Fuel injection valve
View Patent ↗A fuel injection valve that injects fuel directly into a cylinder of an internal combustion engine includes: a nozzle inserted into a fuel injection valve fitting hole formed in the cylinder; a cylindrical tip seal holder attached to the nozzle; and an annular seal member that is fitted to the tip seal holder and seals between an inner circumferential surface of the fuel injection valve fitting hole and an outer circumferential surface of the tip seal holder.
1. A fuel injection valve that injects fuel directly into a cylinder of an internal combustion engine, comprising:
a nozzle inserted into a fuel injection valve fitting hole formed in the cylinder;
a cylindrical tip seal holder attached to the nozzle; and
an annular seal member that is fitted to the cylindrical tip seal holder and that seals between an inner circumferential surface of the fuel injection valve fitting hole and an outer circumferential surface of the cylindrical tip seal holder, wherein
an insertion groove for a signal line is formed on an inner circumferential surface of the cylindrical tip seal holder along a central axis of the cylindrical tip seal holder, and
the signal line passes through an inner diameter side of the annular seal member.
2. The fuel injection valve according to claim 1 , wherein:
a stepped part to which one end of the cylindrical tip seal holder engages is provided on the nozzle,
the nozzle forms a large outer diameter part, a small outer diameter part, and the stepped part, which is formed between the large outer diameter part and the small outer diameter part,
the cylindrical tip seal holder is inserted around the small outer diameter part, and
one end of the cylindrical tip seal holder engages with the stepped part.
3. The fuel injection valve according to claim 1 , wherein:
a groove into which the annular seal member is set is formed on the outer circumferential surface of the cylindrical tip seal holder, around its circumferential direction.
4. The fuel injection valve according to claim 2 , wherein:
a groove into which the annular seal member is set is formed on the outer circumferential surface of the cylindrical tip seal holder, around its circumferential direction.
5. The fuel injection valve according to claim 1 , wherein:
the cylindrical tip seal holder is laser welded in a predetermined position.
6. The fuel injection valve according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a pressure sensor that is provided at a cylinder-side end of the fuel injection valve.
7. The fuel injection valve according to claim 6 , wherein
one end of the groove is closed with the pressure sensor.
