Abstract
A fuel feed pump according to the present invention improves its pump performance by making smaller side clearances in an axial direction at both sides of a pump element PE.
Multiple through-holes passing through in an axial direction are respectively formed at top portions of cogs of the outer rotor and the inner rotor, which form a pump element of a feed pump. Accordingly, pressures in the thrust direction at both axial sides of the rotors can be equalized, since the side clearance formed at both axial sides of the rotors are communicated with each other. As a result, since the rotors can be floated, without contacting with the pump cover and the pump plate, the abnormal wear and seizures can be suppressed, even when side clearance between the pump cover and the pump element is made smaller.
Description
- This application is based on Japanese Patent Application Nos. 2003-159280 filed on Jun. 4, 2003 and 2004-125490 filed on Apr. 21, 2004, the disclosures of which are incorporated herein by reference.
- This invention relates to a fuel supply apparatus for an internal combustion engine, more particularly to a rotary pump to be used for a fuel injection system for supplying fuel to a diesel engine.
- As one of prior art fuel injection pump, for example shown in U.S. Patent Application Publication No. US 2003/0044288 A1, it is known to us that the fuel injection pump is provided with a feed pump for drawing fuel from a fuel tank and feeding the fuel to a main pump of the fuel injection pump.
- As shown in FIG. 6, the feed pump comprises a
pump element 110 to be driven by acam shaft 100 of a main pump, apump cover 120 for forming a rotor chamber and housing therein thepump element 110, and apump plate 130 for closing an opening side of the rotor chamber in a liquid-sealing manner in combination with thepump cover 120, wherein thepump cover 120 is screwed to a side surface of apump housing 140. - Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 7, the
pump element 110 is a trochoid type comprising anouter rotor 111 having inner cogs and aninner rotor 112 disposed inside of the outer rotor and having outer cogs, wherein the number of cogs of theouter rotor 111 is larger than that of theinner rotor 112 by one cog, and wherein a rotational center 0 a of theouter rotor 111 is eccentric from that 0 i of theinner rotor 112. As a result, when theinner rotor 112 is driven by thecam shaft 100 and rotated, theouter rotor 111 is also rotated in conjunction with theinner rotor 112, so that a volume of a working chamber formed by adjacent cogs will be gradually changed to draw fuel from a fuel tank and pumps out the fuel to the main pump. - In the above described feed pump, as shown in FIG. 6, a side clearance between the
pump cover 120 and thepump element 110 is made smaller to minimize amount of fuel leakage and to increase a fuel feed efficiency. If, however, the side clearance were made too small, there would occur a problem of an abnormal wear, seizure or the like, because variations of parts in manufacturing process may not be absorbed. - The present invention is made in view of the above problems, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a fuel supply apparatus having a rotary pump which improves a pump performance by making much smaller the side clearance in an axial direction at both sides of the pump element without causing metal contact between the pump element and the counterpart.
- According to one of features of the present invention, a fuel supply apparatus comprises a rotary pump having a pumping chamber, the volume of which varies in conjunction with a rotation of a rotor, pressurizing the fuel sucked into the pumping chamber and discharging the pressurized fuel. The rotary pump is characterized in that, multiple through-holes are formed in a rotor, wherein the through-holes pass through in the rotor in an axial direction, and side clearances formed at both sides of the rotor are communicated with each other by those through-holes.
- According to the above structure, pressures (thrust pressures) on both sides of the rotor in the axial direction are equalized, since the side clearances formed at both sides of the rotor are communicated with each other through those multiple through-holes formed in the rotor. As a result, uniform side clearances on both sides of the rotor can be attained. In other words, it has become possible to float the rotor. Accordingly, the fuel feed efficiency can be increased by making much smaller the side clearance formed at both sides of the rotor in its axial direction, and the problems of the abnormal wear, seizures and the like can be suppressed because metal contacts between the rotor forming the side clearances and other parts can be suppressed.
- According to another feature of the invention, the multiple through-holes are formed at an equal distance in a circumferential direction of the rotor.
- According to such a structure, since the pressures (thrust pressures) on both sides of the rotor are equalized through those multiple through-holes at those points of the equal distance in the circumferential direction of the rotor, uniform side clearances can be obtained on both sides of the rotor at almost all circumferential points of the rotor. Accordingly, the fuel feed efficiency can be increased by making the side clearances much smaller, and the problems of the abnormal wear, seizures and the like can be suppressed because metal contacts between the rotor and other parts can be suppressed.
- According to a further feature of the invention, the rotary pump is a trochoid type pump comprising an outer rotor having inner cogs and inner rotor disposed inside of the outer rotor and having outer cogs, wherein the through-holes are formed at top portions or bottom portions of the cogs.
- Because of the through-holes formed in the inner rotor, which is driven by a camshaft, the inner rotor can be floated. As a result, metal contacts between the inner rotor and other parts are suppressed during the rotation of the inner rotor, and thereby the problems of the abnormal wear, seizures and the like can be suppressed.
- According to still further feature of the invention, the rotary pump is provided with the through-holes at every top portion or bottom portion of the cogs.
