Abstract
A liquefied gas fuel is supplied to a fuel gallery of a high-pressure pump through a feed pipe. A fuel injection apparatus includes a passage expansion pipe of which passage area is greater than that of the fuel gallery. The passage expansion pipe is arranged between the feed pipe and the fuel gallery. When the fuel is supplied to the fuel gallery during a suction stroke of a plunger, the passage expansion pipe functions as an accumulator accumulating the fuel therein. The replenishing fuel from the passage expansion pipe is added to the fuel supplied from the feed pump. A pressure drop in the fuel gallery becomes small, so that the pressure pulsation in the fuel gallery is reduced.
