A cooling device configured to cool, using a coolant, an injection valve that injects an additive includes a rotary member surrounding an outer periphery of the injection valve and extending along the injection valve. The rotary member is supported to be rotatable around the injection valve. A clearance between an outer peripheral surface of the injection valve and an inner peripheral surface of the rotary member defines a passage through which the coolant flows. The rotary member has a rotation imparting part that causes the rotary member to rotate about the injection valve in response to a flow of the coolant.

An intake passage structure for an engine includes an intake port in a cylinder head of the engine, and connected to a combustion chamber to define an intake passage. The intake passage structure further includes a heat insulating member disposed along an inner surface of the intake port, and including a bulge having an upstream end surface which is a portion of an upstream end surface of the heat insulating member, the bulge has a radially outwardly protruding radially outer surface and has an increased wall thickness. The wall thickness of the bulge increases from downstream to upstream of the intake port. The upstream end surface of the bulge includes an injection machine connecting portion facing an injection gate configured to inject resin for forming the heat insulating member into the intake port.

A fuel injector isolator includes a support member which is rigid and which is annular in shape being centered about an axis such that the support member has a support member inner periphery which circumferentially surrounds the axis and includes a concave region. The fuel injector isolator also includes an isolation member which is resilient and compliant and which is annular in shape being centered about the axis such that the support member has an isolation member outer periphery and an isolation member inner periphery which accommodates the fuel injector therein. The isolation member is located within the support member inner periphery and includes 1) an isolation member outer periphery upper retention surface which engages the support member first end surface and 2) an isolation member outer periphery lower retention surface which extends into the concave region and engages the concave region of the support member.

A dual piston valve system of a fuel system of a compression ignition engine to control and contain two distinct liquid fuels available to the valve at low pressure while allowing full flow through the valve of whichever one of the fuels is selected and preventing any cross leakage between the fuels.

There is disclosed a method of operating an engine assembly including an internal combustion engine, a common-rail injector for injecting fuel in a combustion chamber of the internal combustion engine, and an oil circuit for lubricating components of the engine assembly. The method includes: injecting fuel in the combustion chamber via the common-rail injector; and exchanging heat between a backflow of fuel from the common-rail injector with oil of an oil circuit of the engine assembly.

Method of controlling the temperature of fuel injected into a combustion engine to enable a reduction in the amount of fuel injected into engines which may be powered both by pure gasoline and by ethanol or by any biofuel mixture.

An injector for injecting a reagent includes a first injector body defining a first end and a second end. The first injector body further includes an outlet opening disposed proximal to the second end. The injector further includes a valve assembly at least partly enclosed by the first injector body. The valve assembly is configured to selectively dispense the reagent through the outlet opening of the first injector body. The injector further includes a cover member coupled to the first injector body and adapted to at least partially cover the second end of the first injector body. The cover member includes an integral flange portion for mounting the injector on a component.
