An upper housing is provided between a fixed core and a housing opposite to a nozzle hole with respect to a coil. The upper housing is configured to form a magnetic circuit with the fixed core and the housing. The upper housing has a first tapered surface formed on an outer peripheral wall and a first cylindrical surface formed on an inner peripheral wall. The housing has a second tapered surface that radially faces the first tapered surface. The fixed core has a second cylindrical surface that radially faces the first cylindrical surface.

A method of making a fluid injector for a gas turbine engine includes depositing material onto a piece of tube stock. The method includes machining the deposited material into a fluid injector component. Depositing can include laser cladding the material onto the piece of tube stock. The method can include placing or flowing braze into a braze joint location between the deposited material and another fluid injector component and forming the braze into a braze joint in the braze joint location.

A valve for metering a fluid, including an electromagnetic actuator and a valve needle which is actuatable by an armature of the actuator and used to actuate a valve closing body which cooperates with a valve seat surface to form a seal seat. The armature is movably guided at the valve needle in the process. A stop element connected to the valve needle limits a relative movement between the armature and the valve needle in connection with an actuation of the valve needle. At least one elastically deformable spacer element is provided between the armature and the stop element, which, during the limitation of the relative movement between the armature and the valve needle at the stop element, encloses an attenuation space provided between a front face of the armature and a stop element surface of the stop element facing the front face of the armature.

A fuel injector for a fuel system in an internal combustion engine includes an injector housing, a direct-operated nozzle check movable within the injector housing, a check biasing spring within a spring chamber and biasing the nozzle check toward the closed position. The injector housing defines a damping control space, an always-open vent from the spring chamber to the damping control space, and a second vent from the spring chamber to the damping control space. The fuel injector further includes a hydraulically actuated damping adjustment valve movable responsive to a pressure of fuel supplied to the fuel injector between a higher damping position blocking the second vent, and a lower damping position where the second vent is open.

A fuel injector includes an injector body and a valve stack within the injector body that includes a valve seat plate. The valve seat plate includes a pressure control passage for controlling fuel injection, and a valve seat positioned fluidly between the pressure control passage and a low-pressure drain. The valve seat plate includes a pressure-limiting annular groove that extends circumferentially around the valve seat and axially inward from a side of the valve seat plate where the valve seat is located. The groove enables deformation in response to pressure differences across the valve seat plate in a manner that limits stress concentrations.

A fuel injection valve includes a valve body, a fixed core, a movable core, a spring and a cup. The movable core has a first core contact surface which contacts the valve body when the movable core is moved by a predetermined distance away from a nozzle hole, and a second core contact surface which contacts the cup when the movable core is moved away from the nozzle hole. The movable core, the cup and the valve body form a fuel storage chamber which is surrounded by the movable core, the cup and the valve body to accumulate fuel. The first core contact surface is located inside the fuel storage chamber. The first core contact surface and the second core contact surface have a communication groove through which the inside and the outside of the fuel storage chamber communicate with each other.

An electronically controlled fuel injection device that achieves reduced component count, simplified construction, and cost reduction while promoting discharge of vapor that is generated in a pressurizing chamber. With a fuel passage from a fuel intake pipe into a pressurizing chamber and a return passage that is a discharge passage for vapor generated in the pressurizing chamber, and a plunger with a prescribed reciprocating operation having a standby position set as a position enabling fuel supply and vapor discharge, the electronically controlled fuel injection device eliminates the need for an inlet check valve and promotes the discharge of vapor that is generated when fuel is supplied from the fuel intake pipe to the pressurizing chamber.

An electromagnetic positioning device includes an armature member for actuating a positioning partner and movable in an armature space relative to a stationary core (30). The armature member conducts magnetic flux upon energization of a stationary coil (32). The coil has a coil support with a winding and at least one external contactable connector (46) embedded at least in sections in the core and/or surrounded by the core. The core has an end surface (34), which is planar at least in sections, for interacting with the armature member. The core and the coil are embedded in and/or surrounded by a one-piece pot-like and/or cup-like housing (38) made of a material suitable for deep-drawing in such a manner that the core rests on a membrane-like, continuous and closed base section of the housing, the base section realizing a boundary surface of the armature space.

A fuel injection control device is applied to an internal combustion engine including a fuel injection valve and causes a valve body to be in a valve open state accompanying an energization of the fuel injection valve to inject fuel. The fuel injection control device acquires a dynamic parameter. The fuel injection control device acquires an injection amount parameter. The fuel injection control device calculates, based on the dynamic parameter, a dynamic correction value. The fuel injection control device calculates, based on the injection amount parameter, an injection amount correction value. The fuel injection control device corrects a fuel injection using the dynamic correction value and the injection amount correction value.
