  • Patent number: 6260531
    Abstract: A valve seat insert 10 for use in combination with a cylinder head 12. Insert 10 is disposed within a cavity 24 formed within cylinder head 12 and includes several notches 40 which cooperate with surface 26 within cavity 24 to form a plurality of passages or channels 50 which allow fuel 18 to freely pass between surface 26 and insert 10. Channels 50 are effective to substantially prevent fuel 18 from becoming trapped between insert 10 and cylinder head 12, thereby preventing the formation of corrosive acids and byproducts.

  • Patent number: 6116870
    Abstract: A high pressure pump which has a working chamber, which on the one hand, is connected to a low pressure circuit via a solenoid valve and on the other hand, is connected to a high pressure reservoir via a check valve. The solenoid valve has a spring-loaded closing body, which cooperates with a valve seat and together with it, constitutes the check valve. When the magnet is without current, the check function of the closing body is switched off via a valve tappet of the solenoid valve so that even with an initial working stroke of the high pressure pump, the connection to the low pressure circuit is maintained. Only with a supply of current to the solenoid valve executed during the working stroke does the valve tappet allow the closing body to contact its valve seat, whereupon the high pressure delivery then begins. The high pressure pump is designated for use in fuel injection systems of diesel motor vehicle engines.

  • Patent number: 5257918
    Abstract: The invention provides a fuel injection pump for internal combustion engines having a high-pressure chamber, which is intermittently brought to high fuel pressure, and which communicates via a pressure line with an injection point of an engine, and having a pressure valve, inserted into the pressure line. This pressure valve comprises a valve body and a valve seat onto which a valve member is pressed by the force of a valve spring. The valve spring is located in a recess of a pressure valve holder, which communicates with the injection line via an axial conduit. A transitional region leading from the diameter of the axial recess to the diameter of the conduit is embodied with a cone shape or a truncated cone shape.

  • Patent number: 5233955
    Abstract: A fuel injection pump for internal combustion engines, having a pump piston that reciprocates in a cylinder liner inserted into a pump housing. The pump piston and housing encloses a pump work chamber, and the pump piston has a control recess on its jacket face that communicates with the pump work chamber through a conduit. An oblique groove extends at a predetermined angle from the axis of the pump piston in the jacket face thereof and forms control edges. An annular slide is axially displaceable on the pump piston and includes two diametrically opposed diversion bores. To interrupt the high-pressure pumping to provide a pre-injection quantity and a main-injection quantity, first, second and third pockets are additionally machined into the jacket face of the pump piston. These pockets cooperated with pockets machined in the annular slide and with the control edge formed by the lower face edge of the annular slide to control the fuel flow.

  • Patent number: 5226795
    Abstract: A fuel injection pump for internal combustion engines is proposed, having a reciprocating piston that defines a pump work chamber in a pump cylinder and that on its jacket face has a control recess communicating with the pump work chamber, and a control slide is displaceable on the pump piston in order to control the high-pressure pumping. This control slide, which cooperates with the control recess on the pump piston, is actuated via an adjusting lever disposed on an adjusting lever shaft; the adjusting lever shaft is moved by an adjusting lever mounted on it outside the housing. This adjusting lever can be pivoted between two stops; according to the invention, these stops are disposed on a base plate that simultaneously acts as a flange of the adjusting lever shaft bearing bush and that can be moved relative to the pump housing via oblong slots in order to adjust the stops.

  • Patent number: 5213085
    Abstract: A fuel injection pump for internal combustion engines having at least one pump piston each of which include one control slide that is axially displaceable on the pump piston. For fuel control, the pump piston is also rotatable, while the control slide is secured against torsion, and a ball-shaped tang that engages a slit of a rider is present on the control slide. The tang is controlled by the rider and a control rod to control the fuel injection quantity.

  • Patent number: 5211549
    Abstract: A fuel injection pump for internal combustion engines, having a reciprocating pump piston and an annular slide displaceable on the pump piston and having a control bore which cooperates with a control recess on a pump piston that communicates with the pump work chamber via a conduit. Because of a crooked position of the control bore with respect to the piston axis, an ellipse-like opening cross section is created, which in cooperation with the oblique control edge opens a fast, large opening cross section, by way of which in cooperation with an equal pressure valve disposed in the injection line, the fuel can flow out quickly, and a reliable, fast closure of the injection valve is assured. A pressure holding valve is also provided which opens toward the work chamber.

  • Patent number: 5191868
    Abstract: A fuel injection pump for internal combustion engines with a load- and/or rpm-dependent injection course formed by a reciprocating fuel control slide and a piston pump. The piston includes oppositely disposed slits and the reciprocating control slide has a graduated recess on its lower edge oriented toward the pump piston control slits, or the lower edges of the control slits are given a suitable geometry for fuel control.

  • Patent number: 5188074
    Abstract: The invention is based on a fuel injection pump having an adjuster, actuatable via an adjusting mechanism; the adjusting mechanism has an adjusting piston which is displaceable in a cylinder and is adjustable counter to a restoring force by a pressure fluid. The delivery of pressure fluid to the adjusting piston is controlled via electric valves, and by means of various geometrically defined adjusting piston positions, exact injection adjustment is possible without requiring technically complicated feedback sensors on the adjuster.

  • Patent number: 4913633
    Abstract: A fuel injection pump for internal combustion engines having a plurality of pump elements disposed in a row, the onset and end of supply of each being effected by means of a respective control slide that is axially displaceable on the pump piston and by the control of relief conduits for the pump work chamber. The control slides are actuated via a rotary shaft; upon rotation of the rotary shaft, the control slides are axially displaced via driver arms secured on the rotary shaft. To adjust the axial position of the individual control slides relative to one another, the driver arms are permanently deformed in the axial direction of the control slides.

  • Patent number: 4840161
    Abstract: A fuel injection pump for internal combustion engines, in particular having a plurality of linearly aligned pump elements, the pump injection onset is determined by one control slide per pump element in which the control slide is axially displaceable on the pump plunger and by a control of relief conduits of the pump work chambers. The control slide is actuated via a torque shaft in that a respective adjusting bolt of a straddling element joined to the torque shaft engages a cross groove of the control slide. The adjusting bolt has a cylindrical stud portion and a slide shoe supported thereon, and the slide shoe is secured against axial displacement by means of a head of the adjusting bolt.
