Abstract
A fuel injection valve for use in fuel injection systems of compressed-mixture, externally ignited internal combustion engines has a core provided with a wear-resistant layer that has a greater layer thickness than a layer thickness of a wear-resistant layer of an armature facing the core. This greater layer thickness is present at least in an immediate contact area between the core and the armature.
Claims6
An electromagnetically actuated fuel injection valve for a fuel injection system of an internal combustion engine, comprising:
- a magnetic coil;
- a core made of ferromagnetic material and surrounded by the magnetic coil with respect to a longitudinal axis of the core;
- and
- an armature aligned with respect to the core, the armature being axially movable along the longitudinal axis to cause a valve closing body to move out of a contacting relationship with respect to a fixed valve seat when a contact surface of the armature is attracted to an immediate contact area of a contact surface of the core in response to an energization of the magnetic coil, wherein:
- the contact surface of the armature is provided with a first wear-resistant layer, and
- the contact surface of the core is provided with a second wear-resistant layer facing the first wear-resistant layer, the second wear-resistant layer having a layer thickness that is greater, at least in the immediate contact area, than a layer thickness of the first wear-resistant layer.
