Abstract
A pressure control valve for a high-pressure diesel pump of an injection device of a motor vehicle has a valve body and a piezo drive with a tappet securing the valve body in a closed position. The valve body in the closed position closes off a bore, containing a medium under pressure, relative to a pressure-relief bore. The piezo drive has at least one piezo element connected to the tappet. The piezo drive is mounted in a pump housing of the high-pressure diesel pump. A screw element receives the piezo drive and is used to screw the piezo drive into the mounting chamber of the pump housing.
