Abstract: An electrical power supply arrangement includes a solar power device that converts sunlight into DC electrical power. A DC load runs on the DC current electrical power. The DC load may be controlled or adjusted to consume a maximum amount of the electrical output of the solar power device. A DC-to-AC converter converts the DC electrical power into AC electrical power. A controller enables the DC-to-AC converter to receive a portion of the DC current electrical power from the solar power device only if all of the DC current electrical power cannot be consumed by the DC load.

Abstract: A method for controlling the temperature of an injector of an injection system for injecting fuel into the combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine during the standstill of the internal combustion engine involves branching off a partial amount of the fuel as flush volume between a pre-supply pump and a high-pressure pump; conducting it through a heat exchanger for heating the fuel; and feeding the heated fuel to a high-pressure fuel storage (inside the injector) so that the flush volume flows through the high-pressure fuel storage to prevent fuel from solidifying.

Abstract: An improved rpm regulator for a fuel injection pump associated with an internal combustion engine. The regulator includes a suction chamber, an intermediate lever, a fuel quantity control sleeve connected to the intermediate lever, a regulating spring assembly connected to the intermediate lever, a device including centrifugal weights and a governor sleeve for developing and transmitting an rpm signal through the intermediate lever to the fuel quantity control sleeve in opposition to a force exerted by the regulating spring assembly, a control lever, and an adjustable stop, including a cam member, mounted to the housing for limiting the motion of the intermediate lever. A working chamber is provided between the governor sleeve and an end of a guide shaft forming part of the device for transmitting an rpm signal. Openings are provided in the governor sleeve which communicate with the suction chamber for effecting a damping of oscillations of the governor sleeve during predetermined load conditions.
