  • Patent number: 7210463
    Abstract: A pump having least one pump element with a pump piston guided in a sealed fashion in a cylinder bore (26) of a housing part delimiting a pump working chamber in the cylinder bore, and driven into a stroke motion. The working chamber is connected to an inlet conduit through by an inlet valve opening into the pump working chamber and to an outlet conduit through an outlet valve opening out from the working chamber. The inlet valve has a valve element acted on in a closing direction by a valve spring. The inlet conduit includes a first blind bore which adjoins the pump working chamber and has a smaller diameter than the cylinder bore a valve seat is formed at the transition from the cylinder bore to the first blind bore, and a second blind bore, as another part of the inlet conduit, feeds into the first blind bore.

  • Patent number: 6792922
    Abstract: A fuel delivery unit for an internal combustion engine including a housing, which includes a timing unit for shifting the point of injection of fuel into the combustion chambers of the internal combustion engine. An injection timing piston is accommodated in the timing unit, which is displaceably mounted in the timing unit and which encloses a trailing piston displaceably relative thereto. The timing unit contains a pressure chamber which may be pressurized/depressurized via an actuator, a cold start accelerator piston being movable via the pressure chamber, acting upon both the trailing piston via a spring element and, together with a spring-sleeve combination, influencing the injection timing piston.

  • Publication number: 20040045537
    Abstract: A high-pressure fuel pump (10) is used for a fuel system of a direct-injection internal combustion engine. It includes a housing (12) as well as a low-pressure inlet (18). A high-pressure outlet (20) is also present, which can be connected to a fuel collection line (22). To enable the most compact, small embodiment possible of the high-pressure fuel pump (10), it is proposed that the fuel collection line (22) be integrated into the housing (12) of the high-pressure fuel pump (10).

  • Patent number: 5975054
    Abstract: A security system, which prevents unauthorized access to an adjusting or function element of a fuel supply pump. To that end, the security device comprises a base part, having a bottom by way of which the base part is screwed to a housing wall of the fuel supply pump, and a cap part which is placed, surrounding the function element, on the base part in such a way that the cap part has a side wall that is surrounded with positive complementary engagement by a side wall of the base part. This prevents access to the function element and to the fastening of the base part. The cap part is secured to the base part by connections that are secured against access.

  • Patent number: 5924401
    Abstract: A security device in which a cap-shaped element is mounted covering essential functional and/or adjusting elements of a fuel delivery device. The cap-shaped element is connected to the parts of the fuel delivery device that it encloses in such a way that gaining access to the parts or to removing the cap-shaped element is only possible through destructive means and that when a particular destructive force is exceeded, a fracture occurs at a rated break point by means of which a functional or adjusting element or the defining wall that carries this element is fractured in relation to a fuel-carrying space of the fuel delivery device.
