Abstract: The invention pertains to a fuel injection device operating according to the solidstate energy storage principle, whereby a rotor element carried in a pump housing of an electromagnetically driven reciprocating pump is accelerated almost without resistance, whereby the rotor element stores kinetic energy and impacts on a piston element, so that a pressure impulse is generated in the fuel contained in a closed pressure chamber before the piston element due to the fact that the stored kinetic energy of the rotor element is transferred via the piston element to the fuel in the pressure chamber and whereby the pressure impulse is used for the injection of fuel through a nozzle and whereby the rotor element is carried form-locking on the piston element and the two elements are mutually spring-mounted.

Abstract: The invention pertains to a fuel injection device operating according to the solid state energy storage principle, whereby a piston element mounted in a pump cylinder of an electromagnetic reciprocating pump, displaces quantities of the fuel to be injected during a virtually resistanceless acceleration phase during which the piston element stores kinetic energy, before the ejection in the pump area. The displacement is stopped suddenly with the means for interrupting the displacement, so that a pressure impulse is generated in the fuel contained in a closed pressure chamber by direct transfer of the stored kinetic energy of the piston element to the fuel in the pressure chamber. The pressure impulse for the ejection of fuel is used by an injection device, whereby the means for interrupting the displacement and producing the pressure impulse are arranged outside the leading liquid-tight contact area between piston element and piston cylinder of the reciprocating pump.
