Patent ID: 6905002

Claim:
An actuator rail assembly for conveying an actuating fluid under pressure to at least one fuel injector, comprising: an elongate fluid passageway being defined in a rail; a fluid inlet port being in fluid communication with the fluid passageway, the inlet port being fluidly couplable to a source of actuating fluid under pressure; a respective fluid outlet port being associated with each respective fuel injector and being fluidly couplable thereto for conveying actuating fluid to the respective fuel injector; and at least one fluid cavity having at least one throttling orifice, the orifice effecting fluid communication between the fluid cavity and the fluid passageway, the orifice including an aperture, the aperture facing the fluid passageway and being beveled to define a dimensionally decreasing entrance to the orifice as the orifice is approached from the fluid passageway.
