HIGH FLOW OUTWARD OPENING GASEOUS INJECTOR FOR AUTOMOTIVE APPLICATIONS

摘要

An injector (10) includes a valve body (16) having an interior portion (18) and a seat (32). An armature tube (20) is in the interior portion. A spring (28) biases a valve member (24) into engagement with the seat. A movable armature (40) is coupled to the armature tube. A calibration member (36) is engaged with the valve member and engaged with the spring. A stator (52) is coupled to an inlet tube (41) and has an end surface spaced from an end surface of the armature in the closed position of the injector, thereby defining an air gap (54) between the end surfaces. A coil (56) is disposed about a portion of the inlet tube. A housing (64) surrounds at least a portion of the coil. Magnetic flux causes the armature and armature tube to push the valve member off the seat.
