Abstract: An injection rate controller for a fuel injection pump comprises first and second valve ports formed in a pump housing so as to communicate with each other through a connection aperture, a spool valve movably accommodated within the first valve port and adapted to form communication between the first valve port and a high pressure chamber through a communication aperture under a specific condition of engine drive, a pressure control valve having its cross section contracted gradually in its axial direction and accommodated within the second valve port so as to be reciprocative in synchronism with a plunger, and a spill channel formed in the pump housing for connecting the second valve port on a fuel exhaust side to a pump house, whereby part of high pressure fuel within the high pressure chamber is guided, under the specific condition of engine drive, successively to the communication aperture, first valve port, connection aperture and second valve port, and is caused to escape into the pump house through the

Abstract: A pressure sensitive member (68) is operatively connected to a pressure regulator assembly (80, 100) through a cam section (64b) of a control pin (64) and a follower pin (76). The pressure regulator assembly (80, 100) regulates a fuel pressure inside a chamber (12a) of a pump housing (12) upon a change of a pressure acting on the pressure sensitive member (68), thereby compensating a timing of fuel injection determined by an injection timing control member (24). The pressure acting on the pressure sensitive member (68) is an atmospheric pressure or a boost pressure. The pressure regulator (80, 100) is adjustable to either advance or retard the injection timing as desired in conformity with an atmospheric pressure or a boost pressure, or to vary the point at which the fuel pressure in the pump chamber (12a) starts to be varied.

Abstract: A fuel supply pump supplies fuel from a fuel reservoir to a fuel injection pump which comprises a piston for injecting fuel from a fuel injection nozzle into an internal combustion engine. The piston is reciprocated for fuel injection by an engine driven rotary cam. The fuel injection pump further comprises a fuel control sleeve which is positioned by flyweights to control the fuel injection volume in accordance with the engine speed. A modulator valve is actuated by the flyweights to control the supply pump pressure in accordance with engine speed. A fuel injection timing means is responsive to the modulated supply pump pressure to control the angular relationship between the engine crankshaft and the rotary cam and thereby the fuel injection timing in accordance with the modulated pressure.

Abstract: In one form of the invention, a rotatable and axially slidable plunger mounted within a fixed cylindrical plunger barrel forms with the barrel the casing bore and a spring biased electromagnetically driven axially slidable cut off sleeve, a dash pot chamber including a narrow radial gap between the cut off barrel and the pump casing body. The high pressure cut-off fuel may be directed to the chamber. Alternatively, the cut-off fuel may be directed to impact a deflector to produce an axial force modulating axial shift of the sleeve.
