Definitions

  • This invention relates to fuel injection systems for internal combustionengines and has for its chief object the provision of an improved fuel-oil circuit arrangement in which freedom from air-locks is ensured.
  • v v t According to the invention there is provided an improved form .of fuel injection system wherein oil passages formed in the fuel pump and the injector are arranged so that during a part of the cycle of the injection system they provide for a complete non-reversing flow of the oil from the source of supply or from one part of the low pressure system through the fuel pump and injector to the nozzle tip and back to the source of supply or low pressure system.
  • the pump plunger is preferably provided with an annular groove which, at the end of a pumping stroke of the plunger, or at a period when the plunger is maintained in its upper-most position, registers with spill ports located at opposite sides of the plunger casing, the said spill ports. being connected with oil channels or conduits which form a part of the aforesaid oil passageway.
  • the pump plunger is provided with an annular groove e which is so arranged that, atthe end of a pumping stroke of the plunger. or at a period when the plunger is maintained in its uppermost position or substantially so, it registers with a pair of spill ports I and 9 formed in the pump barrel and arranged one at each side thereof.
  • the spill port a is in communication with a channel It in the pump passage k formed in part in the pump casing and in part in-the injector so that the passage k, the annular space a and the passages in and z together form what is substantially a horizontally disposed U-shaped passageway.
  • a spring controlled non-return fuel inlet Disposed above the pump plunger is a spring controlled non-return fuel inlet.
  • valve 1 for controlling the passage of fuel under low pressure from a filtering chamber m to the pump barrel, the arrangement being such that the inlet valve is adapted tobe opened during the downward or suction stroke of the plunger and when the plunger is in thepositionshown.
  • the filtering chamber is suitably connected by l .
  • a conduit n with the low pressure source of fuel supply and the spill port I is connected by a passage 0 leading to the low pressure system or back 7 to the source of supply.
  • the plunger moves downwardly away from the inlet valve which remains open and the annular, groove in the during the pumping period provided by the re- I turn movement of the plunger, the spill ports are casing, which channel is in communication with as closed as is also the inlet valve and the said passageway is subjected to high oil pressure which overcomes and opens the spring controlled injector valve d generating a finely divided spray of oil when escaping through the opened injector valve.
  • the injector valve remains open and the spraying of oil continues until the annular groove e again registers with the spill ports I and g which results in a sudden loss of oil pressure causing the injector valve to close sharply and it follows that the continuous one-way passage for the flow of oil under low pressure is again opened.
  • aforesaid passages may be formed entirely within the pump and the injector in which case there are no pipe-lines under high pressure.
  • the invention is also applicable to systems employing an injector which is separate from the pump but, in this case, the passages in the pump must be connected with the passages in the injector by pipe lines which are capable of withstanding high pressure during the pumping stroke and whichcan be utilised for the one-way flow of oil under low pressure during the aforesaid idling period.
  • the oil is preferably pumped by a low pressure pump from the storage tank to the fuel injector pump but, in some instances, it may be supplied under gravity pressure.
  • the oil is caused to pass through one or more filters of known form and, if desired, a filtering element such as that shown at may be arranged in the upper part of the pump. Any known form of .nozzle tip may be used for finely dividing the fuel to form a spray or to atomise the fuel as it 'omerges therefrom.
  • said plunger having an annular groove spacedfrom said end thereof, said injector having a fuel supply line leading thereto from said compression space and further having a fuel return line leading therefrom to the peripheral face of the plunger, said return line being in communication with said'annular groove when the pump non-return valve controlling said outlet passage,
  • said barrel further having an outlet port so located as to register with the; annular groove when the latter is in communication with said fuel return line and adapted toretum fuel discharged therethrough to said source of supply whereby provision is made'for conducting fuel through the injector in a one-way open circuit at low pressure'following the compression stroke of the pump to carry off any air trapped in said fuel lines.
  • Fuel injecting means comprising a casing having a pump including a barrel and an injector including a. valve, a plunger slidably mounted in the'barrel, said barrel having a compression space for cooperation with one end of the'plunger and said plunger having an annular groove spaced from said end thereof, said barrel, casing and injector being formedwith a fuel-delivery channel extending from said compression space to said valve and further being formed with a fuel return channel extending from the valve to the peripheral face of the plunger, said return channel being in communication with said annular groove when the pump ends its compression stroke, said casing further having a relatively large filter chamber adapted to receive fuel from a source of supply and having an outlet passage ,.leading to said compression space, and a non-return valve controlling said outlet passage, said barrel further having an outlet port so located as to register with the annular groove when the latteris in communication with said fuel return channel and adapted to return fuel discharged therethrough to said source of supply whereby provision is made for conducting fuel through the injector in a
