Fuel injector
A fuel injector, including a valve insert and a plug extrusion coating, is described, the valve insert including a valve sear and a valve housing. The valve housing has an alignment device, which is equipped to align the valve insert in an injection molding die, and the plastic extrusion coating has a second alignment device which is equipped to align the fuel injector during assembly in an internal combustion engine.
1. A fuel injector, comprising:
a valve insert; and
a plug extrusion coating, wherein:
the valve insert includes a valve seat and a valve housing,
the valve housing includes a first alignment device equipped to align the valve insert in an injection molding die, and
the plastic extrusion coating includes a second alignment device equipped to align the fuel injector while the fuel injector is being assembled in an internal combustion engine,
wherein for assembly of the fuel injector in the internal combustion engine, only an alignment of the second alignment device is necessary,
wherein the second alignment device is provided on the plastic extrusion coating and protrudes during assembly from a cylinder head,
wherein, based on the alignment of the valve insert in the injection molding die, a jet path of the fuel injector is aligned, relative to the second alignment device for aligning on the plastic extrusion coating.
2. The fuel injector as recited in claim 1 , wherein the first alignment device is situated at an end region of the valve insert adjacent to the valve seat.
3. The fuel injector as recited in claim 1 , wherein the first alignment device includes at least one first area and one second area.
4. The fuel injector as recited in claim 3 , wherein the first area is situated in parallel to the second area.
5. The fuel injector as recited in claim 3 , wherein the first area is situated at an angle to the second area.
6. The fuel injector as recited in claim 5 , wherein the first area and the second area have a transition edge between them.
7. The fuel injector as recited in claim 1 , wherein the second alignment device includes an area.
