Patent number: 6098903Abstract: A fuel injector includes an injector body defining a terminal passage extending between a solenoid cavity and an outer surface. A solenoid assembly is press fit attached to the injector body and received in the solenoid cavity. The solenoid assembly includes a bobbin sandwiched between an upper magnetic flux carrier and a lower magnetic flux carrier. At least one of the flux carriers is plastically deformed when the solenoid assembly is attached to the injector body. A terminal assembly has an external terminal, an electrical conductor and a sealing member surrounding a portion of the electrical conductor. A portion of the electrical conductor and the sealing member are received in the terminal passage. A clamp is in contact with the outer surface of the injector body and the terminal assembly.Type: GrantFiled: December 14, 1998Date of Patent: August 8, 2000Assignee: Caterpillar Inc.Inventors: Matthew S. Touvelle, Thomas R. Springer, Jeffrey R. Ries, James J. Streicher, David V. Teel, Van A. Flamion
