Abstract
A fuel injector includes a housing extending along an injector axis. A pintle has an axially extending pintle shaft and a radially projecting annular collar with a collar surface, the pintle being axially moveable between an open position and a closed position. An armature is axially guided in the housing between a proximal position and a distal position, the armature having an axial through-hole in which the pintle shaft is guided and an armature surface which engages the collar surface, thereby moving the pintle into the open position when the armature moves to the proximal position. A first resilient member biases the pintle in the distal direction and a second resilient member biases the armature in the distal direction. The armature surface and the collar surface are slanted with respect to the injector axis and one of the armature surface and the collar surface is convex curved.
