Definitions

  • the invention relates to a pump, in particular high-pressure fuel pump, according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Such a pump is through the WO 2005/088125 A1 known.
  • This pump has a pump element which has a guided in a cylinder bore of a housing part pump piston which is driven indirectly by a drive shaft in a lifting movement.
  • the pump piston is supported on the drive shaft via a support element and a roller rotatably mounted in the support element, at least approximately circular cylindrical.
  • the support element is guided at least indirectly in the direction of the stroke movement of the pump piston.
  • the support element and the pump piston are acted upon by a spring to the drive shaft.
  • the spring is non-rotatably connected at its end facing the drive shaft about its longitudinal axis with the support member and connected at its end remote from the drive shaft to its longitudinal axis non-rotatably connected to a housing part.
  • the pump piston is firmly connected to the support element and the support element is guided only via the pump piston in the direction of the stroke movement of the pump piston.
  • the support member has on its side facing the drive shaft a concave depression in which the roller is rotatably mounted. In operation of the pump, the roller is held by the bias of the spring while in the support member, however, a mounting of the support member in the pump is difficult because the roller is not held in the support element, so that it can fall out during assembly of the support member in the pump ,
  • a ball piston for hydraulic machines in which a ball is rotatably mounted in a recess of a support member.
  • the ball is held in the recess by means of a holding element attached to the carrier element.
  • the retaining element has an internal thread with which it is screwed onto the carrier element surrounding the ball.
  • the ball When assembling the ball piston, the ball must be inserted before screwing the retaining element in the recess of the support element.
  • Such a design and attachment of the retaining element is only possible with a ball, but not in a circular cylindrical role, as a screwing of the retaining element on the support member in a circular cylindrical roller not possible, since a rotation of the retaining element with respect to the elongated roller is not possible.
  • the preparation of the carrier element and the retaining element is also complicated because of the thread.
  • the pump according to the invention with the features of claim 1 has the advantage that the roller is held in the support element, wherein the holding element is simple and easily attached to the support member.
  • a pump which is in particular a high-pressure fuel pump for a fuel injection device of an internal combustion engine.
  • the pump has a housing 10, which may be designed in several parts and in which a rotationally driven drive shaft 14 is rotatably mounted about an axis of rotation 15.
  • the drive shaft 14 has at least one cam 16, which may also be a multiple cam.
  • the pump has at least one or more pump elements 18, each having a pump piston 20 which is at least indirectly driven by the cam 16 of the drive shaft 14 in a lifting movement in at least approximately radial direction to the axis of rotation 15 of the drive shaft 14 and in the direction of the longitudinal axis 21 of the pump piston 20 becomes. It can also be provided that the pump does not have its own drive shaft 14 and the pump piston 20 of the pump element 18 is driven by a shaft of the internal combustion engine having a cam 16 or eccentric.
  • the pump piston 20 is tightly guided in a cylinder bore 22 of a housing part 24 of the pump.
  • the housing part 24 has a flange-like region 25 and a cylindrical projection 26 protruding therefrom towards the drive shaft 14, in which the cylinder bore 22 extends.
  • the pump piston 20 in the cylinder bore 22 defines a pump working chamber 28.
  • the pump working chamber 28 has an inlet check valve 30 opening into this connection with an inlet 32 leading, for example, from a feed pump, via which the pump working chamber 28 radially inward to the axis of rotation 15 of the drive shaft 14 directed suction stroke of the pump piston 20 is filled with fuel.
  • the pump working chamber 28 also has an outlet check valve 34 which opens out of this connection with a drain 36, which for example leads to a high-pressure fuel accumulator 38 and fuel via the delivery stroke of the pump piston 20 directed radially outward from the rotation axis 15 of the drive shaft 14 the pump working space 28 is displaced.
  • the pump piston 20 is supported indirectly via a support element in the form of a roller shoe 42 on the cam 16 of the drive shaft 14.
  • the roller shoe 42 has on its side facing the drive shaft 14 a concave recess 44 in which an at least approximately circular cylindrical roller 46 is rotatably mounted, wherein the axis of rotation of the roller 46 is designated 48.
  • the roller 46 extends on the cam 16 of the drive shaft 14 from.
  • the housing 10 of the high-pressure fuel pump is filled with fuel and the fuel is lubricated between the roller 46 and the recess 44 of the roller shoe 42.
