Fuel injection valve for internal combustion engines

A fuel injection valve for intermittent injection of fuel into a combustion space of an internal combustion engine, comprising:

• a housing;
• a valve seat element provided with injection orifices;
• an injection valve member guided so as to be longitudinally displaceable in the housing in respective closing and opening directions for closing and opening the injection orifices, the injection valve member being subjected in the opening direction to a fuel pressure from a high-pressure fuel supply conduit;
• a control device for controlling the movement of the injection valve member, the control device having a control piston which is guided so as to be longitudinally displaceable, the control piston being subjected on a first side to a fuel control pressure in a control space within the control device and which is connected to the high-pressure fuel supply conduit via at least one inlet orifice;
• an electrically actuable pilot valve for opening and closing at least one outlet orifice opening into the control space for the purpose of controlling the control pressure in the control space;
• an intermediate element which is guided so as to be longitudinally displaceable and via which the control piston is operatively connected to the injection valve member on a second side located opposite the first side;
• and
• a spring element which is supported at a first end fixedly relative to the housing, the spring having a second end acting on a side of the intermediate element facing away from the injection valve member.
