Abstract: A high pressure pump draws fluid from a fluid inlet into a compression chamber through an inlet chamber. The high pressure pump has a fluid chamber that communicates with the fluid inlet via the inlet chamber. The high pressure pump includes a plunger and a cylinder. The plunger draws fluid from the inlet chamber into the compression chamber when the plunger moves in a drawing direction. The plunger is capable of pressurizing fluid in the compression chamber when the plunger moves in a pressurizing direction. The cylinder movably supports the plunger therein. When the plunger moves in the drawing direction, fluid in the inlet chamber is drawn into the compression chamber, so that fluid flows from the fluid chamber into the inlet chamber.

Abstract: An axial piston pump, for pumping an operating oil in a hydraulic system, comprises a rotary cylinder block having a plurality of cylinder bores formed therein and disposed at regular intervals around a rotational axis thereof. Each bore is opened at a bottom thereof through a hole formed in an end wall of the cylinder block, a plurality of pistons being slidably received in the bores, respectively. Further, the pump comprises a fixed slant cam plate engaged with the pistons during a rotation of the block, for causing a reciprocation of the pistons within the cylinder bores, and a fixed valve plate having a suction port and a discharge port. The block end wall is resiliently pressed against the valve plate so that the holes of the bores are operatively connected with the suction and discharge ports of the valve plate during the rotation of the block.

Abstract: The specification describes a distributor apparatus provided with a plurality of distributor valve arrangement in a circular pattern and including valve plungers. The distributor apparatus includes a rotary distributor cam provided with a single distributor lobe for orbiting in the circular pattern and for moving the valve plungers in succession from a non-distributing to a stationary distributing position. The cam lobe has a planar face for holding the valve plungers in the distributing position throughout the entire delivery stroke of a pump unit plunger metering and pumping fuel to the distributor apparatus.

Abstract: A single plunger distributor type fuel injection pump for multi-cylinder internal combustion engines having improved features for preventing cavitation in the fuel distribution passages upon fuel cutoff and for providing a uniform residual fuel pressure in the idle fuel distribution passages. The pump does not have the usual delivery valve for maintaining a high residual fuel pressure in the distribution passages. Instead, the passages upon injection termination drain into a spill chamber, the pressure within which builds up to resist fuel flow from the passages and minimize cavitation therewithin. The spill chamber pressure is relieved by a bleed passage opening into the low pressure fuel supply chamber. The pressure in the idle fuel distribution passages is maintained at a low predetermined level by connection of the passages to the fuel supply chamber between injection intervals.

Abstract: A fuel injection pump for internal combustion engines includes a pump piston whose simultaneous reciprocation and rotation distributes pressurized fuel to the several injection nozzles of the engine. In order to shift the onset of fuel injection towards a later time during the delivery stroke of the piston, relief channels are disposed in the piston and in the surrounding cylindrical bushing. An annular slide, moving coaxially with respect to the piston, cooperates with the terminal apertures of one or more of these relief channels to relieve the fluid pressure in the working chamber of the pump, thereby interrupting fuel injection to the nozzles of the engine.
