Abstract
A method and an apparatus for edge shaping in a high-pressure fuel reservoir which has an elongated tubular casing element equipped in the longitudinal direction with a continuous recess which forms the interior space of the high-pressure fuel reservoir and is open at at least one end, the recess opening into at least one passthrough orifice, that together with the continuous recess forms a peripheral edge. An elongated actuation element, whose end inserted into the continuous recess is equipped with a surface segment inclined with respect to the longitudinal axis of the continuous recess, is inserted into the continuous recess, the surface segment acting at least indirectly on a pressure element introduced into the continuous recess so that a surface portion of the pressure element is pressed against the peripheral edge, and a smoothing of the edge contour is achieved because of a material displacement in the region of the edge.
