Internal combustion engine plant especially for ship propulsion has fuel line with electronically controlled fuel valve, with each valve alternately pressurized by compressed air for opening depending on crankshaft position

摘要

The internal combustion engine plant has a pressure accumulator line (2) holding fuel at high pressure and from which branches a fuel line (4) to each cylinder (1). The fuel line accommodates an electronically controlled fuel valve (5), with each valve alternately pressurized by compressed air for opening. A compressed air valve controlled in dependence upon the position of the engine's crankshaft (13) is installed in a compressed air line (6) between a compressed air accumulator (8) and each fuel valve. An independent claim is included for a fuel valve for an internal combustion engine plant.
