Abstract

A pressure reserve for a common rail fuel supply system has outlet connections communicating with injection valves. The outlet connections are disposed in end pieces connected to an elongated hollow body. This disposition of the outlet connections assures that pressure surges that occur in the pressure reservoir have only a very slight influence on the injection events. In addition, economical production of the pressure reservoir is possible.
