INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE COMPRISING A FUEL INJECTION NOZZLE WITH AN ADDITIONAL SUPPLY OF A COMBUSTION-PROMOTING MEDIUM INTO THE COMBUSTION CHAMBER

摘要

A reciprocating piston-type internal combustion engine includes a cylinder head that has an inlet valve that can be supplied with combustion air from a cylinder inlet line connected to the inlet valve, comprising a pressure accumulator, out of which an additional medium that promotes the combustion in the cylinder can be supplied to the cylinder in a controlled manner, and an injection nozzle, via which fuel can be injected into the cylinder. The additional medium is a combustion air/fuel mixture according to the invention. The pressure accumulator is connected to the injection nozzle which has a nozzle needle, and the additional medium can be introduced into the cylinder in a controlled manner by means of the injection nozzle.
