The invention relates to an injection device for an internal combustion engine, comprising a needle and an armature, which is operatively connected to the needle in such a way that a movement of the needle can be produced by movement of the armature, the armature having at least one passage bore, through which fuel can be conducted to a needle tip, characterized in that a longitudinal axis of the needle and a longitudinal axis of the passage bore are oriented askew in relation to each other.

A fuel injection system of an internal combustion engine includes: an injector having a hydraulic control chamber controlling the delivery of fuel through the injector, an actively controlled first valve system controlling the pressure relief from the control chamber, movable between: a first position in which the first valve system closes the injector by deterring the pressure from being relieved from the control chamber through the first relief circuit, and a second position in which the first valve system opens the injector by allowing the pressure to be relieved from the control chamber through the first relief circuit. A second relief circuit allows the pressure to be relieved from the control chamber through the second relief circuit. The second relief circuit includes a second valve system passively controlled by the fuel pressure and movable between two positions deterring or allowing the pressure to be relieved from the control chamber through the second relief circuit.

A fuel injector body includes a body that includes an at least partially annular configuration defining a longitudinal axis, a circumferential direction, and a radial direction. A first counterbore and a first cavity extend from the first end toward the second end, and an external interface portion including a sealing surface is disposed axially between the first end and a shoulder. The first cavity defines a bottom surface and a peripheral surface, and the body also includes a leak passage extending from the bottom surface that is in communication with the first cavity.

The invention relates to a fuel injector (1) for operating with combustible gas. The fuel injector has a plurality of combustible-gas nozzle valve elements (9), and the stroke of each of the combustible-gas nozzle valve elements can be controlled by means of a paired hydraulic piston control assembly (55) of the fuel injector, wherein each piston control assembly is formed by two control chambers (59, 61) and a piston section (63) on the combustible-gas nozzle valve element paired with the piston control assembly, said piston section separating the control chambers in such a way that their volumes can be varied, and the fuel injector is designed to control the stroke of the combustible-gas nozzle valve elements in tandem using a 3/2-way valve (67), by means of which the hydraulic pressure in one of the two control chambers of the piston control assemblies is controlled.

A valve for metering a fluid is described, which is used, in particular, as a fuel injector for internal combustion engines, including an electromagnetic actuator and a valve needle actuatable by the actuator, an armature of the actuator being guided on valve needle, a stop element which limits a movement of the armature relative to the valve needle being situated on the valve needle, and the armature including a spring receptacle which is open toward the stop element and in which a spring supported on the stop element is inserted. The valve needle is guided via the armature and/or the stop element along a longitudinal axis of a housing. Furthermore, as viewed along the longitudinal axis, a length of the spring receptacle is smaller than a spring length of the spring in the non-actuated initial state.

A fuel injector for a common rail fuel system includes an energizer section, an injector section, and control section axially disposed along an injector axis. To control and injection event, the control section includes a control orifice manifold that has a plurality of control orifices and control passages to distribute high pressure fuel with the injector assembly. To prevent plugging of the control orifices and passages, an internal filter element with a plurality of filtration orifices is located in proximity to the control orifice manifold.

A dual fluid injection system which comprises a liquid fuel metering device, a fluid delivery device, and apparatus providing an interface therebetween. The interface conveys liquid fuel along a flow path from the metering device to a mixing zone for mixing with air from a pressurized supply to provide an air-fuel mixture for injection by the fluid delivery device into a combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine. The flow path may involve a directional change by way of a turn section. The flow path is sized such that liquid fuel is retained therein by virtue of capillary action, whereby a quantity of liquid fuel is retained after a delivery event such that the flow path remains substantially filled with liquid fuel in readiness for the next delivery event during operation of the engine.

An apparatus for a diesel engine in a motor vehicle includes a base and a plurality of ducts positioned on the base. The base is positioned about a fuel injector. When the fuel injector injects a plurality of fuel sprays into a cylinder of the diesel engine, some of the plurality of fuel sprays are directed by the plurality of ducts into the cylinder.
