In a fuel injection device, a driving unit structure has a magnetic aperture, in which an inner diameter is gradually enlarged toward the mover side, provided in an inner peripheral surface of the magnetic core. It is possible to reduce magnetic delay time upon valve opening from the supply of the electric current to the coil to the rise of magnetic flux and magnetic delay time upon valve closing from the stoppage of the electric current to the coil to reduction of magnetic flux, by providing a magnetic aperture in the inner peripheral surface of the magnetic core. Thus it is possible to improve the dynamic responsiveness upon valve opening and valve closing.

The present invention provides a permanent magnet-electromagnet synergistic coupling-based high-speed solenoid valve with a high dynamic response and a low rebound, including a shell and an iron core. The iron core is installed in the shell, an axial center through hole is formed in a middle of the iron core, a spring limiting sleeve is installed in the axial center through hole, an armature and a reset spring cavity are sequentially formed below the iron core, an upper portion of a valve rod is located in the spring limiting sleeve, an upper disc permanent magnet, a lower disc permanent magnet and a spring washer are arranged in the spring limiting sleeve, and a giant magnetostrictor is installed between the upper disc permanent magnet and the lower disc permanent magnet. By means of the present invention, electromagnetic force generated during pickup of the armature can be effectively improved.

A valve assembly for a pump includes an electrical actuator having a stator and an armature, where the armature includes a top armature surface facing the stator and having an inwardly stepped-up profile that forms a raised surface at a radially inward location, and a lower, gap-forming surface at a radially outward location that forms a gap between the armature and the stator when the electrical actuator is activated to facilitate displacing fluid and avoiding production of high velocity, potentially damaging fluid flows.

An electromagnetically driven injector may include an electromagnetic coil, a movable core, a doughnut-shaped fixed core, a valve, a coil spring, and at least one plate spring. When the electromagnetic coil is not energized, a valve closed state may be maintained by a valve element of the valve normally biased in a valve closed direction by cooperation of the coil spring and the at least one plate spring. When the electromagnetic coil is energized, the valve may be opened by the movable core being attracted to the doughnut-shaped fixed core, the valve element attached to the movable core disposed so as to be attracted to the fixed core disposed on a center of the electromagnetic coil being disposed along a stroke direction in the coil spring, the at least one plate spring being provided at a right angle to the stroke direction of the valve element, a central portion of the at least one plate spring being fixed at a fixation position while sandwiched between the valve element and the movable core, both of the valve element and the movable core being in contact with the fixation position, a peripheral edge portion of the at least one plate spring being fixed while sandwiched on a nozzle side. The fixation position of the movable core and the valve element that sandwich the central portion of the at least one plate spring may be assembled by laser welding.
