Title: Electromagnetically actuatable valve
Patent Number: 4,976,405
Publication Date: December 11, 1990
Appl. No: 07/485,906
Application Filed: February 28, 1990
Abstract: An electromagnetically actuatable valve is proposed that serves in particular as a fuel injection valve for fuel injection systems of internal combustion engines. An armature cooperates with magnet poles, and a bearing cone the length of the generatrix of which is approximately equivalent to the diameter is machined into a valve seat body. The armature and valve seat body may also have bearing faces of calotte shape facing one another.

Claim: What is claimed and desired to be secured by Letters Patent of the United States is
Claim: 1. An electromagnetically actuatable valve, in particular a fuel injection valve for fuel injection systems of internal combustion engines, having a core (11, 11') and an armature (10) of soft magnetic material arranged to actuate a valve element (2) adapted to cooperate with a fixed valve seat (4), said valve element (2) provided with a sealing element (3) movable outwardly for opening the valve, said armature (10) being connected to the valve element (2) by a connecting part (9), said connecting part (9) being arranged to protrude through a flow bore (53) of a valve seat body (5), said valve seat body (5) further having a frustoconical bearing cone (27) machined therein a length of a surface line of which is approximately equivalent to a mean diameter thereof, and said armature (10), on its side remote from the core (11, 11'), has a frustoconical surface adapted to engage a majority of a surface portion of the bearing cone.
Claim: 2. A valve as defined by claim 1, in which an undercut (37) is provided in the frustoconical surface of the armature (10).
Claim: 3. A valve as defined by claim 1, in which slits (17) are machined into the bearing cone (27), said slits extending over a portion of the bearing cone (27), terminate at a ring (36), and pierce the valve seat body (5).
Claim: 4. A valve as defined by claim 2, in which slits (17) are machined into the bearing cone (27), said slits extending over a portion of the bearing cone (27), terminate at a ring (36), and pierce the valve seat body (5).
