Air bypass apparatus in fuel injection apparatus

An air bypass apparatus in a fuel injection apparatus comprising:

• a valve body guide hole provided in an air control valve main body, in which an air control hole connected to an intake passage at a downstream side of a throttle valve is open at a side wall of the valve body guide hole, and an air inflow hole connected to the intake passage at an upstream side of the throttle valve is open at a lower side of the valve body guide hole;
• a slider screwed to an output shaft of a motor, in which a linear movement along a longitudinal axis of the valve body guide hole is allowed, and a rotation thereof is inhibited;
• and
• an air control valve formed in a closed-end tubular shape, in which an outer periphery in a tube portion of the air control valve is arranged on a side wall of the valve body guide hole with a gap, an inner periphery of a bottom portion of the air control valve is arranged on an outer periphery of a shaft portion of the slider with a gap, and an inner side of the tube portion is provided with a contracted spring, one end of which is locked to the slider and the other end of which is locked to the bottom portion, and the bottom portion of the air control valve is arranged so as to be pressed by a locking piece portion attached to the shaft portion of the slider,
• the opening of the air control hole being controlled by the air control valve moving in correspondence to the rotation of the motor,
• wherein a closing member closing an annular gap, which is formed between the inner periphery of the bottom portion of the air control valve and the outer periphery of the shaft portion of the slider, has an entire circumference of the closing member arranged in a contact manner on a lower end surface of the bottom portion of the air control valve for completely closing the annular gap.
