  • Patent number: 4162043
    Abstract: A fuel injection nozzle in which the needle valve has been improved so that all similarly constructed nozzles will exhibit exactly the same flow cross section with a fully opened valve, and so that, with a constant injection pressure, the fuel quantity injected will not vary between the various nozzles serving the engine. The needle valve is provided with a cyclindrical section, which together with an edge region of the nozzle body defines the narrowest flow cross section obtainable with a spray-forming portion of the needle valve at a fully opened position of the needle valve.
