US 7,063,279 B2 · Fuel injection valve

Abstract

A fuel injection valve comprises a body, a valve member, a coil, a movable core, a fixed core, and a housing member. The body has a nozzle hole. The valve member allows injection of fuel from the nozzle hole. The coil generates a magnetic field. The movable core axially reciprocates with the valve member. The fixed core is provided adjacent to a side of the movable core that is opposite the nozzle hole. The fixed core attracts the movable core and moves with the valve member due to the magnetic field generated from the coil. The housing member has a first axial end fixed to the body. The housing member covers the coil and forms a magnetic circuit together with the body, the movable core, and the fixed core due to the magnetic field generated by the coil.

Dependent claims

A fuel injection valve comprising:

a body having a nozzle hole;
a valve member for selectively enabling fuel to inject through the nozzle hole;
a coil for generating a magnetic field;
a movable core axially reciprocating with the valve member;
a fixed core provided adjacent to a side of the movable core that is opposite to the nozzle hole, the fixed core and the movable core being attracted to each other and moving with the valve member due to the magnetic field generated from the coil;
and
a housing member having a first end fixed to the body and a second end axially movable relative to the fixed core, the housing member covering the coil and forming a magnetic circuit together with the body, the movable core, and the fixed core upon the magnetic field being generated by the coil.
