Abstract

Abstract There is proposed herein that a push rod of a fuel injection pump embodied as a radial piston pump which push rod further has a groove in its base be arranged to positively secure a roller in a relatively fixed position. The push rod is slidably guided in a hollow cylindrical wall in a sleeve. An apertured hub which forms an end wall of the sleeve has a slit, into which a prong which offstands axially from a fastening ring secured to said hub is arranged to protrude into said push rod. A helical spring supported by the sleeve presses a piston of the pump against the inside of the base of the push rod.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 12
Claim 1
Independent Claim 188 words
A fuel injection pump having a housing and rotating distributor supported in a sleeve and a first bore including a cam ring, said cam ring having an inwardly directed cam which via a roller and a spring-loaded push rod and relative rotational movement imparts a pumping stroke to a piston radially guided in said first bore, characterized in that each said push rod further includes a base and a hollow cylinder slidably disposed in a second bore, said base and cylinder disposed coaxially relative to said second bore, said second bore arranged to guide said piston, said base further including means for positional fixation of said roller, a spring plate means fastened to said piston, a spring disposed inside said push rod arranged to press said piston radially outwardly via a spring plate, and said sleeve is provided with openings connecting said second bore with an axial face of said sleeve and being adapted to receive prong means, said prong means being supported by a fastening ring connected to said sleeve and further that said prong means extend into guiding means at said cylinder of said push rod.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 188 words
A fuel injection pump having a housing and rotating distributor supported in a sleeve and a first bore including a cam ring, said cam ring having an inwardly directed cam which via a roller and a spring-loaded push rod and relative rotational movement imparts a pumping stroke to a piston radially guided in said first bore, characterized in that each said push rod further includes a base and a hollow cylinder slidably disposed in a second bore, said base and cylinder disposed coaxially relative to said second bore, said second bore arranged to guide said piston, said base further including means for positional fixation of said roller, a spring plate means fastened to said piston, a spring disposed inside said push rod arranged to press said piston radially outwardly via a spring plate, and said sleeve is provided with openings connecting said second bore with an axial face of said sleeve and being adapted to receive prong means, said prong means being supported by a fastening ring connected to said sleeve and further that said prong means extend into guiding means at said cylinder of said push rod.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 56 words
A pump as defined by claim 1, characterized in that said base is provided with a groove approximating a section of the area of a circle and having the same radius as said roller and further that the depth of said groove is greater than the radius of said section of said area of said circle.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 19 words
A pump as defined by claim 1, characterized in that said spring plate means is secured to said piston.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 39 words
A pump as defined by claim 1, characterized in that said means for positional fixation of said roller comprises an oblong slot, said oblong slot having an extension which is disposed parallel to a stroke direction of said piston.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 20 words
A pump as defined by claim 1, characterized in that said annulus comprises a hub means integrated into said sleeve.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 28 words
A pump as defined by claim 5, characterized in that said fastening ring is made of sheet metal and is fabricated from one piece of metal by stamping.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 209 words
A fuel injection pump having a housing and rotating distributor supported in a sleeve and a first bore including a cam ring, said cam ring having an inwardly directed cam which via a roller and a spring-loaded push rod and relative rotational movement imparts a pumping stroke to a piston radially guided in said first bore, characterized in that each said push rod further includes a base and a hollow cylinder slidably disposed in a second bore, said base and cylinder disposed coaxially relative to said second bore, said second bore arranged to guide said piston, said base further including means for positional fixation of said roller, a spring plate means fastened to said piston, a spring disposed inside said push rod arranged to press said piston radially outwardly via a spring plate, and further that a plurality of bores are radially disposed in said sleeve and a plurality of means defining stroke chambers disposed between a plurality of pistons and means extending axially of said pump, said housing further includes a radially outwardly open annular goove, each said bore having a diameter which is larger than the width of said annular groove, and further that a disassemble impact ring comprising plural elements is inserted into said annular groove.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 209 words
A fuel injection pump having a housing and rotating distributor supported in a sleeve and a first bore including a cam ring, said cam ring having an inwardly directed cam which via a roller and a spring-loaded push rod and relative rotational movement imparts a pumping stroke to a piston radially guided in said first bore, characterized in that each said push rod further includes a base and a hollow cylinder slidably disposed in a second bore, said base and cylinder disposed coaxially relative to said second bore, said second bore arranged to guide said piston, said base further including means for positional fixation of said roller, a spring plate means fastened to said piston, a spring disposed inside said push rod arranged to press said piston radially outwardly via a spring plate, and further that a plurality of bores are radially disposed in said sleeve and a plurality of means defining stroke chambers disposed between a plurality of pistons and means extending axially of said pump, said housing further includes a radially outwardly open annular goove, each said bore having a diameter which is larger than the width of said annular groove, and further that a disassemble impact ring comprising plural elements is inserted into said annular groove.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 24 words
A pump as defined by claim 7, characterized in that said plural elements comprising said impact ring are each provided with complemental locking means.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 26 words
A pump as defined by claim 7 or 8, characterized in that each of said complemental locking means is provided with oppositely disposed interengageable hook means.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim 29 words
A pump as defined by claim 8, characterized in that each of said complemental locking means comprises semi-circular elements having hook-like end portions of the other half pointing inward.
