A roller for a mechanical fuel pump assembly includes an elongate body extending from a first axial end to a second axial end of the elongate body over an overall length of the elongate body. The elongate body defines an effective length that is less than the overall length. The elongate body defines a uniform circular cross section over a second length of the elongate body. The second length is 75 to 90 percent of the effective length and the second length extends between a first plane and a second plane. A first area of reduced cross section extends axially outward from the first plane to a third plane located axially inward of the first axial end; and a second area of reduced cross section extends axially outward from the second plane to a fourth plane located axially inward of the second axial end.

A high-pressure oil pump roller tappet, used for automobile fuel injection system, mounted between the driving cam and the tappet. The roller tappet includes a shell, a holder, a roller, and a pin. Planes A are arranged on both sides of the seam on lateral sides of the shell. Holes I are arranged at symmetrical positions on two planes A. Holes II are arranged on symmetrical positions on vertical plates. The roller is located in the middle of the pin. Welding has no requirement on the thickness of the plate. The weight can be controlled effectively, reducing inertia force, friction, and wear, improving engine efficiency. The shell and holder are designed as being separate, ensuring that the shell subjects to lateral force as little as possible when the holder subjects to a force, such that the shell is less likely to vibrate. Thus, the shell avoids the abrasion.

According to the embodiment of the present disclosure, it provides a method of manufacturing a piston of a pump for brake system, the piston fabricated using a piercing process by press forming to have an inlet path communicating with a suction port through which oil is introduced.

Fuel pump for a direct injection system provided with a common rail. The fuel pump has a pumping chamber defined in a main body; a piston which is mounted in a sliding manner inside the pumping chamber to cyclically vary the volume of the pumping chamber; an intake channel which originates from a wall of the pumping chamber; an intake valve which is coupled to the intake channel; a delivery channel which originates from a wall of the pumping chamber; a delivery valve which is coupled to the delivery channel; and an actuating spring which has a plurality of turns having a pitch that varies between the turns and that is coupled to the piston so as to push the piston towards a maximum volume or minimum volume position of the pumping chamber.

Disclosed is a pump, in particular a high-pressure fuel pump, comprising at least one pump element (10) that has a roller tappet (20) inside which a roller (42) is rotatably mounted on a bearing bolt (44) by means of a bearing sleeve (46), said roller (42) rolling off a cam (22) of an input shaft (24). The bearing sleeve (46) is made of a plastic material, especially polyether ether ketone (PEEK) or polyphthalamide (PPA).

The present disclosure provides a high-pressure fuel pump including a barrel unit, a plunger, and a camshaft assembly having an eccentric cam lobe including a surface of the lobe. A follower is provided between the plunger and the surface of the lobe of the camshaft assembly to facilitate translation between the rotational movement of the camshaft assembly to axial movement of the plunger. The follower includes arcuate surfaces configured to mate with corresponding arcuate surfaces of the lobe of the cam shaft assembly and the plunger, respectively.

A mechanical system that forms one of a cam follower or a rocker arm. The mechanical system comprises a support element including a first body portion and a second body portion, a pin extending between two opposite ends along a first axis and supported by the first body portion of the support element, and a roller mounted on pin, movable in rotation relative to the pin around the first axis and adapted to roll on a cam. The mechanical system further comprises a spacing element comprising a first body portion connected to the second body part of the support element and a second body portion adapted to be supported by a movable support.

A cam follower roller device, notably for fuel injection pump of an internal combustion engine, the cam follower roller device comprising a casing, a shaft mounted on the casing and a roller rotatably mounted on the shaft. The casing comprises on its periphery at least four openings made through the thickness of the casing and located in such a way that two openings face one end of the outer cylindrical surface of the roller.

A mechanical system, comprising a support element, a pin extending along a first axis and comprising two opposite ends, each adapted to be fitted in the support element for radial retention of the pin relative to the first axis, and a roller element movable in rotation relative to the pin around the first axis. The mechanical system includes two ribs resting on either side of the ends for axial retention of the pin along the first axis. The mechanical system can be integrated into either an injection pump or a valve actuator.

The invention relates to a reciprocating pump (1) comprising a roller tappet (2) and a pump plunger (10) that is operatively connected to the roller tappet (2). The roller tappet (2) has a roller support (3), a roller (4) and a pin (5). A first bearing eye (6) and a second bearing eye (7) are formed in the roller support (3), the pin (5) being supported in the first bearing eye (6) and in the second bearing eye (7). The roller (4) is rotatably mounted on the pin (5). The pin (5) is mounted more resiliently in the first bearing eye (6) than in the second bearing eye (7).
