Injection valve comprising an optimized surface geometry between a nozzle body and a retaining nut
View Patent ↗The injection valve has a housing, a nozzle body and a clamping nut connected to the housing that contacts the nozzle body with first contact surface ( 9 ) acting on a second contact surface ( 10 ), whereby the clamping nut clamps the nozzle body against the housing. The first or second contact surface has a curvature ( 24 ) towards the second or first contact surface and the both contact surfaces are in contact in the area of the curvature.
1. An injection valve comprising a housing, a nozzle body, and a clamping nut, said nut connected to said housing and resting with a first bearing surface on a second bearing surface of the nozzle body, and said nut clamping the nozzle body against the housing, wherein one of said bearing surfaces has a curvature in the direction of the other bearing surface, and said bearing surfaces bear against each other in the region of the curvature, wherein the nozzle body includes a pressure chamber arranged completely within the region of curvature in the axial direction.
2. An injection valve according to claim 1 , wherein the second or the first bearing surface has a conical surface.
3. An injection valve according to claim 1 , wherein the surface curvature comprises a convex surface.
4. An injection valve according to claim 1 , further comprising a bearing region wherein the curvature bears against a bearing surface arranged at a height position corresponding to the center of the pressure chamber.
5. An injection valve comprising:
a housing,
a nozzle body;
a clamping nut connected to the housing and resting with a first bearing surface on a second bearing surface of the nozzle body,
the clamping nut operable to clamp the nozzle body against the housing, the first or the second bearing surface has a curvature in the direction of the second or first bearing surface, and in that the first and the second bearing surfaces bear against each other in the region of the curvature with a prestressing force, wherein the nozzle body includes a pressure chamber arranged completely within the region of curvature in the axial direction such that the prestressing force passes through the pressure chamber.
6. An injection valve according to claim 5 , wherein the conical surface has, in cross section, an angle between 40° and 60° with respect to the central axis of the injection valve.
7. An injection valve according to claim 5 , wherein the second or the first bearing surface has a conical surface.
8. An injection valve according to claim 5 , wherein the surface curvature comprises a convex surface.
9. An injection valve according to claim 5 , further comprising a bearing region wherein the curvature bears against a bearing surface arranged at a height position corresponding to the center of the pressure chamber.
10. An injection value according to claim 5 , wherein the curvature has a radius in the range of from 20 to 60 mm in the plane of the central axis of the injection value.
11. An injection value according to claim 5 , wherein the curvature has a radius in the range of from 2 to 20 mm in the plan of the central axis of the injection value.
