Check valve

1 . A check valve comprising

a valve body with a valve seat embodied in the valve body; and

a valve plunger guided in a guide borehole of the valve body, with a valve disk embodied on the valve plunger which can be applied to the valve seat embodied in the valve body to form a seal;

wherein

an inlet to the check valve is achieved via

at least one supply groove embodied in the front side of the valve body opposite the valve seat; and

at least one supply borehole embodied in the valve body.

2 . A check valve in accordance with claim 1 ,

wherein

two to four, preferably three supply grooves and two to four, preferably three supply boreholes are embodied in the valve body.

3 . A check valve in accordance with claim 1 ,

wherein

each supply groove operates in conjunction with at least one supply borehole.

4 . A check valve in accordance with claim 1 ,

wherein

the supply grooves are arranged in a star configuration with equidistant angle spacings to each other.

5 . A check valve in accordance with claim 1 ,

wherein

each supply borehole is spaced from the guide borehole and the supply borehole ends in an annular area formed by the valve body and the valve plunger above the valve seat.

6 . A check valve in accordance with claim 1 ,

wherein

the supply boreholes run parallel to the valve plunger.

7 . A check valve in accordance with claim 1 ,

further comprising,

a tensioning means which is arranged on the end of the valve plunger opposite the valve disk and

a valve spring which is arranged between the valve body and the tensioning means, with the check valve being pretensioned by the valve spring in its closing direction,

wherein

the tensioning means is a collar attached by a securing element to the valve plunger.

8 . A check valve in accordance with claim 7 ,

wherein

the securing element is a clamping washer.

9 . A check valve in accordance with claim 7 ,

wherein

the valve spring rests at one end against the collar and at the other end against the valve body.

10 . A radial reciprocating pump for high-pressure supply in fuel injection systems of internal combustion engines, comprising:

a pump housing; and

at least one cylinder insert, into which a through-opening forming a cylindrical space is made, into the outer end of which a closure element is fitted which forms a pressure-tight seal of the cylindrical space,

wherein fuel being supplied to the cylindrical space via a fuel supply opening essentially radial to the cylindrical space in the cylinder insert and an intake valve arranged in the through-opening,

and wherein

the intake valve is embodied as a check valve comprising a valve body with a valve seat embodied in the valve body, a valve plunger guided in a guide borehole of the valve body, a valve disk embodied on the valve plunger which can be applied to the valve seat embodied in the valve body to form a seal, an inlet to the check valve formed via at least one supply groove embodied in the front side of the valve body opposite the valve seat, and at least one supply borehole embodied in the valve body.

11 . A pump in accordance with claim 10 , wherein

two to four, preferably three supply grooves and two to four, preferably three supply boreholes are embodied in the valve body.

12 . A pump in accordance with claim 10 , wherein

each supply groove operates in conjunction with at least one supply borehole.

13 . A pump in accordance with claim 10 , wherein

the supply grooves are arranged in a star configuration with equidistant angle spacings to each other.

14 . A pump in accordance with claim 10 , wherein

each supply borehole is spaced from the guide borehole and the supply borehole ends in an annular area formed by the valve body and the valve plunger above the valve seat.

15 . A pump in accordance with claim 10 , wherein

the supply boreholes run parallel to the valve plunger.

16 . A pump in accordance with claim 10 , further comprising,

a tensioning means which is arranged on the end of the valve plunger opposite the valve disk and

a valve spring which is arranged between the valve body and the tensioning means, with the check valve being pretensioned by the valve spring in its closing direction,

wherein

the tensioning means is a collar attached by a securing element to the valve plunger.

17 . A pump in accordance with claim 10 , wherein

the securing element is a clamping washer.

18 . A pump in accordance with claim 10 , wherein

the valve spring rests at one end against the collar and at the other end against the valve body.

19 . A check valve comprising

a valve body comprising a valve seat;

a valve plunger guided in a guide borehole of the valve body,

a valve disk embodied on the valve plunger which can be applied to the valve seat embodied in the valve body to form a seal;

an inlet to the check valve formed via at least one supply groove embodied in the front side of the valve body opposite the valve seat, adapt least one supply borehole embodied in the valve body,

a tensioning means which is arranged on the end of the valve plunger opposite the valve disk, and

a valve spring which is arranged between the valve body and the tensioning means, with the check valve being pretensioned by the valve spring in its closing direction.

20 . A check valve in accordance with claim 19 , wherein the tensioning means is a collar attached by a securing element to the valve plunger.
