Abstract: The invention concerns a method for controlling high pressure fuel supply of a set of injectors connected to a common high pressure chamber, called common rail C in a direct injection fuel circuit, through a high pressure pump (P), by acting on the low pressure supply of said pump (P) through an electromagnetic slide valve (E), controlled by the computer managing the operating conditions of the engine which consists in providing, inside the electromagnetic valve (E) one or more internal leakage flows, either from high pressure to low pressure, or from low pressure upstream of the electromagnetic valve (E) to the low pressure downstream thereby solving the specific problems related to the three operating modes of the engine: engine brake, engine shutdown, idle speed.

Abstract: A high-pressure pump for pumping fuel, and includes a main unit for pumping the fuel, which unit is actuated by a secondary unit for pumping a working liquid. The secondary unit has a filling neck for filling a reservoir with working liquid. The filling neck is connected to the reservoir which is selectively plugged by a plug. The plug is provided with a plugging surface that mates with a plugging seat formed in the neck. The neck includes an area for containing an excess of working liquid overflowing from the reservoir. An overflow level extends into the neck above the seat. The plug moves in the neck in the presence of the overflow of working liquid, between a position of pre-plugging, in which the plugging surface is removed from the seat, and a position of plugging in which the plugging surface is in sealed contact with the seat.

Abstract: The invention concerns a pump for pumping a first liquid, called transferred liquid, and comprising a main unit (18) for pumping the transferred liquid actuated by an auxiliary unit (20) pumping a second liquid, called working liquid. The main (18) and auxiliary (20) units are housed in a casing (16) generally cylindrical in shape. The main unit (18) comprises at least two valves (36, 38), for respectively sucking up and delivering the transferred liquid, borne by a valve body (40) housed in the casing (16). Each valve (36, 38) communicates with two chambers, respectively a suction chamber (46) and a delivery chamber (48) for the transferred liquid, defined by opposite surfaces (50, 52) provided in the valve body (40) and the casing (16). Said surfaces (50, 52) comprise two matching shoulders (50E, 52E) pressed against each other so as to form a tight joint plane separating the suction chamber (46) and the delivery chamber (48).
