Abstract

Abstract A petrol injection system for a spark ignition engine includes a plurality of injectors which are mounted on the air inlet manifold of the engine. The injectors have housings (19) of hollow rectangular shape which accommodate electrical connections (18) for the control windings. Plugs (22) forming part of a wiring harness are engaged within the housings and the plugs are moulded integrally with a cover (24) which serves to locate the injectors in the correct angular relationship.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 163 words
A fuel injection system for a spark ignition internal combustion engine, the system comprising a plurality of electromagnetically operated fuel injectors (20) which are mounted in use, on the air inlet manifold of the engine to difect fuel into the air inlet ducts of the engine, each injector being of generally cylindrical form having a fuel inlet (11) at one end and an outlet (12) at the other end, each injector also having a housing (19) which accommodates at least one electrical contact (18), and the housing being disposed at a position offset from the longitudinal axis of the injector characterised in that the system further includes a wiring harness (21) including plugs (22) engageable in said housings (19) respectively to effect electrical connection with the contacts (18) therein and a cover (24) for said harness, said cover being of a semi-rigid nature and defining hollow portions (25, 28) which engage about said housing (19) to locate the injectors about their longitudinal axes.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 163 words
A fuel injection system for a spark ignition internal combustion engine, the system comprising a plurality of electromagnetically operated fuel injectors (20) which are mounted in use, on the air inlet manifold of the engine to difect fuel into the air inlet ducts of the engine, each injector being of generally cylindrical form having a fuel inlet (11) at one end and an outlet (12) at the other end, each injector also having a housing (19) which accommodates at least one electrical contact (18), and the housing being disposed at a position offset from the longitudinal axis of the injector characterised in that the system further includes a wiring harness (21) including plugs (22) engageable in said housings (19) respectively to effect electrical connection with the contacts (18) therein and a cover (24) for said harness, said cover being of a semi-rigid nature and defining hollow portions (25, 28) which engage about said housing (19) to locate the injectors about their longitudinal axes.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 19 words
An injection system according to Claim 1 characterised in that said plugs (22) are moulded into said cover (24).
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 51 words
An injection system according to Claim 1 characterised in that said plugs (22) include hollow portions (27) which engage about the housings (19), said cover (26) defining further hollow portions (28) which engage about the hollow portions (27) of the plugs to provide the desired angular location of the injectors (20).
