A fuel injector, in particular a high pressure injector for direct injection of fuel into a combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine having externally supplied ignition and mixture compression, is characterized in that a valve needle, which is movable axially along a longitudinal axis of the valve, has a specially designed valve closing section on its downstream end. To open and close the valve, the valve closing section works together with a fixed valve seat. Swirl-producing elements are arranged upstream from the valve seat while a flattened face running perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the valve is provided on the downstream end of the valve closing section downstream from the valve seat.

Fuel injection valve

A fuel injector that has a valve needle that can be moved axially within a swirl insert and which has, among other things, a valve closing section that works in conjunction with a valve seat. The swirl insert, which has an inner longitudinal opening for the valve needle, has a swirl area having on its downstream end an arrangement for imparting a swirl. The arrangement for imparting swirl are designed in the form of swirl grooves which extend from the conical outer edge to the longitudinal opening and which open out to the lower end face of the swirl insert. The fuel injector is particularly suitable for use in fuel injection systems of internal combustion engines having fuel-air mixture compression and spark ignition

A fuel injector, in particular a high-pressure injector for directly injecting fuel into a combustion chamber of a mixture-compression, spark-ignition internal combustion engine, which is characterized by the fact that at a valve seat element a conical section is formed having a valve seat surface, to which an outlet opening is immediately joined in the downstream direction. The outlet opening has an intake plane, whose central point lies on the valve longitudinal axis, whose central axis, however, runs diagonally with respect to valve longitudinal axis. A disk-shaped swirl element is arranged upstream of the valve seat element. The swirl element has swirl channels, which are distributed over the periphery, the swirl channels having varying geometries or dimensions.
