Abstract

Abstract Means for attaching an elongated injection nozzle to a cylinder head of an injection-internal combustion engine, which head includes means presenting a nozzle receiving bore in a surface thereof, the attachment means comprising, means in the cylinder head presenting a threaded guide hole disposed adjacent the nozzle receiving bore and extending generally in the same direction as the bore, abutment means on the injection nozzle including a surface extending transversely of the longitudinal axis of the nozzle and facing away from the cylinder head, elongated clamp means having a member at one end disposed in contact with the nozzle surface facing away from the cylinder head and collar means at the other end presenting an opening disposed in alignment with the guide hole, the collar means including an element that is elongated in the direction of the guide hole and extends into the latter, the element and guide hole cooperating to limit movement of the clamp means in directions other than parallel to the guide hole, and screw means extending through the collar means and into threaded engagement with the threads of the guide hole for forcing the member of the clamp means and thereby the injection nozzle toward the cylinder head.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim 199 words
Means for attaching an elongated injection nozzle to a cylinder head of an injection-internal combustion engine, which head includes means presenting a nozzle receiving bore in a surface thereof, said attachment means comprising: means in said head presenting a guide hole disposed adjacent said bore and extending generally in the same direction as said bore, and a threaded bore at the end of said guide hole; abutment means on said nozzle including a surface extending transversely of the longitudinal axis of the nozzle and facing away from said head; elongated clamp means having a member at one end disposed in contact with said surface and collar means at the other end presenting an opening disposed in alignment with said guide hole; said collar means integrally including a sleeve-like element elongated in the direction of said guide hole and extending into the latter, said element and said guide hole cooperating to limit movement of said clamp means in directions other than parallel to said guide hole; and screw means extending through said sleeve-like element and into threaded engagement with the threads of said threaded bore for forcing the member of the clamp means, and thereby said nozzle, toward said head.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 199 words
Means for attaching an elongated injection nozzle to a cylinder head of an injection-internal combustion engine, which head includes means presenting a nozzle receiving bore in a surface thereof, said attachment means comprising: means in said head presenting a guide hole disposed adjacent said bore and extending generally in the same direction as said bore, and a threaded bore at the end of said guide hole; abutment means on said nozzle including a surface extending transversely of the longitudinal axis of the nozzle and facing away from said head; elongated clamp means having a member at one end disposed in contact with said surface and collar means at the other end presenting an opening disposed in alignment with said guide hole; said collar means integrally including a sleeve-like element elongated in the direction of said guide hole and extending into the latter, said element and said guide hole cooperating to limit movement of said clamp means in directions other than parallel to said guide hole; and screw means extending through said sleeve-like element and into threaded engagement with the threads of said threaded bore for forcing the member of the clamp means, and thereby said nozzle, toward said head.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 49 words
The invention of claim 1, wherein the elongated clamp means comprises a forked pressure piece having spaced opposing cams, said abutment means comprising a pair of recesses disposed on respective opposite sides of said nozzle, each cam being disposed in contacting relationship with a respective one of said recesses.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 42 words
The invention of claim 2, wherein said nozzle comprises a screw cap at its outer end connecting an injection pipe to the nozzle, said screw cap having an upper surface presenting said abutment means which is engaged by said forked pressure piece.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 16 words
The invention of claim 1, wherein said bore and said hole are disposed in substantial parallelism.
