  • the actuating element of the valve element is not formed directly by the armature, but that an intermediate element is used, which is positively connected to the armature.
  • the actuator can thus either have only the armature or it knows the elements magnet armature and intermediate element.

  • the flange 15 has a through opening through which a drive-side end portion 17 of the camshaft 7 protrudes.
  • the drive-side end section 17 has, for example, a cone on which a drive wheel is placed and secured.
  • the drive wheel is formed for example as a pulley or gear.
  • the drive wheel is driven by the internal combustion engine directly or indirectly, for example via a belt drive or a gear transmission.
  • a tappet guide 19 is further inserted, in which a roller 21 having a roller tappet 23 is inserted.
  • roller 21 runs on the cam 9 of the camshaft 7 during a rotational movement of the same and the roller tappet 23 is thus in the tappet guide 19 translationally moved up and down.
  • roller tappet 23 cooperates with a pump piston 18, which is likewise arranged so as to be translatable up and down in a cylinder bore 29 formed in a pump cylinder head 27.
  • a plunger spring 33 is arranged, which is supported on the one hand to the pump cylinder head 27 and on the other hand to the roller tappet 23 and ensures a permanent contact of the roller 21 on the cam 9 in the direction of the camshaft 7 ,
  • a pump working space 35 is formed in extension of the pump piston 18, in which via the electro-magnetic controllable suction valve 2 fuel is introduced.
  • the introduction of the fuel takes place during a downward movement of the pump piston 18, while at an upward movement of the pump piston 18 in the pump chamber 35 befindaji fuel is conveyed via a high-pressure outlet 39 with an inserted outlet valve 16 via a further high-pressure line in the high-pressure accumulator.
  • the high-pressure pump 1 is fuel-lubricated as a whole, the fuel being conveyed by the low-pressure system into the camshaft space 5, which is connected to the suction valve 2 in a fluid-connected manner. This electro-magnetic controllable suction valve 2 and its functionality will be described below.
  • the electro-magnetically controllable suction valve 2 is opened and a connection of the pump working chamber 35 with the Fuel inlet 26 prepared so that the pump working chamber 35 via the suction valve 2 fuel is supplied.
  • the fuel supplied to the pump working chamber 35 is compressed and fed to a high-pressure accumulator (not shown) via the high-pressure valve 16 arranged in the high-pressure outlet 39.
  • the suction valve 2 is closed when fuel delivery is to take place and seals the pump working chamber 35 from the fuel to run 26 from.
  • the illustrated in Fig. 2 attached to the high pressure pump 1 electromagnetically controllable suction valve 2, has a piston-shaped valve member 14 which is acted upon in the closing direction by the spring force of a spring 12, which is therefore hereinafter referred to as closing spring 12.
  • the piston-shaped valve element 14 has a shaft 25, in particular a cylindrically shaped shaft 25, and an enlarged head 34.
  • the pump cylinder head 27 has a valve seat 36 in the contact region to the closed valve element 14.
  • the piston-shaped valve element 14 is guided via the shaft 25 in a bore 38 in the pump cylinder head 27 and has the enlarged diameter in relation to the shaft 25 head 34.
  • a sealing surface 37 is formed, which in
  • FIG. 2 the elements of an electromagnetic actuator are also shown: This has a magnet armature 10 with a cylindrical outer contour and a central bore 32. A strong compression spring 4 is also embedded in this central bore 32 of the armature 10, which exerts an axial force on the armature 10 to the valve element 14 out.
  • the magnet armature 10 is also guided in a liftable axially movable in a carrier element 40. In the radial direction, the magnet armature 10 surrounds a magnetic coil 6, which forms a magnetic field when energized and thus can exert a magnetic force on the magnet armature 10.
  • the valve member 14 is directly or via an intermediate element 8 in contact with the armature 10, wherein both elements are not connected to each other in the axial direction, but are held together only by magnetic forces and spring forces in abutment.
  • the intermediate element 8 is introduced into the magnet armature 10, in particular the intermediate element 8 can be pressed into the magnet armature 10, so that a frictional connection is achieved.
  • the magnet armature 10 taken alone or the combination of the magnet armature 10 with the intermediate element 8 form an actuating element 8, 10.
  • the strong compression spring 4 acts on the intermediate element 8 and the armature 10. The strong compression spring ensures in the de-energized state that the intermediate element 8 acts on the valve element 14 and holds it in the open position.
  • the valve element 14 is held in the open state.
  • the armature 10 By energizing the armature 10 by means of the magnetic coil 6, the armature 10 moves against the force of the compression spring 4 away from the valve element 14 to close the working air gap 28.
  • the intermediate element 8 By moving away the intermediate element 8 loses the frictional contact with the valve element 14 whereby the valve element 14 moves by the force of the closing spring 12 in the closed state. In the fully closed state of the valve element 14, this rests with the sealing surface 37 on the valve seat 36 of the and seals the pump working chamber 35 from the fuel inlet 26 from.
  • FIG. 3 shows the detailed contact area between the intermediate element 8 and the valve element 14. Both elements have mutually facing end faces, which may be at least partially in mechanical contact with each other.
  • Fig. 3 it can be seen that the regions of the mechanical contact 24 between the valve element 14 and the actuating element 8, 10 and the zone 22, in which cavitation can occur, are spatially separated from one another. This is achieved in that the mechanical contact between the actuating element 8, 10 and the valve element 14 is interrupted approximately centrally, since there is the zone 22, can arise in the cavitation, and that the region of the mechanical contact 24 instead by means of an annular Contact area is arranged around the central zone of cavitation.
  • This separation of the areas of mechanical con- Clock 24 and the zone of cavitation 22 can be achieved by means of a trough-shaped recess 20.
  • This trough-shaped recess 20 may be located either in the actuating element 8, 10 or in the valve element 14 or in the two elements 8 and 14.
  • a further specification of the area of the mechanical contact is given by a spherical shaping of the contact contour 30. Since the valve element 14 and the actuating element 8, 10 are guided and supported by different elements, it can lead to positioning errors of both elements to each other, resulting from angular errors or by a Desaxtechnik. This spherical shape of one or both surfaces of each of the valve element 14 and the actuating element 8, 10, which are in contact with each other, allows a tangential contact in the entire position error tolerance range and thus there is an always annular contact surface between the two elements 8 and 14. Through this annular contact surface Surface pressure and wear are reduced and the load capacity is increased by axial forces.
  • the respective shape of the trough-shaped recesses may be different in the actuating element 8, 10 and in the valve element 14 in each case, in particular that the respective recesses are not formed congruent.
  • This shaping of the respective recesses of the actuating element 8, 10 and of the valve element 14 can be so represented that the respective recesses in the edge region of their cross-sectional dimension do not run off congruently,
  • one of the two recesses in the edge region has a larger cross section.