- In this case, the pressures in the thrust direction can be equalized at every top portion or bottom portion of the cogs of the inner rotor, the inner rotor can be much more surely floated to suppress the metal contacts between the inner rotor and the other parts.
- According to a further feature of the invention, an outer rotor of the rotary pump is provided with multiple through-holes, which pass through in the axial direction, at top portions or bottom portions of the cogs, wherein the multiple through-holes are arranged at an equal distance in a circumferential direction of the outer rotor.
- Since the through-holes are formed in the outer rotor in addition to the through-holes in the inner rotor, thrust pressures to the outer rotor can be likewise equalized. As a result, the outer rotor can be positively floated together with the inner rotor.
- According to a further feature of the present invention, the rotary pump is used as a feed pump of a fuel injection pump for diesel engines, wherein the feed pump is formed with a circular rotor chamber and comprises a pump cover for housing the pump element of the inner and the outer rotors in the rotor chamber, and a pump plate for closing an open end of the rotor chamber in a liquid-sealing manner together with the pump cover. The pump plate is formed with fuel ports to be communicated to the rotor chamber, and the pump cover is screwed to a side surface of a housing of the fuel injection pump, so that the pump plate is pressed against the side surface.
- According to the above structure, the side clearance between the pump element and the pump cover as well as the side clearance between the pump element and the pump plate can be made smaller to increase the fuel feed efficiency and thereby increase a pump performance as the feed pump.
- According to a further feature of the invention, the rotary pump is a vane type pump comprising a rotor formed with vane grooves and vanes movably inserted into the vane grooves.
- In the vane type pump, since the rotor having vanes is driven by a cam shaft and is rotated, the rotor can be floated by equalizing thrust pressures with multiple through-holes formed in the rotor. As a result, the metal contacts between the rotor and the other parts can be suppressed.
- The above and other objects, features and advantages of the present invention will become more apparent from the following detailed description made with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the drawings:

- The present invention will be explained below with reference to the embodiments.
- In the first embodiment, an embodiment is explained in which a fuel supply apparatus of the invention is used in a fuel injection pump of a common rail fuel injection system for diesel engines.
- FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view of a feed pump, FIG. 2 is a front view of a pump element, and FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view of a fuel injection pump.
- As shown in FIG. 3, the fuel injection pump1 is provided with a
main pump 2 for pressurizing and pumping out fuel and a feed pump 3 (See FIG. 1) for drawing the fuel from a fuel tank (not shown) and feeding the fuel to themain pump 2. - The
main pump 2 comprises acam shaft 4 to be rotated being driven by a diesel engine (not shown), apump housing 5 for rotationally supporting thecam shaft 4, aplunger 7 being driven by thecam shaft 4 for reciprocally moving in acylinder 6, and so on. - A
cam 8 which has a circular cross-sectional configuration is fixed to thecam shaft 4, wherein a rotational center thereof is eccentric to that of the cam shaft. Acam ring 10 is rotationally supported at an outer periphery of thecam 8 over abush 9. A pair of flat surfaces are formed in thecam ring 10, wherein the flat surfaces are opposing to each other in a radial direction of thecam 8. - A pair of
cylinder heads 11 is assembled to thepump housing 5 in a liquid-sealing manner, wherein thecylinder heads 11 are opposing to each other in the radial direction of thecam shaft 4. - The
cylinder head 11 is formed with acylinder 6, into which theplunger 7 is inserted, a pump-outport 12 to be communicated with thecylinder 6, and so on. Acheck valve 13 is assembled to the cylinder head at an opposite side of thecylinder 6. Apipe joint 15 is screwed into the cylinder head at an outlet side of the pump-outport 12 for connecting to afuel pipe 14. - The
check valve 13 is disposed between a fuel passage (not shown) to be communicated with a feed pump and thecylinder 6. Thecheck valve 13 will be opened during a suction stroke at which theplunger 7 will be downwardly moved in the cylinder 6 (inwardly moved), to introduce fuel fed from thefeed pump 3 into the inside of thecylinder 6, whereas thecheck valve 13 will be closed during a pumping out stroke at which theplunger 7 will be upwardly moved in the cylinder 6 (outwardly moved) so that the fuel introduced into thecylinder 6 is prevented from flowing back to thefeed pump 3. - The pump-out
port 12 is formed with a small diameter port and a large diameter port. A seat surface of a circular conic is formed between the small and large diameter ports (See FIG. 3). Aball valve 17 is disposed in the pump-outport 12 and is urged by aspring 16 towards the seat surface, so that the small and large diameter ports are blocked by thisball valve 17. - The
ball valve 17 will be lifted from the seat surface when a pressure of fuel, which is pressurized by theplunger 7 during the pumping out stroke, becomes higher than the urging force of thespring 16, and thereby the small and large diameter ports are communicated with each other. - The
