A pump unit for supplying fuel, preferably diesel oil, to an internal combustion engine has at least two cylinders (10), which are formed in at least one head (9), are slidingly engaged by respective pistons (13), and communicate hydraulically with respective fuel inlets (11) in the cylinders (10) via respective interposed intake valves (15) provided with respective valve bodies (16) incorporated in the head (9); the inlets (11) of all the cylinders (10) being closed by a single cover (33) fixed to the head (9).

A fluid system such as a fuel system includes a fluid supply and a pump coupled between the fluid supply and a plurality of fluid delivery devices. The pump can be a cryogenic pump such as for liquefied natural gas, with valve mechanisms to control hydraulic actuation of a piston used to pump the liquefied natural gas. An electrically conductive coil is coupled with the piston. Related methodology is disclosed.

A fluid intake/discharge valve body for suction of a cryogenic liquefied gas fluid into a cylinder liner and discharge of the gas fluid with a piston, includes: a valve seat body including a fluid supply portion to supply the fluid and a fluid exhaust portion; an intake valve biased against the fluid supply portion; and a discharge valve biased against the fluid exhaust portion. The fluid supply portion includes a supply pathway connected to a supply pipe; a dividing wall including intake holes facing the intake valve; and a counterbore recessed portion on the dividing wall to surround the intake holes. The intake valve abuts an edge of the recessed portion when biased against the fluid supply portion. The discharge valve receives fluid pressure from a side of the discharge hole including a recessed portion disposed in a region wider than an outer periphery of the discharge hole.

Provided is an engine, including: a cylinder; a piston accommodated in the cylinder; a combustion chamber facing the piston; a sliding portion (large-diameter portion) configured to perform a stroke motion together with the piston; a hydraulic surface of the sliding portion facing a side opposite to the combustion chamber; a hydraulic chamber, which the hydraulic surface faces; and an auxiliary hydraulic chamber, which communicates with the hydraulic chamber, and has a volume changeable in accordance with a hydraulic pressure in the hydraulic chamber.

A rotary internal combustion engine (ICE) has: a housing defining a rotor cavity; a rotor received within the rotor cavity to define working chambers of variable volume around the rotor, the rotor having circumferentially spaced peripheral apex seals biased radially outwardly in sliding engagement against a peripheral wall of the housing to separate the working chambers from one another, the housing having a fluid passage defined therethrough and opening into an inner surface of the peripheral wall; and an injector having a lubricant inlet hydraulically connected to a lubricant source, an actuation inlet hydraulically connected to a source of an actuation fluid, and a lubricant outlet, the injector having an open state in which the lubricant outlet is in fluid flow communication with the fluid passage upon the actuation fluid received within the injector and a closed state in which the lubricant outlet is disconnected from the fluid passage.

An injector nozzle having a first part having a stem and a flange, the flange having a flange surface, a body including a wall defining a hole, an annular nozzle ring having a first surface and a second surface wherein the first surface and/or the flange surface include a plurality of grooves, the stem being received in the hole, the first part being secured to the body to secure the nozzle ring in place such that the first surface engages the flange surface, the second surface engages the body, and the plurality of grooves define a plurality of injector holes.

A control device for an internal combustion engine includes a fuel injector configured to inject fuel, a pressure increasing device that is provided upstream of the feel injector and is configured to increase the pressure of fuel supplied to the fuel injector, and an electronic control unit. The electronic control unit is configured to calculate an actual fuel injection amount based on a difference between a fuel pressure in the fuel injector in a case where the pressure increasing device increases the fuel pressure without fuel injection by the fuel injector and a fuel pressure in the fuel injector in a case where the fuel injector performs fuel injection according to the driving of the pressure increasing device.

The hydraulic injection system (100) with cam comprises an injection valve (50) housed in a tubular injection nozzle (54), a gap being formed between a valve stem (51) of said valve (50) and the inner surface of the tubular injection nozzle (54) to allow an injectable fluid (58) coming from pressurizing means (10) to flow, while a receiver piston (62) fixed with respect to said valve (50) receives on the one hand the pressure of the injectable fluid (58) to hold said valve (50) closed, and on the other hand, the pressure of a hydraulic fluid (60) to open said valve (50), an injection cam (67) being capable to move said receiver piston (62) via an emitter piston (69) and said hydraulic fluid (60).
