Fuel distributor
A fuel distributor features a pressure accumulator 2 with a longitudinal hollow space 3 to receive pressurized fuel. The pressure accumulator 2 possesses at least one threaded socket 7 which connects with the longitudinal hollow space 3 and which features interior threading 8 , and into which a threading cap 11 with exterior threading 13 is inserted. The threading socket 7 features a sealing surface 16 , which ends up being pressed onto a sealing seat 18 set up inside the pressure accumulator 2 . According to the invention, a leakage channel 27 is formed within the threading cap 11 . The configuration of the fuel distributor according to the invention with the leakage channel 27 in the threading socket 7 allows leakage testing under high pressure to be carried out during a short cycle or detection times, and with a high degree of precision.
1. A fuel distributor, which features a pressure accumulator with a longitudinal hollow space to receive pressurized fuel, where the pressure accumulator possesses at least one threading socket featuring interior threading connected to the longitudinal hollow space, and where a threading cap is inserted into the threading socket, which itself features external threading, where the threading cap features a sealing surface, which ends up being pressed onto a sealing seat set up in the pressure accumulator, wherein the threading cap has a leakage channel formed by a cross bore in a cylindrical section which is connected to a recess.
2. The fuel distributor according to claim 1 , wherein the threading cap has the cylindrical section with a conical end section, on which the sealing surface is formed.
3. The fuel distributor according to claim 1 , wherein the threading cap has a recess with an interior polyhedral surface.
4. The fuel distributor according to claim 1 , wherein the leakage channel is formed by an exposed space provided on the exterior circumference of the cylindrical section and an interior circumference section of the pressure reservoir.
5. The fuel distributor according to claim 1 , wherein the threading socket is a single-piece component of the pressure accumulator and being made of a uniform single material.
6. The fuel distributor according to claim 1 , wherein the threading cap is cold-flow pressed.
7. The fuel distributor according to claim 1 , wherein the sealing seat is formed in a sealing cone of the pressure accumulator.
8. The fuel distributor according to claim 1 , wherein the threading socket is formed on an opening-side end of the pressure accumulator.
9. The fuel distributor according to claim 1 , wherein the threading socket is configured to receive a sensor.
