  • Patent number: 8382007
    Abstract: A fuel injection valve includes a needle for opening or closing an injection hole. The needle moves in response to a fuel pressure in a control chamber. The fuel injection valve includes an electromagnetic valve which opens or closes a discharge passage for changing pressure in the control chamber to actuate the needle. A narrow part is provided in the discharge passage. The narrow part is formed to shorten a length along a flow direction. The shortened narrow part can suppress pulsations. Therefore, it is possible to accurately control injection quantity, since a variation of closing speed of the armature caused by the pulsations can be suppressed.
