Inline injection pump
Bosch In-line fuel injection
pumps were first introduced in
1927.
Introduction
An Injection Pump is the device that pumps fuel into the cylinders of a diesel engine.
Traditionally, the injection pump was driven indirectly from the crankshaft by gears, chains or a
toothed belt (often the timing belt) that also drives the camshaft. It rotates at half crankshaft
speed in a conventional four-stroke diesel engine. Its timing is such that the fuel is injected only
very slightly before top dead center of that cylinder's compression stroke. It is also common for
the pump belt on gasoline engines to be driven directly from the camshaft. In some systems
injection pressures can be as high as 620 bar
How does a Inline fuel injection pump work?
The inline fuel injection pump uses a plunger and fuel barrel to pump the fuel. The pump uses
the number of plungers equal to the number of fuel injectors and all are arranged in the same
line.
The inline fuel injection pump consists of the following major components:
-Plunger with a helical groove
-Fuel barrel
-Inlet valve
-Spill hole
-Outlet valve
How does a Inline fuel injection pump work?
-The camshaft arranged below the plunger helps to reciprocate the plunger inside a fuel barrel.
-When the plunger moves downward, the fuel is sucked inside a barrel through an inlet valve.
-During the upward stroke, the plunger develops pressure on the fuel trapped inside a barrel.
-This high-pressure fuel pushes the outlet valve against the spring to open and then the fuel
moves to the injector.
-The amount of fuel supplied is controlled with the help of a spill hole, a helical groove on the
plunger, and a rack and pinion arrangement.
Requirements:
A fuel injection pump is used to supply fuel to the engine at a certain pressure. The pump
generates the pressure and supplies the fuel with the right quantity at the desired timing. The
pressurized fuel is delivered to the nozzle via a high-pressure line. The nozzle injects the fuel
inside the combustion chamber. There are various requirements to be met by a in-line pump,
such as:
-Timing and duration of fuel injection
-The total volume of fuel to be injected
-The amount of pressure to be created
DESIGN:
The in-line fuel injection system consists of the following components:
-Fuel tank
-Feed pump to supply the fuel from fuel tank to the high-pressure pump via a filter
-High pressure in-line pump to pressurize the fuel
-Nozzles to inject the fuel inside the combustion chamber
-Governor to vary the fuel quantity at varying speeds (usually a RSV governor)
.
Failures on an inline pump include:
-Fuel in the oil
-White, black, or blue smoke
-Low power
-No start
-No RPM
-Cylinder not pumping
-Wear from ultra low sulfur
