Abstract
A fuel injector, in particular a fuel injector for fuel-injection systems of internal combustion engines, has a piezoelectric or magnetostrictive actuator which actuates, via a hydraulic coupler a valve-closure member formed on a valve needle, the valve-closure member cooperating with a valve-seat surface to form a sealing seat. The coupler is made up of a pressure cylinder, a pressure-cylinder support joined to the pressure cylinder, and a pressure piston guided in this pressure cylinder, which form a pressure chamber; and of a coupler spring element between the pressure piston and the pressure cylinder which generates a prestressing force that forces the pressure piston out of the pressure cylinder.
