A damper spring structure of a high-pressure fuel pump includes: a housing of the high-pressure fuel pump in which a flow path for fuel is formed; a lid coupled to the housing and having an accommodation space between the housing and the lid; a damper spring installed in the accommodation space between the housing and the lid; and a damper installed in the damper spring so as to be supported by the damper spring, in which the damper spring is seated and supported on the lid and the housing in the accommodation space by contact points, and the lid is supported at a plurality of contact points.

In at least some implementations, an adapter, for a fuel pump having a casing, has a base having an axis and an opening through which fluid may flow, and multiple tabs connected to the base. The tabs are circumferentially spaced apart with a void between at least part of the tabs, and at least two tabs have a contact portion that extends radially inwardly to define a minimum diameter opening between the tabs. Each contact portion extends along a portion less than all of the surface areas of the radially inner surface of the tabs.

A noise reduction type purge control solenoid valve includes a body including a connector that supplies electricity from the exterior; a cover coupled to the body having a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet, and formed with a fluid discharge passage connected to the fluid outlet therein; a solenoid component disposed in the body; and an armature disposed between the solenoid component and the fluid discharge passage and moving upward and downward by the solenoid component to open and close the fluid discharge passage. Further, a noise reduction member is mounted on the armature to reduce noise generated by contact between the fluid discharge passage and the armature. A noise reduction wall protrudes along a circumference of an upper surface of the noise reduction member.

A vibration damping system for injection systems of motor vehicles includes an actively controllable actuator element, which is situated at a component of the injection system. The actuator element is situated at the component in such a way that, during operation of the injection system a vibration reduction of the injection system is achieved with the aid of an active control of the actuator element.

The decoupling element is for a fuel injection device, in which a low-noise configuration is implemented, and includes at least one fuel injector and a receiving borehole in a cylinder head for the fuel injector, and the decoupling element is introduced between a valve housing of the fuel injector and a wall of the receiving borehole. The decoupling element has a bowl- or cup-shaped configuration, and includes a radially outer contact area and a radially inner contact area with which the decoupling element is radially inwardly and radially outwardly placeable against the fuel injector and a shoulder of the receiving borehole. The radially inner contact area of the decoupling element has a spherically convex contact surface whose curvature has a largely constant spherical radius. The fuel injection device is particularly suited for the direct injection of fuel into a combustion chamber of a mixture-compressing spark ignition internal combustion engine.

In at least some implementations, an adapter, for a fuel pump having a casing, has a base having an axis and an opening through which fluid may flow, and multiple tabs connected to the base. The tabs are circumferentially spaced apart with a void between at least part of the tabs, and at least two tabs have a contact portion that extends radially inwardly to define a minimum diameter opening between the tabs. Each contact portion extends along a portion less than all of the surface areas of the radially inner surface of the tabs.

To reduce collision noise caused when an electromagnetic valve of a high-pressure fuel supply pump is opened. Therefore, in a control device for controlling a high-pressure fuel supply pump including: an anchor; a fixed core configured to attract the anchor with an electromagnetic force; a suction valve configured to be opened or closed when the anchor is sucked by the fixed core; and an electromagnetic force generation unit configured to generate the electromagnetic force when applied with a driving voltage, it can be achieved by providing a control unit configured to perform control to lower a driving current from a peak current before a timing at which the anchor is sucked by the fixed core and collides in an operation state where an engine is under no load and an engine rotation speed is equal to or less than a set rotation speed.

A fuel system for an internal combustion engine includes a fuel system, a valve train, and a fuel injector including a cam actuated plunger. The fuel injector has a noise suppressor fluidly connecting a plunger cavity to each of a spill passage and a nozzle supply passage in the fuel injector. The noise suppressor has an inlet configuration forming a fuel admission flow area to the plunger cavity, and an outlet configuration forming a fuel discharge flow area. The fuel discharge flow area is smaller than the fuel admission flow area, and the noise suppressor adjusts to the outlet configuration to throttle discharging of fuel from the plunger cavity to limit valve train noise.

A head cover structured and arranged to cover at least part of a face of a cylinder head of an internal combustion engine is described. The head cover includes a chamber formation part structured and arranged to provide a chamber to restrain sound propagating through air from the cylinder head. The chamber formation part includes a partition part for partitioning the chamber from a space on a cylinder head side. The partition part has a convex part projecting into the chamber, and a through hole may be provided in the convex part that penetrates from the space on the cylinder head side to the chamber.

Various embodiments include a method for controlling a pressure dissipation valve comprising a closure element, a spring applying a spring force urging the closure element toward the closed position, and an electromagnetic actuator responding to an applied voltage to urge the closure element to an open position. The method may include: applying a constant voltage until the closure element begins motion counter to the spring force; immediately ending the voltage upon the beginning of motion; thereafter, applying a pulsed voltage to the actuator to induce a substantially constant holding-open current intensity; maintaining the pulsed voltage for a predetermined duration to hold the closure element open; and interrupting the application of voltage after the predetermined duration, wherein the closure element moves into the closed position as a result of the spring force.
