Abstract: A pressure regulating valve in a fuel injection system for internal combustion engines for regulating the pressure in a fuel reservoir in which the operating pressure is adjusted by the dimensioning of an adjusting disk, whose function-determining axial height is ascertained with high precision by a force measuring system and by a travel measuring system by way of ascertaining a spacing between an end face of a valve member of the pressure regulating valve and a reference face of a housing of the pressure regulating valve.

Abstract: A fuel injection valve is described which has a swirl disk downstream from a valve seat, the swirl disk being made of at least one metallic material, having at least two swirl channels opening into a swirl chamber, and in which all layers are adheringly deposited directly one on top of the other by electroplating (multilayer electroplating). The swirl disk is installed in the valve so that the surface normal to its surface forms an oblique angle other than 0° with the longitudinal valve axis, so that a jet angle &ggr; with respect to the longitudinal valve axis is formed due to the orientation of the swirl disk. The fuel injection valve is particularly well suited for direct injection of fuel into the combustion chamber of a compressed mixture externally ignited internal combustion engine.
