Patent number: 4483297Abstract: A fuel injection pump is proposed, which has a centrifugal governor disposed in the suction chamber of the fuel injection pump, the governor having a sleeve displaceable on a piston, and a pressure chamber enclosed in the interior of the governor sleeve, the latter being defined by the end face of the piston. By means of a relief line of the pressure chamber which is opened in the offset position of the governor sleeve, the restoring force on the centrifugal governor is increased during starting by the amount of the pressure difference appearing at the governor sleeve. Beyond a predetermined adjustment of the governor sleeve, the relief line is blocked, so that the governor can function unhindered within the normal operational range. The hysteresis thus resulting upon the shut-off of the increased starting quantity improves the behavior of the engine as it runs up to operational speed.Type: GrantFiled: August 23, 1982Date of Patent: November 20, 1984Assignee: Robert BoschInventors: Franz Eheim, Gerald Hofer, Claus Koster, Karl Konrath, Manfred Schwarz

Patent number: 4476835Abstract: A process for delaying the axial movement of the pump piston of a fuel injection pump of an internal combustion engine and fuel injection pump for completing the process are proposed. The fuel injection pump consists of a pump piston placed in a movable and rotating mode within a cylindrical bore of a cylindrical sleeve. The pump piston is designed as a combination piston with a damping piston of larger diameter, which will upon completion of the fuel injection period of the turn with the damping shoulder, border the damping chamber within damping bore of the cylindrical sleeve. This further allows only throttled amounts of fuel to flow through the throttling pintle into the suction chamber; the throttling pintle runs in a longitudinal direction and is located on the damping piston.Type: GrantFiled: September 8, 1982Date of Patent: October 16, 1984Assignee: Robert Bosch GmbHInventor: Helmut Laufer

Patent number: 4465049Abstract: A fuel injection apparatus for internal combustion engines, in which the onset and end of injection are determined by a hydraulically actuated control slide. The injection pump of the apparatus, which is preferably combined with an injection nozzle to form a pump/nozzle unit, has a pump piston embodied as a differential piston, whose section having the larger diameter serves as an auxiliary pump piston and generates a control pressure (p.sub.S) actuating the control slide. During its compression stroke the control slide, in order to initiate the onset of injection, closes an overflow line leading out of the pump work chamber; and during its return stroke, which is effected by the pressure drop in the control line, the control slide relieves the overflow line in order to control the end of injection. The control pressure (p.sub.Type: GrantFiled: January 12, 1981Date of Patent: August 14, 1984Assignee: Robert Bosch GmbHInventors: Konrad Eckert, Max Straubel, Wilhelm Vogel

Patent number: 4450805Abstract: A fuel injection pump is proposed in which the quantity adjustment member has a travel limitation device in the form of an adjustable stop, which is adjusted in accordance with the displacement of an adjusting piston in accordance with a contour formed in the jacket face thereon. The displacement of the adjusting piston is effected via rpm-dependent pressure of the suction chamber counter to the force of a restoring spring and counter to a pressure which can be established with the aid of a pressure control valve in accordance with engine operating parameters. The adjustment of the stop is thus effected with the high work capacity of the suction chamber pressure, and the limitation of the adjustment is attained with the aid of the modulated pressure diverted from the suction chamber pressure.Type: GrantFiled: September 8, 1982Date of Patent: May 29, 1984Assignee: Robert Bosch GmbHInventors: Franz Eheim, Gerald Hofer

Patent number: 4449500Abstract: A diaphragm (38) controls a position of a control sleeve (14) relative to a plunger or piston (16) in response to a pressure differential between a pressure chamber (42) and a control chamber (46) which are defined by the diaphragm (38). The pressure chamber (42) is communicated to an atmospheric pressure or a boost pressure while the control chamber (46) is selectively communicated to a source of vacuum supply through a first check valve (62) and to the atmosphere through a second check valve (58). The first and second check valves open when the pressure inside the control chamber is higher and lower than a reference level, respectively, thereby maintaining the pressure within the control chamber (46) substantially at the reference level to promote an accurate control of the control sleeve (14).Type: GrantFiled: June 7, 1982Date of Patent: May 22, 1984Assignee: Diesel Kiki Company, Ltd.Inventors: Hisatsugu Kawatei, Hidetoshi Saito, Hisashi Nakamura

Patent number: 4449504Abstract: A distributor type fuel injection pump has an accumulator. When an internal combustion engine is in low-speed rotation or in low-load operation, the accumulator accumulates part of the fuel pressurized within a fuel compression chamber, thereby lowering the fuel injection rate. Also, the fuel injection pump is provided with compensator which operates simultaneously with the accumulator. While the injection rate is lowered by operation of the accumulator, the compensator extends the injection period to compensate for the reduction of injection quantity attributed to reduction of the injection rate.Type: GrantFiled: March 29, 1983Date of Patent: May 22, 1984Assignee: Nippondenso Co., Ltd.Inventors: Yasuhiro Furuhashi, Yukinori Miyata, Osamu Hishinuma
