Abstract

The invention relates to a dynamic seal for a fuel injector needle check. A fuel injector includes an injector body defining a liquid fuel passage, a gaseous fuel passage, and a first guide bore; a gaseous fuel check guided within the first guide bore between a retracted position and an advanced position to selectively open and block, respectively, fluid communication between the gaseous fuel passage and a gaseous fuel nozzle outlet; and a sleeve seal seated within the first guide bore, the sleeve seal having an inner surface defining a sleeve seal bore therethrough, and at least a portion of the gaseous fuel check is disposed within the sleeve seal bore; an outer surface of the sleeve seal including a first portion and a second portion, the first portion being disposed closer to a longitudinal axis of the sleeve seal bore along a radial direction than the second portion.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to a fluid injector, and more particularly to a sleeve seal for a fuel injector. Background technique [0002] Reciprocating internal combustion (IC) engines are known for converting chemical energy stored within a fuel supply into mechanical shaft power. A fuel-oxidizer mixture is received within a variable volume of an IC engine defined by a piston translating within a cylinder bore. The fuel-oxidizer mixture is combusted in a variable volume to convert chemical energy from the mixture into heat. In turn, the expansion of the products of combustion within the variable volume performs work on the piston which can be transferred to the output shaft of the IC engine. [0003] In a conventional direct injection compression ignition engine, most, if not all, of the fuel is injected into the variable volume with a short ignition delay time before the desired ignition timing. In other compression ignition engines, ...
