A fuel injector assembly includes a valve housing, a valve stem that is disposed in the valve housing, a magnetic coil that surrounds the valve housing and is used to displace the valve stern within the valve housing, and a terminal blade. The terminal blade includes a bus bar that provides an electrical connection between the magnetic coil and an external connector. In addition, the terminal blade includes a clip that is connected to the bus bar at a clip first end and to the valve housing at a clip second end. The clip includes a sacrificial portion that is configured to part, for example by dissolving, when the terminal blade undergoes an overmolding process. As a result of the overmolding process, the clip is separated into multiple, spaced portions.

Gas admission valve assembly includes a housing, an elongated valve guide disposed within a central bore of the housing, a valve including a valve stem slidably disposed within the valve guide and a valve head selectively engagable with a valve seat of the housing to control flow between gas entry and exit openings into a housing entry chamber. First and second stem seals are disposed at opposite ends of the valve guide in sealing engagement with the valve stem between the valve stem and the central bore of the housing distally and the valve guide proximally.

Methods and systems are provided for a sealing device. In one example, a seal comprises a plurality of radial features and a plurality of axial features extending from a cylindrical body, the cylindrical body comprises a first material and a second material, wherein the second material is stiffer than the first material.

A fuel injector has means to directly inject one type of fuel or two types of fuels collectively with fuel ratios on demand. Once being used as a single fuel injector, the injector can enable injection rate shaping. Once being used as a dual fuel injector, the injector can tailor fuel properties on demand. The fuel injector has the capability to enable tailored chemical and thermal-physical fuel properties to enable high efficiency clean combustion for different engine loads and speeds.

A fuel pump includes a pump housing with a pumping chamber an inlet valve bore. An inlet valve selectively provides and prevents fluid communication between an inlet of the fuel pump and the pumping chamber. The inlet valve includes an inner housing received within the inlet valve bore such that an outer periphery of the inner housing is sealed to an inner periphery of the inlet valve bore. An outer housing circumferentially surrounds the inner housing. An annular chamber is defined radially between the inner housing and the outer housing and axially between the outer housing and the pump housing. A sealing ring is located within the annular chamber such that the sealing ring is compressed axially against the pump housing and the outer housing.

A fastener assembly for connecting a fuel pipe to an engine component. The fastener assembly includes a housing and a fastener positioned within the housing. The housing has an end surface with an aperture for receiving a fuel pipe therethrough. At least one side wall extends from the end surface to define a recess for receiving a fastener therein. The fastener has a pipe inlet for receiving a fuel pipe therethrough, and a connecting arrangement for connecting the fastener to an engine component.

An improved injector cup may be used in diesel engines that fits more securely into the engine's cylinder heads to better prevent engine coolant from leaking into the fuel and/or fuel leaking into the coolant. An improved injector cup may be designed to accommodate specific engine types and sizes in order to prevent engine coolant from leaking into the fuel and/or fuel leaking into the coolant.

A fuel pump includes a pump housing with a pumping chamber an inlet valve bore. An inlet valve selectively provides and prevents fluid communication between an inlet of the fuel pump and the pumping chamber. The inlet valve includes an inner housing received within the inlet valve bore such that an outer periphery of the inner housing is sealed to an inner periphery of the inlet valve bore. An outer housing circumferentially surrounds the inner housing. An annular chamber is defined radially between the inner housing and the outer housing and axially between the outer housing and the pump housing. A sealing ring is located within the annular chamber such that the sealing ring is compressed axially against the pump housing and the outer housing.

A fuel pump for a direct injection system and having: a main body; a pumping chamber; a piston, which is mounted in a sliding manner on the inside of the pumping chamber; an intake duct, which ends in the pumping chamber; an intake valve, which is arranged along the intake duct; and a flow rate adjustment device provided with a control rod which is coupled to the intake valve and with an electromagnetic actuator which is configured to axially move the control rod. The flow rate adjustment device has a containing element, which houses the electromagnetic actuator, has an open end facing the intake valve, and ends with a “U”-shaped rim which has an outer ring which is arranged around the containing element at a given distance from a cylindrical wall of the containing element. An annular weld (22) is obtained between the main body and the outer ring of the “U”-shaped rim.

An injector clip includes a lower plate formed to support a fuel injection portion of an injector, a base plate is formed to engage with and support a connection portion of the injector and an engagement support portion elastically supports the lower plate and the base plate to return the fuel injection portion to an original position after being displaced. A spring arm is formed by extending from the base plate to support a fuel inlet portion of the injector. Accordingly the load resulting from fuel injection of a fuel injector is attenuated and p a fuel injection device is prevented from rotating.
