A reductant dosing unit is disclosed, including a fluid injector having a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet. A flange is disposed proximal to the fluid outlet of the fluid injector and configured to secure to a boss associated with an exhaust path of an internal combustion engine. The flange has a largely flat body portion with a through-bore in fluid communication with the fluid outlet of the fluid injector. The flange further includes an extension which extends from the body portion toward the fluid injector and which is connected to thereto. A thermal isolator is disposed between the fluid outlet of the fluid injector and the flange. The connection between the extension of the flange and the fluid injector includes a hermetic seal, preventing exhaust gases in the exhaust path from passing between the flange extension and the fluid injector. The thermal isolator is only used as a support and thermal isolator.

A cooling device configured to cool, using a coolant, an injection valve that injects an additive includes a rotary member surrounding an outer periphery of the injection valve and extending along the injection valve. The rotary member is supported to be rotatable around the injection valve. A clearance between an outer peripheral surface of the injection valve and an inner peripheral surface of the rotary member defines a passage through which the coolant flows. The rotary member has a rotation imparting part that causes the rotary member to rotate about the injection valve in response to a flow of the coolant.

An injection valve is provided in a cooling device. An outer jacket is provided at an outside of the injection valve. A cylindrical partitioning unit divides an annular space into an outside passage on a side of the outer jacket and an inside passage on a side of the injection valve. A second pipe portion supplies cooling water into the annular space and a first pipe portion discharges the cooling water from the annular space. A first restricting portion is provided between the first pipe portion and the second pipe portion and it restricts a flow of the cooling water in the outside passage from a part on a side of the second pipe portion to a part on a side of the first pipe portion. A second restricting portion is provided at a position on a side of the first pipe portion opposite to an injection port. The second restricting portion restricts the flow of the cooling water between the outside and the inside passages. A communication passage is formed in the cylindrical partitioning unit at a position above the first restricting portion and it communicates the outside and the inside passages to each other.

The present disclosure provides a reductant injection system for an SCR catalyst of an internal combustion engine, the reductant injection system comprising at least one injector, a first storage container for storing liquid reductant and a pump for pumping reductant from the first storage container to the injector for injection into an exhaust gas stream, wherein the injector is cooled by reductant. The reductant injection system may comprise a second storage container for storing liquid reductant and is configured such that the injector can be cooled by reductant from the second storage container.

An injector for injecting a reagent includes a first injector body defining a first end and a second end. The first injector body further includes an outlet opening disposed proximal to the second end. The injector further includes a valve assembly at least partly enclosed by the first injector body. The valve assembly is configured to selectively dispense the reagent through the outlet opening of the first injector body. The injector further includes a cover member coupled to the first injector body and adapted to at least partially cover the second end of the first injector body. The cover member includes an integral flange portion for mounting the injector on a component.

The invention relates to an injector assembly for metering a fluid, in particular a reductant, into an exhaust line (9) of an internal combustion engine, comprising an injector (2), a housing (3) which surrounds the injector (2), a first opening (5) which is provided on the housing (3) in order to allow access for a fluid connection (4) in order to supply the fluid to the injector (2), a second opening (6) which is provided on the housing (3), and an electric connection assembly (7) which is arranged in the housing (3) and which is led from an electric connection (20) of the injector to the second opening (6). The electric connection assembly (7) comprises a line portion (70) and a plug socket (71), and the plug socket (71) is arranged in the housing (3) in a sealed manner on the second opening (6).

An injector for injecting a reagent includes a first injector body and a second injector body. The first injector body includes an outlet opening. The second injector body includes a reagent tube. The second injector body is movable relative to the first injector body. The injector further includes a valve assembly at least partly enclosed by the first injector body. The valve assembly is configured to selectively dispense the reagent through the outlet opening of the first injector body. The injector further includes a spring member positioned between the first injector body and the second injector body. The spring member is pre-loaded to bias the second injector body towards the first injector body. The spring member is further configured to limit a maximum movement of the second injector body relative to the first injector body in response to expansion of the reagent during freezing.

A dosing lance assembly for an exhaust component includes a housing and a delivery conduit. The housing includes a plate, an endcap, and a pipe. The plate has a first channel. The endcap has a second channel. The pipe has a first end coupled to the plate and a second end coupled to the endcap. The delivery conduit has a first end coupled to the plate and a second end coupled to the endcap, such that reductant is flowable from the first channel to the second channel. When the housing is at an ambient temperature, (i) a length of the delivery conduit is greater than (ii) a first distance between a location at which the first end of the pipe is coupled to the plate and a location at which the second end of the pipe is coupled to the endcap.

An exhaust gas purification device for a ship including: a main path communicated with outside and a bypass path branching off from a midway portion of the main path, each of the paths serving as an exhaust gas path of an engine to be mounted in the ship. A partition plate, by which the main and bypass paths are partitioned from the upstream side to the downstream side in an exhaust gas traveling direction, extends along the exhaust gas traveling direction. The partition plate has a downstream end extended through between an exhaust gas outflow port of the purification casing and an exhaust gas outlet of the main path, and the downstream end is formed with an opening to serve as a reverse-flow prevention plate.

A cooling device for an additive injection valve is connected to a circulation circuit for coolant in parallel with a different cooling device. The cooling device includes a coolant path through which the coolant flows, and a movable member that receives a flow of the coolant and shifts to vary a passage area of a predetermined portion of the coolant path.
