The invention relates to an electromagnetically actuable intake valve for a high-pressure pump of a fuel injection system, in particular of a common-rail injection system, comprising a reciprocating valve closure element (2) that engages with a valve seat (1) and is loaded in the closing direction by the spring force of a valve spring (3) which is supported on a spring plate (4) connected to the valve closure element (2), further comprising a reciprocating armature (6) that engages with an electromagnet (5) and is loaded in the direction of the valve closure element (2) by the spring force of an armature spring (7) which is larger than that of the valve spring (3). According to the invention, the spring plate (4) has a first abutment face (9) for limiting the opening travel of the valve closure element (2) and a second abutment face (10) for mechanically coupling to the armature (6). The invention also relates to a high-pressure pump having such an intake valve.

Various embodiments include a valve comprising a valve body including a valve seat; and a valve element movable along a longitudinal axis to close the on-off valve by sealing against the valve seat. The valve body includes a conical lateral surface. The valve body includes a radially extending spring projection which is resilient in an axial direction and projects radially beyond the lateral surface.

A fuel injection device has a valve body, a drive portion, a nozzle needle, and a control valve body. The valve body defines a control chamber, a valve chamber and a low pressure communication passage. The nozzle needle is displaced due to a fuel pressure variation in the control chamber to open/close an injection port. When the control valve body sits on an upper seat surface, a low pressure communication passage is closed so that the valve chamber is fluidly disconnected from the low pressure chamber. The control valve body defines a gap restriction on the upper seat surface. A flow passage area of a sub orifice provided to the low pressure communication passage is smaller than a flow passage area of the gap restriction.

The pressing part includes an abutment part capable of being in contact with the inner peripheral surface of the pressing passage, and a depressed opposite part that is opposed to the exhaust port at a position away from the exhaust port in a perpendicular direction perpendicular to the displacement direction due to an outer peripheral surface of the pressing part recessed from the abutment part even when the abutment part is in contact with the inner peripheral surface of the pressing passage. When the abutment part is in contact with the inner peripheral surface of the pressing passage, a depression dimension of the depressed opposite part relative to the abutment part is set, such that an amount of fuel discharged from the valve chest is defined by the exhaust throttle part instead of a gap between the depressed opposite part and the inner peripheral surface of the pressing passage.

A high-pressure fuel supply pump includes a pressurizing chamber, a piston plunger, and an electromagnetically-driven intake valve mechanism. The piston plunger reciprocates within the pressurizing chamber. The electromagnetically-driven intake valve mechanism is provided at an inlet of the pressurizing chamber. The electromagnetically-driven intake valve mechanism includes an anchor which pulls a plunger rod, a fixed core which attracts the anchor, and a yoke in which inner peripheral part has the fixed core and the anchor. The fixed core is fixed to a bottom part of the yoke. A through hole is formed at a bottom part of the fixed core.

An injection device for an internal combustion engine includes a fuel delivery pump and a high-pressure pump which are connected to one another via a low-pressure fuel line. A high-pressure accumulator is connected to the high-pressure pump. At least one injector is connected via a high-pressure fuel line to the high-pressure accumulator. The injection device also has at least one fuel return line which is connected to the high-pressure accumulator and/or to the at least one injector. The fuel return line issues into the low-pressure fuel line which connects the fuel delivery pump and the high-pressure pump to one another. At least one air bleed valve is arranged in the course of the low-pressure fuel line or on the high-pressure pump or on a filter housing.

The invention relates to a high pressure pump for a fuel injection system, in particular a common rail injection system, comprising a housing part (1) with a bore (2), in which a pump piston (3) is received such that it can be moved with a reciprocating movement, which pump piston (3) is supported via a tappet assembly (4) on a cam (5) or eccentric and delimits a pump working chamber (6) in the axial direction, which pump working chamber (6) can be filled with fuel via an upstroke valve (7) which is integrated into the high pressure pump. According to the invention, a feed bore (8) is configured in the housing part (1) in order to supply the upstroke valve (7) with fuel, which feed bore (8) is connected to a bore (11) of a further housing part (12), which bore (11) connects a pump interior chamber (9) and a tappet chamber (10).

An electromagnetic actuator of a valve device, in particular in a common rail system of a motor vehicle, comprising an armature for actuating a valve element located in a duct, said armature being arranged in a housing and being movable axially along a longitudinal axis of the actuator when an excitation coil is energized, further comprising a pole core, characterized in that the electromagnetic actuator is designed as an electromagnetic adhesive system that comprises a plate-type armature which entirely covers planar end faces of the pole core that extend orthogonally to the longitudinal axis.

Internal combustion engines having a split crankshaft are disclosed. The engines may also have non-circular, preferably rectangular, cross-section pistons and cylinders. The pistons may include a skirt with a field of pockets that provide a ringless, non-lubricated, seal equivalent. The pistons also may have a domed piston head with depressions thereon to facilitate the movement of air/charge in the cylinder. The engines also may use multi-stage poppet valves in lieu of conventional poppet valves. The engines may use the pumping motion of the engine piston to supercharge the cylinder with air/charge. The engines also may operate in an inverted orientation in which the piston is closer to the local gravitationally dominant terrestrial body's center of gravity at top dead center position than at bottom dead center position.

An electromagnetically actuated valve comprising a valve piston including a first end and an opposite second end, a valve plate at the first end of the valve piston, a spring plate which is fastened to the second end of the valve piston and which has a first planar contact surface, a valve spring that lies against the spring plate and that moves the valve plate into a closed position, and an electromagnet including a coil, an armature pin which has a second planar contact surface that is parallel relative to and that bears against the first planar contact surface, and an armature arranged on the armature pin, wherein the first planar contact surface and the second planar contact surface each have a diameter that is greater than a greatest diameter of the armature pin and a diameter of the second end of the valve piston.
