Abstract

A fuel injection pump is provided which can be manufactured without an increase in the manufacturing cost and which is configured so that the sealing performance of an electromagnetic spill valve can be maintained with minimum maintenance cost.

Claims (11)

1. A fuel injection pump having an electromagnetic spill valve, wherein the electromagnetic spill valve comprises:

a housing in which an insert piece insertion hole is formed;

an insert piece formed to be substantially a cylinder whose inner peripheral surface has a valve seat and detachably installed in the insert piece insertion hole coaxially;

a spill valve body formed to be substantially a cylinder whose outer peripheral surface has a seal surface facing the valve seat and slidably inserted into the insert piece so that the seal surface can sit on the valve seat when the spill valve body is slid toward a first side of the electromagnetic spill valve in an axial direction of the insert piece;

a stopper which is attached detachably to the insert piece insertion hole and configured to touch the spill valve body when the spill valve body is slid toward a second side of the electromagnetic spill valve in the axial direction of the insert piece;

a solenoid configured to slide the spill valve body toward the first side; and

a biasing member biasing the spill valve body toward the second side,

wherein the stopper touches the insert piece and fixes the insert piece within the insert piece insertion hole, and

wherein an end of the spill valve body is separated from the stopper when the seal surface abuts the valve seat.

2. The fuel injection pump according to claim 1 , wherein, in the electromagnetic spill valve, the spill valve body is supported by only the insert piece.

3. The fuel injection pump according to claim 1 , wherein, in the electromagnetic spill valve, a variable thickness shim is interposed between the insert piece and the stopper.
