Fuel rail device

Description

[0001] The invention relates to a fuel rail device of a combustion engine. Furthermore, the invention relates to a fuel rail fuel injector assembly, comprising a coupling assembly for hydraulically and mechanically coupling a fuel injector to a fuel rail of a combustion engine.

[0002] Fuel rail devices and coupling assemblies for hydraulically and mechanically coupling a fuel injector to a fuel rail are in widespread use, in particular for internal combustion engines. Fuel can be supplied to an internal combustion engine by the fuel rail device and the coupling assembly through the fuel injector.

[0003] In order to keep pressure fluctuations during the operation of the internal combustion engine at a very low level, internal combustion engines are supplied with a fuel accumulator to which the fuel injectors are connected and which has a relatively large volume. Such a fuel accumulator is often referred to as a fuel rail. The fuel injectors can be coupled to the fuel rail in different manners.

[0004] Known fuel rails comprise a hollow body with recesses in form of fuel injector cups, wherein the fuel injectors are arranged. The connection of the fuel injectors to the fuel injector cups that supply the fuel from a fuel tank via a low or high-pressure fuel pump needs to be very precise to get a correct injection angle and a sealing of the fuel.

[0005] The object of the invention is to create a fuel rail device and a coupling assembly for hydraulically and mechanically coupling a fuel injector to a fuel rail which are simply to be manufactured and which facilitate a reliable and precise connection between the fuel rail and the fuel injector without a resting of the fuel injector on the cylinder head of the combustion engine.

[0006] The objects are achieved by the features of the independent claim. Advantageous embodiments of the invention are given in the sub-claims.

[0007] According to a first aspect the invention is distinguished by a fuel rail device of a combustion engine. The fuel rail device comprises a fuel rail and a union having a longitudinal axis. The union is fixedly coupled to the fuel rail and is in hydraulic communication with the fuel rail. Furthermore, the fuel rail device comprises a pipe which is partially engaged by the union and is designed to be in hydraulic communication with a fuel injector. The fuel rail device comprises a sealing ring. The sealing ring is arranged coaxially to the pipe and is arranged radially between the union and the pipe and is designed to sealingly couple the union to the pipe.

[0008] This has the advantage that a secure and reliable coupling between the fuel rail and the pipe connected with the fuel injector is possible. Furthermore, a good sealing between the fuel rail and the pipe connected with the fuel injector can be obtained. Additionally, a compensation of mechanical stress of the coupling between the fuel rail and the pipe is possible.

[0009] The pipe has an outer surface comprising a groove. The groove faces the union, and the sealing ring s partially arranged in the groove. By this a reliable fixing of the sealing ring relative to the pipe in particular in axial direction is possible.

[0010] The pipe comprises a tube and a ring holder element which is arranged coaxially to the tube. The ring holder element is fixedly coupled to the tube. The ring holder element comprises the groove. This has the advantage that a very secure fixing of the sealing ring relative to the pipe possible.

[0011] A part of the ring holder element extends in axial direction from an axial end of the tube facing the fuel rail in a manner that the ring holder element covers at least partially the axial end of the tube. This has the advantage that the ring holder element can protect the axial end of the tube facing the fuel rail against mechanical stress or damage.

[0012] In an advantageous embodiment the ring holder element is welded or brazed to the tube. This has the advantage that a secure fixing of the ring holder element relative to the tube is possible.

[0013] In a further advantageous embodiment the union is welded or brazed to the fuel rail. This has the advantage that a secure fixing of the union relative to the fuel rail is possible.

[0014] In a further advantageous embodiment the pipe comprises a flange and a clip element is arranged coaxially to the pipe. The clip element is in engagement with the union and the flange to prevent an axial movement of the pipe relative to the union. This has the advantage that a detaching of the pipe from the union can be prevented in particular during the handling of the fuel rail device, for example during a mounting or demounting step.

[0015] According to a second aspect the invention is distinguished by a fuel rail fuel injector assembly with a fuel rail device according to the first aspect of the invention and a coupling assembly. The fuel rail device is mechanically and hydraulically coupled to the coupling assembly.

[0016] The coupling assembly comprises a fuel injector with a fuel injector body and a central longitudinal axis. The fuel injector body comprises a partially cone-shaped cavity. The coupling assembly comprises a fuel pipe which is hydraulically coupable to the fuel rail and a cup-shaped coupling element. The cup-shaped coupling element is in engagement with the fuel injector body to retain the fuel pipe in the fuel injector in direction of the central longitudinal axis. The fuel pipe has a rounded end section which is at least partially arranged in the partially cone-shaped cavity and is in direct contact with the fuel injector body.

