Abstract
Abstract A fuel injection device having a pump piston which during the supply stroke pumps fuel from a pump work chamber into an injection line which leads to a fuel injection valve. Directly adjacent to the branching off of the injection line from the pump work chamber, at the diameter of the injection line, a valve seat is provided, at which the injection line then merges with a chamber into which a pressure valve closing member plunges. The valve closing member is tightly guided in a guide bore, loaded by a valve spring, and in the chamber has a pressure shoulder adjoining the sealing surface that cooperates with the valve seat. The rear side of the pressure valve closing member communicates with a continuously open relief line. Because of this construction, the pressure valve closing member operates as an equal-pressure valve and simultaneously as a deflecting piston as well, with the aid of which a pressure rise in the pump work chamber is built up in a retarded manner until such time as the pressure valve closing member comes to rest on a stop. A pressure rise of this type is particularly advantageous in connection with control of the injection phase by means of a magnetic valve subjected to the high pressure.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim
309 words
A fuel injection device for internal combustion engines comprising a pump housing that receives a pump cylinder and a reciprocally driven pump piston being guided therein, a pump work chamber defined by said pump piston within said pump cylinder, a fuel injection valve, a fuel injection line connectable at one end to the fuel injection valve which fuel injection line being arranged to be made to communicate with said pump work chamber at its other end, a pressure valve having a pressure valve closing member guided tightly in a guide cylinder, which pressure valve closing member defining at its rear side a spring chamber receiving a first spring to act upon said valve closing member, means for connecting said spring chamber with a relief chamber through which fuel under pressure that is variable in accordance with engine operating parameters acts upon said rear side of said pressure valve closing member, further said valve closing member being arranged to cooperate with stop means to thereby define the stroke of said valve closing member in said guide cylinder, said valve closing member further having a front side forming a sealing face matching with a valve seat which defines a flow cross section of said injection line, said front side further forming a pressure shoulder which joins said sealing face and defines part of a chamber which chamber is permanently connected to a part of said injection line between said injection valve and said valve seat, said pressure shoulder of said pressure valve closing member is acted upon by the pressure in said injection line between said injection valve and said valve seat of said pressure valve closing member, and a control valve (flow cross section control valve) which provides communication between said pump work chamber and a relief conduit upon the end of the effective supply stroke of said pump piston.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
309 words
A fuel injection device for internal combustion engines comprising a pump housing that receives a pump cylinder and a reciprocally driven pump piston being guided therein, a pump work chamber defined by said pump piston within said pump cylinder, a fuel injection valve, a fuel injection line connectable at one end to the fuel injection valve which fuel injection line being arranged to be made to communicate with said pump work chamber at its other end, a pressure valve having a pressure valve closing member guided tightly in a guide cylinder, which pressure valve closing member defining at its rear side a spring chamber receiving a first spring to act upon said valve closing member, means for connecting said spring chamber with a relief chamber through which fuel under pressure that is variable in accordance with engine operating parameters acts upon said rear side of said pressure valve closing member, further said valve closing member being arranged to cooperate with stop means to thereby define the stroke of said valve closing member in said guide cylinder, said valve closing member further having a front side forming a sealing face matching with a valve seat which defines a flow cross section of said injection line, said front side further forming a pressure shoulder which joins said sealing face and defines part of a chamber which chamber is permanently connected to a part of said injection line between said injection valve and said valve seat, said pressure shoulder of said pressure valve closing member is acted upon by the pressure in said injection line between said injection valve and said valve seat of said pressure valve closing member, and a control valve (flow cross section control valve) which provides communication between said pump work chamber and a relief conduit upon the end of the effective supply stroke of said pump piston.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
39 words
A fuel injection device as defined by claim 1, in which a volume which is enclosed on said rear side of said pressure valve closing member in said guide cylinder communicates via a controllable throttle with said relief chamber.
