Method for making a through opening in a high-pressure fuel reservoir, and apparatus for performing the method
First Claim
1. A method for making a through opening in a high-pressure fuel reservoir that has an elongated, tubular jacket body (1), which body is provided in the longitudinal direction with a continuous recess (2), open on at least one side, that forms the interior of the high-pressure fuel reservoir, and the through opening (5) is made in the jacket body (1) in the form of a bore by a machining tool in such a way that this opening discharges into the continuous recess (2), the method comprising the steps of pressing a pressure part (13) against the inner wall (4) of the jacket body (1) in the region of the expected outlet of the through opening (5) before the through opening is made, then with the machine tool, drilling through the jacket body (1) some distance into the pressure part (13).

Abstract
A method for making a through opening in a high-pressure fuel reservoir that has an elongated, tubular jacket body, which body is provided in the longitudinal direction with a continuous recess, open on at least one end, that forms the interior of the high-pressure fuel reservoir, and the through opening is made in the jacket body in the form of a bore by a machining tool in such a way that this opening discharges into the continuous recess. In order to avoid burrs, before the through opening is made, a pressure part is pressed against the inner wall of the jacket body in the region of the expected outlet of the through opening, and with the machine an tool, drilling is done through the jacket body some distance into the pressure part.
