Abstract
Abstract A control device for diesel-injection internal combustion engines, whose hydraulically activated adjusting member moves the regulating rod of the fuel injection pump in the "stop" direction when the discharge of the hydraulic medium is blocked by a magnetic valve, and simultaneously serves as an arbitrarily engageable full-load or delivery rate reducing stop for the regulating rod. The control device includes a first electromagnet, which activates the valve member of the magnetic valve, and a second electromagnet, whose control member limits the adjusting movement of the adjusting member, which can be controlled by the valve member of the first electromagnet, to a position that serves as the full-load or lower rate stop for the regulating rod of the injection pump, when the second electromagnet is engaged. This limitation takes place mechanically or by opening a return line, which determines the position of an adjusting piston that is connected with the adjusting member.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 16
Claim 1
Independent Claim
147 words
A control device for a diesel-injection internal combustion engine, provided with a magnetic valve adapted to determine the zero position of the delivery rate adjusting member of an injection pump, as well as to block the discharge of a hydraulic medium from a loading chamber of an adjusting member to an unpressurized chamber by means of a valve member that can be activated by a first electromagnet, said hydraulic medium being subject to the delivery pump pressure and capable of moving said adjusting member, further characterized wherein a second electromagnet includes a control member adapted to limit movement of the adjusting member, said adjusting member also being under the control of said valve member and capable of limiting movement of said adjusting member to a position which controls the delivery rate of said adjusting member of said injection pump and functions as a delivery rate stop therefor.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
147 words
A control device for a diesel-injection internal combustion engine, provided with a magnetic valve adapted to determine the zero position of the delivery rate adjusting member of an injection pump, as well as to block the discharge of a hydraulic medium from a loading chamber of an adjusting member to an unpressurized chamber by means of a valve member that can be activated by a first electromagnet, said hydraulic medium being subject to the delivery pump pressure and capable of moving said adjusting member, further characterized wherein a second electromagnet includes a control member adapted to limit movement of the adjusting member, said adjusting member also being under the control of said valve member and capable of limiting movement of said adjusting member to a position which controls the delivery rate of said adjusting member of said injection pump and functions as a delivery rate stop therefor.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
42 words
A control device according to claim 1, further wherein said control member of said second electromagnet cooperates with an adjusting piston, said adjusting piston further including a stop means arranged for engagement with said control member when said second electromagnet is engaged.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
43 words
A control device according to claim 2, further wherein said control member engages in a longitudinally extending flat groove portion provided in the recess of said adjusting member and arranged to extend toward said loading chamber even when said second magnet is disengaged.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
27 words
A control device according to claim 2, wherein said adjusting piston further includes an adjustable stop means that includes a portion that terminates in said loading chamber.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
27 words
A control device according to claim 4, wherein said adjustable stop means further includes at its opposite end portion a support means for a pressure spring means.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
25 words
A control device according to claim 4, wherein said adjustable stop means is threaded into said adjusting piston and secured by a lock nut means.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
39 words
A control device according to claim 6, wherein the terminal portion of said stop means includes a movement limiting means therefor and said support means on said stop means forms a travel limiting means for said pressure spring means.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
57 words
A control device according to claim 1, wherein the valve member of said magnetic valve is formed as a slide valve that includes an axial bore arranged to contain a spring loaded overflow valve means adapted to provide for communication between a return line and a feed line of said injection pump leading to the loading chamber.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
58 words
A control device according to claim 1, wherein said device includes an adjusting piston and a further valve member serves as the control member of a second magnetic valve that is associated with said second electromagnet, said last named valve member being operated by said second electromagnet arranged to control the flow cross section of a return line.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
41 words
A control device according to claim 9, wherein said adjusting piston includes a control edge and said return line communicates with an annular groove so that said loading chamber is adjustable to determine the delivery rate position of said adjusting member.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim
26 words
A control device according to claim 10, wherein said loading chamber is formed by a bore in a longitudinally adjustable cylinderical bushing disposed in a housing.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim
35 words
A control device according to claim 11, wherein said bushing includes a portion that extends out of said housing, said portion being adapted to be adjusted relative to said housing and secured against inadvertent movement.
Claim 14
Dependent Claim
28 words
A control device according to claim 12, wherein said adjusting piston is provided with a flexible diaphragm that is also subjected to the pressure in said loading chamber.
Claim 15
Dependent Claim
18 words
A control device according to claim 8, wherein said return line is controlled by said second magnetic valve.
Claim 16
Dependent Claim
63 words
A control device according to claim 14, wherein a control line is connected to said loading chamber and said first magnetic valve is formed as a 3/2 way valve which in one position is connected with a further return line that leads to an unpressurized chamber and in another position is connected with said feed line which is supplied from said delivery pump.
