Abstract
Abstract A regulating device for the supply quantity of an injection pump for internal combustion engines having an electromagnet system as a component of a fuel quantity final control element is proposed. The fuel quantity final control element effects the controlling position of a control member, which fixes the supply onset or end by the injection pump through the closing or opening, respectively, of a relief conduit of the pump work chamber. The fuel quantity final control element includes a linear magnet, which is operationally connected with the control member. In order to transmit the stroke movement or displacement of the armature of the linear magnet onto the control member, a transmission member is provided which includes a rotatably supported adjusting shaft, a crank and an eccentric. The crank and the eccentric are disposed on opposite ends of the adjusting shaft and protrude in opposite directions from one another.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim
147 words
In a fuel injection pump for internal combustion engines, including a reciprocating pump piston having conduit means for distributing pumped fuel to respective engine cylinders, and means for precisely regulating the quantity of fuel pumped, during the compression stroke of said piston, to said cylinders, the improvement comprising: annular means disposed about said piston for selectively blocking said conduits, electromagnetic means for adjusting the position of said blocking means along said piston means, said adjusting means comprises a linear magnet and means, coupling said adjusting means to said blocking means, for transmitting motion of said former to said latter, whereby adjustment of the position of said blocking means along said piston results in said conduit means being selectively blocked at varying times during said compression stroke thus producing larger or smaller quantities of injected fuel and said blocking means comprises a sleeve slidable axially over the piston.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
147 words

Claim 3
Dependent Claim
28 words
The improvement of claim 1 wherein said transmitting means comprises a rotatably supported adjusting shaft having a crank at one end and an eccentric at the opposite end.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
25 words
An improvement of claim 2 wherein the crank is functionally connected with said adjusting means, and the eccentric is functionally connected with said blocking means.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
34 words
The improvement of claim 3, wherein said crank includes a ball attached to its controlling end, said ball engaging a grooved portion of said adjusting means thereby interconnecting said shaft with said adjusting means.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
31 words
The improvement of claim 3, wherein said crank further includes an elongated arm having one end engaged by a play-compensating, tension spring and its opposite end fixedly secured within said pump.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
28 words
The improvement of any one of claims 1, 2-5, wherein the magnetic force of said adjusting means acts via a spring plate upon a conical regulating compression spring.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
31 words
The improvement of any one of claims 1, 2-5, wherein said adjusting means comprises an armature and a cooperating yoke which on adjacent ends are conical for part of their length.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
63 words
The improvement of claim 7 wherein said armature is linearly displaceable relative to said yoke, the armature lying within the vicinity of said yoke at the outer extent of its displacement, said yoke including a cylindrical jacket face having a central opening in which said armature is received, and a bushing lining said opening and secured on said yoke at one end thereof.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
55 words
The improvement of claim 7, further including a guide rod extending in the direction of displacement of the armature and interconnecting said armature with said yoke for supplementally guiding said armature within said yoke, said guide rod being guided within a second bush which is similarly secured on said yoke at an opposite end thereof.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
52 words
The improvement of claim 8 in which the displacement of the armature is measured by a short-circuit ring transducer acting as a fuel quantity feedback means, a ferromagnetic core about which an induction coil is disposed, said core protruding into a short-circuit ring, the latter being firmly connected to said transmitting means.
