Abstract
A fuel injector comprising a piston actuated by a piezoelectric element. A pressure control chamber is formed between the piston and the top face of the needle and connected to a high pressure fuel source via a fuel passage having a restricted flow area. The pressure control chamber is filled with fuel under pressure. The rear face of the piston, which is positioned opposite to the pressure control chamber, is exposed to a high pressure fuel chamber filled with fuel under pressure. The driving force acting on the piston due to the pressure of fuel in the pressure control chamber is cancelled by the driving force acting on the piston due to the pressure of fuel in the high pressure fuel chamber.
