  • Patent number: 7861693
    Abstract: An injection system for an internal combustion engine has at least one injector (18) which is coupled hydraulically to a fuel accumulator (16), a prefeed pump (12) for feeding fuel from a fuel tank (10), a high pressure pump (14) which is arranged downstream behind the prefeed pump (12) for feeding the fuel into the fuel accumulator (16), and a line (42) which branches off downstream of the prefeed pump (12) and upstream of the high pressure pump (14) and is coupled hydraulically to an exhaust section injector (47), by way of which fuel can be injected into an exhaust section of the internal combustion engine.

  • Publication number: 20090095257
    Abstract: A fuel injection system has a high-pressure fuel reservoir with at least one fuel feed and at least one fuel discharge, wherein the fuel feed interacts with a high-pressure fuel pump and the fuel discharge interacts with a fuel injection valve. Arranged in the fuel discharge and/or fuel feed of the high-pressure fuel reservoir is a gap filter which is configured geometrically in such a way that it achieves a predetermined throttle effect. The use of the gap filter in the fuel discharge and/or in the fuel feed prevents dirt particles from being able to get into the injector and cause malfunctions there. Furthermore, pressure vibrations which are induced in the system as a result of the injection process or as a result of the high-pressure fuel pump are damped by the throttle effect of the gap filter.

  • Publication number: 20040251184
    Abstract: A filter element for filtering fuel, in particular diesel fuel, in a motor vehicle comprises a by-pass (14, 26) with a sealing element (15, 21, 24), which opens on a given pressure difference between a region (19) before the filter element and a region (20) after the filter element being achieved.

  • Publication number: 20040177752
    Abstract: A connecting element (1) connects a piston (2) with a restoring element (6) for a radial piston pump. The piston (2) is displaceably mounted in a cylinder (4) and can be restored from an upper dead-centre position by means of the restoring element (6). The connecting element (1) is connected to the piston (2) in a positive fit.
