Abstract
A coupling device for hydraulically and mechanically coupling an injection valve to a fuel rail of a combustion engine has a fuel injector cup with a central longitudinal axis, is hydraulically coupled to the fuel rail and in engagement with the injection valve. A first retaining element is fixedly coupled to the fuel injector cup, a second retaining element is fixedly coupled to the injection valve, the second retaining element being coupled to the first retaining element to prevent a movement of the second retaining element relative to the first retaining element in a first direction of the central longitudinal axis to retain the injection valve in the fuel injector cup, and an interface element which is operable to axially couple the injection valve with the second retaining element in a fixed way. Fuel injection arrangement with a coupling device and an injection valve which is coupled to the coupling device.