plunger 7 has aplunger head 7 a at its inner side end and theplunger head 7 a is urged by aspring 18 and pressed against an outer surface (flat surface) of thecam ring 10. When the rotation of thecam shaft 4 is transmitted to thecam ring 10 via thecam 8, thecam ring 10 moves with an orbital motion along its orbit which is displaced from the rotational center of thecam shaft 4 by a certain distance, while thecam ring 10 is keeping its orientation (Thecam ring 10 is not rotated on its axis and on an axis of the cam 8). As a result, theplunger 7 pressed against the flat surface of thecam ring 10 is reciprocally moved in thecylinder 6. - The
feed pump 3 comprises a pump element PE, apump cover 19 and apump plate 20, as explained below. Thefeed pump 3 is fixed to a side surface of thepump housing 5 bybolts 21, as shown in FIG. 3. - The pump element PE is a well known trochoid type pump, comprising an
outer rotor 22 having inner cogs and aninner rotor 23 disposed inside of theouter rotor 22 and having outer cogs, wherein the inner rotor is connected to thecam shaft 4 via a key so that the inner rotor will be rotated by thecam shaft 4. - The
outer rotor 22 has cogs, the number of which is larger than that of theinner rotor 23 by one cog, and the rotational center 0 a of theouter rotor 22 is eccentrically displaced from the rotational center 0 i of the inner rotor 23 (See FIG. 2). Accordingly, when theinner rotor 23 is rotated by thecam shaft 4, theouter rotor 22 is rotated in conjunction with theinner rotor 23, so that the volume of working chambers formed by the cogs will be changed to pump out the fuel drawn from the fuel tank to themain pump 2. - As shown in FIG. 2, through-
holes inner rotors outer rotor 22 and theinner rotor 23. There are provided with multiple through-holes inner rotors inner rotors 22 and 23). - The
pump cover 19 is formed with a circular rotor chamber 19 a for housing therein the pump element PE, as shown in FIG. 1. An inner diameter of the rotor chamber 19 a is made slightly larger than an outer diameter of the pump element PE (namely, an outer diameter of the outer rotor 23), so that theouter rotor 23 may be rotated therein. A width of the rotor chamber 19 a is made slightly larger than a width of the pump element PE (a thickness in a longitudinal direction), so that side clearances of a certain distance between the pump element PE and inner surfaces of the pump chamber are kept. - The
pump plate 20 is assembled to thepump cover 19 in a liquid-sealing manner to close an opening of the rotor chamber 19 a. Thepump plate 20 is formed with a center bore, through which thecam shaft 4 passes, andfuel ports 20 a (an inlet port and an outlet port) around the center bore (See FIG. 1). Thefuel ports 20 a are communicated to the workingchambers 24 formed between theouter rotor 22 and theinner rotor 23. - An operation of the above first embodiment will be explained. In the
above feed pump 3, the multiple through-holes inner rotors holes rotors rotors holes rotors rotors - According to the above structure, the outer and
inner rotors pump cover 19 and thepump plate 20. In particular, since the through-holes 23 a are formed at every cog top portions of theinner rotor 23, which correspond to an outer periphery of the inner rotor, an inclination of theinner rotor 23 can be effectively suppressed and thereby the uniform side clearances at both of the longitudinal sides along the peripheries of theinner rotor 23 can be obtained. - Accordingly, the problems of the abnormal wear and seizures and the like can be suppressed by preventing the metal contacts between the pump element PE and the
pump cover 19 and thepump plate 20, to finally increase the performance of thefeed pump 3, even when the side clearances between the pump element PE and thepump cover 19 are made smaller to increase the fuel feed efficiency. - In the above first embodiment, the through-
holes inner rotors holes 23 a are formed only in theinner rotor 23 which is directly driven by thecam shaft 4. - FIG. 4 is a front view of pump element PE according to a second embodiment.
- In the first embodiment, the multiple through-
holes inner rotors holes 23 a can be formed in theinner rotor 23 at non-equivalent distances in the circumferential direction. Although only the through-holes for theinner rotor 23 are shown in FIG. 4, the through-holes 22 a can be formed in theouter rotor 22 at non-equivalent distances in the circumferential direction, as in the same manner for theinner rotor 23. - FIG. 5 is a front view of a
rotor 25 according to a third embodiment. - The third embodiment is an embodiment in which the present invention of the rotary pump is applied to a vane type pump.
- The vane type pump has, as shown in FIG. 5, a
rotor 25 formed withmultiple vane grooves 25 a at its outer periphery at equal distance in the circumferential direction, andvanes 26 respectively and movably inserted into thevane grooves 25 a. - When the multiple through-
holes 25 b are formed in therotor 25 and therotor 25 is floated, as in the same manner to the first embodiment, metal contacts with other parts can be prevented and thereby the problems of the abnormal wear and seizures and the like can be suppressed. - In this embodiment as shown in FIG. 5, the through-
holes 25 b are formed at both sides to therespective vanes 26 and the circumferential distance of the through-holes 25 b between therespective vanes 26 is arranged to be equal to each other. However, the circumferential distance of the through-holes 25 b is not necessary to be equal but to be non-equivalent. - The above embodiments are explained as those embodiments in which the fuel supply apparatus of the invention is used in the fuel injection pump of the common rail fuel injection system for diesel engines. The present invention is not limited to these embodiments, and the present invention can be used for a fuel pump for a gasoline engine.
