Abstract
Abstract An electromagnetically operable valve having a fuel inlet connecting piece which is surrounded by a magnet coil and is used as a core, at least a part of the valve is surrounded by a plastic sheath on which an electrical connecting plug is integrally formed. In the novel valve, the electrical connecting plug is injection molded at the same time as the extrusion coating of the magnet coil and thus forms an independent plastic injection molding. Only one valve extrusion coating tool is now required for different embodiments of the electrical connecting plug, resulting in greater flexibility in the assembly line. The valve is used as an injection valve for fuel injection systems.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 19
Claim 1
Independent Claim
251 words
An electromagnetically operable injection valve for fuel injection systems of internal-combustion engines, having a fuel inlet connecting piece which is surrounded by a magnet coil and is used as a core, an armature (12) by means of which a valve closing body (10) which interacts with a stationary valve seat (9) is operated, a tubular metallic intermediate part (6) which is closely connected at a first end of said tubular intermediate part to a second end of the core of the fuel inlet connecting piece facing the armature and a third end of said tubular intermediate part is connected to a tubular connecting part, a metallic valve seating body (8) which exhibits the stationary valve seat (9) and is attached to the connecting part at a fourth end of said connecting part facing away from the intermediate part, at least one guide element which is constructed as a clip, said clip is used as a ferromagnetic element, extends over an entire length of the magnet coil in the axial direction and at least partially surrounds the magnet coil in a circumferential direction, a plastic sheath (18) which surrounds at least a part of the valve and an electrical connecting plug (21), a plastic extrusion coating (7) surrounds the magnet coil (4) and at the same time forms said electrical connecting plug (21) so that the magnet coil (4) is assembled together with the connecting plug (21) within an independent plastic injection moulding which is surrounded supplementary by said plastic sheath (18).
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
251 words
An electromagnetically operable injection valve for fuel injection systems of internal-combustion engines, having a fuel inlet connecting piece which is surrounded by a magnet coil and is used as a core, an armature (12) by means of which a valve closing body (10) which interacts with a stationary valve seat (9) is operated, a tubular metallic intermediate part (6) which is closely connected at a first end of said tubular intermediate part to a second end of the core of the fuel inlet connecting piece facing the armature and a third end of said tubular intermediate part is connected to a tubular connecting part, a metallic valve seating body (8) which exhibits the stationary valve seat (9) and is attached to the connecting part at a fourth end of said connecting part facing away from the intermediate part, at least one guide element which is constructed as a clip, said clip is used as a ferromagnetic element, extends over an entire length of the magnet coil in the axial direction and at least partially surrounds the magnet coil in a circumferential direction, a plastic sheath (18) which surrounds at least a part of the valve and an electrical connecting plug (21), a plastic extrusion coating (7) surrounds the magnet coil (4) and at the same time forms said electrical connecting plug (21) so that the magnet coil (4) is assembled together with the connecting plug (21) within an independent plastic injection moulding which is surrounded supplementary by said plastic sheath (18).
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
66 words