  • the roller shoe 42 and connected thereto pump piston 20 are by a prestressed spring in the form of a cylindrical helical compression spring 50 to Drive shaft 14 acted upon towards, so that the roller 46 is held in contact with the cam 16.
  • the helical compression spring 50 surrounds the projection 26 of the housing part 24 and the longitudinal axis is at least approximately identical to the longitudinal axis 21 of the pump piston 20. From the flange portion 25 of the housing part 24 is inwardly, the neck 26 coaxially surrounding a collar 52 protruding.
  • the collar 52 has as in FIG. 6 represented in its circumference one in the direction of the longitudinal axis 21 of the pump piston 20 extending groove 54.
  • the end of the spring 50 protrudes into the annulus formed between the boss 26 and the collar 52 and the end portion 56 of the last turn of the spring 50 is bent radially outward from the longitudinal axis 21 and projects into the groove 54.
  • the spring 50 is thus non-rotatably connected to the housing part 24 via the end region 56 of its last turn about the longitudinal axis 21.
  • the roller shoe 42 is approximately cylindrical in shape with a round cross section, wherein on the drive shaft 14 side facing the recess 44 is provided. On the side facing away from the drive shaft 14 of the roller shoe 42, an opening in the form of a bore 58 is provided into which projects from the cylinder bore 22 projecting end portion of the pump piston 20.
  • the pump piston 20 is fixedly connected to the roller shoe 42, in particular by the end portion of the pump piston 20 is pressed into the bore 58 of the roller shoe 42.
  • a reduced diameter relative to the roller shoe 42 collar 60 is formed, which projects into the drive shaft 14 facing the end of the spring 50.
  • the recess 44 in the roller shoe 42 is formed, for example, that this as in FIG. 3 represented the roller 46 on the circumference of an angle ⁇ of a maximum of 180 ° surrounds. Preferably, the recess 44 surrounds the roller 46 for less than 180 °, in particular about 140 °.
  • a holding element 66 is provided, which is arranged on the drive shaft 14 facing side of the roller shoe 42 and is secured to the roller shoe 42.
  • the roller shoe 42 has, on its side facing the drive shaft 14, a recess 68 which is circular in cross-section, for example.
  • the holding element 66 is disc-shaped with the recess 68 corresponding cross-section and inserted into the recess 68, in particular pressed into the recess 68.
  • the holding element 66 has as in the Figures 3 and 5 6 illustrates a slot-shaped opening 70, through which the roller 46 projects toward the drive shaft 14, wherein the width of the slot 70 in the radial direction with respect to the axis of rotation 48 of the roller 46 is smaller than the diameter of the roller 46, so that the roller 46 does not pass through the slot 70 can pass.
  • the holding member 66 comes in its final assembled end position at the bottom 69 of the recess 68 of the roller shoe 42 for conditioning without the holding member 66 presses against the roller 46.
  • the lateral edges 71 of the slot 70 may, as in FIG. 3 be shown bevelled, with the width of the slot 70 increases toward the roller 46 out.
  • the bevel of the edges 71 of the slot 70 sharp edges are avoided during start-up of the roller 46.
  • the lateral edges 71 of the slot 70 may also be rounded.
  • the length of the slot 70 in the direction of the axis of rotation 48 of the roller 46 is only slightly larger than the length of the roller 46.
  • the holding member 66 holds the roller 46 in the recess 44 of the roller shoe 42 and forms a support for the roller 46, on which Roller 46 can come to rest in the direction of its axis of rotation 48.
  • the holding element 66 is preferably made of a material with high wear resistance, for example hard metal or ceramic.
  • the pointing in the direction of its axis of rotation 48 axial ends 47 of the roller 46, with which they can start on the support member 66 may be formed convex rounded.
  • the support member 42 is guided only via the pump piston 20 in the direction of the lifting movement of the pump piston 20 and has no guide in a housing part. A sufficiently large distance is present between the support element 42 and the surrounding housing part, so that fuel can flow between the underside of the drive shaft 14 and the top side of the support element 42 facing away from the drive shaft 14.
  • the support member 42 and the support member 66 need therefore have no through openings, which allow a flow through the support member 42 and the support member 66 between the bottom and top. If necessary, the support member 42 and the retainer 66 may still be provided with apertures 74 to facilitate flow therethrough.
