Definitions

  • the damping diaphragm of the pressure damper is loaded by a spring in the direction of the damping chamber.
  • the spring defines the working area of the pressure damper.
  • the bias of the spring is particularly adjustable so that manufacturing tolerances can be easily compensated and an accurate adjustment of the pressure range in which the membrane works, is possible.
  • the spring also helps to accelerate the fuel column in the connection channel.
  • the crankcase interior 31 is in the range of in Fig. 2 shown bottom dead center of the piston 21 via one or more transfer ports 19 connected to the combustion chamber 22.
  • the overflow channels 19 open with overflow windows 20 into the combustion chamber 22.
  • an overflow channel 19 can be divided into a plurality of branches, which open into the combustion chamber 22 with separate overflow windows 20, as in FIG Fig. 2 is shown. From the combustion chamber 22 performs an outlet 18, which is also slit-controlled by the piston 21 and at the in Fig. 2 shown position of the piston 21 is open at bottom dead center.
  • the reference pressure may also be another pressure, for example the pressure in the clean room of an air filter of the internal combustion engine 12.
  • the pressure regulator 35 and the pressure damper 36 operate with the same reference pressure, a vote of pressure regulator 35 and pressure damper 36 is given in a simple manner. Even with very low fuel pressures at which the spring 55 is designed very weak in the pressure damper 36, it can be ensured that the damping diaphragm 54 operates in operation in its central position and can dampen the resulting pressure fluctuations well.
  • connection opening 88 can also be arranged in a negative pressure region of the fan wheel housing 81.
  • the reference pressure of in Fig. 10 Pressure regulator 35, not shown, is the ambient pressure as shown in the first embodiment, so that the reference pressures of pressure regulator 35 and pressure damper 36 are different.
