Abstract: An ultra-high speed vacuum pump evacuation system includes a first stage ultra-high speed turbofan and a second stage conventional turbomolecular pump. The turbofan is either connected in series to a chamber to be evacuated, or is optionally disposed entirely within the chamber. The turbofan employs large diameter rotor blades operating at high linear blade velocity to impart an ultra-high pumping speed to a fluid. The second stage turbomolecular pump is fluidly connected downstream from the first stage turbofan. In operation, the first stage turbofan operates in a pre-existing vacuum, with the fluid asserting only small axial forces upon the rotor blades. The turbofan imparts a velocity to fluid particles towards an outlet at a high volume rate, but moderate compression ratio. The second stage conventional turbomolecular pump then compresses the fluid to pressures for evacuation by a roughing pump.

Abstract: A fuel injection pump prevents the uninterrupted supply of fuel through an orifice to a cam chamber. An orifice inlet is formed on the same plane as a wall surface of a discharge fuel chamber. As a result, foreign substances, which are carried with the flow of the fuel to the vicinity of the orifice inlet, will fall downward in the discharge fuel chamber to a location away from the orifice inlet thereby preventing the foreign substances from residing in the vicinity of the orifice inlet, as occurs in the case of a conventional fuel injection pump. Specifically, since the foreign substances residing in the vicinity of the orifice inlet can be removed at each engine stop, the amount of foreign substances collected in the vicinity of the orifice inlet can be prevented from increasing during engine operation.
