Abstract
A known device for the atomization of liquids for injection valves including upper and lower fluid entry levels by which a tangential entry of air is provided into a space located below the injection valve in the direction of flow by which the generally occurring unevenness of distribution of fuel to different cylinders of an internal combustion engine is to be improved. The entry of the fluid from the upper and lower levels are oppositely oriented at the individual levels and thus produce two opposing swirl flows. The device is particularly suitable for injection valves for internal combustion engines.
