Common component parts for an armature-needle assembly for aftermarket fuel injectors are described herein, where the common components include a needle, an armature, an upper stop flange, a lower stop flange, and one or more guide plates, the flanges and guide plates having apertures configured to accept the needle. The common components are capable of being assembled into at least three different armature-needle assemblies—de-coupled, floating, and fixed configurations. Further included are different sleeve configurations that allow for the adjustment to the induction and the ability to utilize a common solenoid in the different aftermarket fuel injector configurations.

A nozzle needle for an injector for injecting fuel includes at least one guiding section with a recess and a guiding surface configured to rest against an inner surface of a nozzle body of the injector, the recess at least partially delimiting the guiding surface and being configured to allow a flow of fuel along the guiding section, and the guiding surface being guided about the longitudinal axis of the nozzle needle in a helical manner.

A fuel injection valve in which a valve element is formed at a distal end thereof with a flat portion 13c which is substantially parallel with an injection hole plate 11, injection hole entrances 12a are arranged inside an imaginary envelop 15 along an intersection between an extension 10b of a downstream inner wall of a seat portion of a valve seat and an upstream plane 11c of the injection hole plate and outside the flat plane at the distal end of the valve element, and the relation between the vertical distance h between the flat plane at the distal end of the valve element and the upstream plane of the injection hole plate with the valve opened and the diameter d of the injection hole entrance is h<d, and the injection hole 12 is formed to be inclined by a predetermined angle with respect to the direction of the thickness of the injection hole plate.

A method for producing a valve seat ring via powder metallurgy may include compacting a powder mixture including 4% by weight to 16% by weight particles of cobalt to form the valve seat ring. The method may also include sintering the powder mixture after compacting the powder mixture. Before compacting the powder mixture, 80% of the particles of cobalt may have a particle diameter of approximately 4.4 μm to 17.5 μm.

An object of the present invention is to provide a fluid control device with an improved effect of suppressing blowhole generation. Therefore, a component for a flow rate control device of the present invention includes: a first component 140 (A); a second component 107 (B) fixed to the first component by a press-fitting portion 802; a butt-welded portion 803 connecting the first component and the second component; and a first gap 1001 and a second gap 1002 formed between mutually opposing surfaces of the first component and the second component. The first gap is provided on a side of the press-fitting portion with respect to the second gap between the press-fitting portion and the butt-welded portion, and is formed in a direction intersecting a press-fitting direction. The second gap is provided on a side of the butt-welded portion with respect to the first gap between the press-fitting portion and the welded portion, and is formed in a direction intersecting the first gap.

An electromagnetic fuel injection valve includes: a valve body having a rod connected to a valve part; a movable core fitted onto the rod slidably between valve-open side and valve-closed side stoppers; a fixed core having an attracting face opposing the movable core; a valve spring urging the valve body in a valve-closing direction; and an auxiliary spring exhibiting a spring force that urges the movable core to separate from the valve-open side stopper and abut against the valve-closed side stopper when a coil is unenergized. A first curved face part is protruded from a surface, opposing the movable core, of the fixed core, and a second curved face part is provided in an outer peripheral part of a surface, opposing the movable core, of the valve-open side stopper, the first and second curved face parts each having an arcuate cross-section and being capable of abutting against the movable core.

A gap forming member has: a plate portion that is placed on an opposite side of a needle, which is opposite from a valve seat; and an extending portion that is formed to extend from the plate portion toward the valve seat, while an opposite end part of the extending portion, which is opposite from the plate portion, is contactable with a movable core. A first wall surface of the gap forming member, which is a wall surface opposed to an outer wall of the flange, is slidable relative to the outer wall of the flange, and a second wall surface of the gap forming member, which is a wall surface opposed to an inner wall of a stationary core, forms a radial gap, which is a gap in a radial direction, between the second wall surface and the inner wall of the stationary core.

Provided is a fuel injection device that can secure strength capable of withstanding high fuel pressure. In a fuel injection device in which a fuel boundary includes two or more components, two components are press-fitted with an inner diameter and an outer diameter and are brought into contact at a butting surface, abutting welding is performed from a direction nearly parallel to the butting surface, an inner diameter side corner portion of the butting surface of a component to be fitted and press-fitted on an inner diameter side is chamfered longer in a direction perpendicular to the butting surface to increase a welding coupling length than a butting length, welding coupling length is less than welding depth, weld penetration depth is not less than material thickness, and the center of the weld is on a base material side, the outer diameter of which is larger than a joining face.
