M. L. JoHANssoN FUEL INJEcTloN PUMP Filed July 8, 1947 F/G. E.
Patented Sept. 20, 1949 FUEL INJECTION PUMP Martin Leonard Johansson, Enskede, Sweden, asslgnor to Injector Company Aktiebolag, Stockholm,A Sweden, a corporation of Sweden Application July s, 1947, serial No. 759,561
In sweden July 13, 1946 3 Claims. (Cl. 103-41) The present invention relates to a fuel injection pump for internal combustion engines and having a plunger which is rotatableabout its longitudinal axis and carries a lever which, upon being actuated, rotates the plunger to regulate the quantity of liquid fuel injected by each plunger stroke, said plunger being operated by means of a reciprocable tappet' and being accommodated in a plunger housing having two chambers, of which the one chamber, vcalled the plunger chamber, accommodates the outer end of the plunger and the other, called the cam shaft chamber, accommodates a cam shaft or the like reciprocating the tappet which chambers are separated by a partition having a through-going bore guiding the tappet.
Such pumps, having a lever on their plunger, have generally been made with a divided pump casing to enable the mounting of the plunger. This involves, however, a complication and the present invention has for its object to bring about a simplification in this respect and consists substantially therein that the pump casing is undivided and made in one piece and that the bore is provided with a longitudinal slot adaptedto allow the plunger with its lever to be brought through the cam shaft chamber to the plunger chamber in mounting the pump.
The invention will be described more in detail vwith reference to the accompanying drawings illustrative of the invention and in which:
Fig. 1 is a transverse vertical section through a pump embodying the invention; and
Fig. 2 is a fragmentary cross section of the pump casing taken on the line 2-2 of Fig. 1.
As will be seen from the figures the pump casin-g I is made in one piece. The cam shaft 2 is provided with a cam 5, which imparts to the tappet 6 the axial reciprocating movement thereof. The tappet is accommodated in the bore 22 in the partition 23 above which there is the plunger chamber 24 and below which there is the cam shaft chamber 25. 'I'he tappet actuates in turn the plunger 1 which runs in a plunger barrel` 8. Above the plunger barrel there is provided a valve housing!) having a delivery valve- I which is held down in closed position by means of a compression spring mounted in a nipple II. BarrelI 8 and housing 9 are held seated in the casing I by the pressure from nipple II acting through the packing I2. The nipple II at its upper end is connected to a delivery conduit not shown on the drawing and leading to an injection nozzle of the engine.
The regulation as to the quantity of fuel takes place in known manner by rotating the plunger which is provided with, a control portion I3 having an oblique control edge. Said control portion covers an overflow or relief port Il as long as the injection ltakes place. Through rotation, of the plunger the axial length of the control portion is varied in relation to the overflow port I4 whereby different eiicient lengths of the delivery stroke and thus different delivered quantities of fuel are obtained.
The rotation of the piston takes place in known manner by actuating a lever I5 force-fitted on to the plunger 1. A vertical portion I6 of the lever I5 runs through a slot in a catching arm I1 rigidly mounted on a control rod I8. The latter is accommodated in the casing so as tobe displaceable axially therein. As 4compared with the known control device having a tooth segment engaging a control rack, it is more advantageous to use a lever I5 as illustrated because the lever will require considerably less force for its shifting and greater tolerances will be allowable in the manufacture.
Hitherto known pumps provided with a con` trol lever have a divided pump housing in order to facilitate the mounting of the plunger. This complication hasbeen avoided according to the present invention by providing an axial slot I9 in the partition of the pump housing laterally of the bore for the tappet.
In mounting, the barrel 8 is first lowered from the upper end of the pump casing whereupon the spring 20 and the washer 26 are introduced from below from the cam shaft chamber 25 and then the plunger 1 with its lever I5 are inserted. The slot I9 is so dimensioned that the lever passes freely therethrough when the plunger is lifted axially through the barrel 8. It is not feasible to mount the plunger in another manner, for instance, by turning it inwardly obliquely through a door 2|, provided the barrel is removed, because the spring 20 is so still' and long that considerable risk is run of damaging one or more of the parts.
The slot renders possible easy assembly and at the same time enables the pumphousing to be made in asimple and compact manner.
Obviously numerous variations in the design of the different specific elements of the pump may be made without departing from the principles of the invention, the scope of which is to be understood as embracing all apparatus falling within the purview of the appended claims.
` What is claimed:
1. A fuel injection pump of the plunger type comprising an integral one piece housing providing a plunger chamber and a cam shaft chamber,
3 said chambers being separated by a partition forming a part of said housing, a reciprocable plunger located in said housing with its outer end in the plunger chamber, said plunger being rotatable about its longitudinal axis to control the amount of fuel delivered by the pump and having a laterally extending control element associated therewith adapted to engage a control member in the plunger chamber for turning the plunger, a tappet located in a bore through said partition for moving said plunger, and a cam shaft located in the cam shaft chamber and having a cam for actuating said tappet, said partition having a laterally extending recess communicating with said bore, whereby to permit said plunger and associated control element to be assembled in operative position in said plunger chamber by being passed `through said partition from the cam shaft chamber.
2. A pump as set forth in claim 1, in which said control element is in the form of a laterally,
ananas extending arm and said recess is in the form of a laterally extending slot to accommodate the passage of said arm.
3. A pump as set forth in claim 2, in which the outer end of said arm is provided with an actuating portion substantially parallel with the plunger and said control member comprises an axially movable part engaging the actuating portion of the arm. y
