A fuel supply nozzle unit includes a fuel supply nozzle, a rear end and an end plate. The fuel supply nozzle includes a front end that has a plurality of fuel supply holes. The rear end extends from the front end and is formed with a threaded portion on its outer surface. The end plate is connected to the rear end and is formed with a plurality of threaded holes.

A connection assembly is used to connect a first body to a second body. The first body includes a bore that is coaxial with a first axis, and a retainer opening that extends coaxially with a second axis. The second axis is perpendicular to the first axis and offset relative to the first axis. In addition, a portion of the retainer opening intersects the bore. The second body includes an insertion portion that is disposed in the bore, a fluid passage that extends through the insertion portion and communicates with the bore, and an outer surface of the second body has a channel. The connection assembly employs an elastic retaining pin that retains the insertion portion within the bore. The retaining pin is disposed in the retainer opening such that a portion of the retaining pin resides in the channel, and the retaining pin is self-aligning and self-retaining.

A connection assembly is used to detachably connect fuel injector to an injector cup of a fuel rail. The connection assembly includes the injector cup that receives and supports the fuel injector, a pair of retaining pins that an configured to retain an inlet end of the fuel injector within a bore of the injector cup, and a retaining clip that retains the retaining pins in corresponding through holes provided in the injector cup. The retaining clip is C-shaped and partially encircles the injector cup such that a first end of the retaining clip extends into the through hole that receives the first pin, the second end of the retaining clip extends into the through hole that receives the second pin. The retaining clip is configured to prevent the pins from exiting the respective through holes and minimize assembly noise.

A method for producing an injector which is designed in particular to inject fuel into an induction pipe or directly into a combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine. The method includes providing an injector base element, providing a rod that is insertible into a through hole of the injector base element, producing a negative matrix of a spray orifice element on an axial end of the rod, inserting the rod into the through hole of the injector base element, positioning the negative matrix situated on the rod relative to the injector base element, producing the spray orifice element having at least one spray orifice by applying a galvanization layer on a downstream end, in the injection direction, of the injector base element and on the negative matrix, and removing the rod and the negative matrix.

An electromagnetic fuel injection valve includes a coupling between an armature and the valve member that allows limited relative movement of the valve member and armature in both the opening and closing directions of the valve member. An injector body includes a non-magnetic section to focus magnetic flux and attractive force through the armature and pole. A modular power group reduces the cost of assembly and includes a plastic encapsulated coil that is protected from environmental moisture and corrosion. A valve seat incorporates a valve seal which improves fuel flow past the valve member when the fuel injection valve is in the open position.

A director plate retainer of a fluid injector includes an outer wall which is annular in shape and which extends from an outer wall first end to an outer wall second end and which is centered about an axis. The director plate retainer also includes a lateral wall which is annular in shape and which extends toward the axis from a radially outer extent, which is proximal to the outer wall, to a radially inner extent, which is distal from the outer wall. The director plate retainer also includes an inner wall which is annular in shape and which extends from an inner wall first end, which is proximal to the lateral wall, to an inner wall second end, which is distal from the lateral wall, the inner wall extending along the axis in a direction that is opposite from the outer wall.

A monolithic fuel rail structure is configured to receive and support a fuel injector, and includes a log, an injector cup that protrudes integrally from an outer surface of the log, and a fuel passage. An inner surface of the log defines a main fuel channel, and the injector cup includes a bore that opens at one end of the injector cup. An inlet end of the fuel injector is received in the bore. The fuel passage provides fluid communication between the bore and the main fuel channel, and the fuel passage corresponds to a portion of a hole that extends through the injector cup on each of opposed sides of the injector cup.

A component for an injection system for mixture-compressing, spark-ignition internal combustion engines, which is used to apportion a fluid under high pressure, in particular a highpressure line or fluid manifold. The component includes a main body on which at least one hydraulic connection is provided, at least the main body having the connection being formed by single stage or multistage forging, an interior being formed on the main body by chip-removing machining after forging and a connection channel, which intersects with the interior in an intersection region, being formed at the connection by chip-removing machining after forging. The intersection region is deburred by mechanical deburring. An injection system and a method for producing such a component are also described.

A fuel injector includes an injector body which accommodates a pole piece of a solenoid actuator. A top portion of the injector body includes a cylindrically formed generally open-ended recessed portion. The recessed portions accommodates a generally cylindrical pole piece, wherein the pole piece includes a bore located along a central axis to provide a fuel flow path. The top portion of the pole piece includes a cylindrically formed recess so as to form a sleeve or lip portion.

A method to prevent generation of impact noise caused by an armature contacting a stopper due to a return spring and damage of the armature and a stopper without adding a part. Excitation of an electromagnetic coil 4 causes an armature 9 at a standby position to move in a plunger 7 direction so as to move the plunger 7 inserted in a pressurizing chamber 3 in a tip end direction against a return spring 8 to a level such that fuel is not injected from an injection nozzle 2. Fuel supplied from a fuel tank to the pressurizing chamber 3 through a fuel intake pipe 10 and inlet check valve 11 is pressurized and vapor included in the fuel inside the pressurizing chamber 3 is discharged to a fuel return pipeline 14 through a spill valve 12 and return passage 13. Excitation of the electromagnetic coil 4 is stopped, and then the electromagnetic coil 4 is re-excited prior to the armature 9 and plunger 7 reaching the standby position due to the return spring 8, such that the return speed of the armature 9 is reduced and an impact when the armature 9 contacts a stopper 15 is mitigated.
