Stator for electronic fuel injector

摘要

A stator assembly for a fuel valve comprising a magnetic E-core of stacked E-shaped laminations, a plastic bobbin proportioned to surround a central leg of the core, a magnetic wire coil on the bobbin, a non-magnetic metal plate having an O-shaped profile adjacent an end of the bobbin and distal ends of central and outer legs of the E-core, the core, bobbin, coil and plate encapsulated in a block, the block having a pair of vent channels overlying portions of the plate disposed between the outer core legs and the central core leg, the plate being proportioned to pre-stress the outer core legs outwardly prior to encapsulation whereby cyclic strain on the block due to hydraulic forces imposed by high pressure fuel pulses tending to spread the outer core legs is reduced and resistance of the block to cracking due to said fuel pressure pulses is increased.

1. A stator assembly for controlling fuel delivery to a diesel engine comprising a magnetic E-core of stacked E-shaped laminations, a plastic bobbin proportioned to surround a central leg of the core, a coil of magnetic wire wound on the bobbin, a non-magnetic metal wedging plate having an O-shaped profile adjacent an end of the bobbin and distal ends of central and outer legs of the E-core, bobbin, coil and plate being encapsulated in a monolithic block of thermosetting plastic, the block having a pair of vent channels overlying portions of the plate disposed between the outer core legs and the central core leg, the plate being proportioned to pre-stress the outer core legs outwardly prior to encapsulation by said thermosetting plastic whereby cyclic strain on the block due to hydraulic forces imposed by high pressure fuel pulses tending to spread the outer core legs is reduced and resistance of the block to cracking due to said fuel pressure pulses is increased and the service life of the stator assembly is extended, said metal wedging plate being a unitary sheet metal stamping and being characterized by die roll round-over edges as a result of the stamping formation, said round-over edges facing in a direction towards the bobbin.
