Abstract
An electromagnetic valve opens and closes a fuel return passage (23, 24) of a fuel injection pump, to control a time of fuel return when fuel compressed by a plunger (12) of the fuel injection pump is overflowed from a high-pressure fuel chamber (19) to a low-pressure fuel chamber (11). A valve needle (36) causes a reciprocative movement in an axial direction thereof to open or close the fuel return passage (23, 24). A terminal (46), supplying electric current to the electromagnetic valve, is disposed along the axial direction of the valve needle (36). A plate-like armature (43), connected to one end of the valve needle (36), has a through hole (43a) allowing the terminal (46) to enter therein and causing a reciprocative movement together with the valve needle (36). The outer periphery of the armature (43) extends radially further than the terminal (46). A coil (44), connected to the terminal (46), is disposed in confronting relation to a side surface of the armature (43) located adjacent to the valve needle (36).
