Fuel injection pump
First Claim
1. A distribution fuel injection pump for delivering fuel to a plurality of injection nozzles of an internal combustion engine, said distribution fuel injection pump comprising an inlet communicating with a source of fuel;
- an outlet for delivering fuel to the injection nozzles;
a pump working space communicating with said inlet and outlet;
at least one pump plunger defining at least partially said pump working space;
a rotatable distributor piston having a distributor bore communicating said pump working space with said outlet; and
a control valve for controlling fluid flow through said outlet, said distributor piston comprising a relief bore communicating with a relief space, said control valve comprising a valve opening located in said distributor piston and connecting said distribution and relief bores, a valve member located in said distributor piston for controlling fluid flow through said valve opening to thereby control the fluid flow between said distribution bore and said relief bore, and an electromagnet for controlling movement of said valve member;
said distributor piston comprising an axial guide bore, said valve member being formed as a valve needle having an end remote from said valve opening, said control valve further including a tappet actuated by said electromagnet and engaging said remote end, and a spring for biasing said valve needle to an open position thereof, said electromagnet having an armature, said tappet having a rounded front end engaging said remote end of said valve needle.
