  • the guide piston 132 is held adjacent centered on the housing body 14, wherein a parallel to the housing axis 12 extending longitudinal groove 134 ensures the connection of the high-pressure chamber 22 with the fuel inlet channels 54 in the support body 48.
  • a control passage 136 which extends in the support body 48 facing the end portion 60, for receiving an intermediate valve body 62, step-like.
  • the intermediate valve body 62 has a stub engaging in the spring 68, corresponding to a stub protruding from the piston-like end region 36, in the embodiments shown in FIGS. 1-3.
  • control passage 58 Through the intermediate valve body 62 and its stub through again the portion of the control passage 58 extends with the throttle constriction 66. Through this and the control passage 136 is the control chamber 70, at am Support body 48 adjacent intermediate valve body 62, connected via the throttle bore 56 to the high-pressure chamber 22.
  • the embodiment of the fuel injection valve shown in FIG. 6 is extremely similar to that shown in FIG. The essential difference is that the actuator 84 is arranged coaxially with the housing axis 12.
  • the pilot valve seat 88 is integrally formed on an outlet throttle extension 138 of the support body 48.
  • the support body 48 engages with its conical end portion 118 in the conical taper 110 of the recess 108 in the housing body 14 and in turn is sealingly against this. From the conical end portion 118 extends the Auslassdrosselfortsatz 138, which is received with radial play in the corresponding, extending from the taper 110 to the bottom 74 of the Aktuatorareaaus Principleung 72 passage.
  • the outlet throttle insert 78 shown in the embodiments according to FIGS.
  • the outlet throttle restriction 82 is formed in the outlet throttle extension 138.
  • the compressive forces caused by the high pressure in the recess 108 are completely absorbed by the seal between the conical end portion 118 of the support body 48 and the taper 110 in the housing body 14.
  • the element 92 " which is embodied in FIGS. 1 to 5 as a sealing element 92, does not have to assume either a sealing function or a support function of the outlet throttle extension 138.
  • These provisions are omitted in FIG. 6 and consequently they must be involved in the design and assembly of the components involved Even in the embodiment according to Fig. 6, the housing body 14 has the annular sealing surface 140 for the sealing of the combustion chamber (Figure 3). All embodiments shown in FIGS.
  • the housing body 14 has a recess 108 with a conical taper 110 which is open in the direction of the nozzle body 16, and the support body 48 engages in this recess 108 and by means of the closing spring 40 on the taper 110 sealingly held in contact.
  • the nozzle body 16 is particularly short, which allows a very compact design of the fuel injection valve 10. However, it must be considered that the injection valve member 34 and the nozzle body 16 on the housing axis 12 are well aligned, so that the injection valve seat 26 seals and the function when opening and closing the injector is flawless.
  • the clamping nut 18 with an inner surface and the housing body 14 and intermediate body 15 with corresponding outer surfaces - analogous to the surfaces 14 ', 16', 19 '- are formed.
  • FIGS. 1, 2, 3, 5 and 6 function as follows in a known manner. It is assumed that the state shown in the figures, in which the pilot valve 86 is closed, the injection valve member 34 abuts the injection valve seat 26 and the intermediate valve body 62, the fuel inlet passages 54 occlusive, abuts the support body 48. In the control chamber 70 and in the control channel 58, the same pressure prevails as in the high-pressure chamber 22.
  • the actuator 84 is energized, whereby under the hydraulic force of the fuel, the pilot valve member 90 lifts from the pilot valve seat 88 and connects the control passage 58 through the outlet throttle restriction 82 to the low pressure outlet passage 104.
  • the pressure in the control chamber 70 drops, whereby the injection valve member 34 is lifted from the injection valve seat 26.
  • the intermediate valve body 62 remains on the support body 48 in abutment.
  • the actuator 84 is de-energized, whereby the pilot valve 86 is closed.
  • the pilot valve 86 is closed.
  • Support body 48 passes. The fuel injector is ready for the next injection of fuel.
  • the description of the function of the embodiment of the fuel injection valve 4 shown in FIG. 4 is based on the situation shown there.
  • the pilot valve 86 is closed and the injection valve member 34 abuts the injection valve seat 26.
  • the control chamber 70 and the control channel 58 pressure equalization prevails.
  • the actuator 84 is energized, whereby under the hydraulic force of the fuel, the pilot valve member 90 is lifted from the pilot valve seat 88.
  • the control channel 58 is connected to the low-pressure outlet channel 104 (see FIG. 1) through the outlet throttle restriction 82.
  • the pressure in the control chamber 70 drops, which leads to the lifting of the injection valve member 34 from the injection valve seat 26.
  • Fuel is injected under high pressure through the nozzle openings 28 into the combustion chamber.
  • the actuator 84 is de-energized, whereby the pilot valve 86 is closed.
  • the pilot valve 86 is closed.
  • the conical end portions 118 of the support body 48 according to the end portion 118 'form dome-shaped and vice versa.
  • the intermediate body 15 may be formed integrally on the nozzle body 16.
  • This nozzle body 16 has a correspondingly greater axial length, so that it rests directly on the axial end face 20 of the housing body 14. He is then held by the clamping nut 18 on the housing body 14; the cap nut 19 is eliminated.
