Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A vibration damping system for injection systems of motor vehicles includes an actively controllable actuator element, which is situated at a component of the injection system. The actuator element is situated at the component in such a way that, during operation of the injection system a vibration reduction of the injection system is achieved with the aid of an active control of the actuator element.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A vibration damping system for an injection system of a motor vehicle, comprising: at least one actively controllable actuator element which is situated at a component of the injection system, the actuator element being situated at the component in such a way that, during operation of the injection system, a vibration reduction of the injection system is achieved using an active control of the actuator element, wherein the actively controllable actuator element is situated between a connecting piece of a fluid-conducting component of the fuel injection system and a connector of a metering valve. 2. The vibration damping system as recited in claim 1 , further comprising: a control unit configured to, during operation of the injection system, actively control the actuator element, the control unit configured in such a way that, during operation of the injection system, the vibration reduction of the injection system is achieved using the active control of the actuator element, which enables a damping of a sound emission of the injection system and/or a reduction of at least one vibration load of the injection system. 3. The vibration damping system as recited in claim 2 , further comprising: an injection control unit for the injection system, the injection control unit configured to control at least one metering valve of the injection system and/or to detect at least one operating variable of the injection system, the control unit being integrated into the injection control unit, and is configured to controls the actuator element as a function of the control of the metering valve and/or the operating variable of the injection system. 4. The vibration damping system as recited in claim 1 , wherein the connector of the metering valve is suspended on the connecting piece of the fluid-conducting component using the actively controllable actuator element. 5. The vibration damping system as recited in claim 1 , wherein an additional actively controllable actuator element is situated freely at an outer side of a fluid-conducting component of the fuel injection system. 6. The vibration damping system as recited in claim 1 , wherein an additional actively controllable actuator element is supported at an outer side of a fluid-conducting component of the fuel injection system and/or at or in a holder of the injection system. 7. The vibration damping system as recited in claim 6 , wherein the additional actively controllable actuator element is supported at the holder which is connected to a fixed bearing, or at a fixed bearing. 8. The vibration damping system as recited in claim 1 , wherein the fluid-conducting component is a fluid distributor which is configured to store and/or distribute fluid among multiple metering valves. 9. An injection system for mixture-compressing, spark ignition internal combustion engines, the system comprising: at least one fluid-conducting component; at least one component configured as a metering valve; and a vibration damping system including at least one actively controllable actuator element which is situated at a component of the injection system, the actuator element being situated at the component in such a way that, during operation of the injection system, a vibration reduction of the injection system is achieved using an active control of the actuator element, wherein the actively controllable actuator element is situated between a connecting piece of a fluid-conducting component of the fuel injection system and a connector of a metering valve.
