Patent number: 12110856Abstract: Various embodiments include an adjusting filter for a fluid injector valve comprising: an elongate filter sleeve having an inlet and an outlet; and a filter insert. The filter sleeve includes a filter accepting section at the inlet, a press-fit section, a centring section at the outlet, and a spring engaging surface surrounding the outlet. The press-fit section is arranged between the filter accepting section and the centring section. The filter insert is arranged in the filter accepting section. The filter accepting section has an outer diameter smaller than an outer diameter of the press-fit section. The centring section has an outer diameter smaller than the outer diameter of the press-fit section.Type: GrantFiled: October 2, 2018Date of Patent: October 8, 2024Assignee: VITESCO TECHNOLOGIES GMBHInventors: Ivano Izzo, Fabio Pacchini, Filippo Falaschi

Patent number: 10550809Abstract: A valve assembly for an injection valve is disclosed. The valve assembly includes a valve body having a cavity with a fluid inlet portion and a fluid outlet portion, a valve needle, an armature which is able to slide on the valve needle, and a disc element positioned to limit axial displaceability of the armature relative to the valve needle. The disc element includes a plurality of passages extending in axial direction through a disc-shaped part of the disc element. The passages provide a first flow resistance for a fluid passing in a direction away from the fluid outlet passage and a second flow resistance in a direction towards the fluid outlet passage, wherein the second flow resistance is larger than the first flow resistance.Type: GrantFiled: June 30, 2017Date of Patent: February 4, 2020Assignee: Vitesco Technologies GmbHInventors: Ivano Izzo, Filippo Falaschi

Patent number: 10330062Abstract: An injector for injecting fluid with a valve assembly including a valve body and a valve needle, the needle including an armature retainer and being operable to prevent and to enable injection of fluid, and with an electromagnetic actuator assembly, operable to exert a force for influencing a position of the valve needle, including a pole piece and an armature. The pole piece is positionally fixed with the valve body. The armature is operable to be axially displaced relative to the pole piece and to take along the armature retainer when being displaced towards the pole piece. A fluid channel is defined by the armature retainer constriction surface and the pole piece constriction surface. A hydraulic diameter of the fluid channel is at least twice at large when the valve needle is in a closing position compared to the hydraulic diameter at a maximum displacement away from the closing position.Type: GrantFiled: April 12, 2017Date of Patent: June 25, 2019Assignee: CPT Zwei GmbHInventors: Luigi Marchi, Filippo Falaschi, Ivano Izzo

Patent number: 10309360Abstract: A valve assembly for an injection valve is disclosed, including a valve body with a cavity, a valve needle axially moveable in the cavity, the valve needle being fixedly connected to a retaining element which extends in radial direction and is arranged in an axial region of the valve needle facing away from the fluid outlet portion, and an armature being able to slide on the valve needle and acting on the needle by way of the retaining element. A conical spring is arranged between the retaining element and a top side of the armature facing the retaining element, biasing the armature away from the retaining element.Type: GrantFiled: June 22, 2017Date of Patent: June 4, 2019Assignee: CPT Group GmbHInventors: Filippo Falaschi, Christoph Hamann, Luigi Marchi
