Fuel injector provided with a piezoelectric actuator, a valve activated by the piezoelectric actuator and regulating a fuel supply that flows in a working direction, and a mechanical transmission placed between the piezoelectric actuator and the valve; an expansion of the piezoelectric actuator displaces the valve in the working direction from a closed position to an open position in an opposite direction to that of the fuel outlet.

Fuel injector with piezoelectric actuator

A fuel injector having a piezoelectric actuator, which activates a shutter to move the shutter in a work direction between a closed position and an open position; the piezoelectric actuator is housed inside a casing having an inner chamber insulated from the fuel, and an outer surface wet by the fuel.
