Abstract

Abstract A fuel injection pump for internal combustion engines is proposed which has a hydraulic injection instant adjuster, which is exposed to an rpm-dependent pressure established with the aid of a pressure control valve. The control of the pressure control valve is effected by means of varying the control pressure acting upon it. This is accomplished with the aid of a pressure valve, which has a slide exposed to a force variable in accordance with altitude, and the control pressure of the pressure control valve can be modified by means of this slide.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim 256 words
A fuel injection pump for internal combustion engines comprising a fuel supply pump driven in synchronism with the fuel injection pump, a pressure side of said fuel supply pump arranged to communicate with a work chamber ahead of an adusting piston, said adjusting piston serves to adjust the injection onset and is exposed to a restoring force in a chamber connected via a discharge line to a discharge opening, said discharge opening being controlled by a control piston of a pressure control valve including a relief chamber in order to generate an rpm-dependent control pressure at the pressure side of said pressure control valve, said control piston being exposed to a restoring force and further arranged to enclose on one side a control pressure chamber, said control pressure chamber being in communication with said pressure side of said fuel supply pump via a throttle connection and with said relief chamber via a relief line connected with a pressure valve including a housing, a valve closing member which is exposed to a valve spring, the initial stress of said valve spring being variable by means of a support point which is displaceable in accordance with air pressure, in which said valve closing member of said pressure valve comprises a slide means, and a control line branches off from said relief line between a pressure maintenance valve and said pressure valve, said control line leading to an adjusting device for adjusting a fuel injection quantity and to a further adjusting device for affecting an exhaust gas recirculation quantity.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 256 words
A fuel injection pump for internal combustion engines comprising a fuel supply pump driven in synchronism with the fuel injection pump, a pressure side of said fuel supply pump arranged to communicate with a work chamber ahead of an adusting piston, said adjusting piston serves to adjust the injection onset and is exposed to a restoring force in a chamber connected via a discharge line to a discharge opening, said discharge opening being controlled by a control piston of a pressure control valve including a relief chamber in order to generate an rpm-dependent control pressure at the pressure side of said pressure control valve, said control piston being exposed to a restoring force and further arranged to enclose on one side a control pressure chamber, said control pressure chamber being in communication with said pressure side of said fuel supply pump via a throttle connection and with said relief chamber via a relief line connected with a pressure valve including a housing, a valve closing member which is exposed to a valve spring, the initial stress of said valve spring being variable by means of a support point which is displaceable in accordance with air pressure, in which said valve closing member of said pressure valve comprises a slide means, and a control line branches off from said relief line between a pressure maintenance valve and said pressure valve, said control line leading to an adjusting device for adjusting a fuel injection quantity and to a further adjusting device for affecting an exhaust gas recirculation quantity.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 79 words
A fuel injection pump as defined by claim 1, characterized in that said pressure valve further includes a reference pressure chamber enclosed in the housing of said pressure valve and connected to a reference pressure source, one side of said reference pressure chamber being closed by a movable adjusting member and the other side thereof being exposed to atmospheric pressure and in operative connection with said valve spring of said pressure valve in order to effect an initial stress.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 87 words
A fuel injection pump as defined by claim 2, characterized in that said reference pressure chamber of said pressure valve is in parallel relation to a second reference pressure chamber which is closed off with respect to the atmosphere with a second movable adjusting member stressed by a second control spring, said second reference chamber being connected to said reference pressure source and further said second movable adjusting member is in operative connection with said adjusting device of the fuel injection quantity of said fuel injection pump.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 45 words
A fuel injection pump as defined by claim 3, characterized in that parallel to said reference pressure chamber of said pressure valve, a third reference pressure chamber of said further adjusting device for the exhaust gas recirculation quantity metering communicates with said reference pressure source.
