Abstract

Abstract Cylindrical sleeve having a top portion of enlarged diameter which includes a control bore and which is clamped by an annular screw against a shoulder of a reception bore in the pump housing. An annular screw has, in a widened bore portion at least partially surrounding the top portion of the cylindrical sleeve, a pressure shoulder which is recessed relative to the end face of the annular screw presented to the suction chamber and which transmits the clamping force to the cylindrical sleeve. In a further refinement, the annular screw is provided with an annular extension which surrounds the cylindrical sleeve at a distance therefrom in the region of the control bore and whose inner wall forms a protection against impingement of the jet of fuel emerging from the control bore upon the termination of fuel delivery. A widened portion of the bore for receiving the valve member of the pressure valve is disposed in a second portion of the delivery bore which branches laterally, preferably at right angles, from a first portion of the delivery bore which extends coaxially of the longitudinal axis of the pump cylinder, and a screw plug is screwed into an extension of the said first portion. After the screw plug has been removed, the measuring sensor of a pre-stroke measuring device can be mounted onto the pump piston through the first portion of the delivery bore, and thus the dimension of the pre-stroke can be determined.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim 232 words
A fuel injection pump for internal combustion engines, particularly a plug-in pump having a drive side for diesel engines, comprising: a housing defining a reception bore having a threaded opening to the drive side and a shoulder which is opposite the threaded opening and partly defining a suction chamber; a cylindrical sleeve secured to the reception bore, said sleeve defining a pump piston bore within which a working chamber is defined, and a top portion of larger diameter within which at least one control bore is defined; a pump piston mounted within the pump piston bore for axial and rotational movement therein, said piston having a control edge which serves the purpose of varying the fuel delivery quantity and cooperates with said at least one control bore in said sleeve for varying the communications between the suction chamber and the working chamber; and an annular screw which engages the reception bore opening such that the annular screw generates a force toward the reception bore shoulder to clamp the top portion of the sleeve against the reception bore shoulder, wherein: the annular screw includes a widened bore portion which surrounds a portion of the top portion of the sleeve, said widened bore portion defining an end face, facing the suction chamber, and a pressure shoulder recessed relative to the end face, said pressure shoulder serving to transmit the clamping force to the sleeve.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 232 words
A fuel injection pump for internal combustion engines, particularly a plug-in pump having a drive side for diesel engines, comprising: a housing defining a reception bore having a threaded opening to the drive side and a shoulder which is opposite the threaded opening and partly defining a suction chamber; a cylindrical sleeve secured to the reception bore, said sleeve defining a pump piston bore within which a working chamber is defined, and a top portion of larger diameter within which at least one control bore is defined; a pump piston mounted within the pump piston bore for axial and rotational movement therein, said piston having a control edge which serves the purpose of varying the fuel delivery quantity and cooperates with said at least one control bore in said sleeve for varying the communications between the suction chamber and the working chamber; and an annular screw which engages the reception bore opening such that the annular screw generates a force toward the reception bore shoulder to clamp the top portion of the sleeve against the reception bore shoulder, wherein: the annular screw includes a widened bore portion which surrounds a portion of the top portion of the sleeve, said widened bore portion defining an end face, facing the suction chamber, and a pressure shoulder recessed relative to the end face, said pressure shoulder serving to transmit the clamping force to the sleeve.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 93 words
The fuel injection pump as defined in claim 1, wherein: the annular screw further includes an annular extension which defines said end face, said annular extension surrounds the top portion of the sleeve in the region of said at least one control bore at a distance therefrom which does not obstruct flow of fuel between the suction chamber and the working chamber, with the interior wall of the annular extension serving as a baffle for protection against the fuel jet emerging from said at least one control bore upon termination of fuel delivery.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 24 words
The fuel injection pump as defined in claim 2, wherein: at least the interior wall of the annular extension is made from hardened steel.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 79 words
The fuel injection pump as defined in claim 1, further comprising: a delivery bore including a first portion arranged in line with the pump piston bore, and a second portion branching laterally, preferably at right angles, from the first portion; and a pressure valve accommodated within the second portion of the delivery bore, said pressure valve having a pipe connection in the form of a screw nipple for connecting a pressure line of an injection nozzle to the pump.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 50 words
The fuel injection pump as defined in claim 4, further comprising: a screw plug, and wherein: the delivery bore further includes an extension of the first portion into which the screw plug is screwed, said screw plug being removable for the purpose of measuring the pre-stroke of the pump piston.
