Fuel injection pump for internal combustion engines

Claim 1

A fuel injection pump for internal combustion engines having a piston defining a work chamber and having a constant pressure relief valve disposed in a pressure line, a valve closing means of said pressure valve opening in the supply direction of the fuel counter to the force of a restoring spring and arranged in a valve carrier means and provided with a relief valve means, a movable valve-closing member of said relief valve means opening against the supply direction of the fuel and biased by a spring means supported on said valve closing means against a valve seat face disposed in a bore of said valve closing means, and a bolt means positioned into two openings disposed at right angles to the longitudinal axis of said valve closing means in the wall of said constant pressure relief valve, said openings receiving said bolt means comprise a bore drilled through the cylindrical wall of said valve closing means at right angles to the longitudinal axis of said valve closing means, and said spring means cooperating with said movable valve-closing member of said relief valve means being supported on a central section of said bolt means by interposition of a spring plate means, wherein said bolt means is provided with a depression in said central section for receiving said spring plate means, and wherein said bolt means is in the form of a bar whose basic cross sectional configuration is that of a circular surface, the diameter of which corresponds to the diameter of said bore, and said bar having two end sections each having at least one flattened zone disposed in a plane parallel to the plane of said depression.
