Abstract: Recent exhaust gas regulation requires reduction of an amount and quantity of particulate matter included in an exhaust gas, and a normal maximum fuel pressure may be increased to approximately 35 MP. When the normal maximum fuel pressure is 35 MPa, a fuel injection valve is required to work for example at a pressure up to 45 MPa. In such a condition, a fluid force may exceed a valve opening force depending on a seat diameter, and a needle valve cannot be kept open and closed, when opening thereof is required.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a fuel injection valve configured to suppress bouncing of a valve element that is caused as a result of the valve element being rendered elastic when the valve element collides with a valve seat. The fuel injection valve of the present invention includes the valve element configured to come into contact with the valve seat for closing an injection hole and to separate from the valve seat for unclosing the injection hole, an elastic member urging the valve element toward the valve seat, a movable iron core disposed to be in and out of contact with the valve element, a fixed iron core disposed to be opposed to the movable iron core, and a coil configured to generate electromagnetic force for moving the movable iron core.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a fuel injection valve which has a structure where failure hardly occurs in a valve member and a peripheral member thereof at the time of press-fitting of a fixed core. The present invention provides a fuel injection valve that includes: a valve member 114A; an anchor 102 which is relatively displaceable with respect to the valve member 114A; a fixed core 107 in which a through-hole 107A is formed; a gap forming member 133 which forms a gap between an engagement portion 129B on the valve member side and an engagement portion 102D on the anchor side; and a biasing spring 134 which biases the gap forming member 133 in a valve closing direction. The engagement portions 102D and 129B are provided in both the anchor 102 and the valve member 114A so as to be engaged with each other when the anchor 102 is displaced in a valve opening direction with respect to the valve member 114A, thereby regulating the displacement of the anchor 102 in the valve opening direction.

Abstract: A fuel injection valve includes: a valve member; an anchor configured to be relatively displaceable in a valve opening-and-closing direction with respect to the valve member; a fixed core; a first spring biasing the valve member in a valve closing direction; a second spring biasing the anchor in the valve opening direction from an opposite side of the fixed core; and a third spring biasing the anchor in the valve closing direction from the fixed core side and has a biasing force smaller than a biasing force of the first spring and larger than a biasing force of the second spring where engagement portions are provided in both the anchor and the valve member to be engaged with each other when the anchor is displaced in the valve opening direction with respect to the valve member, thereby regulating the displacement of the anchor in the valve opening direction.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a fuel injector which can promote convergence of a motion of a valve body while a valve is opened and promote stabilization of an injection amount. In the present invention, a fuel injector includes a movable iron core 404, a fixed iron core 401, a first spring member 405, a second spring member 406, contact portions 102c and 404b?, and a gap g1. The movable iron core 404 is provided relatively displaceable to a valve body 102. The fixed iron core 401 is opposed to the movable iron core 404. The first spring member 405 energizes the valve body 102 in a valve closing direction. The second spring member 406 energizes the movable iron core 404 in a valve closing direction. The contact portions 102c and 404b? are in contact with each other in a case where the movable iron core 404 displaces in a valve opening direction with respect to the valve body 102. The gap g1 is formed between the contact portions 102c and 404b? in a valve closing state.

Abstract: A spark-ignition direct fuel injection valve includes, at least, a seat member provided with a fuel injection hole and a valve seat and a valve body which controls fuel injection from the injection hole by contacting and separating from the valve seat. In the spark-ignition direct fuel injection valve: the injection hole has an injection hole inlet which is open inwardly of the seat member and an injection hole outlet which is open outwardly of the seat member; an opening edge of the injection hole inlet has a first round-chamfered portion formed on an upstream side with respect to a fuel flow toward the injection hole inlet; and an extending length (L) of the injection hole does not exceed three times a hole diameter (D) of the injection hole.

Abstract: In a fuel injection valve, it is possible to obtain spray in which the penetrating force of injected fuel is suppressed. The fuel injection valve includes a valve seat that forms a gap with a valve body, the gap allowing fuel to pass therethrough, and multiple injection holes that are located further downstream from the gap. The fuel to which pressure is applied flows out from the injection holes. When the flow velocity of the fuel in the gap formed between the valve body and the valve seat is indicated by meters per second, the flow velocity is set to be greater than a value obtained by multiplying the square root of the pressure applied to the fuel by 28. In this manner, the flow velocity in the gap increases, and flow velocity distribution inside the injection hole is uniformized, thereby suppressing an increase in penetration.

Abstract: In a fuel injection valve used in an internal combustion engine, fuel spray travel distance is shortened.

Abstract: It is important not to form the partial bump in the collision structural part, however the fixed core and the movable core are relatively inclined due to an accumulation of tolerances and therefore even if each collision structural part of the fixed core and the movable core in formed in a flat shape, the fixed core and the movable core are contacted with not the whole of the collision structural parts but a part of the collision structural parts at the moment of the collision. In a case in which the collision structural part is formed in a ring shape or an intermittent ring shape, the fixed core and the movable core are contacted with each other at outer peripheral parts. Thus, when the fixed core and the movable core are collided with each other, a high stress is applied to the outer peripheral parts contacted first.

Abstract: An object of the invention is to provide a fuel injection valve that applies a swirl to an upstream side of a seat section to shorten spray penetration. When flows into injection hole entries are indicated by arrows 101a to 106a and injection hole exit directions are indicated by arrows 201 to 206, an angle ? defined by the inflow direction 101a and the exit direction 201 of an injection hole 71 can be increased. In a method for applying the twisted angle ?, a side groove 15a on an outer peripheral side of a guide member 12a is set to be accompanied with a twist with respect to an axis O1. Furthermore, a flow passage area of the side groove 15a is set smaller than a flow passage area on an upstream side of the guide member 12a and is also set larger than a flow passage area of a seat section 7B that is constructed by a gap between a valve body 7 and an orifice cup 7.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a fuel injection valve that imparts swirl upstream of a seat portion and shortens a spray penetration. At injection holes set adjacent to an injection hole and at injection holes set adjacent otherwise, nonuniform pitch angles ?1 and ?2 among the holes as well as stronger flows into the injection holes by a smaller angle ? due to a smaller inflow angle ?1 of a fluid into the injection holes can shorten the spray penetration at the injection hole.

Abstract: To improve the accuracy of an injection amount by a fuel injection valve, the open/close operation of a valve body needs to be performed promptly. This requires a configuration in which, immediately after starting movement of a movable member, fluid force generated at a seat portion of the valve body is not transmitted. It is also required to suppress a cohesion phenomenon between an end surface of an anchor and an end surface of a fixed core and to prevent sticking. To solve this problem, an electromagnetic fuel injection valve has a configuration in which a valve body includes a second valve body configured to abut against an anchor at valve close, a first valve body that abuts against the anchor at valve open. The second valve abuts against a stroke stopper arranged on an inner periphery of a fixed core at a time of valve-open.

Abstract: In an electromagnetic fuel injection which is structured such that both end surfaces of an inner circumferential iron core portion and an outer circumferential iron core portion face a movable iron core, and a non-magnetic portion made of a metal material is provided between both end surfaces, an object of the present invention is to realize a structure of the electromagnetic fuel injector in which a surface of a target object is unlikely to be affected by a heat treatment with the surface facing the movable iron core.
