Abstract
A high flow rate electromagnetic injector valve with a rapid response time is disclosed for utilization in a single point fuel injection system. Centrally bored end caps are fixed at the front and rear ends of a tubular injector body and a coil wound on a bobbin is disposed inside the body chamber between the end caps. The front end cap receives within its bore a valve assembly including a valve housing and a needle valve with attached armature reciprocally movable against a valve seat to obturate a metering orifice in the valve housing. The valve housing contains fuel inlets for the pressurized entry of fuel into the injector and the needle valve is ported to provide fluid communication to the armature to relieve pressure build-up. The rear end cap mounts within its bore a core member acting as a stator which extends through a central bobbin bore to form a controllable air gap adjacent the armature: the core member further contains internally an adjustment screw and ball member. The ball member and adjustment screw cooperate with a recessed closure spring positioned substantially within the armature to controllably bias the needle valve against the valve seat. Because of its reces…
