Abstract

A fuel distributor for fuel injection systems of internal combustion engines having at least one fuel injection valve and at least one valve carrier which has a receiving bore for the fuel injection valve. The fuel injection valve includes an end flange surrounding the receiving bore on which flange the fuel injection valve is axially supported by means of a collar. The end flange of the valve carrier and the collar of the fuel injection valve are embodied as mutually corresponding parts of a bayonet mount, in order to provide positional fixation of the fuel injection valve independently of a plug hood to be mounted onto a protruding end of the fuel injection valve. The plug hood includes blocking tangs on an end face that form-fittingly engage recesses in the bayonet mount that serve the purpose of locking and unlocking the fuel injection valve.
