Abstract

Abstract A fuel injector assembly in an engine having a plurality of cylinders and intake passages opening respectively into the cylinders includes a housing mounted in each of the intake passages, and a plurality of solenoid-operated fuel injection valves connected to a fuel supply source for injecting fuel through the intake passage into each of the cylinders. The solenoid-operated fuel injection valves are accommodated in the housing. The housing has a magnetic shield layer such as an air gap disposed between the fuel injection valve means. The fuel injection valves are supplied with fuel from the fuel supply source through a common fuel supply passage defined in the housing.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 134 words
A fuel injection assembly in an engine having a plurality of cylinders and intake passages opening respectively to the cylinders, comprising: a single injection body mounted in each of said intake passages; a pair of solenoid-operated fuel injection valve means connected to a fuel supply source for injecting fuel through the intake passage into each of the cylinders; and said pair of solenoid-operated fuel injection valve means being accommodated in said injection body and each having a hole defined in said injection body, a needle valve axially movably disposed in said hole, and a solenoid for axially moving said needle valve in said hole, said single injection body having a magnetic shield layer between said fuel injection valve means, said magnetic shield layer having a width not less than the width of said solenoids.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 134 words
A fuel injection assembly in an engine having a plurality of cylinders and intake passages opening respectively to the cylinders, comprising: a single injection body mounted in each of said intake passages; a pair of solenoid-operated fuel injection valve means connected to a fuel supply source for injecting fuel through the intake passage into each of the cylinders; and said pair of solenoid-operated fuel injection valve means being accommodated in said injection body and each having a hole defined in said injection body, a needle valve axially movably disposed in said hole, and a solenoid for axially moving said needle valve in said hole, said single injection body having a magnetic shield layer between said fuel injection valve means, said magnetic shield layer having a width not less than the width of said solenoids.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 46 words
A fuel injection assembly according to claim 1, wherein each of said intake passages comprises an inlet passage and first and second branch passages branched from said inlet passage, further including a shutter valve for opening and closing one of said first and second branch passages.
