Electromagnetic fuel injection valve and process for producing the same
View Patent ↗In an electromagnetic fuel injection valve designed so that the contact of a movable attraction face at a rear end of a movable core with a stationary attraction face included at a front end of a stationary core is inhibited, a ring-shaped stopper ( 28 ) made of a material non-magnetic or magnetic weakly more than a movable core ( 18 ) is press-fitted into an inner periphery of a rear portion of the movable core ( 18 ), and a flat abutment face ( 51 ), which is disposed at a location displaced from a flat movable attraction face ( 41 ) formed at the rear end of the movable core ( 18 ) toward a stationary attraction face ( 42 ), is formed at a rear end of the stopper ( 28 ) to be able to abut against the stationary attraction face. A slant ( 52 ) is formed on an inner periphery of the rear end of the movable core ( 18 ) and an outer periphery of the rear end of the stopper ( 28 ) to continuously and smoothly connect the movable attraction face ( 41 ) and the abutment face ( 51 ) to each other. Thus, the accumulation and deposition of chips and a magnetic powder can be prevented, and the area of application of an electromagnetic attraction force to the movable core can be increased substantially, while decreasing the number of parts and the number of assembling steps to provide a reduction in cost.
1. An electromagnetic fuel injection valve comprising a valve member which is contained in a valve housing having a valve seat at a front end thereof and is spring-biased in a direction in which said valve member is seated on said valve seat, a cylindrical movable core having a movable attraction face at a rear end thereof and coaxially connected to said valve member, a stationary core having at a front end thereof a stationary attraction face opposed to said movable attraction face, and a coil assembly for exhibiting an electromagnetic force for attracting said movable core toward said stationary core, so that the contact of said movable attraction face with said stationary attraction face is inhibited, characterized in that a ring-shaped stopper made of a material non-magnetic or magnetic weakly more than said movable core is press-fitted into an inner periphery of the rear portion of said movable core; a flat abutment face, which is disposed at a location displaced from the flat movable attraction face formed at the rear end of said movable core toward the stationary attraction face, is formed at a rear end of said stopper to be able to abut against said stationary attraction face; and a slant is formed on an inner periphery of the rear end of said movable core and an outer periphery of the rear end of said stopper to continuously and smoothly connect said movable attraction face and said abutment face to each other.
2. A process for producing an electromagnetic fuel injection valve according to claim 1 , comprising a step of preparing a cylindrical movable core blank and a ring-shaped stopper blank, for forming said movable core and said stopper, respectively; a step of press-fitting a front portion of said stopper blank into said movable core blank and fixing said stopper blank to said movable core blank; and a step of grinding rear portions of said stopper blank and said movable core blank to form said movable attraction face, said abutment face and said slant, the above steps being carried out sequentially.
