Abstract (en)

A fuel injection assembly is provided that comprises an elongate fuel injector (4) having a fuel inlet port and a fuel outlet port, an injector cup (2), and a holding component (8) for securing the fuel injector (4) in the injector cup (2). The injector cup (2) comprises a generally cylindrical body having a longitudinal axis L, an upper end adapted to be connected to a fuel rail mechanically and hydraulically, and a lower end, the injector cup (2) being open at its lower end to receive a fuel inlet port (10) of the fuel injector (4), wherein a slot (14) is formed in the peripheral wall of the injector cup (2) for receiving an engagement element (16) of the holding component (8). The holding component (8) further comprises two generally parallel supporting arms (18) adapted to engage opposite sides of the fuel injector (4). The two supporting arms (18) each have a resilient extension (20) to resiliently engage the lower end of the injector cup (2) on respective opposite sides of the fuel injector (4), each of the resilient extensions (20) engaging the injector cup (2) at at least two spaced points.
