A connector for mounting a sensor such as a pressure sensor in a fuel system includes a connector body and a tube body. The tube body has sealing surfaces at opposite axial ends that are structured to bias rotation of the connector body and the tube body to occur relative to one another rather than the connector body causing the tube body to rotate against a housing of a fluid reservoir in the system. Deformation of the housing is limited by way of the biasing of rotation.

A fuel injector includes an injector housing, an outlet check, an injection control valve assembly, and a valve seat orifice plate integrating a valve seat and various orifices for outlet check control. In the valve seat orifice plate a drain orifice extends between a valve seat surface and a check control chamber formed between a closing hydraulic surface of the outlet check and the valve seat orifice plate. First and second re-pressurization orifices extend between an outer surface of the valve seat orifice plate and the check control chamber.

A flow control system for a fuel injector of an internal combustion engine includes: an inlet channel, an outlet channel, a return channel for returning pressurized fuel to a low-pressure system having a lower pressure than the inlet channel, a fuel outlet chamber, a moveable nozzle control member in the fuel outlet chamber for selectively allowing the pressurized fuel to flow into the outlet channel, a biasing member biasing the nozzle control member towards a closed position, a moveable member defining, with the nozzle control member, a fuel control chamber configured to bias the nozzle control member towards its closed position, a moveable valve member for selectively opening and closing a flow passage and a fuel connection between the inlet channel and the fuel control chamber for pressurizing the fuel control chamber.

A fuel injection system includes a first high pressure fuel source, a return channel connected to a second low pressure fuel source, a residual pressure regulator having an inlet and an outlet connected to the return channel, and a fuel injector having a control valve arrangement comprising an inlet, an outlet and a return port, a fuel injection nozzle having an outlet chamber, an injection outlet, and a needle member in the outlet chamber. The needle member is biased to a closed position to block fluid communication between the outlet chamber and the injection outlet, and to open fluid communication by a pressure in the outlet chamber. The residual pressure regulator is connected to a spill valve to regulate pressure to a residual pressure higher than the pressure in the return channel and lower than the pressure of the first fuel source.

An exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) cooler for mounting to a coolant collector bracket may include a cooler body having a top, a bottom, a length extending in a longitudinal direction, and a width extending in a lateral direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction, and at least one mount coupled to the bottom of the cooler body. An interior of the mount may be in fluid communication with an interior of the cooler body. A width of the at least one mount in the lateral direction of the cooler body may be equal to or less than the width of the cooler body. The at least one mount may be positioned such that the mount does not extend beyond the width of the cooler body.

A flame arrestor screw for a solenoid operated gas admission valve. The flame arrestor screw may include a screw body having a first end and an open end. The flame arrestor screw may include a gas passage extending from the open end along a longitudinal axis of the screw body and terminating at a terminal end within the screw body. A through hole may extend through the screw body transverse to the gas passage and in fluid communication with the gas passage.

A flow control system for a fuel injector of an internal combustion engine includes: an inlet channel, an outlet channel, a return channel for returning pressurized fuel to a low-pressure system having a lower pressure than the inlet channel, a fuel outlet chamber, a moveable nozzle control member in the fuel outlet chamber for selectively allowing the pressurized fuel to flow into the outlet channel, a biasing member biasing the nozzle control member towards a closed position, a moveable member defining, with the nozzle control member, a fuel control chamber configured to bias the nozzle control member towards its closed position, a moveable valve member for selectively opening and closing a flow passage and a fuel connection between the inlet channel and the fuel control chamber for pressurizing the fuel control chamber.

A fuel injection device injecting a fuel from an injection hole to a combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine includes a valve body including a fuel passage through which the fuel flows to the injection hole and a seat portion facing the fuel passage, a valve member moving in the valve body in an axial direction of the valve body and opening and closing the injection hole by being removed from and seated on the seat portion, a dividing member defining a pressure control chamber placed at a position opposite to the injection hole with respect to the valve member, and an outer peripheral member surrounding an exterior of an outer periphery of the dividing member. The pressure control chamber controls a movement of the valve member by a pressure of the fuel that is introduced. The outer peripheral member and the valve body constitute the fuel passage.

A large two-stroke turbocharged compression-ignited internal combustion crosshead engine with a plurality of cylinders has at least one pressure booster for each cylinder for boosting fuel pressure, two or more electronically controlled fuel valves for each cylinder with an inlet of the two or more electronically controlled fuel valves being connected to an outlet of the at least one pressure booster. An electronic control unit is connected to the at least one pressure booster and the two or more electronically controlled fuel valves. The electronic control unit is configured to determine a start time for a fuel injection event, activate the at least one pressure booster ahead of the determined start time and pen the two or more electronically controlled fuel valves at the determined start time.

An electrical module for use within a fuel injector for delivering fuel to an internal combustion engine is described. The electrical module has a variable length. The electrical module comprises electrical contacts for operatively connecting the electrical module to a power plug of a fuel injector. The electrical module also comprises an actuator for operatively controlling a control valve disposed within the fuel injector. The electrical module also comprises electrical conductors arranged within a protective housing. These electrical conductors provide an electrical connection between the electrical contacts and the actuator in order to provide electrical power to the actuator when the electrical contacts are operatively connected to the power plug of the fuel injector. The body of the electrical module is comprised of a compressible elastic element, such that the length of the module is variable by compressing the elastic element. Injectors including such electrical modules are also described.
