A protector protects a high-pressure fuel pump for an internal combustion engine. A metal collar is insert-molded into a plate-shaped fiber reinforced plastic portion made of a fiber reinforced plastic of the protector. An outer circumferential surface of the collar includes an uneven portion and a smooth surface. The uneven portion includes recesses and projections arranged alternately in a thickness direction of the fiber reinforced plastic portion. The smooth portion includes a smooth surface parallel to the thickness direction of the fiber reinforced plastic portion. The uneven portion and the smooth portion are arranged in the thickness direction on the outer circumferential surface of the collar.

A plastic injection rail, subjected to an inner relative pressure for an engine, includes: a conduit body; a plug; and a junction part overmolded within a contact area defined by portions of the plug and the end of the conduit body. The junction part can fixedly attach the plug into the end of the body, and includes a first portion arranged around the contact area, and a second portion within a space between the conduit body and plug. The plug has a hollow projection that extends toward the plug head. The plug body includes hollow rings including a primary ring arranged at the level of the free end of the plug body and secondary rings arranged between the primary ring and plug head. The junction part presents a generally cylindrical shape formed by rings including a primary ring closest to the contact area, and secondary rings.

It is an object of the present invention to provide a high-pressure fuel supply pump having a pump body capable of improving corrosion resistance and weldability and being manufacturable by forging. Therefore, in the high-pressure fuel supply pump having a metal pump body forming a pressurizing chamber, the pump body is made of a steel material containing 12% to 18% of Cr and 3% to 7% of Ni, and the pump body has a forging surface on a part of the outer peripheral surface.

A tappet assembly for use in translating force between a camshaft lobe and a fuel pump assembly via reciprocal movement within a tappet cylinder having a guide slot. The tappet assembly comprises a tappet body having a shelf and defining a pair of apertures, and a follower assembly. The follower assembly has a shaft, a first bearing and a second bearing, each supported on the shaft for engaging the camshaft lobe. A beam is further supported on the shaft between the first and second bearings and has a platform for engaging the fuel pump assembly. The shaft is disposed in the pair of apertures of the tappet body and the beam is arranged in the tappet body and engaged with the shelf.

The fuel injector according to the invention is distinguished in that a particularly high structural strength and vibration resistance of the valve seat body (5) is provided. The fuel injector (1) includes an excitable actuator for actuating a valve closing body, which forms a seal seat together with a valve seat surface (6) formed on a valve seat body (5), and injection openings (7), which are formed downstream of the valve seat surface (6), the injection openings (7) being introduced into a middle area (44) of the valve seat body (5) protruding outwardly like a cone in the injection direction. The cone-like axially protruding middle area (44) of the valve seat body (5) ends radially outside the orifice areas of all injection openings (7) in a recessed depression (47), from which, in turn, an axially protruding border area (48) of the valve seat body (5) adjoins radially outwardly, so that an overall wavy cone contour of the valve seat body (5) is formed in cross section. The fuel injector is particularly suitable for direct injection of fuel into a combustion chamber of a mixture-compressing spark-ignited internal combustion engine.

A solenoid valve for a fuel system has an electric coil and an armature disposed in a housing. A preassembled valve unit with valve seat, valve member, valve spring, and armature plate connected captively to each other is provided. In the valve unit, the valve seat is loosely secured between valve member and armature plate. The valve unit is inserted and secured in an open housing end and the valve spring contacts an inner shoulder of the housing. Armature plate and armature form a magnetic circuit. The valve member is supported on the armature plate and switched to open and close an outlet of the valve seat. By suppling current, a magnetic field is generated in the armature and attracts the armature plate into an operative valve position. The valve spring returns the armature plate into a rest position when the coil is currentless.

An electromagnetic positioning device having anchor means which are realized for actuating a positioning partner and which are movable in an anchor space relative to stationary core means (30), which conduct magnetic flux, as a reaction to an energization of stationary coil means (32), the coil means, which have a coil support (32) provided with a winding and at least one external contactable connector (46), being embedded at least in sections in the core means and/or being surrounded by said core means and the core means realizing an end surface (34), which is planar at least in sections, for interacting with the anchor means, wherein the core means and the coil means 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 means rest on a membrane-like, continuous and closed base section of the housing, the base section realizing a boundary surface of the anchor space.

An injector for injecting fuel, which is introduced from a fuel rail, into an engine to supply the fuel thereto is provided. In particular, the injector includes a housing, an electromagnetic generation unit accommodated in the housing and formed to generate an electromagnetic field when electric power is applied thereto, a core inserted into a fuel-rail-side end of a bobbin to form a magnetic circuit using the generated electromagnetic field, a lead pipe inserted into an engine-side end of the bobbin to form the magnetic circuit by coupling with the core, a molding unit formed to enclose the electromagnetic generation unit and an outer peripheral surface of the core to block introduction of moisture, and a cover coupled to the outer peripheral surface of the core to constitute the magnetic circuit together with the core.

The present disclosure relates to internal combustion engines. Various embodiments may include a fuel injection system for delivering fuel to an internal combustion engine. For example, fuel injector may include a valve body having a cavity; a valve needle with a retainer moving in the cavity; an actuator assembly comprising: a spring element next to the valve needle; an electro-magnetic coil; an armature element movable in the cavity; and an anti-bounce device. The armature element may be between the retainer portion of the valve needle and the anti-bounce device. The anti-bounce device may impose a spring force and a hydraulic force for dampening a movement of the armature element. The anti-bounce device may comprise a spring portion exerting the spring force to close the valve needle and a hydraulic damper portion integrally connected to the spring portion.

An injector system, in particular a fuel injector system, includes an injector, a housing that at least partially encloses the injector, and a connecting piece that is connected to the injector and includes a connecting area via which the injector is situated in a formfitting manner at the housing.