[0017] The advantage of this coupling assembly is that the fuel pipe is flexible relative to the injector body. Furthermore, a compensation of mechanical stress is possible. In particular, it is easy possible that the end section is limited pivotable relative to the fuel injector body. Furthermore, the coupling assembly allows an assembly of the fuel injector and the fuel rail without a further metallic contact between the fuel injector and further parts of the combustion engine. Consequently, a noise transmission between the fuel injector and further parts of the combustion engine can be kept small.

[0018] In an advantageous embodiment according to the second aspect of the invention the fuel injector body comprises an outer screw thread and the cup-shaped coupling element comprises an inner screw thread which is in engagement with the outer screw thread of the fuel injector body. This has the advantage that a simple, fast and secure screw coupling between the fuel tube and the fuel injector is possible.

[0019] In a further advantageous embodiment according to the second aspect of the invention a clamp element is fixedly coupled to a cylinder head of the combustion engine and comprises an aperture being designed to engage the fuel pipe to enable a mechanical cooperation between the fuel pipe and the cylinder head. This has the advantage that the forces on the fuel pipe can be absorbed at least partially by the clamp element. Furthermore, as the fuel pipe can move in the aperture in axial direction the fuel pipe can limitedly move in axial direction relative to the cylinder head.

[0020] Exemplary embodiments of the invention are explained in the following with the aid of schematic drawings. These are as follows:

[0021] Elements of the same design and function that occur in different illustrations are identified by the same reference character.

[0022] A fuel feed device 10 is assigned to an internal combustion engine 22 (figure 1) which can be a diesel engine or a gasoline engine. It includes a fuel tank 12 that is connected via a first fuel line to a fuel pump 14. The output of the fuel pump 14 is connected to a fuel inlet 16 of a fuel rail 18. In the fuel rail 18, the fuel is stored for example under a pressure of about 200 bar in the case of a gasoline engine or of about 2,000 bar in the case of a diesel engine. Fuel injectors 20 are connected to the fuel rail 18 and the fuel is fed to the fuel injectors 20 via the fuel rail 18.

[0023] Figure 2 shows a configuration of a fuel rail device 60 which comprises the fuel rail 18 and a fuel pipe 24. The pipe 24 may be in hydraulic communication with the fuel injector 20. The pipe 24 comprises a tube 26 and a ring holder element 28 which is arranged coaxially to the tube 26 and which is fixedly coupled to the tube 26. Preferably, the ring holder element 28 is welded or brazed to the tube 26.

[0024] The pipe 24 has an outer surface 30 which comprises a groove 32. The groove 32 faces a union 34 which is fixedly coupled to the fuel rail 18. Preferably, the union 34 is welded or brazed to the fuel rail 18. The union 34 is shaped as a hollow cylinder with a longitudinal axis L1 and makes a hydraulic communication with the fuel rail 18 possible. The union 34 receives a part of the pipe 24.

[0025] The fuel rail device 60 has a sealing ring 38 which is arranged in the groove 32 in radial direction between the fuel pipe 24 and the union 34. The sealing ring 38 has an outer surface 40. The outer surface 40 of the sealing ring 38 is in sealing contact with the outer surface 30 of the fuel pipe 24. By this a good sealing between the fuel pipe 24 and the union 34 can be obtained and mechanical stress on the pipe 24 can be avoided.

[0026] The fuel rail device 60 has a supporting ring 42 which is arranged in the groove 32 in radial direction between the fuel pipe 24 and the union 34. The sealing ring 38 is supported by the supporting ring 42 to avoid an axial movement of the sealing ring 38 relative to the pipe 24.

[0027] The pipe 24, preferably the ring holder element 28 has a flange 44 extending in radial direction from the tube 26. Coaxially to the pipe 24 a clip element 46 is arranged. The clip element 46 is engaged with the union 34 and the flange 44. By this an axial movement of the pipe 24 relative to the union 34 can be limited in a manner that a sealing contact of the sealing ring 38 with the union 34 and the pipe 24 can be attained. Consequently, the pipe 24 can not detach from the union 34 during a handling of the fuel rail device 60.

