Abstract
A fuel injection device for internal combustion engines including a fuel distributor which has a plurality of connection fittings with a radially protruding locking collar. A plurality of fuel injection valves embodied as so-called top-feed valves that are inserted in a liquid-tight manner into the connection fitting. For retention of the fuel injection valves these valves are provided with oppositely disposed catch springs which extend parallel to the valve axis and on faces oriented toward one another have a groove and locking protrusion for engaging the locking collar from behind.
Claims3
A fuel injection device for internal combustion engines having a fuel distributor line, said fuel distributor line includes a plurality of connection fittings with a radially protruding locking collar on its end, a plurality of fuel injection valves each of which include a housing (16), each of said injection valves include a connection end having a connection opening which connection end is inserted into a respective connection fitting in a liquid-tight manner, each fuel injection valve (12) is provided with at least two opposing disposed catch springs (14), which extend parallel to the axis of the fuel injection valve (12), each of said catch springs include faces oriented toward one another, each of said faces include corresponding grooves that form a transversely protruding locking protrusion (15) for grasping the locking collar (13) on the connection fitting (11) from behind, and said catch springs (14) including said locking protrusions (15) include a connection end and are injection molded in the form of spring legs (20) integrally with said housing (16) of the fuel injection valves (12).
