摘要:
Planetary gear mechanisms are useful in distributor fuel injection pumps to couple a distributor rotor with a drive shaft in order to rotate the distributor rotor at a preselected output angular speed which is proportional to and less than a preselected input angular speed of the drive shaft.Previously disclosed planetary gear coupling arrangements are typically rather bulky and merely provide an angular speed reduction function. In contrast, the subject thrust and planetary gear coupling provides a relatively more compact arrangement for angular speed reduction and also includes a stationary dual-thrust plate which controls axial end play of both the drive shaft and the distributor rotor. The coupling further includes a relatively inexpensive and easy to assemble planet gear and carrier assembly which during operation rotatively drives the distributor rotor at the same output angular speed and which can also bear against the dual-thrust plate to act as a running thrust member.

A dual fuel engine powers a machine by burning natural gas and liquid diesel fuel. When operating in a low load mode, some of the engine cylinders are fueled with a high ratio of diesel/gas, and the remaining cylinders are unfueled. When operating in a high load mode, all of the engine cylinders are fueled with a low ratio of diesel/gas. When operating in a limp home mode, the fuel injectors are configured to inject only diesel fuel into all of the plurality of engine cylinders.

A dual fuel compression ignition engine operates by injecting gaseous fuel and liquid diesel fuel from a common fuel injector directly into each engine cylinder. The gaseous fuel is ignited by compression igniting a small pilot injection quantity of the liquid diesel fuel. Evaporated natural gas from a cryogenic tank and/or a fuel conditioning module is dosed into an intake manifold of the engine with an electronically controlled supply valve. The electronically controlled supply valve may open to supply evaporated gas to the intake manifold contingent upon combustion conditions in the engine cylinder demonstrating a low risk of methane slip, and the dosing quantities are limited to reduce risk of ignition of an air/gas mixture in the intake manifold.

A fluid injector for an exhaust treatment device is disclosed. The fluid injector may have a housing at least partially forming a fluid chamber. The housing may have a central axis, and a fluid passageway configured to supply fluid to the fluid chamber. The supply of fluid may be in a tangential direction relative to the central axis.

A fuel system includes a plurality of fuel injectors each defining a nozzle supply passage, a nozzle outlet, a low pressure space, and a drain. The fuel system includes a plurality of mechanically actuated pressure intensifiers each including a tappet and being positioned partially within one of the fuel injectors, and a common rail fluidly connecting with each of the fuel injectors. Each of the fuel injectors further includes an injection pressure control mechanism having an injection pressure control valve. Each injection pressure control valve blocks the corresponding pressure intensifier from the common rail and fluidly connects the pressure intensifier with the low pressure space at a first position, and fluidly connects the pressure intensifier with the common rail and blocks the pressure intensifier from the low pressure space at a second position. Each of the fuel injectors further includes a pressure recovery mechanism having a pressure recovery valve. Each pressure recovery valve blocks the corresponding pressure intensifier from the common rail and fluidly connects the low pressure space and the drain at the first position, and fluidly connects the low pressure space with the common rail and blocks the low pressure space from the drain at the second position. Injecting fuel via operating the fuel system may include operating the fuel system in a low leakage mode where the pressure intensifier displaces fuel at a low pressure, between high pressure injections.

A liquid pump includes an electronically controlled throttle inlet valve to control pump output. With each reciprocation cycle, a plunger displaces a fixed volume of fluid. When less than this fixed volume is desired as the output from the pump, the electronically controlled throttle inlet valve throttles flow past a passive inlet check valve to reduce output. As a consequence, cavitation bubbles are generated during the intake stroke. Cavitation damage to surfaces that define the inlet port passage are avoided by a specifically shaped and sized cavitation flow adjuster extending from the valve member of the passive inlet check valve. By positioning the cavitation flow adjuster in the inlet port passage, a flow pattern is formed in a way to encourage cavitation bubble collapse away from surfaces that could result in unacceptable cavitation damage to the pump.

A fuel system for an engine including a cylinder head having a first bore and a second bore intersecting the first bore is disclosed. The fuel system includes a common rail and a fuel injector coupled to the cylinder head and at least partially received within the first bore. The fuel system also includes a one-piece hollow tube, extending linearly from the common rail to the fuel injector through the second bore. The one-piece hollow tube is configured to communicate high pressure fuel from the common rail to the fuel injector.
摘要:
Electrically controlled fuel injection systems should be able to operate at low voltage. In order to operate an electrically controlled fuel injection system at low voltage, the voltage available to an electrical actuator is monitored. The electrical actuator is coupled to a valve positioned within a passageway in which high pressure actuation fluid flows to and from an hydraulically actuated device, such as a fuel injector and/or an engine brake. If the voltage available to the electrical actuator falls below a predetermined voltage, the pressure differential across the valve is reduced. Although the principal application of the present invention is in the fuel injection system, the present invention has application in any electrically controlled fluid system at low voltage.

A dual solenoid latching actuator is disclosed and provides an electrical circuit that includes at least one current restrictor, which are preferably a first diode and a second diode. The at least one current restrictor is positioned and arranged such that current flowing in a first direction can energize only one of a first solenoid coil and a second solenoid coil and current flowing in a second direction can energize only the other solenoid coil.

An engine includes an engine housing having an oil pan with an amount of oil therein. An oil lubricating system for the engine has a low pressure pump attached to the engine housing. A hydraulic system, which uses the same oil as the lubricating system, has a high pressure pump positioned in the oil pan, attached to the engine housing, and at least partially submerged in the oil.