[0028] Figure 3 shows an embodiment of the fuel rail device 60 in which a part 49 of the ring holder element 28 extends in axial direction from an axial end 48 of the tube 26 which faces the fuel rail 18. In this embodiment the part 49 of the ring holder element 28 is shaped as a collar which covers or overlaps the axial end 48 of the tube 26 in axial direction. This makes it possible that the collar-shaped part 49 protects the axial end 48 of the tube 26 against mechanical damage.

[0029] Figure 4 shows a configuration of the fuel rail device 60 wherein the pipe 24 has a corrugated section 50. The corrugated section 50 of the pipe 24 comprises at least the flange 44 and the groove 32 which may receive the sealing ring 38 and the supporting ring 42. The corrugated section 50 is preferably produced by stamping, cold-forming or hot-forming the pipe 24. In this case, the ring holder element 28 can be left and a low mass and a low weight of the pipe 24 can be obtained. This configuration, however, does not fall within the scope of the appended claims.

[0030] Figure 5 shows a configuration of the fuel rail device 60 wherein the union 34 comprises an inner surface 52. In the inner surface 52 a union groove 54 is arranged which faces the tube 26. A circlip 56 is arranged in the union groove 54. The circlip 56 is in mechanical cooperation with the sealing ring 38 and the supporting ring 42. The circlip 56 supports the sealing ring 38 and consequently prevents an axial movement of the sealing ring 38 relative to the union 34. This makes a secure sealing between the tube 26 and the union 34 possible.

[0031] Figure 6 shows a coupling assembly 90 with the fuel injector 20 in detail. The coupling assembly 90 may be coupled to the fuel rail 18 of the internal combustion engine 22. The coupling assembly 90 comprises the fuel pipe 24 and the fuel injector 20 with a fuel injector body 62 and a central longitudinal axis L2. The fuel injector body 62 has a cavity 64 which is partially cone-shaped.

[0032] The pipe 24 has an outer surface 68 and is hydraulically coupled to the fuel rail 18 at a first end which is for example the axial end 48 in Figures 2 to 5. At a second end the pipe 24 comprises a spherical or rounded end section 66. The end section 66 of the pipe 24 is in partial engagement with the partially cone-shaped cavity 64 of the fuel injector body 62. Therefore, a direct metal-to-metal contact between the pipe 24 and the fuel injector body 62 can be obtained. A sealing element can be avoided. The end section 66 is slightly pivotable relative to the fuel injector body 62. Consequently, the pipe 24 is flexible relative to the injector body 62 and mechanical stress on the pipe 24 can be avoided.

[0033] The coupling assembly 90 has a cup-shaped coupling element 70 which is in engagement with the fuel injector body 62 to retain the fuel pipe 24 in the fuel injector 20 in direction of the central longitudinal axis L2. The coupling element 70 is formed as a ring element and has a centrally arranged through hole 72 and a screw thread 74 which is a female screw thread. Thus, the coupling element 70 is formed as a nut.

[0034] The fuel injector body 62 has a screw thread 76 which is a male screw thread. The fuel injector body 62 and the coupling element 70 are fixedly coupled with each other by the screw threads 74, 76.

[0035] As the fuel injector body 62 is in engagement with the fuel pipe 24, and the coupling element 70 is fixedly coupled to the fuel injector body 62 by the screw threads 74, 76, the fuel pipe 24 is retained in the fuel injector 20 in direction of the central longitudinal axis L2.

[0036] A clamp element 78 is coupled to a cylinder head 84 of the combustion engine 22. The clamp element 78 has a protrusion which extends in radial direction relative to the longitudinal axis L2 of the fuel injector body 62. The protrusion has an orifice which is designed to take in a fixing element 80. The fixing element 80 is designed to rigidly couple the clamp element 78 to the cylinder head 84. The fixing element 80 is preferably a screw but it may also be of another type as a pin or a bolt as long as it enables a fixed coupling of the fuel injector body 62 to the cylinder head 84.

[0037] The clamp element 78 has an aperture 82 which may receive the pipe 24 to enable a mechanical cooperation between the pipe 24 and the cylinder head 84. The pipe 24 can limitedly move in the aperture 82 in axial direction relative to the cylinder head 84 to avoid mechanical stress on the pipe 24.

[0038] Between the fuel injector body 62 and the cylinder head 54 a distance element 88 is arranged that may give a fixed distance between the fuel injector body 62 and the cylinder head 84 and receive the fixing element 80.
