Abstract
An intake valve automatically opened and closed by pressure of a pressuring chamber is provided in a fuel intake passage, the intake valve is pushed to open by a plunger of an electromagnetic plunger mechanism, pulling-in operating timing of the plunger is controlled according to the operating condition of an internal combustion engine, and opening time of the intake valve during compression stroke of a pump is controlled to make discharge flow-rate of high pressure fuel variable.
Claims16
A high pressure fuel supply pump having a pressurizing chamber for pressurizing fuel supplied from an intake passage of fuel by a pressuring member to feed it under pressure to a discharge passage characterized in that:
- in addition to a main pressurizing chamber in which said pressurizing member is arranged, a sub-pressurizing chamber for communicating said intake passage with said discharge passage is provided;
- and
- said intake passage and said discharge passage are communicated with an upper end portion of said pressurizing chamber.
A high pressure fuel supply pump having a pressurizing chamber for pressurizing fuel supplied from an intake passage of fuel by a pressuring member to feed it under pressure to a discharge passage characterized in that:
- in addition to a main pressurizing chamber in which said pressurizing member is arranged, a sub-pressurizing chamber for communicating said intake passage with said discharge passage is provided
- wherein said sub-pressurizing chamber is arranged substantially annularly on the outer circumference of said main pressurizing chamber.
A high pressure fuel supply pump having a pressurizing chamber for pressurizing fuel supplied from an intake passage of fuel by a pressuring member to feed it under pressure to a discharge passage characterized in that it comprises:
- a pressurizing chamber forming member having a tapered surface at an end and formed from a member separately from a pump body, and said tapered surface of said pressurizing chamber forming member is compression-fitted by a fixing member to thereby form said pressurizing chamber.
A high pressure fuel supply having a pressurizing chamber communicated with an intake passage of fuel and a discharge passage, and a pressurizing member for feeding under pressure fuel within the pressurizing chamber to said discharge passage, characterized in that it comprises:
- a seal material arranged in a sliding portion of said pressurizing member;
- a connecting passage for communicating a fuel passage side of the seal material with a fuel intake passage;
- and
- a check valve arranged in the connecting passage to prevent fuel from entering from said fuel intake passage side to said seal material side.
A high pressure fuel supply pump for an internal combustion engine comprising:
- an electromagnetic operating mechanism controlled by a signal from a control unit of the internal combustion engine;
- an engaging member provided in said electromagnetic operating mechanism to take an advanced first position and a withdrawn second position by a control signal from said control unit;
- a valve body for opening and closing a fuel introducing port for communicating a cylinder of a pump with a low pressure side fuel passage;
- and
- a spring for biasing said valve body in a direction in which said fuel introducing port closes;
- said high pressure fuel supply pump for an internal combustion engine configured as that when said engaging member is at the first position, said valve body is held at the position at which said fuel introducing port is opened;
- and
- when said engaging member is at the second position, said valve body is opened and closed due to a pressure difference between upstream and downstream of said valve body, wherein when fuel pressure in said pump cylinder exceeds a predetermined value after said valve body has been closed, said valve body prevents said engaging member from changing to the first position.
