Clip for injector to fuel supply assembly

摘要

The present invention provides an assembly having a fuel injector and a fuel supply device. The fuel injector has a first and second end, a fuel metering portion with a longitudinal axis extending therethrough, an outer shell surrounding the fuel metering portion and at least one fixing member that extends generally radially from the outer shell. The fixing member has a leg, where a portion of the leg is substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis. A cross member is located transverse to the portion of the leg and has a projection that has a substantially planar surface and extends toward the outer shell. The fuel supply device has a cup with an injector receiving opening and at least one connecting member with a mating surface adapted to engage the substantially planar surface of the fixing member. A method of connecting the fuel cup to the fuel injector and a method of disengaging the fuel cup from the fuel injector is also provided.
