Abstract: A fuel injection system operates under a predetermined substantially constant pump speed and creates multi-pressure levels by diverting the fuel flow. Fuel pressure can be switched from one steady pressure level to another level on-demand instantly. This superimposes and overlaps typical fuel injection events in the linear operating ranges under different pressure levels, significantly increasing the fuel injection dynamic range. The dynamic range is further increased when another predetermined constant pump speed is assigned. Thus, the system saves fuel and reduces exhaust emission in city driving when gas pedal is released including idle. The same system can instantly deliver additional fuel on-demand for extra power beyond engine rating producing a sport-car-like performance.

Abstract: A returnless fuel system has a fuel pump whose speed is varied by varying the voltage across the fuel pump. Controlling the fuel pump speed entails sensing the back pressure with a pressure sensor that may lie between the jet pump supply orifice and the pressure regulator in the pressure regulator case. A trigger circuit determines the absolute value of the difference between the sensed back pressure and an average, or predetermined target, pressure and compares it to a predetermined pressure value. If the absolute value is greater than the predetermined value, then a control circuit is invoked that compares the sensed pressure to a high threshold pressure and a low threshold pressure, and based upon such comparisons, the speed of the fuel pump is varied or maintained such that the mean pressure of the fuel system is targeted under all engine consumption conditions.

Abstract: A fuel pump suctions fuel from a fuel tank and discharges the fuel. A discharge metering valve regulates an amount of the discharged fuel out of the suctioned fuel. The discharged amount is regulated by operating closing timing for closing the discharge metering valve through energization of the discharge metering valve.

A rotation angle interval between energizing operations of the discharge metering valve is lengthened when rotation speed of an output shaft of a diesel engine is high. Thus, a residual magnetic flux in the discharge metering valve is reduced. As a result, control of the fuel pressure can be suitably performed.

An electronic control unit (ECU) drives and controls a suction control valve provided in the fuel pump to regulate a pressure-feeding amount of the fuel and to perform fuel pressure feedback control. The ECU calculates a differential term of a control amount of the suction control valve based on a pressure deviation of the fuel pressure in the common rail with respect to target pressure. The ECU sets the differential term at zero when the fuel pressure is higher than the target pressure and the differential term of the control amount is a value for pressure-feeding the fuel.

Abstract: A fuel filter is located downstream of a feed pump to filter fuel discharged from the feed pump. An orifice is located between the fuel filter and a suction quantity control valve to restrict a flow rate of the fuel passing through the fuel filter. A positive pressure of the feed pump is applied to the fuel filter, and a passing pressure at the fuel filter increases. Even if viscosity of the fuel increases and the fuel becomes wax-like at low temperature, clogging of the fuel filter or an insufficient flow rate can be inhibited. The orifice restricts the flow rate of the fuel passing through the fuel filter. Accordingly, an increase in size of the fuel filter can be prevented even if the fuel filter is located downstream of the feed pump.
