Fuel injection device

A fuel injection device is used in an internal combustion engine having a combustion chamber partitioned by a cylinder head, a cylinder, and a piston crown surface so that at least one of the amount of NOx, Pmax, and a thermal efficiency is maintained at a predetermined value. The fuel injection device includes a fuel injection change unit. The fuel injection change unit virtually divides the combustion chamber into N number of combustion zones where N is a natural number of 2 or more, and can change a fuel injection method according to the respective combustion zones. The fuel injection change unit divides the combustion chamber into the N number of combustion zones, thereby being capable of eliminating a difference of heat in the respective combustion zones, and precisely controlling an in-cylinder pressure P in the combustion chamber. As a result, the amount of NOx and the thermal efficiency can be optimized. Therefore, both of a reduction in the amount of NOx and the high thermal efficiency can be achieved.

A centrifugal conical-spray atomization device. A head portion of a needle valve is provided with a throttling guidance cone. A seat surface of the needle valve mates with seat surface of a spin chamber to open and close a spray hole in a pulsatory manner. A plurality of tangential holes are provided between a pressure chamber and a spin chamber. After being spun tangentially by the spin chamber, fuel is sprayed from a spray opening with a tangential force, forming a hollow umbrella-like fuel film without a compact fuel spray core. The umbrella-like fuel film has a controllable penetration distance and spins at a high speed in a combustion chamber. The centrifugal conical-spray atomization device not only exhibits a wide adjustable range of fuel flow, but is able to automatically open and close the spray hole, while carbon deposition would not easily form to block the spray hole.
