Abstract: An electronic switch with two transistors connected in a Darlington configuration. A first of the two transistors has collector-emitter terminals connected between input and output terminals. A regulator monitors the output voltage and controls the duty cycle of a switch providing base drive current to the second transistor of the Darlington pair. Current from the switch is also provided to a second switch which is connected to the base of the first transistor. The second switch is a comparator which monitors the voltage of the input terminal as compared to a reference. When the difference between the voltages at the input and output terminals is low, the second switch is closed so that the first transistor is driven by the current through the first switch directly. When the difference between the input voltage and output voltage is high, the second switch opens so that the two transistors are operative as a Darlington pair.

Abstract: For shutting down a fuel injection combustion there is provided a spring-loaded and lockable stop (8), the locking member (13) of which can be retracted in a controlled manner by an operation paramenter, e.g. the number of revolutions. In the released position, the stop (8) acts on the fuel amount control rod (1) and moves this rod into zero-delivery position. Adjustment of the fuel amount control-rod (1) is effected by means of a servomotor, noting that on starting the fuel injection combustion engine the stop (8) is drawn by this servomotor into a position in which the stop is maintained by the locking member (13) until retracting same. This locking position of the lockable stop (8) simultaneously represents a stop for the maximum amount of fuel supplied by the injection pump and the fuel amount control rod can, during operation, be adjusted to any desired and just required amount of fuel supplied. If there occurs an inadmissible operating condition, e.g.

Abstract: The control rod system for the fuel injection devices being designed as pump-nozzle-units (1) for Diesel engines comprises two control rods (7, 8) offset transversely relative to the axis to the pump-nozzle-unit and in longitudinal direction of this axis, said control rods being connected via slide pieces (11, 12) and lever arms (15, 16) with the control shafts (9, 10) rotatably supported on the engine and being common for all pump-nozzle-units (1). As seen in axial direction of the pump-nozzle-unit (1), at least the slide piece (12) located less remote from the nozzle is, with retracted control rod (8), not overlapping the control shaft (9) which is located more remote from the nozzle, so that dismounting of the pump-nozzle-unit by moving it upwardly can be effected without dismounting the control shaft (FIG. 5).

Abstract: In a circuit arrangement for controlling the commutation of a stepping motor, each phase winding (1) of which is connected to the detector diagonal of a bridge circuit consisting of four switching transistors (2, 3, 4, 5), a capacitor (17) is connected across each phase winding (1) and a decoupling diode (13, 14) is included in each of two arms of the bridge circuit. In case of a bridge circuit comprising complementary transistors (2, 4; 3, 5), whose emitters are connected to the terminals (6, 7) of the supply voltage (U.sub.o) and whose collectors are interconnected in pairs, the decoupling diodes (13, 14) are included in the collector leads of the transistors (2, 4) of one type of conductivity, and protective diodes (15, 16) are connected in parallel to the collector-emitter path of the transistors (3, 5) of the other type of conductivity.

Abstract: In a control equipment for adjusting the moment of fuel injection and/or the amount of fuel supplied by a fuel injection pump in internal combustion engines, at least one mechanical energy accumulator (9, 10) is provided between an adjusting member (2, 3) for the begin of fuel supply and/or for the amount of fuel supplied and an electrical servomotor (4), said energy accumulator comprising two mutually movable spring collars (12, 13) between which is accommodated a pre-stressed compression spring (11) and the maximum distance of which one from the other is limited by abutments (14, 15) of a housing surrounding the spring collars. (FIG. 1).

Abstract: In a process for controlling the beginning of delivery of a fuel injection pump for internal combustion engines having fuel injection, particularly Diesel engines, in dependence on the torque and under consideration of immediately measurable operation parameters, at least the revolution speed. The torque is determined from the intake boost pressure generated by a turbocharger and optionally from that amount of air which is blown off at increasing revolution speed above a certain intake boost pressure.A device for performing said process comprises a processor for performing at least one calculating operation provided with a store for storing the program to be executed, sensors transmitting signals to the processor representative of operation parameters of the injection-type internal combustion engine, and actuating means for controlling the beginning of fuel delivery of the fuel injection pump being connected with the processor.

Abstract: In internal combustion engines operated with fuel injection, particularly Diesel engines, of the type having injection pump (1) and injection nozzle (2) integrated to a constructional unit associated to one engine cylinder and having control of the fuel amount supplied by the pump effected by rotating the pump piston (4) provided with at least one oblique control edge giving free, in dependence on the rotational position, a back-flow bore for the fuel at an earlier or later moment, rotation of the pump piston is effected by means of a crank (11) having its crank pin extending parallel to the axis of the pump cylinder. The crank (11) is fixedly arranged on the driven end of the pump piston (4), i.e. either rigidly connected with the pump piston (4) or manufactured with the pump piston to form one single piece.

Abstract: The fuel injection device is designed as a compact module. The fuel is to be supplied through a bore of the housing of the fuel injection internal combustion engine. For accommodating the fuel filter in a protected manner without detracting from the mechanical strength of the housing, the fuel supply conduit opens into a space located at the side of the flange directed toward the nozzle, noting that the flange has at least one axial opening connecting the space located at the side of the flange directed toward the nozzle with the suction space of the pump piston. The fuel filter is arranged between the space located at the side of the flange directed toward the nozzle and the suction space.

Abstract: The invention relates to a fuel injection device comprising an injection pump and an injection nozzle, the nozzle having a spring-loaded control pin and being assembled together with the pump to form a unit insertable into the wall of a cylinder of an injection type internal combustion engine. The device includes a pump piston, a piston sleeve and a pump housing, the housing enclosing the piston sleeve, the return spring action on the piston, and the regulating jacket acting on the piston. The housing is attachable to the engine housing by tightening screws having axes parallel to the piston sleeve, and the said injection nozzle is tightened by a sleeve nut to an element of the piston sleeve.
