Abstract

Abstract The invention relates to a control apparatus for the variation of the onset of supply by a fuel injection pump having an adjustment piston engaging the piston cam drive, the adjustment piston under rpm-dependent pressure being adjustable counter to a restoring force by a fluid located in a work chamber of the adjustment piston, and an assembly for prolonging the supply time and at least during pump supply on the basis of the restoring and reactionary force including displacing the adjustment piston counter to the fluid pressure.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim 204 words
A control apparatus for the variation of the onset of supply by a fuel injection pump having a cam drive, the control apparatus including: a fluid supply pump connected to the engine and the fuel injection pump to provide fluid at an rpm-dependent pressure to the fuel injection pump. an adjustment piston connected to the cam drive to adjust cam drive position, and having a work chamber connected to the fluid supply pump such that the fluid provides a biasing force to the work chamber which biases the adjustment piston in a first direction; a restoring means connected to the adjustment piston and which generates a restoring force to bias the adjustment piston in a second direction; wherein the adjustment piston is connected to the supply pump and the cam drive such that the cam drive generates a reactionary force to bias the adjustment piston in the second direction upon actuation of the supply pump; a control means connected to the work chamber which controls fluid flow out of the work chamber such that the adjustment piston is displaced in the second direction in response to the restoring force and the reactionary force to prolong the supply of fuel to the fuel injection pump.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 204 words
A control apparatus for the variation of the onset of supply by a fuel injection pump having a cam drive, the control apparatus including: a fluid supply pump connected to the engine and the fuel injection pump to provide fluid at an rpm-dependent pressure to the fuel injection pump. an adjustment piston connected to the cam drive to adjust cam drive position, and having a work chamber connected to the fluid supply pump such that the fluid provides a biasing force to the work chamber which biases the adjustment piston in a first direction; a restoring means connected to the adjustment piston and which generates a restoring force to bias the adjustment piston in a second direction; wherein the adjustment piston is connected to the supply pump and the cam drive such that the cam drive generates a reactionary force to bias the adjustment piston in the second direction upon actuation of the supply pump; a control means connected to the work chamber which controls fluid flow out of the work chamber such that the adjustment piston is displaced in the second direction in response to the restoring force and the reactionary force to prolong the supply of fuel to the fuel injection pump.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 44 words
A control apparatus as defined in claim 1, wherein the control means is a check valve which opens in response to an opening force that is greater than the restoring force, and smaller than the sum of the restoring force and the reactionary force.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 35 words
A control apparatus as defined in claim 2 also including a blocking means connected to the check valve and the engine to block the check valve from opening at engine rpm above engine idling rpm.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 18 words
A control apparatus as defined in claim 1, wherein the control means is an electromagnetically actuated multiple-position valve.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 61 words
A control apparatus as defined in claim 4, also including a relief means connected to relieve the fluid from the fuel injection pump, wherein, when the multiple-position valve is in a first position, the work chamber is connected to the supply pump, and when the multiple-position valve is in a second position, the work chamber is connected to the relief means.
