  • Publication number: 20150136086
    Abstract: A system, which is used in particular as a fuel injection system for the high-pressure injection in internal combustion engines, includes a fuel distributor and a plurality of fuel injectors. Each fuel injector is situated on a cup of the fuel distributor. At least one of the fuel injectors is fastened to the associated cup by a holding element, which has a supporting surface. The cup has a contact surface on an underside, by way of which the cup is supported at the supporting surface of the holding element by a damping layer. The holding element is attached to the cup. In addition, the fuel injector has a collar, which is braced on the holding element. Because of the damping layer, vibrations are able to be dampened, and the noise transmissions is able to be reduced.

  • Publication number: 20150068497
    Abstract: A system, which in particular is used as a fuel injection system for high-pressure injection in internal combustion engines, includes a fuel distributor and a plurality of fuel injectors. Each of the fuel injectors is situated on a cup of the fuel distributor. At least one of the fuel injectors is fastened to the associated cup by a retaining clip. The retaining clip has at least one clip section which is situated between an inner side of the cup and an outer side of the fuel injector. Furthermore, at least one damping composite element is provided, which is situated between the clip section of the retaining clip and the outer side of the fuel injector. The damping composite element has an elastically deformable damping layer. A decoupling is thus realized, which acts to damp vibrations and consequently to reduce noise.

  • Publication number: 20140311452
    Abstract: A connecting element for fuel injection systems is used for connecting a fuel injector to a fuel-carrying component, in particular a fuel distributor rail. A base body having a receiving space is provided for this purpose. The base body has an opening, via which a fuel fitting of the fuel injector is insertable into the receiving space of the base body. Furthermore, a first annular element is provided in the receiving space, which in the installed state on the one hand interacts with the fuel fitting inserted into the receiving space and on the other hand interacts with the base body. Furthermore, a second annular element is provided in the receiving space of the base body, the first annular element and the second annular element abutting against an outside of the fuel fitting in the installed state.

  • Publication number: 20140284405
    Abstract: A suspension for fuel injection systems is used for connecting a fuel injector to a fuel-carrying component. A connecting body having a receiving space is provided for this purpose. The connecting body has an opening, via which a fuel fitting of the fuel injector is insertible at least partially into the receiving space of the connecting body. Furthermore, an annular element and an elastically deformable element are provided. Fuel fitting is supported via the annular element and the elastically deformable element along an axis of the receiving space of the connecting body. A fuel injection system having such a suspension is also indicated. The suspension allows for a soft coupling of the fuel injector to the fuel-carrying component at a desired target stiffness.
