ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to electrically operable valves and in particular, but not exclusively, to valves for use in fuel injection system for internal combustion engines. A valve has a housing 13 having a valve 3 seat, and receiving a valve body 2 which can be raised from the valve seat 3 in accordance with a variation in dimension of magnetostrictional device 7 or a piezoceramic device caused by a current flow in the device. The valve body 2 is spring-loaded, by spring 15, in a sense to close the valve and is connected via the device 7 to a movable abutment unit 10,11, which is so constituted that, during the current induced variations in dimension, it acts as a stationary abutment or anchorage for that end of the device, which is remote from the valve body.
