A valve for metering a fluid, the valve preferably being designed as a fuel injector for internal combustion engines. The valve includes an electromagnetic actuator and a valve needle that is actuatable by the actuator. The valve needle is used for actuating a valve closing body that cooperates with a valve seat surface to form a sealing seat. An armature of the actuator includes a through opening through which the valve needle extends. An annular gap is formed between an inner wall of a housing part and an outer side of the armature. A movable damping element that may have a partial ring shape is situated on the annular gap. The movable damping element is actuatable by a magnetic field that is generated by the actuator. The dynamics of the armature may thus be advantageously influenced in order to in particular reduce an armature bounce.

A connecting element for fuel injection systems is used for connecting a fuel injector to a fuel-carrying component. A connecting part is provided, which is fastened on the one side on a shoulder of the fuel-carrying component and, on the other side, on a shoulder of the fuel injector. For this purpose, the connecting part is developed at least partially as a pot spring. A fuel injection system having such a connecting element is also indicated.

A valve for metering a fluid, which is used in particular as a fuel injector for internal combustion engines, includes an electromagnetic actuator and a valve needle, which is actuatable by the actuator, and is used for actuating a valve closing body, which interacts with a valve seat surface to form a seal seat. An armature of the actuator has a through hole, through which the valve needle extends. The armature is guided on the valve needle movably and with clearance. Furthermore, a stop surface which is fixed in place with respect to the valve needle is provided, on which the armature strikes with its end face in conjunction with an actuation. During an axial alignment of the armature with respect to the valve needle, an angle offset is predefined between the stop surface and the end face of the armature.

A fuel injection valve includes: a housing that includes an injection hole and a valve seat; a needle that includes a flange at a radially outer side of the needle and opens or closes the injection hole; a movable core that is installed on the valve seat side of the flange; a first spring that urges the needle toward the valve seat side; a second spring that urges the movable core toward an opposite side, which is opposite from the valve seat; and a limiting member that is installed on a radially outer side of the needle such that the limiting member enables movement of the movable core between the limiting member and the flange on the valve seat side of the flange. The limiting member includes an outside projection, which supports the second spring; and a tubular portion and an inside projection, which are contactable with the movable core.

A mounting is provided for fuel injection systems, the mounting connecting a fuel injection valve to a fuel-conducting component, and having a connecting body and a connecting piece that are connected to one another. Inside the connecting body and the connecting piece there is configured a receptacle space in which a fuel connector of the fuel injection valve is at least partly situated. An inner collar is configured on the connecting piece. In addition, an elastically deformable element is provided. The elastically deformable element is supported at least indirectly on the inner collar of the connecting piece. In addition, the fuel connector is supported at least indirectly on the elastically deformable element. In addition, a fuel injection system having such a mounting is described.

A fuel injector includes a valve with a needle that is movable along a longitudinal axis between an open position and a closed position, for opening or closing the valve. The fuel injector also includes an actuator including an armature and a pole piece, the armature being axially movable and operable to interact mechanically with the needle, such that the needle is moved towards the open position by a movement of the armature in axial direction towards the pole piece. The fuel injector also includes a first spring for biasing the armature in axial direction away from the pole piece. The spring force of the first spring is configured to stop said movement of the armature when the needle is in the open position.

In order to provide a solenoid valve (1) with a valve housing (2), in which an electric coil (3) and a magnet armature (5) are arranged, and with a valve element (8) which can be actuated by the magnet armature (5) in an axial actuation direction for opening and closing the solenoid valve (1), wherein a valve lift of the valve element (8) can be limited in a simple manner, it is provided according to the invention that the coil (3) be arranged on a coil carrier (4), wherein an end section (4a), axially facing the magnet armature (5), of the coil carrier (4) is designed as an end stop for the magnet armature (5) in order to limit an axial movement of the magnet armature (5), and that the coil carrier (4) be formed from a plastic, wherein the coil (3) is at least partially integrated into the coil carrier (4).

A holder for fastening a manifold of a fuel distributor to an attachment structure includes: a first half shell; a second half shell; a first elastically deformable damping element provided on a retaining region of the first half shell; and a second elastically deformable damping element provided on a retaining region of the second half shell. The half shells are joined to each other for fastening the manifold to the attachment structure, in such a way that the half shells enclose the tubular component and retain the tubular component by the elastic damping elements. The two half shells are joined to each other by a film hinge.

The invention relates to an injector for injecting fuel, preferably for injecting a gaseous fuel, in particular hydrogen, comprising a fuel supply line for introducing a highly pressurized gaseous fuel, an active valve which can be actively shut off and which is designed to close or release at least one passage on a first face of a valve plate in order to selectively release or interrupt a fluidic connection between the fuel supply line and a region which is downstream of the first face of the valve plate, and a passive valve which is arranged downstream of the valve plate and can be passively switched to a closing or releasing state as a result of different pressure ratios upstream and downstream of the passive valve.

An injection valve assembly includes a valve body having a cavity with a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet, a valve needle axially movable in the cavity to control fluid flow through the fluid outlet, an electro-magnetic actuator unit having an armature axially movable in the cavity and having a main body and a flange axially distanced from and fixedly coupled to the main body, and a stop element fixed to the valve needle and arranged in the cavity between the main body and the flange. An armature spring in the cavity forces the stop element into contact with an inner surface of the flange. An overlapping area of the stop element and the inner surface is bounded by an inner contour and an outer contour, and an area enclosed by the outer contour is at least three times as large as an area enclosed by the inner contour.
