Claims
- 1. A multi-cylinder fuel injection pump for internal combustion engines comprising a pump housing made of a light metal, said pump housing including a plurality of reception bores therein, each of said reception bores including a large diameter portion and a small diameter portion formed by a shoulder, a plurality of pumping elements inserted one each into each of said reception bores of said pump housing, each of said pumping elements comprising a cylinder sleeve having a large diameter portion and a smaller diameter portion approximately the same as said large and smaller diameter portions of said reception bore and a shoulder that seats on said shoulder of said reception bore, each of said cylinder sleeves including an axial cylinder bore,
- a pressure valve body (12) having an outer diameter substantially the same diameter as said cylinder sleeve and an axial bore therein having the same longitudinal axis as said axial cylinder bore and positioned in said reception bore axially juxtaposed said cylinder sleeve, a steel plate tightly secured to an upper end face of said light metal housing to form a part of said pump housing, said steel plate including a plurality of aligned threaded apertures, each of said threaded apertures being in axial alignment with each of said plurality of said reception bores with said threaded apertures having a smaller diameter than said larger diameter portion of said reception bores, a threaded nipple threaded into each of said threaded apertures in said steel plate, whereby each said cylinder sleeve and said pressure valve are clamped together and tightly fastened axially in one of said reception bores between said shoulder of said reception bore and an inner end of one of said threaded nipples by means of said threaded nipples threaded into said threaded apertures in said steel plate, the thickness of said steel plate being substantially equal to the length of said threads on said nipple, said threaded nipple including an axial spring chamber, a movable value member having a large portion in said spring chamber and a small extension extending into said bore of said pressure valve body, a valve seat on an upper end of said pressure valve body, a spring in said spring chamber that forces said movable valve member against said valve seat, and a pump piston slidably guided in said cylinder bore provided with at least one oblique control edge and rotatable to vary the fuel supply quantity for said fuel combustion engine.
- 2. A fuel injection pump as set forth in claim 1, which includes a work chamber in said cylinder sleeve bore, a suction chamber in said housing, and at least one bore that extends from said work chamber to said suction chamber.
- 3. A fuel injection pump as set forth in claim 1, in which said thickness of said steel plate is such that a proper tightness of said cylinder sleeve and said pressure valve body is established on assembly.
