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.

In a high-pressure pump, a center of load in a virtual plane including an end face of a coil spring facing a pressurizing chamber in an axial direction is defined as an upper load center, and a center of load in a virtual plane including an end face of the coil spring facing a cam in the axial direction is defined as a lower load center. The coil spring is configured such that, when viewed in the axial direction, during motion of a plunger toward the pressurizing chamber by rotation of the cam, the upper load center moves in one direction along a circumference of the coil spring while the lower load center moves in an opposite direction along the circumference of the coil spring, and the lower load center substantially coincides with the upper load center and subsequently further moves in the opposite direction.

The invention relates to a pump unit for feeding fuel, preferably diesel fuel, to an internal combustion engine, comprising at least one cylinder (14), a piston (15) which is displaceably arranged in the cylinder (14), and a pressure valve (30) for selectively controlling the supply of fuel to the internal combustion engine, wherein the pressure valve (30) has a closure part (38, 46, 51) provided with a cavity (44, 49, 53) that opens to the outside on an end surface (43, 48, 52) facing the piston (15) of the closure part (38, 46, 51).

Disclosed herein is a mounting structure of a fuel rail, including a mounting boss part having a through-hole formed in a longitudinal direction and a first mating surface formed at an outer surface, an injector cup part provided separately from the mounting boss part and having a second mating surface formed at an outer surface and a flow path hole formed at one side of the second mating surface to be connected to the main pipe for transferring fuel to an injector, and a bridge part connecting the mounting boss part and the injector cup part and having a third mating surface. The mounting structure of the fuel rail can effectively distribute stress concentration by increasing contact area with the main pipe, thereby improving fatigue strength.

A valve assembly for an injection valve includes a valve body having a central longitudinal axis and a cavity with a fluid inlet portion and a fluid outlet portion, a valve needle axially movable in the cavity to prevent a fluid flow through the fluid outlet portion in a closing position and to allow fluid flow through the fluid outlet portion in further positions, and a guiding device arranged in the cavity and configured to guide the valve needle relative to the valve body. The guiding device has a first guide element fixedly coupled to the valve body and a second guide element fixedly coupled to the valve needle. The first guide element includes a magnetic material with a first magnetic field and the second guide element includes a magnetic material with a second magnetic field, the first and second magnetic fields being orientated in opposite directions.

An injector component of an injector for introducing a fluid is described as including a base body, a coating on at least one first end face of the base body, the coating having a maximum, which lies on an outer half of the base body, and an outer lateral surface of the base body does not have any coating.

Gas admission valve assembly includes a housing, an elongated valve guide disposed within a central bore of the housing, a valve including a valve stem slidably disposed within the valve guide and a valve head selectively engagable with a valve seat of the housing to control flow between gas entry and exit openings into a housing entry chamber. First and second stem seals are disposed at opposite ends of the valve guide in sealing engagement with the valve stem between the valve stem and the central bore of the housing distally and the valve guide proximally.

An electromagnetically-driven injector may include a valve body of an on-off valve biased in a valve-closed direction by a coil spring, which is arranged in a stroking direction of the valve body, and at least one plate spring, which is provided at a right angle in the stroking direction of the valve body and arranged in such a manner as to support the valve body, and keeps a valve-closed state when energization is not provided. The at least one plate spring may include a plurality of plate springs arranged in the stroking direction of the valve body.

A valve is provided, in particular an injection valve, having a valve seat and a valve needle which extends along a closing direction for the most part, the valve seat having a valve-seat surface, and a valve-closing element is mounted on an end of the valve needle facing the valve seat, the valve-closing element being able to be moved between an open position and a closed position, and the valve-closing element together with the valve-seat surface forming a sealing seat in the closed position, the valve-closing element having a greater core hardness and/or surface hardness than the valve-seat surface.

A fuel injector and a nozzle for a fuel injector is provided. The nozzle includes at least one spray hole that is formed through a hardened nozzle body. The nozzle body is hardened again after forming the at least one spray hole to hardened the nozzle body along the at least one spray hole.
