Abstract

The invention relates to a cooling element (38; 40) for an injection valve (1; 41), in particular for injecting a liquid reduction agent into an exhaust train of a combustion engine, having a hollow region for receiving a section of the injection valve (1; 41) and a cooling plate (8) which is circumferential around the hollow region and a face plate (7) arranged on a face of the injection valve (1; 41) which has at least one injection opening (13), which enables the spraying of liquid out of the injection valve (1; 41) through the face plate (7). The face plate (7) has at least one bowl-shaped region (7a) formed having a front wall and at least one side wall which is designed to receive an injection-side section (1a; 41a) of the injection valve (1; 41), and the cooling plate (8) and the face plate (7) are connected to each other in a liquid-tight manner such that, in a state in which a section of an injection valve (1; 41) is properly arranged in the hollow region, a cooling volume (36) circulating around the section of the injection valve (1; 41) is delimited by the face plate (7), the cooling plate (8) and the injection valve (1; 41).
