METHOD FOR DETERMINING A POSITION OF A LOCK ELEMENT OF AN INJECTION VALVE FOR AN INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE

摘要

A method for determining a position of a lock element of an injection valve for an internal combustion engine includes moving the lock element in the direction of a locked position in a closing movement in order to lock the injection valve, subsequently measuring a closure time at which the lock element arrives in the locked position, determining a time difference between the closure time and a preceding starting time of the closing movement, and determining, based on the time difference, a position which the lock element has assumed at the starting time of the closing movement.
