Abstract
Abstract A fuel injection pump including an injected amount determining high pressure chamber for determining an injected amount of fuel and an injection timing determining high pressure chamber for determining an injection timing of fuel, with the high pressure chambers being provided independently of each other. A shuttle is disposed in at least the injected amount determining high pressure chamber to form an injection fuel chamber and a pressurization chamber. The injection timing determining high pressure chamber is disconnected from the pressurization chamber in the supply process of fuel for determining the injected amount and fuel for determining the injection timing, and the injection timing determining high pressure chamber is communicated with the pressurization chamber in the fuel injection process. The shuttle for determining the injection timing is not influenced by the fuel for determining the injected amount at the time when the fuel for determining the injected amount is supplied.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim
308 words
A fuel injection pump comprising: rotary shaft means adapted to be rotated within a sleeve means in a predetermined timed relationship with respect to a rotation of an internal combustion engine; a first high pressure chamber means axially formed inside said rotor shaft for determining an injected amount of fuel; shuttle means disposed in said first high pressure chamber means for dividing the same into an injection fuel chamber means and a pressurization chamber means, said shuttle means being freely movable in said first high pressure chamber means; plunger means for pressurizing fuel in said second high pressure chamber means in a predetermined timed relationship with respect to the rotation of the internal combustion engine; first fuel supply passage means formed in the sleeve means for supplying injection fuel to said injection fuel chamber means; discharge passage means formed in said sleeve means for discharging fuel in said pressurization chamber means to a lower pressure side when fuel is supplied to said injection fuel chamber means; a second high pressure chamber means for determining an injection timing of fuel, said second high pressure chamber means being fuild-tightly isolated from said pressurization chamber means when fuel is supplied to said injection fuel chamber means; second fuel supply passage means formed in said sleeve means for supplying fuel for determining the injection timing to said second high pressure chamber means when fuel is supplied to said injection chamber means; connection passage means formed in said sleeve means for communicating said pressurization chamber means with said second high pressure chamber means when fuel in said second high pressure chamber means is pressurized by said plunger means; and fuel outlet passage means formed in said sleeve means for introducing fuel in said injection fuel chamber to a fuel injection valve means when fuel in said second high pressure chamber means is pressurized.
