続することができる。(1) Since the intermediate member and the tip of the nozzle made of ceramics are fusion-bonded to each other by using a metal whose coefficient of thermal expansion is substantially the same as that of ceramics for the intermediate member, it is possible to prevent an excessive thermal stress from being applied to the connecting portion. Therefore, the connection strength between the intermediate member and the tip of the nozzle can be kept constant. Further, a seat portion is formed to seat the seat surface of the needle valve on the metallic nozzle body, and the impact force generated when the needle valve is seated is used as a force for separating the nozzle tip portion and the intermediate member from each other. Since it does not work directly, the connection strength between the intermediate member and the tip of the nozzle can be kept constant. Therefore, the ceramic nozzle tip can be integrally connected to the metal nozzle body.
