Patent ID: 8534262

Claim:
A fuel injection method for a diesel engine with fuel injection valves for injection of fuel into a combustion chamber, characterized in that it comprises injecting the fuel crosswise of the combustion chamber from the plural fuel injection valves arranged horizontally and diametrically oppositely of the combustion chamber in a plan view and arranged out of alignment axially of the combustion chamber, the fuel injected from the fuel injection valve close to a cylinder head colliding with the fuel injected from the fuel injection valve away from the cylinder head to rise along a slant on a piston with a rising gradient from a side adjacent to the fuel injection valve away from the cylinder head toward a side adjacent to the fuel injection valve close to the cylinder head up to diametrically halfway of the piston when the piston is in a vicinity of an upper dead center during a compression stroke, the fuel injected from the respective fuel injection valves advancing toward opposing wall portions in the combustion chamber when the piston is lowered by a predetermined amount during an expansion stroke.
