a variable intake module is integrated, thereby obtaining a sufficient coupling area and excellent sealing between the variable intake module and intake manifold. The assembly of injector and variable intake module to an engine is improved. A high pressure fuel path is integrally formed at a lower inner side of the variable intake module, wherein the variable intake module includes a plurality of intake paths and a flap placed at each intake path to form a tumble. Furthermore, an injector insertion part is formed at a lower side of each intake path to communicate with the high pressure fuel path.
Claims2
A variable intake module of an engine, the module comprising:
- a high pressure fuel path integrally formed at a lower inner side of a variable intake module, wherein said variable intake module includes a plurality of intake paths and a flap placed at each said intake path to form a tumbling of air and fuel within a combustion chamber;
- and
- an injector insertion part formed at a lower side of each said intake path to communicate with said high pressure fuel path;
- wherein said variable intake module of the engine further comprises:
- a fuel pressure sensor connected with said high pressure fuel path to measure the pressure inside said high pressure fuel path;
- and
- a high pressure regulator connected with said high pressure fuel path to adjust the pressure inside said high pressure fuel path to a feasible level
- wherein said variable intake module is integrally formed with a return path for allowing said high pressure regulator to discharge excessive fuel.
A variable intake module, comprising:
- a variable intake module defining, at a lower inner side thereof, a high pressure fuel path, and wherein said variable intake module further defines a plurality of intake paths;
- at least one flap positioned with respect to each said intake path wherein said at least one flap is configured and dimensioned to generate a tumble of fuel mixture within a cylinder;
- and
- an injector insertion component positioned at a lower side of each said intake path, said injector insertion component being configured and dimensioned to communicate with said high pressure fuel path;
- further comprising:
- a fuel pressure sensor in communication with said high pressure fuel path to measure pressure inside said high pressure fuel path;
- and
- a high pressure regulator coupled with said high pressure fuel path to adjust pressure inside said high pressure fuel path,
- wherein said variable intake module further defines a return path into which said high pressure regulator can discharge excessive fuel.
