THRUST LUBRICATION STRATEGY FOR ROLLER LIFTERS OF A COMMON RAIL FUEL PUMP
Abstract:
A common rail fuel pump (10) includes a cam shaft (18) with at least one cam rotatably supported in a pump housing (11). A plurality of tappet assemblies (30) are each reciprocatingly movable in the pump housing (11), and include an axle pin (40) mounted in a tappet (31), and a roller (50) mounted in contact for rotation about the axle pin (40). Each end of the roller (50) includes a plurality of non-contiguous planar thrust surfaces separated by lubrication grooves (56). A lubrication pathway (44) for the roller (50) includes in sequence a lubrication passage that opens to a roller bearing surface (43), movement along the roller bearing surface (43) into the lubrication grooves (56), and then between the planar thrust surface of the roller (50) and a counterpart thrust face of the tappet (31) responsive to rotation of the roller (50) on the cam shaft (18).
