In at least some implementations, a fuel metering valve, includes a bobbin defining a passage and having one or more voids in the surface of the bobbin that defines the passage, aa wire coil around the bobbin and an armature. The armature is received within the passage in the bobbin and movable relative to the bobbin from a first position to a second position when electricity is supplied to the wire coil.

A fluid distributor for an injection system, in particular a fuel distributor rail for a fuel injection system for mixture-compressing, spark ignition internal combustion engines. The fuel distributor includes a tubular base body, which is preferably processed by a one-stage or multi-stage forging process, a first high-pressure output, a second high-pressure output, a third high-pressure output, and a fourth high-pressure output being provided at the base body. The second high-pressure output is situated offset by a predefined distance compared to the first high-pressure output in a first direction along a longitudinal axis of the tubular base body. The third high-pressure output is situated offset by the predefined distance compared to the second high-pressure output along the longitudinal axis in the first direction, the fourth high-pressure output being situated offset by the predefined distance compared to the third high-pressure output along the longitudinal axis in the first direction.

A fuel supply system for an internal combustion engine includes an air compressor, an air cooler connected downstream of the air compressor and the compressed air supply passage, and a bypass passage connected downstream of the air compressor. The fuel supply system also includes a fuel injector secured to the compressed air supply passage or secured to the bypass passage and a valve connected between the air compressor and the air cooler, the valve being configured to block a flow of intake air to the air cooler, causing the intake air to flow to the bypass passage or to permit the flow of intake air to the air cooler.

Examples are directed to a fuel injection device positioned in a cylinder liner. In one example, a cylinder includes a combustion chamber which is jointly formed by a piston crown of a piston, by a cylinder barrel which laterally delimits the combustion chamber, and by a cylinder head. The cylinder includes an injection device positioned in the cylinder barrel for direct introduction of fuel into the combustion chamber, which injection device has at least one opening which, during a course of an injection process, is configured to be activated to introduce fuel into the combustion chamber, the injection device terminating flush, at a combustion chamber side, with the cylinder barrel.

A fuel injector is configured so that, when seen from a top view of a combustion chamber, a first fuel spray flux and a second fuel spray flux sandwich an electrode part of a spark plug, and the electrode part is located outside of contour surfaces of the two fuel spray fluxes. A first injection angle between a center line of the first fuel spray flux and a vertical line and a second injection angle between a center line of the second fuel spray flux and the vertical line are larger than an angle between a center line of any other fuel spray flux and the vertical line. The second injection angle is made smaller than the first injection angle so that a distance from the electrode part to the contour surface of the second fuel spray flux is larger than a distance from the electrode part to the contour surface of the first fuel spray flux.

In some embodiments, a fuel rail for a two-stroke internal combustion engine includes a fuel rail body, a fuel inlet component integrated within the fuel rail body as a one-piece component and in fluidic contact with a fuel line, one or more fuel exit ports in fluidic contact with a cylinder of a combustion engine, and one or more fasteners adapted to secure the fuel rail body to a cylinder wall of the cylinder of the combustion engine

A cylinder head assembly includes a cylinder head casting, and an injector sleeve within an injector bore in the cylinder head casting. The injector sleeve includes a first sleeve end, and an injector clamping surface formed by an inner sleeve surface adjacent to a cylindrical second sleeve end. The injector sleeve further includes a sleeve clamping surface in contact with an upward facing middle deck surface of the cylinder head casting, and a reaction wall extending between the injector clamping surface and the sleeve clamping surface to transfer an injector clamping load to the upward facing middle deck surface.
