Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim 94 words
A fuel injection pump for internal combustion engines, including a housing and having an arbitrarily actuatable lever for adjusting injection quantity moving through a lever path and an adjustable stop associated with said lever for determining the minimum injection quantity characterized in that said stop includes a rotatable cam disc displayed perpendicularly relative to the plane of said lever path and a bimetallic spiral for rotational adjustment of said cam disc relative to said stop, wherein said stop further includes a spiral spring which serves to return said cam disc to a restoring position.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 94 words
A fuel injection pump for internal combustion engines, including a housing and having an arbitrarily actuatable lever for adjusting injection quantity moving through a lever path and an adjustable stop associated with said lever for determining the minimum injection quantity characterized in that said stop includes a rotatable cam disc displayed perpendicularly relative to the plane of said lever path and a bimetallic spiral for rotational adjustment of said cam disc relative to said stop, wherein said stop further includes a spiral spring which serves to return said cam disc to a restoring position.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 134 words
A fuel injection pump for internal combustion engines, including a housing and having an arbitrarily actuatable lever for adjusting injection quantity moving through a lever path and an adjustable stop associated with said lever for determining the minimum injection quantity characterized in that said stop includes a rotatable cam disc disposed perpendicularly relative to the plane of said lever path and a bimetallic spiral for rotational adjustment of said cam disc relative to said stop, wherein said housing further includes means to house said bimetallic spiral which engages a rotational lever carried by a shaft arranged to cooperate with said cam disc, wherein the fuel injection pump also includes a spiral spring disposed in said means to house said bimetallic spring, wherein said spiral spring includes a free end which engages the rotation lever.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 134 words
A fuel injection pump for internal combustion engines, including a housing and having an arbitrarily actuatable lever for adjusting injection quantity moving through a lever path and an adjustable stop associated with said lever for determining the minimum injection quantity characterized in that said stop includes a rotatable cam disc disposed perpendicularly relative to the plane of said lever path and a bimetallic spiral for rotational adjustment of said cam disc relative to said stop, wherein said housing further includes means to house said bimetallic spiral which engages a rotational lever carried by a shaft arranged to cooperate with said cam disc, wherein the fuel injection pump also includes a spiral spring disposed in said means to house said bimetallic spring, wherein said spiral spring includes a free end which engages the rotation lever.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 124 words
A fuel injection pump for internal combustion engines, including a housing and having an arbitrarily actuatable lever for adjusting injection quantity moving through a lever path and an adjustable stop associated with said lever for determining the minimum injection quantity characterized in that said stop includes a rotatable cam disc disposed perpendicularly relative to the plane of said lever path and a bimetallic spiral for rotational adjustment of said cam disc relative to said stop, wherein said housing further includes means to house said bimetallic spiral which engages a rotation lever carried by a shaft arranged to cooperate with said cam disc, and wherein said cam disc is spaced from said means to house said bimetallic spiral and a plastic disc is disposed therebetween.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 124 words
A fuel injection pump for internal combustion engines, including a housing and having an arbitrarily actuatable lever for adjusting injection quantity moving through a lever path and an adjustable stop associated with said lever for determining the minimum injection quantity characterized in that said stop includes a rotatable cam disc disposed perpendicularly relative to the plane of said lever path and a bimetallic spiral for rotational adjustment of said cam disc relative to said stop, wherein said housing further includes means to house said bimetallic spiral which engages a rotation lever carried by a shaft arranged to cooperate with said cam disc, and wherein said cam disc is spaced from said means to house said bimetallic spiral and a plastic disc is disposed therebetween.
