Abstract
A dual-function clamping assembly adapted for i) connecting a hydraulically-actuated injector to an engine member, such as a cylinder head, and ii) for sealedly connecting an actuating fluid supply passage between the engine member and an actuating fluid inlet passage of the injector located at one end portion of the injector. The clamp assembly is applicable, for example, for angled-body injectors having the actuator and valve assembly positioned offset from and angled relative to the main longitudinal axis of the injector body.
