Fuel Injector Retention Arrangement - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240189853 titled 'Fuel Injector Retention Arrangement

The fuel injector retention arrangement described in the patent application consists of a fuel injector receiving cup connected to a fuel rail, with connecting pins that secure the fuel injector in place.

  • The connecting pins are inserted into the receiving cup in a specific orientation, perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the cup.
  • The connecting pins are aligned with apertures in the receiving cup, ensuring a secure connection.
  • The apertures have a shoulder that acts as a stop for the connecting pins, preventing them from coming out.
  • Service openings in the apertures allow for easy access to the connecting pins for maintenance or replacement.

Potential Applications: - Automotive industry for fuel injection systems - Aerospace industry for aircraft fuel systems - Industrial machinery for efficient fuel delivery systems

Problems Solved: - Secure attachment of fuel injectors to fuel rails - Easy access for maintenance or replacement of fuel injectors - Ensuring proper alignment and connection of fuel injector components

Benefits: - Improved reliability of fuel injection systems - Simplified maintenance procedures - Enhanced performance and efficiency of fuel delivery

Commercial Applications: Title: Advanced Fuel Injector Retention System for Enhanced Performance This technology can be utilized in automotive, aerospace, and industrial applications to improve fuel delivery systems, leading to increased efficiency and performance.

Original Abstract Submitted

a fuel injector retention arrangement for connecting a fuel injector with a fuel rail comprises a fuel injector receiving cup having a fuel rail end in connection with a fuel rail and a fuel injector insertion end into which a fuel injector is insertable and connecting pins, the connecting pins being insertable into the receiving cup in such a manner, that a longitudinal axis of the connecting pins is situated in a first plane, which is oriented perpendicularly to a longitudinal axis of the receiving cup. the connecting pins are arranged in apertures of the receiving cup. a longitudinal axis of the apertures and the longitudinal axis of the connecting pins are aligned with each other. the apertures have an insertion end into which the connecting pins are insertable and a shoulder forming an axial stop for the connecting pins at a second end of the apertures. the apertures have a service opening which is arranged between the shoulder of the apertures and an outside surface of the receiving cup. the service openings are defined by a first side surface radially extending away from the second end of the first aperture and the longitudinal axis of the apertures, a second side surface extending along the longitudinal axis of the first aperture and away from the first aperture, and a third side surface and a fourth side surface. the first side surface and second side surface extend between the third side surface and fourth side surface.
