Abstract
Abstract An idling speed adjusting mechanism for injection pumps in which a pivotal connection for raising the idling rotational speed is adjustable against a spring force by way of an adjusting mechanism arranged externally at the pump housing and adjustable against the spring force. The adjusting mechanism includes an adjusting motor formed in particular by an expansion element which is extensible with a temperature increase in the spring prestress direction. The adjusting motor is connected with the pivotal spring connection by way of an intermediate member displaceable between abutments fixed at the housing. The intermediate member, in turn, is spring-loaded with a temperature increase opposite the extension direction of the adjusting piston of the adjusting motor.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 18
Claim 1
Independent Claim
74 words
An idling speed adjusting mechanism comprising: an adjusting motor having an adjusting piston, said adjusting piston having an extension direction and operable to be extended with a temperature increase; connecting means having a force applied thereto in said extension direction; an intermediate member displaceable between relatively fixed abutment means and operatively connecting the adjusting motor to said connecting means; spring means operable to displace the intermediate member in a direction opposite said extension direction.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
74 words
An idling speed adjusting mechanism comprising: an adjusting motor having an adjusting piston, said adjusting piston having an extension direction and operable to be extended with a temperature increase; connecting means having a force applied thereto in said extension direction; an intermediate member displaceable between relatively fixed abutment means and operatively connecting the adjusting motor to said connecting means; spring means operable to displace the intermediate member in a direction opposite said extension direction.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
32 words
An idling speed adjusting mechanism according to claim 1, characterized in that said force is a spring prestress force and in that the adjusting motor is extensible in a spring prestress direction.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
18 words
An idling speed mechanism according to claim 2, characterized in that the adjusting motor includes an expansion element.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
20 words
An idling speed ajusting mechanism according to claim 3, characterized in that the connecting means includes a pivotal spring connection.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
60 words
An idling speed adjusting mechanism with a housing according to one of claims 1, 2 or 3, characterized in that the intermediate member is formed as an adjusting rod having two mutually oppositely disposed abutment collars, a part fixed at the housing is located between the abutment collars, and in that portions of the fixed part form said abutment means.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
36 words
An idling speed adjusting mechanism according to claim 5, characterized in that the fixed part is a bush means and includes at one end thereof a radially outwardly projecting annular collar securely anchored in the housing.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
43 words
