The invention proposes an electromagnetically actuatable inlet valve (24) for a high-pressure pump, in particular of a fuel-injection system. The inlet valve (24) has a valve member (34) which can be moved between and open position and a closed position. An electromagnetic actuator (60) is provided, by means of which the valve member (34) can be moved, wherein the electromagnetic actuator (60) has an armature (68) which acts at least indirectly on the valve member (34), a magnet coil (64) which surrounds the armature (68), and a magnetic core (66) against which the armature (68) comes to rest at least indirectly when current is applied to the magnet coil (64), wherein the armature (68) is movably guided in a carrier element (78), and the carrier element (78) and the magnetic core (66) are interconnected. The carrier element (78) and the magnetic core (66) are interconnected by a sleeve-shaped connection element (90) which is integrally bonded in a first connection region (92) to the carrier element (78) and/or the magnetic core (66), and interlockingly engages the carrier element and/or the magnetic core in a second connection region (94) offset relative to the first connection region (92) in the direction of the longitudinal axis (91) of the connection element (90).

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.

A high-pressure fuel pump includes a housing, at least one piston, and a sealing device. The device is positioned on the piston so as to surround the piston, and includes a seal carrier. The carrier is connected, at least in sections, to the housing, and includes at least one radially peripheral portion that is materially bonded to the housing via a capacitor discharge weld connection. Such a pump enables improved cycle times and reduced error rates during production.
