Abstract

In an electromagnetic fuel injection valve which is configured to absorb an unbalanced load applied to sliding portions between a fixed core and a valve stem, thereby enabling a reduction in a frictional resistance of the sliding portions, a guide bush is press fitted in an inner peripheral surface of the fixed core, the valve element includes a valve part configured to cooperate with the valve seat, and the valve stem continuously provided to the valve part and extending toward the guide bush, a sliding member configured to be slidably fitted to an inner peripheral surface of the guide bush is press fitted on the valve stem, wherein an annular gap is provided at least at one of a location between the fixed core and the guide bush and a location between the valve stem and the sliding member, within sliding regions of the guide bush and the sliding member.

Claims (16)

1. An electromagnetic fuel injection valve comprising:

a valve housing having a valve seat at a front end thereof;

a hollow fixed core continuously provided to a rear end of the valve housing;

a movable core disposed opposite to an attraction surface of the fixed core;

a coil disposed on an outer periphery of the fixed core;

a valve element connected to the movable core to cooperate with the valve seat; and

a valve spring configured to bias the valve element in a valve closing direction, wherein

the movable core is caused to be attracted to the fixed core by energizing the coil so as to open the valve element,

a guide bush is press fitted in an inner peripheral surface of the fixed core,

the valve element includes:

a valve part configured to cooperate with the valve seat; and

a valve stem continuously provided to the valve part and extending toward the guide bush,

a sliding member configured to be slidably fitted to an inner peripheral surface of the guide bush is press fitted on the valve stem, wherein

an annular gap is provided at least at one of a location between the fixed core and the guide bush and a location between the valve stem and the sliding member, within sliding regions of the guide bush and the sliding member.

2. The electromagnetic fuel injection valve according to claim 1 , wherein the annular gap is provided at each of the location between the fixed core and the guide bush and the location between the valve stem and the sliding member, within the sliding regions of the guide bush and the sliding member.

3. The electromagnetic fuel injection valve according to claim 2 , wherein an outer peripheral surface of the sliding member is provided with a cutout configured to make a hollow portion of the fixed core communicate with an inside of the valve housing.
