Abstract
Abstract An injection instant adjuster for internal combustion engines is proposed, by means of which the mutual rotary position of an off-drive element relative to a driving element is variable at least in accordance with rpm. The injection instant adjuster includes at least two adjusting cams acting as the adjusting mechanism, which during their rotary movements, effected by control elements, control a "late" adjustment (α) of the instant of injection during a first partial rotation (γ) which precedes the "early" adjustment (β) controlled during the further partial rotation (δ). This is possible by means of a suitable selection of the outset position of an adjusting bolt. A detent in the adjusting curve, during which no adjustment takes place within a predetermined rpm range, is controllable at the transition between "late" and "early" adjustment by means of the spring sets comprising at least two adjuster springs, whenever the second adjuster spring is installed in the adjuster with initial stress, with the interposition of a spring plate and acting counter to the adjusting force of the control element.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim
220 words
An injection instant adjuster for Diesel internal combustion engines arranged to vary the mutual rotary position of a driven shaft connected with a fuel injection pump relative to a driving shaft in accordance at least with rpm, said adjuster having at least one control element actuatable counter to the force of a restoring means and having at least one adjusting cam rotatable by said control element and connected between a driving member and a driven element of the adjuster, said adjusting cam further being supported in one of said adjuster elements and coupled with the other element via an eccentric adjusting bolt, characterized in that to attain a "late" adjustment (α) preceding the conventional "early" adjustment (β) of the instant of injection, the outset position of means cooperating with said adjusting cam is designed so that the distance between a connecting line (d) from an axial center of said shafts to the center point (F) of said last-named means and a connecting line (e) from said axial center of said shafts to the center point (B) of said adjusting cam is at first increased, when the rotational direction (C) of said adjusting cam remains the same, in the direction of the "late" adjustment (α) of the instant of injection and is subsequently decreased in the direction of "early" adjustment (β).
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
220 words
An injection instant adjuster for Diesel internal combustion engines arranged to vary the mutual rotary position of a driven shaft connected with a fuel injection pump relative to a driving shaft in accordance at least with rpm, said adjuster having at least one control element actuatable counter to the force of a restoring means and having at least one adjusting cam rotatable by said control element and connected between a driving member and a driven element of the adjuster, said adjusting cam further being supported in one of said adjuster elements and coupled with the other element via an eccentric adjusting bolt, characterized in that to attain a "late" adjustment (α) preceding the conventional "early" adjustment (β) of the instant of injection, the outset position of means cooperating with said adjusting cam is designed so that the distance between a connecting line (d) from an axial center of said shafts to the center point (F) of said last-named means and a connecting line (e) from said axial center of said shafts to the center point (B) of said adjusting cam is at first increased, when the rotational direction (C) of said adjusting cam remains the same, in the direction of the "late" adjustment (α) of the instant of injection and is subsequently decreased in the direction of "early" adjustment (β).
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
105 words
An injection adjuster as defined by claim 1, wherein said means is associated with a compensating cam and supported eccentrically in said adjusting cam, characterized in that in the outset position of said adjusting cam the center point (E) of the compensating cam is located before a connecting line between the center point (F) of said means and the center point (B) of said adjusting cam, and in the same outset position the variable distance between the two latter center points (F and B) is greater than the constant distance between the center points (E and B) of said compensating cam and said adjusting cam.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
62 words
An injection adjuster as defined by claim 2, characterized in that after a first partial rotation (γ) of said adjusting cam controlling the "late" adjustment (α), the center points (B, E and F) of said adjusting cam, compensating cam and said means are located on a straight line, and that the "early" adjustment (β) is controllable during a further partial rotation (δ).
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
75 words
An injection adjuster as defined by claim 1, having said means guided in a radial slit of a guide plate, characterized in that after a first partial rotation (γ) of said adjusting cam, controlling the "late" adjustment (α), a radius (f) of said adjusting cam defined by said center points of said adjusting cam and said means is located perpendicularly on a connecting line (d) between the center of the adjuster (5a) and said means.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
94 words
An injection adjuster as defined by claim 1, having at least two flyweights, engaging the adjusting cams counter to the force of adjusting springs acting as restoring means, said flyweights acting as control elements, characterized in that said adjusting springs comprise spring sets, at least one first adjuster spring of said set controlling only the "late" adjustment (α) up to the point of contact of the flyweights on a spring plate and a second adjuster spring of said set controlling the "early" adjustment (β) and being compressible by the flyweight and said spring plate.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
29 words
An injection adjuster as defined by claim 5, characterized in that said spring plate, in its outset position, is held on a stop means by said second adjuster spring.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
50 words
An injection adjuster as defined by claim 6, characterized in that said second adjuster spring, in the outset position of the spring plate further includes an initial stressing force, which is greater than the spring force of said first adjuster spring when said flyweight is resting on the spring plate.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
23 words
An injection adjuster as defined by claim 5, characterized in that said spring plate is secured between said two sets of adjuster springs.
