Fuel injection pump for internal combustion engines

Claim 2

A fuel injection pump for internal combustion engines having a pump piston, said pump piston including an end face and a circumference, said pump piston being guided in a cylinder bushing arranged to supply fuel from a pump work chamber defined by the pump piston, said cylinder bushing comprising a fuel inflow opening therein, a control face including an oblique control edge on the circumference of said pump piston arranged to define an at least partial circumferential groove in said pump piston, the relative location of the control edge with respect to the inflow opening adapted to determine the opening and closing of the inflow opening, said at least partial circumference groove being located below said control face in a stroke direction, a longitudinal passage which extends from said end face of said piston to said at least partial circumferential groove in said piston, a leakage connection positioned between the pump work chamber and the inflow opening, said leakage connection arranged to be effective at the beginning of a pump piston supply stroke, said leakage connection having a groove means extending along a portion of the circumference of said pump piston in said control face of said pump piston parallel to and spaced apart by a short distance from an end face of said piston which defines said pump work chamber, said leakage connection including a blind bore arranged to discharge in said piston end face and a plurality of throttle bores disposed at an angular distance (Δα) from one another which connect said blind bore with the bottom of said groove means, wherein said groove means includes a lower edge portion remote from said piston end face and wherein the distance from said piston end face to said lower edge portion of said groove means being dimensioned in accordance with a desired timing shift of supply onset with respect to closing of said inflow opening at low rpm, and said groove means and said at least one throttle bore extend in the same cross-sectional plane of said pump piston.

Claim 3

A fuel injection pump for internal combustion engines having a pump piston, said pump piston including an end face and a circumference, said pump piston being guided in a cylinder bushing arranged to supply fuel from a pump work chamber defined by the pump piston, said cylinder bushing comprising a fuel inflow opening therein, a supply quantity adjusting member for adjusting the rotation of said pump piston with respect to said inflow opening, a control face including an oblique control edge on the circumference of said pump piston arranged to define an at least partial circumferential groove in said pump piston, the relative location of the control edge with respect to the inflow opening adapted to determine the opening and closing of the inflow opening, said at least partial circumferential groove being located below said control face in a stroke direction, a longitudinal passage which extends from said end face of said piston to said at least partial circumferential groove in said piston, a leakage connection positioned between the pump work chamber and the inflow opening, said leakage connection arranged to be effective at the beginning of a pump piston supply stroke, said leakage connection having a groove means extending along a portion of the circumference of said pump piston in said control face of said pump piston parallel to and spaced apart by a short distance from an end face of said piston which defines said pump work chamber, said groove means being spaced apart from said longitudinal passage and extends over at least a portion of the rotational adjustment travel of said pump piston, said leakage connection including a blind bore arranged to discharge in said piston end face and at least one throttle bore which connects said blind bore with the bottom of said groove means, wherein said groove means includes a lower edge portion remote from said piston end face and wherein the distance from said piston end face to said lower edge portion of said groove means being dimensioned in accordance with a desired timing shift of supply onset with respect to closing of said inflow opening at low rpm, and said groove means and said at least one throttle bore extend in the same cross-sectional plane of said pump piston.

Claim 4

A fuel injection pump for internal combustion engines having a pump piston, said pump piston including an end face and a circumference, said pump piston being guided in a cylinder bushing arranged to supply fuel from a pump work chamber defined by the pump piston, said cylinder bushing comprising a fuel inflow opening therein, a supply quantity adjusting member for adjusting the rotation of said pump piston with respect to said inflow opening, a control face including an oblique control edge on the circumference of said pump piston arranged to define an at least partial circumferential groove in said pump piston, the relative location of the control edge with respect to the inflow opening adapted to determine the opening and closing of the inflow opening, said at least partial circumferential groove being located below said control face in a stroke direction, a longitudinal passage which extends from said end face of said piston to said at least partial circumferential groove in said piston, a leakage connection positioned between the pump work chamber and the inflow opening, said leakage connection arranged to be effective at the beginning of a pump piston supply stroke, said leakage connection having a groove means extending along a portion of the circumference of said pump piston in said control face of said pump piston parallel to and spaced apart by a short distance from an end face of said piston which defines said pump work chamber, said groove means being spaced apart from said longitudinal passage and extends over at least a portion of the rotational adjustment travel of said pump piston, said leakage connection including a blind bore arranged to discharge in said piston end face and at least one throttle bore which connects said blind bore with the bottom of said groove means, wherein said groove means includes a lower edge portion remote from said piston end face and wherein the distance from said piston end face to said lower edge portion of said groove means being dimensioned in accordance with a desired timing shift of supply onset with respect to closing of said inflow opening at low rpm, and said groove means and said at least one throttle bore extend in the same cross-sectional plane of said pump piston.
