A fuel injector feeds fuel to a combustion chamber of a cylinder of a dual-fuel engine and includes: a main body having a needle guide; a nozzle needle guidable in the needle guide; a needle fuel chamber defined by the main body, coupleable to the combustion chamber, wherein the orifices are open in a first position of the nozzle needle and closed in a second position of the nozzle needle; a first line arranged in the main body, and being coupled to the needle fuel chamber, via the first line a fuel being introduceable into the needle fuel chamber. In the main body a second line is coupleable to the needle guide and to a control chamber of a control valve of the fuel injector, wherein via the second line a fuel is feedable to the needle guide as barrier fluid and to the control chamber as working fluid.

Intake arrangement for an internal combustion engine for the intake of a liquid medium from a container, having a strainer, via which liquid medium can be taken in from the container, and having at least one suction pipe which opens with a first end into the strainer and via which the liquid medium can be delivered towards a suction pump, which interacts with the respective suction pipe. The suction pipe is mounted at a second end that faces away from the strainer such that it can be pivoted about an axis such that the suction pipe follows a movement of the liquid within the container.

A system includes a fuel delivery system of an engine, the fuel delivery system including a vent tube, walls providing a seat and forming a cavity at an opening of the vent tube, a floor of the cavity, the floor including a convex portion protruding from the floor, and a stopper in the cavity for sitting in the seat during a rollover situation.

The fuel system for introducing liquid fuel into the cylinders of a piston engine has a fuel tank for storing the fuel, a pump for pressurizing the fuel, at least one fuel injector for injecting fuel into a cylinder of the engine, and a fuel pipe for supplying fuel from the pump to the fuel injector. The fuel system further has a source of inert gas and means for introducing inert gas into the fuel pipe for purging the fuel pipe.

A fuel passage structure of a fuel supply device is configured to supply fuel from a fuel tank to an internal combustion engine. The fuel passage structure includes a passage-forming member that forms a fuel passage and a check valve. The fuel passage includes a vertical passage extending in a vertical direction and a lateral passage extending in a horizontal direction. The check valve is disposed at an intersection of the vertical passage and the lateral passage. The check valve includes a valve body configured to close under its own weight. The valve body is movably arranged within the vertical passage in the vertical direction. The check valve is provided with a restriction member which restricts movement of the valve body into the lateral passage, while at the same time the restriction member does not disturb the forward flow of the pressurized fuel.

A fluid pump includes a housing; an inlet passage; an outlet conduit; a pumping element within the housing; and a check valve assembly. The check valve assembly includes a valve stem within the outlet conduit such that a flow path is created radially between the outlet conduit and the valve stem, the valve stem moving along a check valve assembly axis between a closed position and an open position. The flow path includes a first restriction which increases velocity of fluid passing through the flow path; a first expansion, downstream of the first restriction, which decreases velocity of fluid passing through the flow path; a second restriction, downstream of the first expansion, which increases velocity of fluid passing through the flow path; and a second expansion, downstream of the second restriction, which decreases velocity of fluid passing through the flow path.

Responsiveness is improved in valve opening and valve closing of an electromagnetically driven intake valve unit in which a valve is provided on a pressurizing chamber side of a valve seat. The valve includes an annular abutting surface that abuts the valve seat to shut off a fuel intake passage and a bottomed cylindrical part provided at an inner peripheral part of the annular abutting surface. The bottomed cylindrical part is inserted into a fuel introduction hole formed in the valve housing inside the valve seat, and the outer surface of an end part of the bottomed cylindrical part is exposed to fuel in a low pressure fuel chamber provided upstream of the fuel introduction hole.

A fuel tank inlet check valve replacement kit is provided. The fuel tank inlet check valve replacement kit is adapted to obviate the need to replace the entire fuel tank when there is a fracture in the inlet check valve. The replacement kit includes a fuel inlet fluidly connected to a body portion thereof. Within a chamber of the body portion a spring-biased check valve may be moveable between an open condition and a closed condition blocking the flow between the body portion and the fuel inlet, wherein fuel supplied through the fuel inlet moves the check valve to the open condition, that is otherwise biased in the closed condition. The chamber has side ports so that fuel flowing from the fuel inlet flows into the fuel tank. Tank seals and a gasket seals the fuel inlet to the tank.

The invention relates to a drainage connector (1) having a cup-shaped housing (2) which comprises a housing base (3) and a housing wall (4). A connection geometry (5) is arranged on the outside on the housing wall (4) for inserting into a container opening, wherein an inlet pipe (9) of an inlet side (7) is guided to an outlet side (8) through the housing base (3) and an annular collecting chamber (10) is formed between the inlet pipe (9) and the housing wall (4). In order to discharge denser fluid which can accumulate in the collecting chamber, the housing (2) has a discharge channel (11), which leads from the collecting chamber (10) to the outlet side (8) and can be closed from the outlet side (8). The drainage connector is intended to be producible in a cost-effective manner at low cost and to have a low mass. For this purpose, the inlet pipe (9) on the outlet side (8) merges into an outlet pipe (13) which has a closing element (16) that can be moved between an open position and a closed position, wherein the housing (2) comprising the connection geometry (5), the inlet pipe (9) and the outlet pipe (13) is formed from plastic as a single piece.

A valve element includes: a loosely insertable wall portion that is loosely inserted in an inside of a connecting portion on a downstream side of a valve seat; a fittable tubular portion that is fitted to the inside of the connecting portion on a downstream side of the loosely insertable wall portion; and a projecting annular portion-that projects from the fittable tubular portion toward a radially inner side of the fittable tubular portion. An outlet portion projects into the fittable tubular portion. A valve spring is located on a radially outer side of the outlet portion and on the radially inner side of the fittable tubular portion to urge the valve element toward the valve seat.
