Abstract
A drive circuit for an electrostrictive element actuator for a fuel injection apparatus of a diesel engine. The drive circuit has a condenser adapted to be charged with electric charges generated by the electrostrictive element actuator; a combination of an electric charge transferring switching element and a rectifier element for becoming conductive in a first period and charging electric charges generated by the electrostrictive element actuator to the condenser; and a combination of an electric charge returning switching element and a rectifier element for becoming conductive in a second period, other than the first period, and returning electric charges stored in the condenser to the electrostrictive element actuator.
