The invention relates to a high-pressure fuel pump having a pump piston and having a piston rotation inducing device which induces a rotation of the pump piston about a movement axis, along which the pump piston moves in translational fashion, during the operation of the pump piston

An electromagnetically actuated valve comprising a valve piston including a first end and an opposite second end, a valve plate at the first end of the valve piston, a spring plate which is fastened to the second end of the valve piston and which has a first planar contact surface, a valve spring that lies against the spring plate and that moves the valve plate into a closed position, and an electromagnet including a coil, an armature pin which has a second planar contact surface that is parallel relative to and that bears against the first planar contact surface, and an armature arranged on the armature pin, wherein the first planar contact surface and the second planar contact surface each have a diameter that is greater than a greatest diameter of the armature pin and a diameter of the second end of the valve piston.

A high-pressure pump including a drive shaft (2) supported about an axis of rotation (26) and having at least one cam (3). The pump includes at least two pistons (5); at least two cylinders (6) supporting the pistons (5); wherein the pistons (5) have longitudinal axes (16) oriented at an angle to each other in a projection of the piston longitudinal axes (16) in the direction of the axis of rotation (26) onto a fictitious projection plane perpendicular to the axis of rotation (26). Each of the pistons (5) is supported on a shaft rolling surface (4) of the drive shaft (2) having the at least one cam (3) indirectly by means of a respective supporting element (14) having a supporting rolling surface (15), such that a translational motion can be performed by the pistons (5) as the result of a rotational motion of the drive shaft (2), wherein the piston longitudinal axes (16) have an axial distance in the direction of the axis of rotation (26).

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 roller tappet for a fuel unit pump of an internal combustion engine is provided with a roller tappet bore for inserting the roller tappet within the internal combustion engine. The roller tappet includes a roller tappet body having a body longitudinal axis for connecting the roller tappet to a reciprocating element of the fuel unit pump. A cam roller contacts a cam lobe of a rotatable shaft of the internal combustion engine. The cam roller is rotatably mounted to the roller tappet body around a cam roller rotation axis. The external surface of the roller tappet body is configured to allow tilting of the roller tappet within the roller tappet bore for aligning the roller tappet with respect to the cam lobe of the rotatable shaft.

There is disclosed a solenoid valve for a fuel injection system, in which solenoid valve a closing element which interacts with a valve seat in order to close and open the solenoid valve is actuated by a control pin, the control pin being formed by way of a solenoid plunger. Furthermore, a high pressure fuel pump is disclosed which has a solenoid valve of this type.

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.

A method for testing a high-pressure pump, particularly a high-pressure pump which is provided to inject fuel into a combustion engine, the method including filling the high-pressure pump with a fluid prior to switching it on.

Methods and systems are provided for a direct injection fuel pump. The methods and system control pressure within a compression chamber so as to improve fuel pump lubrication.

A fuel supply device supplying a fuel stored in a fuel tank to an engine includes a low-pressure pump configured to feed the fuel, a high-pressure pump configured to compress the fuel discharged from the low-pressure pump and to feed to the engine, a first low-pressure passage member configured to define a first fuel passage from the low-pressure pump to the high-pressure pump, and a second low-pressure passage member configured to define a second fuel passage branched from the first fuel passage at a low-pressure junction portion and joining the first fuel passage at a low-pressure confluence portion, wherein the first fuel passage and the second fuel passage are different in at least one of (i) temperatures of the fuels that flow through the fuel passages and (ii) passage lengths of the fuel passages from the low-pressure junction portion to the low-pressure confluence portion.
