Abstract:
A camshaft (24), in particular for a pump (10), is proposed. The camshaft (24) has at least two cams (26, 28) which are arranged next to one another in the direction of the longitudinal axis (25) of the camshaft (24) and the cam elevations of which are arranged offset with respect to one another around the longitudinal axis (25) of the camshaft (24). An intermediate region (30) is provided between two adjacent cams (26, 28), and at least one bearing region (32) is arranged next to the cams (26, 28) in the direction of the longitudinal axis (25) of the camshaft (24). The intermediate region (30) runs in axial longitudinal sections which contain the longitudinal axis (25) of the camshaft (24), at a radial spacing (r1, r2) from the longitudinal axis (25) of the camshaft (24), which radial spacing (r1, r2), starting from the adjacent cam (26) with the smaller cam elevation (h1) in the respective axial longitudinal section, increases towards the adjacent cam (28) with the greater cam elevation (h2) in the respective axial longitudinal section.

Abstract:
A tappet assembly for use in translating force between a camshaft lobe and a fuel pump assembly via reciprocal movement within a tappet cylinder having a guide slot. The tappet assembly includes a bearing assembly having a shaft and a bearing rotatably supported by the shaft for engaging the lobe. An intermediate element has a first aperture, a shelf for engaging the fuel pump assembly, and a pair of arc-shaped bearing surfaces rotatably engaging the shaft when the bearing engages the lobe and the shelf engages the fuel pump assembly. An annular body has a second aperture and at least one stop member abutting the intermediate element to align the first aperture with the second aperture. An anti-rotation clip is disposed so as to extend through the apertures and cooperates with the stop member to substantially prevent rotational and axial movement of the intermediate element with respect to the body.
Abstract:
First and second recessed portions are respectively formed on first and second wall surfaces of a cam chamber, in order that a plunger head and a coil spring would not come in touch with the first and second wall surfaces even in such a virtual situation. In the virtual situation, it is supposed that the plunger head would be separated from a plunger, the plunger head remains in contact with a contact surface of a cam ring so that the plunger head would not move relative to the contact surface, and a cam member would be continuously rotated.
Abstract:
A radial piston pump for supplying fuel at high-pressure to an internal combustion engine has a compression chamber arranged in a displacement housing, a reciprocating piston arranged in a cylinder chamber, a suction valve connected to a fuel supply line and has a spring-loaded closure body, an intermediate piece, a threaded pin and a pressure valve which is connected to a fuel outlet line. The closing body of the suction valve is embodied as a valve end pad with the spring exerting a force on the front end thereof. The valve end pad has a closure collar and at least two channels that are distributed around the periphery and which adjoin the closure collar and a base plate. A stop plate comprising an additional base plate borders the closure collar of the valve end pad as an intermediate piece to which the threaded pin is connected.
Abstract:
A high-pressure pump having a rotationally driven drive shaft and at least one pump element which has a pump piston driven at least indirectly in a reciprocating motion by the drive shaft which piston is guided in a cylinder bore and with its end remote from the drive shaft defines a pump work chamber. The pump piston is braced at least indirectly on the drive shaft. Extending through the pump piston is at least one line which discharges at the circumference of the pump piston in the cylinder bore spaced apart from the end of the pump piston that defines the pump work chamber and which leads toward the drive shaft to the region where the pump piston is braced.
Abstract:
An hydraulic head features two or three individual radial pumping pistons and associated pumping chambers, annularly spaced around a cavity in the head where an eccentric drive member with associated outer rolling actuation ring are situated, whereby a rolling interaction is provided between the actuating ring and the inner ends of the pistons for intermittent actuation, and a sliding interaction is provided between the actuation ring and the drive member. The respective inlet and outlet valve trains are also situated in the head, and the head is attachable to an application and/or customer specific mounting plate. The outside diameter of the rolling element is barrel shaped, to compensate for any misalignment of the pistons relative to the drive shaft due, for example, to either tolerance stack up or deflection.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a radial piston pump unit for a high pressure injection system with a pump housing in which a driveshaft with an eccentric section is mounted. A reciprocating ring sits on the above section and drives at least one spring-loaded piston which may be displaced in a direction radial to the drive axis. The driveshaft is embodied to comprise an end region which as a floating mounting and is also the drive for a fuel supply pump.

Abstract:
A pump and associated method including the steps of pre-metering successive quantities of fuel from a reservoir to a positive displacement transfer pump, then actuating the transfer pump to raise the pressure of the successive quantities of fuel by at least about 100 psi, preferably 200-300 psi. Each quantity of fuel which was pressurized in the transfer pump, is delivered to a high pressure pumping chamber so that each pumping bore receives a certain, i.e., predetermined, charge of fuel within a first time interval. A plurality of plungers in the respective pumping bores are then simultaneously actuated to increase the pressure in the pumping chamber to the desired high pressure, preferably at least about 15,000 psi, within a second time interval, and to discharge the quantity of fuel through a high pressure discharge valve. The second time interval is of longer duration than the first time interval. As a result, the necessary quantity of fuel can be delivered to the pumping chamber in a relatively short time period. Therefore, each pumping plunger can be actuated by a dual rate cam profile over a relatively long time period such that at steady state the actuation occurs only along a relatively shallow slope of the cam profile, whereas when acceleration is required, the actuation can occur more quickly, along a steeper profile, before continuing along the relatively shallow profile.
