A metering valve supplies fuel to and block fuel from a pressurizing chamber by moving a valve body by switching between energization and de-energization of an electromagnetic unit. An energization control unit performs a valve closing control and a valve opening control to reduce operating sound in one opening and closing period in which the valve body opens and closes. A time control unit controls, on determination that the energizing period of the electromagnetic unit exceeds the upper limit value, a moving speed of the valve body when the valve body moves to a valve closing side, such that the energization period of the electromagnetic unit in the one opening and closing period does not exceed the upper limit value, thereby to cause the energization control unit to perform both the valve closing control and the valve opening control in the one opening and closing period.

FUEL SUPPLY PUMP

Provided is a fuel supply pump capable of improving welding quality while securing a function of a valve body. A fuel supply pump of the present invention includes a regulating member (discharge valve stopper 84) that guides movement of a valve body (discharge valve 82), a main body portion (body 1) provided with a valve chamber (discharge valve chamber 1d) that houses the regulating member, a sealing member (plug 85) that seals the valve chamber, and a welded portion (welded portion 86) that fixes the sealing member to the main body portion. An annular space portion (annular space portion 60) along an outer periphery of the regulating member is formed between the welded portion and the regulating member. The regulating member includes a positioning portion (fitting portion 84a) for positioning with respect to the main body portion on a side opposite to the sealing member, and a gap forming portion (gap forming portion 84c) forming an annular gap (annular gap 63) between the gap forming portion and the main body portion, and the annular gap allows a space on a side of the positioning portion in the valve chamber and the annular space portion to communicate with each other.

FUEL PUMP WITH INLET VALVE ASSEMBLY
20220364535 · 2022-11-17 ·

A fuel pump includes a pump housing with a pumping chamber an inlet valve bore. An inlet valve selectively provides and prevents fluid communication between an inlet of the fuel pump and the pumping chamber. The inlet valve includes an inner housing received within the inlet valve bore such that an outer periphery of the inner housing is sealed to an inner periphery of the inlet valve bore. An outer housing circumferentially surrounds the inner housing. An annular chamber is defined radially between the inner housing and the outer housing and axially between the outer housing and the pump housing. A sealing ring is located within the annular chamber such that the sealing ring is compressed axially against the pump housing and the outer housing.

A fuel pump includes a fuel pump housing with a pumping chamber and an inlet valve bore which extends along an inlet valve bore axis. The inlet valve bore is stepped such that the inlet valve bore includes a shoulder which is traverse to the inlet valve bore axis. A pumping plunger reciprocates within a plunger bore along a plunger bore axis such that an intake stroke of the pumping plunger increases volume of the pumping chamber and a compression stroke of the pumping plunger decreases volume of the pumping chamber. An inlet valve assembly includes a valve seat with a valve seat flow passage extending therethrough, the valve seat abuts the shoulder and is urged toward the shoulder by pressure within the pumping chamber during the compression stroke. The inlet valve assembly also includes a valve member which is moveable between an unseated position and a seated position.
