Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A fuel pipe includes a tubular header pipe and a socket coupled to the header pipe and supplied with fuel from the header pipe. The header pipe and the socket form a joining portion therebetween. The joining portion is shaped to be elongated in a first direction. The joining portion includes a communication hole that connects an inner region of the header pipe and an inner region of the socket. The communication hole is an elongated hole elongated in the first direction.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A fuel pipe comprising: a tubular header pipe; and a socket coupled to the header pipe and supplied with fuel from the header pipe, wherein the header pipe and the socket form a joining portion therebetween shaped to be elongated in a first direction, the joining portion includes a communication hole that connects an inner region of the header pipe and an inner region of the socket, and the communication hole is an elongated hole elongated in the first direction. 2. The fuel pipe according to claim 1 , wherein the header pipe includes an outer wall having a flat portion defining a first joining portion, the socket is tubular and includes an outer wall having a flat portion defining a second joining portion, the first joining portion includes a first through-hole, the second joining portion includes a second through-hole, and the first through-hole and the second through-hole are connected to configure the communication hole in a state in which the first joining portion and the second joining portion are coupled to configure the joining portion. 3. The fuel pipe according to claim 2 , wherein the first through-hole and the second through-hole have similar shapes. 4. The fuel pipe according to claim 1 , wherein the socket is connected to a fuel injection valve supplied with fuel from the header pipe through the socket, and the first direction corresponds to an axial direction of the socket.
