Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0202926A1] A fuel-injection system for internal combustion engines feeds fuel from a high-pressure fuel source (1) via a control valve (6) that is actuated by a piezoelectric unit (9) to an injection orifice (7). The control valve (6) has a valve member (8), which can be axially displaced between a first valve seat (13) and a second valve seat (14), said seats delimiting a first valve chamber (15). A conduit (5) originating from the high-pressure fuel source (1) opens into a second valve chamber (16), which is delimited by the first valve seat (13) and a first guide element (18) of the valve member (8) in the valve body (10). A conduit (2) branches from the first valve chamber (15) towards the injection orifice (7). A second guide element (28) of the valve member (8) is provided in an area of the latter that adjoins the second valve seat (14). One respective leakage conduit (21, 30) is provided on each side of the guide elements (18, 28). The diameters of the respective valve seats (13, 14) and the guide elements (18, 28) are identical, thus producing an equalization of forces in the control valve (6).
