Patent number: 4735180Abstract: A centrifugal adjuster for a fuel injection pump governor having a driving part driven at an rpm in synchronism with the engine and having a torsionally elastically coupled flyweight holder guided in a rotational guide. Via a step, beyond a predetermined rotational deflection, the centrifugal adjuster displaces the flyweight holder axially with respect to the driving part, so that a jolt-like stroke effected by means of the step is superimposed on the regulating stroke effected via the flyweights of the centrifugal adjuster whenever the rpm is at a low level, for instance at idling rpm. As a result, a friction that leads to see-sawing of the engine and exhibits pronounced hysteresis is shaken out of the governor.Type: GrantFiled: June 10, 1986Date of Patent: April 5, 1988Assignee: Robert Bosch GmbHInventor: Manfred Kramer

Patent number: 4733645Abstract: A fuel injection pump for internal combustion engines which has an rpm-proportional injection onset adjusting device, a pressure control valve controlling the supply pressure (phd f), a cold-start acceleration device having a pressure valve associated with the pressure control valve, and a full-load stop, controlled by an adjustment device, for limiting the maximum full-load quantity injected by the fuel injection pump. The adjustment device has a piston, which is acted upon on one end by the supply pressure in the suction chamber of the injection pump and on the other end by a pressure (p.sub.a) that is made to differ from the supply pressure by means of two separate throttles. The two throttles have the effect that if the pressure valve is closed, the adaptation device is subjected to a differential pressure which is approximately equal to that when the pressure valve is opened, and so the full-load courses attained in normal operation and in cold operation are virtually identical.Type: GrantFiled: May 5, 1986Date of Patent: March 29, 1988Assignee: Robert Bosch GmbHInventors: Josef Hain, Karl-Friedrich Russeler

Patent number: 4733640Abstract: A fuel injection pump for internal combustion engines is described, which for controlling fuel quantity is provided with control unit that controls an electric final control element, which in turn actuates the regulating member that determines the fuel injection quantity per pump piston supply stroke. The supply of fuel to the pump work chamber is effected from a fuel supply chamber, which is kept at a controlled pressure by a fuel feed pump. To limit the maximum speed of the engine supplied by the fuel injection pump in the event of failure of the control unit, a valve is provided in the intake line of the fuel feed pump. Using this valve, the flow cross section of the intake line can be varied or closed. By means of the modification of the fuel pressure in the fuel supply chamber effected thereby, a control of the fuel injection quantity that is not dependent on the position of the quantity-determining member is attained.Type: GrantFiled: April 30, 1986Date of Patent: March 29, 1988Assignee: Robert Bosch GmbHInventors: Helmut Laufer, Max Straubel

Patent number: 4734600Abstract: In an apparatus for noise reduction and damping in ventilators of electric machines, in particular vehicular alternators, it is proposed that the ventilator support on the rotor shaft be effected by axially staggering inner rubber inlays on both sides and providing adjoining outer spring pressure elements such that the ventilator region is clamped, at least in the axial direction and preferably radially as well with an additional rubber ring. As a result, the transfer of resonant vibrations of the rotor to the ventilator are reliably avoided, and the noise emissions are decisively reduced.Type: GrantFiled: December 1, 1986Date of Patent: March 29, 1988Assignee: Robert Bosch GmbHInventors: Gunther Bergan, Manfred Frister, Gerhard Henneberger, Peter Lack, Stefan Renner
