Abstract:
A solenoid-type fuel injection valve comprising:a valve seat member having a valve seat and a valve bore provided through a center portion of said valve seat; a valve stem for opening and closing said valve bore by cooperation with said valve seat; an injector plate coupled to an outer end face of said valve seat member and having a plurality of fuel injection bores disposed around an axis of said valve bore; and a fuel diffusion chamber which is defined between said valve seat member and said injector plate so as to have a diameter larger than that of said valve bore and which is faced by said valve bore and all of said fuel injection bores, said plurality of fuel injection bores being all located radially outside of said valve bore and being parted on a plane including the axis of said valve bore into a primary group of fuel injection bores and a secondary group of fuel injection bores for injecting fuel toward a pair of primary and secondary intake ports, respectively, wherein the fuel injection bores of the primary group are formed so that they are inclined to a side opposite and away from the axis of said valve bore only in a direction X toward a downstream side, and the fuel injection bores of the secondary group are formed so that they are inclined to a side opposite and away from the axis of said valve bore only in said direction X toward the downstream side, wherein said direction X represents a direction of arrangement of said primary and secondary ports in the internal combustion engine, and a direction Y represents a direction perpendicular to said direction of arrangement, and wherein the fuel injection bores of the primary group are sub-classified into a primary inner group of fuel injection bores, and a primary outer group of fuel injection bores disposed on opposite sides of the fuel injection bores of the primary inner group in the direction Y at locations where an axis distance between the fuel injection bore of the primary outer group and said valve bore is smaller than that between the fuel injection bore of the primary inner group and said valve bore, and the fuel injection bores of the secondary group are sub-classified into a secondary inner group of fuel injection bores, and a secondary outer group of fuel injection bores disposed on opposite sides of the fuel injection bores of the secondary inner group in the direction Y at locations where an axis distance between the fuel injection bore of the secondary outer group and said valve bore is smaller than that between the fuel injection bore of the secondary inner group and said valve bore.
