Abstract
Abstract A fuel injection pump is proposed in which the quantity adjustment member has a travel limitation device in the form of an adjustable stop, which is adjusted in accordance with the displacement of an adjusting piston in accordance with a contour formed in the jacket face thereon. The displacement of the adjusting piston is effected via rpm-dependent pressure of the suction chamber counter to the force of a restoring spring and counter to a pressure which can be established with the aid of a pressure control valve in accordance with engine operating parameters. The adjustment of the stop is thus effected with the high work capacity of the suction chamber pressure, and the limitation of the adjustment is attained with the aid of the modulated pressure diverted from the suction chamber pressure.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
198 words
A fuel-injection pump for internal combustion engines having a fuel quantity adjusting member arranged to traverse a travel and means associated therewith for varying said travel operable as an adjusting device, said adjusting device comprising an adjusting piston disposed in a cylinder, said piston being adjustable counter to a restoring spring, the travel of said quantity adjusting member being varied in accordance with movement of said adjusting piston via a transmission means, said adjusting piston being provided with two opposite extremities, a first of which defines with said cylinder a work chamber, said work chamber being filled with a fluid source of pressure, said pressure being varied in accordance with rpm of said fuel injection pump, characterized in that the second extremity of said adjusting piston defines with said cylinder a pressure chamber in which said restoring spring is disposed, said pressure chamber being filled with a fluid source of pressure and communicating with means for varying said pressure therein in accordance with at least one operating parameter of the engine and said pressure in said pressure chamber serves to supplement a force supplied by said restoring spring, whereby an adjusting force is applied to said adjusting piston.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
198 words
A fuel-injection pump for internal combustion engines having a fuel quantity adjusting member arranged to traverse a travel and means associated therewith for varying said travel operable as an adjusting device, said adjusting device comprising an adjusting piston disposed in a cylinder, said piston being adjustable counter to a restoring spring, the travel of said quantity adjusting member being varied in accordance with movement of said adjusting piston via a transmission means, said adjusting piston being provided with two opposite extremities, a first of which defines with said cylinder a work chamber, said work chamber being filled with a fluid source of pressure, said pressure being varied in accordance with rpm of said fuel injection pump, characterized in that the second extremity of said adjusting piston defines with said cylinder a pressure chamber in which said restoring spring is disposed, said pressure chamber being filled with a fluid source of pressure and communicating with means for varying said pressure therein in accordance with at least one operating parameter of the engine and said pressure in said pressure chamber serves to supplement a force supplied by said restoring spring, whereby an adjusting force is applied to said adjusting piston.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
62 words
A fuel injection pump as defined by claim 1, further characterized in that said means for varying pressure in said pressure chamber includes an uncoupling throttle in communication with a pressure source and further includes a pressure control valve provided with a relief chamber, said pressure control valve controlling pressure to said pressure chamber dependent upon said at least one operating parameter.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
51 words
A fuel injection pump as defined by claim 2, further characterized in that the pressure control valve is provided with a control slide displaceable via an adjusting member in accordance with said at least one operating parameter counter to a second restoring spring, said displaceable control slide controlling a relief passage.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
93 words
A fuel injection pump as defined by claim 2, further characterized in that the pressure control valve is provided with a control slide displaceably disposed in a bore, said control slide being provided with end faces, a first end face serving to seal a chamber communicating with the pressure chamber and being subjected to a spring, an initial force of which spring varies in accordance with said at least one operating parameter, said pressure control valve being further provided with a control edge associated with said control slide for controlling a relief passage.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
69 words
A fuel injection pump as defined by claim 3 or 4, characterized in that said control slide is provided with an annular groove communicating continuously via a pressure line with the pressure chamber and said relief passage comprises a limiting edge having a longitudinal extent provided on said control slide, said longitudinal extent adapted to be revealed upon movement of said control slide with relation to a control edge.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
54 words
A fuel injection pump as defined by claim 5, further characterized in that said control slide has a jacket face, the limiting edge defines a recess branching off from the annular groove on said jacket face, and the control edge comprises a transitional edge between the bore and a relief chamber of enlarged diameter.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
87 words
A fuel injection pump as defined by claim 1, characterized in that a pressure line leads from the source of pressure to a second throttle and an uncoupling throttle disposed in series therein, and finally to the pressure chamber, a relief line is provided to the pressure line between the second throttle and the uncoupling throttle, and the relief line includes a pressure limiting valve, whereby pressure prevailing between the two throttles can be held at a constant value while the fuel injection pump is in operation.
