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).

A tappet is proposed, for a fuel pump or for a valve timing gear, in each case of an internal combustion engine, comprising a hollow-cylindrical housing, which includes two separate portions lying in line one after the other, which are fitted together in a region of their facing inner faces and are permanently connected to one another by way of a joint. The tappet has a roller on its driving side and an abutment for a follower part on its driven side, which abutment is formed on a separate insert. The abutment is radially supported on the housing in the fitted-together region of the two portions, wherein the insert has a middle annular collar, from which on the one hand a sleeve portion protrudes in the direction of the driving side and on the other hand a dome-like attachment protrudes towards the driven side.

In a high-pressure pump, a relief valve seating surrounds an opening of a relief valve passage of a valve seat main body in a first space, A relief valve member includes a relief valve main body and a relief valve seat portion. The relief valve main body has a rod shape. The relief valve seat portion is integrated with an end of the relief valve main body so as to be capable of contacting the relief valve seat. The relief valve urging member urges the relief valve member toward the relief valve seat. A support portion includes a support main body that slidably supports an outer wall of the relief valve main body so as to guide a reciprocating movement of the relief valve member in the axial direction.

A cam ring of a supply pump revolves around a camshaft without rotating. A tappet reciprocates in a direction perpendicular to the camshaft in response to revolution of the cam ring such that the tappet slides along a cam ring sliding surface. A plunger reciprocates together with the tappet to pressurize and deliver fuel. The cam ring sliding surface is shaped in a convex form that has a curved contour line which is non-circular. A height of an inside of the cam ring sliding surface is higher than a height of a periphery of the cam ring sliding surface. Specifically, an ellipsoidal surface portion is formed at the cam ring sliding surface, and an axial direction of a major axis of the ellipsoidal surface portion is set to coincide with a direction perpendicular to a sliding direction of the cam ring sliding surface.

Provide is a high-pressure fuel pump capable of improving the degree of freedom of layout of members to be attached to a pump body and a producing method thereof. Therefore, the high-pressure fuel pump includes the suction joint that sucks fuel, the pump body formed with the pressurizing chamber that pressurizes the fuel sucked from the suction joint, and the discharge joint that discharges the fuel pressurized in the pressurizing chamber. The pump body is formed so that at least a part of the side surface portion thereof becomes a cylindrical portion or a polygonal shape portion. At least one of the discharge joint and the suction joint may be fixed on the inner peripheral side with respect to the outermost peripheral portion of the cylindrical portion or the polygonal shape portion of the side surface portion.

A driveshaft assembly, for example in an Electronic Unit Injector, Unit Injector or Electronic Unit Pump testing machine, wherein an indexing arrangement, such as complementary external and internal splines, enables a cam to be mounted on a shaft at a number of discreet positions, each providing a different offset of a central axis of the base cylinder section from a central axis of the shaft, each position providing a different maximum lift value of a plunger in contact with the cam, directly or via a rocker arm.

A liquid pump applicable in a fuel system such as a common rail fuel system includes a valve assembly having a valve stack with axially aligned components, dead volume, and vapor-distributing flow channels, for cavitation mitigation. An inlet valve meters a flow of liquid into the pump for pressurization by a plurality of reciprocating plungers operated by way of a rotating camshaft.

A roller tappet, in particular for a high-pressure fuel pump, is provided that is guided in the direction of the longitudinal axis thereof in a housing receptacle and is driven translatably in the longitudinal direction by cams of a camshaft. The roller tappet has a tappet body. This tappet body has a tappet skirt, a pump piston contact point (9), and a rotatably mounted roller (4), by which the roller tappet is supported on the camshaft. The tappet body has a guide cylinder (1), which is mounted in the housing receptacle and on which the roller (4) is supported, and a cup-shaped sleeve (7) having the pump piston contact point (9), which cup-shaped sleeve is supported in the guide cylinder (1) by a radial ring (8). A cylindrical constriction (5) is formed in the guide cylinder (1) in the region of the radial ring support.

This disclosure relates to a roller tappet, in particular for a high-pressure fuel pump. The roller tappet is guided in a direction of a longitudinal axis thereof in a housing receptacle and is driven in the longitudinal direction by cams of a camshaft. The roller tappet has a tappet body. The tappet body has a tappet skirt, a pump piston contact seat, and a rotatably mounted roller, by means of which the roller tappet is supported on the camshaft. The tappet body has a guide cylinder, which is mounted in the housing receptacle and on which the roller is mounted, and a cup-shaped sleeve having the pump piston contact point, which cup-shaped sleeve is supported axially and radially in the guide cylinder.

The subject matter of this specification can be embodied in, among other things, a fluid control device that includes a housing defining a plunger cavity in fluid communication with a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet, a valve having a shaft having a first end and a second end, and a stopper at the first end configured to block a fluid circuit between the fluid inlet and the fluid outlet in a first configuration of the inlet control valve and connect the fluid circuit in a second configuration of the inlet control valve, and a plunger configured for axial movement within the plunger cavity, defining a shaft cavity having an inner wall extending from an enclosed end to an open end in fluid communication with the fluid outlet, and configured to accommodate axial movement of the shaft within the shaft cavity.
