Electromagnetic fuel injection valve
First Claim
1. In an electromagnetic fuel injection valve for timed low-pressure fuel injection systems, which valve includes a coaxial assembly of a connection tube, a bushing, a housing extension and a fuel nozzle body, said assembly forming a substantially cylindrical passage for fuel to be delivered by said valve to an engine, the improvement comprising metallic seals between adjacent portions of said connection tube and said bushing, and between said bushing and said housing extension, said metallic seals having their surfaces in engagement with their corresponding adjacent elements under pressure, and a further metallic seal between said housing extension and said nozzle body, said further metallic seal being formed by parallel edges on said nozzle body which mate with an interior portion of said housing extension, and under external pressure embed themselves into the wall defining the interior portion of said housing extension.

Abstract
An electromagnetically actuated fuel injection valve includes a coaxial assembly of a connection tube, a bushing, a housing extension and a nozzle body. All seals between adjacent faces and edges of these elements are age-resistant metal-to-metal seals. The seal between the housing extension and the nozzle body is formed by pressing the overlapping end of the housing extension over annular edges on the nozzle body. The remaining seals are welds or solder-joints.
