Electromagnetic fuel valve

An electromagnetic fuel valve comprising:

• a valve chamber;
• a valve member;
• a valve seat associated with said valve member;
• an electromagnetic drive delimiting said valve chamber and configured to move said valve member relative to said valve seat;
• a coil carrier made of a deformable plastic material and having an axial end;
• an electric coil held on said coil carrier;
• said electromagnetic drive having a receiving housing defining an interior space and a magnet core having an end section;
• said coil carrier being received in said receiving housing;
• said magnet core being inserted in said coil carrier;
• said end section of said magnet core having an outer diameter (D) and lying opposite to said valve member;
• said receiving housing and said magnet core conjointly defining part of a magnetic circuit;
• said receiving housing having an open sealing end facing said valve chamber;
• said axial end of said coil carrier being configured as a sealing element built as a monolithic part of said coil carrier, whereby the deformable plastic material of said axial end of said coil carrier defines sealing material which forms said axial end of said coil carrier between said end section of said magnet core and said open sealing end of said receiving housing;
• said open sealing end defining an edge;
• said axial end of said coil carrier defining a free inner diameter (d) which is less than said outer diameter (D) of said end section of said magnet core so as to cause said magnet core with said end section to widen said deformable plastic material of said axial end of said coil carrier;
• and,
• said end section of said magnet core being configured to press said deformable plastic material of said axial end of said coil carrier radially against said edge of said open sealing end of said receiving housing such that pressed deformable material of said axial end of said coil carrier
• seals said valve chamber with respect to said interior space of said receiving housing.
