A fuel injection valve for internal combustion engines, having a pistonlike valve member, axially movable counter to the closing force of a spring, in the bore of a valve body and that controls at least one injection opening. A control chamber surrounding the valve member is disposed between a guided portion of the valve member and an oil leakage chamber that receives the spring; the valve member communicates with an inlet conduit via a throttling annular gap and with the oil leakage chamber via a control bore. In the closing motion of the valve member away from the valve seat, fuel is positively displaced out of the control chamber into the oil leakage chamber by a pressure face. In a portion of the valve member stroke, the control chamber is closed, except for a throttle gap formed between a cylindrical portion and the control bore, toward the oil leakage chamber, and the fuel pressure in the control chamber rises, since the outflow can now take place only via the throttle gap. As a result, the seating of the valve sealing face on the valve seat is damped, leading to reduced running noise of the engine and reduced wear in the region of the valve sealing face.
In a fuel injection valve for internal combustion engines, having a bore (5) embodied in the valve body (1), in which bore a pistonlike valve member (4) is disposed that is axially movable counter to the closing force of a spring (21) and that on its end toward the combustion chamber controls at least one injection opening (8) and that has a portion (4b) toward the combustion chamber, which portion is disposed in an annular conduit (3, 18) filled with fuel at high pressure, and on which portion (4b) of the valve member (4) a pressure face (9) is embodied, and the pressure of the fuel acts on the pressure face (9) counter to the closing force of the spring (21), wherein the valve member (4) has a second pressure face (12, 122), by which a control chamber (10) surrounding the valve member (4) can be defined, so that upon the closing motion of the valve member (4) the volume of the control chamber (10) can be decreased, and the control chamber (10) is in constant communication, via a throttle gap (16), with the annular conduit (3, 18) and a further communication with an oil leakage chamber (20), which beyond a certain stroke of the closing motion of the valve member (4) is throttled via an annular gap (15, 115) which is formed between a control bore (40), disposed between the control chamber (10) and the oil leakage chamber (20), and a control piston (11, 111) of the valve member (4), the control piston plunging into the control bore (40) upon closure.
