Clamp element for securing fuel injection valve in engine block - has opening for insertion of fuel injection valve communicating with opening of reduced width for retention of inserted valve

摘要

The clamp element has a first opening (5) for reception of the fuel injection valve (1) and a second opening (7), communicating with the first opening and having a lesser width in at least one direction, for retaining the inserted fuel injection valve. The second opening may have an adjustment element (8,9)cooperating with a correspondingly shaped part of the fuel injection valve for determining the rotational position of the latter relative to its centre axis.
