Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim 196 words
A fuel injection pump for internal combustion engines having a fuel delivery pump generating an rpm-dependent pressure and having an rpm governor, said governor including a tension lever for actuating a quantity control member which is engaged in the direction of decreasing injection quantity by a governor sleeve provided with a longitudinal bore by means of which it is slidable in sealingly manner on a tang and enclosing in said bore a damping chamber connected via a bore to surrounding rpm-dependent pressure, said rmp-dependent pressure creating a damping force acting on the governor sleeve, the governor sleeve being displaceable by means of flyweights as well as by a regulator spring whose force is variable through an adjustment lever characterized by the provision of at least one area of the governor sleeve exposed to a second force other than the damping chamber force, whereby the damping chamber force applies a resulting force on the governor sleeve in the direction of decreasing fuel quantity, which force displaces the governor sleeve toward downward fuel regulation irrespective of the action of the flyweights at the idling position of the adjustment lever but at a higher rpm than the idling rpm.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 196 words
A fuel injection pump for internal combustion engines having a fuel delivery pump generating an rpm-dependent pressure and having an rpm governor, said governor including a tension lever for actuating a quantity control member which is engaged in the direction of decreasing injection quantity by a governor sleeve provided with a longitudinal bore by means of which it is slidable in sealingly manner on a tang and enclosing in said bore a damping chamber connected via a bore to surrounding rpm-dependent pressure, said rmp-dependent pressure creating a damping force acting on the governor sleeve, the governor sleeve being displaceable by means of flyweights as well as by a regulator spring whose force is variable through an adjustment lever characterized by the provision of at least one area of the governor sleeve exposed to a second force other than the damping chamber force, whereby the damping chamber force applies a resulting force on the governor sleeve in the direction of decreasing fuel quantity, which force displaces the governor sleeve toward downward fuel regulation irrespective of the action of the flyweights at the idling position of the adjustment lever but at a higher rpm than the idling rpm.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 41 words
A fuel injection pump in accordance with claim 1, including said tang on which said governor sleeve is disposed in snug-fitting radial relationship for axial displacement, said governor sleeve defining with said tang a chamber which is under delivery pump pressure.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 118 words
A fuel injection pump in accordance with claim 2, wherein said governor sleeve is provided with a bore and is surrounded by fuel under delivery pump pressure within a volume, said governor sleeve bore leading from said chamber defined by said sleeve and said tang to said suction chamber, said tang having a head for the purpose of attaining a supplemental force acting in the centrifugal force direction, said governor sleeve having an interior bore provided with a section of enlarged diameter for slidably accommodating said tang head, said tang head and said section of enlarged diameter defining an annular chamber, and a channel for pressure-relieving said annular chamber towards said sleeve surrounding volume in a sealed manner.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 24 words
A fuel injection pump in accordance with claim 3, wherein said channel extends with said tang in the form of a bore having sections.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 21 words
A fuel injection pump in accordance with claim 4, wherein said channel communicates with the suction side of the delivery pump.
