Abstract: A fuel injector for fuel injection systems of internal combustion engines has an electromagnetic actuating element including a magnet coil, a tubular internal pole and an external magnetic circuit part, a valve sleeve having an internal opening and thin walls and a movable valve closing body which works together with a valve seat assigned to a valve seating body. The valve seating body and the internal pole are fixedly arranged in the internal opening in the valve sleeve . The internal pole has a longitudinal slot formed by producing it by rolling and/or bending.

Abstract: A fuel nozzle including a nozzle stem having an annular overhang and a heat shield secured to the overhang is described. More specifically, and in one embodiment, the nozzle stem includes an upstream end and a downstream end. The annular overhang is intermediate to the upstream end and the downstream end of the stem. The heat shield includes a first end and a second end, and the heat shield is welded to the annular overhang at the heat shield first end. An annular air gap is between the nozzle stem and the heat shield.

Abstract: A saddle seal and washer insertion tool for airless paint spray tip assemblies having a housing containing a reversible tip holder of the type having cylindrical barrel with a handle formed of a polymer, located on and positioned generally transversely of the barrel, the housing having a longitudinal through bore for permitting delivery of paint, and a transverse bore for receiving the barrel of the tip holder, the insertion tool formed integrally with an end of the handle, the tool having a first portion with a width conforming to an internal diameter of the washer and a second portion extending beyond the first portion with a width conforming to a diameter of a bore in the saddle seal such that the washer can be received on the first portion and the saddle seal received on the second portion for alignment and installation into the housing.
Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a jet diffusor for a shower head or the like, which jet diffusor is manufactured by two parts, a hole washer (13) of a hard plastic material and a nozzle washer (14) of an elastic rubber or plastic material. The nozzle washer (14) is manufactured, preferably by injection moulding, with a plain bottom disk (21) and with socket shaped nozzles (22) substantially perpendicularly arranged in relation to this, and raised from the bottom disk socket shaped nozzles (22). The hole washer (13) is manufactured, preferably by injection moulding, with at least one arched underside (15) and with the holes (16) arranged in diverging directions. The nozzle washer is brought to contact with the arched underside of the hole washer, so that the socket shaped nozzles are pressed into and partially through the holes, whereby the nozzles are subjected to a directional change according to the holes in the hole washer.
Abstract: A fuel injector nozzle includes a nozzle body and a poppet disposed in the body for reciprocating movement. The body has an internal bore surrounding the poppet. The internal bore tapers in a constant angle of taper from a front seating region to a fuel reservoir region. The poppet has a corresponding surface which diverges slightly from the bore. The surfaces of the bore and poppet form flow control surfaces which terminate in a sharp-edged orifice at the front face of the nozzle. When the poppet is displaced to an open or flow position, fuel is accelerated to the orifice and atomized into a combustion chamber. The poppet surface being formed so as to properly direct fuel after the poppet surface is machined.
Abstract: According to the present invention, a swirler and a plate are fitted into the inside diameter portion of a nozzle of a fuel injection valve so as to hold the swirler relative to a seat portion of the nozzle, centering between the seat portion of the nozzle and the inside diameter portion of the swirler by a positioning pin, and the plate is caused to plastic flow locally to connect and fix the nozzle, the swirler and the plate whereby maintaining the coaxial degree after connection of parts without influence of accuracy of an individual part of parts of the nozzle of the fuel injection valve.

Abstract: A method for producing a nozzle having a projecting tip part, including the steps of disposing a ceramic green sheet between a first die and a stripper containing a first punch, moving the first punch through a first surface of the ceramic green sheet to form a hole therethrough, inverting the ceramic green sheet, disposing the inverted ceramic green sheet between a second die and a stripper containing a second punch, the second die having a cavity in the shape of a negative configuration of the projecting tip part, moving the second punch through the hole formed in the ceramic green sheet to force a portion of the ceramic green sheet into the cavity of the second die and form the projecting tip part, and baking the ceramic green sheet to form the nozzle.
Abstract: A fuel injector with a body having an inlet portion, an outlet portion, and a fuel passageway extending from the inlet portion to the outlet portion along a longitudinal axis. An armature proximate the inlet portion of the body. A needle operatively connected to the armature. A seat is located proximate the outlet portion of the body. The seat includes a first surface, a second surface, a seat passage extending between the first surface and the second surface in the direction of the longitudinal axis, and a swirl generator formed in the first surface that communicates with the passage. A flat disk, which is located proximate the first surface, includes an aperture that guides the needle and at least one opening that communicates with the swirl generator of the seat. The flat disk combined with the seat provide a seat, swirl generator, and needle guide combination.
