Abstract
Abstract In an apparatus operable with an injection pump of a diesel motor whereby the injection pump has an output setting element and a shut-off element, the output setting element is controllable by a digital control device. Also, the shut-off element is pulsatingly controllable by the digital control device such that a predetermined rotational speed of the diesel motor is achieved.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 15
Claim 1
Independent Claim
145 words
An apparatus operable with an injection pump of a diesel motor, wherein the injection pump has a power output setting element and a fuel shut-off element, each of said elements comprising a mechanical actuator, and wherein further the output setting element is regulatable by a digital control device, the apparatus further comprising the digital control device; and wherein the shut-off element is pulsatingly controllable from the digital control device to attain a predetermined rotational speed of the diesel motor; pulsating control by the digital control device being operative, upon indication of defect in control of the output setting element, to command the shut-off element to shut off the motor until motor rotation drops below a predetermined value of rotation, after which drop in motor rotation the digital control device commands the shut-off element to admit sufficient fuel to maintain a reduced speed of motor rotation.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
145 words
An apparatus operable with an injection pump of a diesel motor, wherein the injection pump has a power output setting element and a fuel shut-off element, each of said elements comprising a mechanical actuator, and wherein further the output setting element is regulatable by a digital control device, the apparatus further comprising the digital control device; and wherein the shut-off element is pulsatingly controllable from the digital control device to attain a predetermined rotational speed of the diesel motor; pulsating control by the digital control device being operative, upon indication of defect in control of the output setting element, to command the shut-off element to shut off the motor until motor rotation drops below a predetermined value of rotation, after which drop in motor rotation the digital control device commands the shut-off element to admit sufficient fuel to maintain a reduced speed of motor rotation.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
20 words
The apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the digital control device and the shut-off element form a two point controller.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
24 words
The apparatus according to claim 1, further comprising a positioning member operable with a suitable engine cycle frequency for achieving a linear setting behavior.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
27 words
The apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the pulsating control of the shut-off element is releasable by a defect with a control of the output setting element.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
21 words
The apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the pulsating control of the shut-off element is releasable upon exceeding of operating conditions.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
52 words
The apparatus according to claim 1, further comprising means for connecting a signal, emitted by the digital control device, with a signal provided further for turning off the diesel motor, said connecting means being connected between the shut-off element and an output, provided for the shut-off element, of the digital control device.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
32 words
The apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the digital control device stores various predetermined rotational speeds, to which rotational speeds the motor is controlled, depending upon the type of an existing defect.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
97 words
A failsafe apparatus operable with an injection pump of a diesel motor, wherein the injection pump has an output setting element and a shut-off element, each of said elements comprising a mechanical actuator, the apparatus further comprising a digital control device, and wherein the output setting element is regulatable by the digital control device; in case of a failure of the output setting element, the output setting element is releasable from the digital control device; and the shut-off element is pulsatingly controllable from the digital control device to attain a predetermined rotational speed of the diesel motor.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
97 words
A failsafe apparatus operable with an injection pump of a diesel motor, wherein the injection pump has an output setting element and a shut-off element, each of said elements comprising a mechanical actuator, the apparatus further comprising a digital control device, and wherein the output setting element is regulatable by the digital control device; in case of a failure of the output setting element, the output setting element is releasable from the digital control device; and the shut-off element is pulsatingly controllable from the digital control device to attain a predetermined rotational speed of the diesel motor.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
20 words
The apparatus according to claim 8, wherein the digital control device and the shut-off element form a two point controller.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim
24 words
The apparatus according to claim 8, further comprising a positioning member operable with a suitable engine cycle frequency for achieving a linear setting behavior.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim
21 words
The apparatus according to claim 8, wherein the pulsating control of the shut-off element is releasable upon exceeding of operating conditions.
Claim 14
Dependent Claim
52 words
The apparatus according to claim 8, further comprising means for connecting a signal, emitted by the digital control device, with a signal provided further for turning off the diesel motor, said connecting means being connected between the shut-off element and an output, provided for the shut-off element, of the digital control device.
Claim 15
Dependent Claim
34 words
The apparatus according to claim 8, wherein the digital control device stores various predetermined rotational speeds, to which rotational speeds the motor is controlled, depending upon the type of an existing defect or failure.
