Abstract
The fuel injection device has a high-pressure pump that supplies highly pressurized fuel to at least one high-pressure reservoir connected to injectors disposed in cylinders of an engine, wherein the injectors are connected to a common low-pressure reservoir. A pressure holding valve maintains a predetermined low pressure in the low-pressure reservoir. A pressure regulating valve regulates the pressure in the high-pressure reservoir by diverting fuel from the at least one high-pressure reservoir through a diversion connection into a low-pressure region. The diversion connection of the pressure regulating valve is connected to the low-pressure reservoir so that the low-pressure reservoir is filled with fuel.
