Abstract: A fuel injector may include a fuel injector body having a central longitudinal axis, a plate element for coupling the fuel injector to a fuel injector cup, a snap ring and a spring element is specified. The snap ring is operable to block a movement of the fuel injector body relative to the plate element in a first direction of the central longitudinal axis. The spring element is operable to bias the plate element in a second direction of the central longitudinal axis opposing the first direction of the central longitudinal axis to prevent a movement of the plate element relative to the fuel injector body during coupling to the fuel injector cup.

Abstract: An injection valve assembly includes a valve body having a cavity with a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet, a valve needle axially movable in the cavity to control fluid flow through the fluid outlet, an electro-magnetic actuator unit having an armature axially movable in the cavity and having a main body and a flange axially distanced from and fixedly coupled to the main body, and a stop element fixed to the valve needle and arranged in the cavity between the main body and the flange. An armature spring in the cavity forces the stop element into contact with an inner surface of the flange. An overlapping area of the stop element and the inner surface is bounded by an inner contour and an outer contour, and an area enclosed by the outer contour is at least three times as large as an area enclosed by the inner contour.
