20150017035 | PUMP HEAD FOR A FUEL PUMP - A pump head for a high-pressure fuel pump is disclosed. The pump head comprises a head housing including a body portion, and a turret portion extending from the body portion, a pumping chamber defined within the body portion, a pumping element bore for receiving a pumping element in use, the pumping element bore extending from the pumping chamber and through the turret portion, and a leakage return passage. The pump head further comprises a sleeve arranged around the turret portion to define a leakage flow path to allow fuel flow from the pumping element bore to the leakage return passage. The pump head is suitable for use in a fuel pump of the type in which a cam drive arrangement of the pump is lubricated by engine oil, since contamination of the engine oil with fuel can be minimised. | 01-15-2015 |

20150118066 | LOAD REDUCTION - A method and apparatus are disclosed for selectively providing a fluid communication path between a plunger element and a contact region of an intermediate element that drives the plunger element. The fluid communication path is suitable for lubricant flow to enable a contact zone to occasionally be lubricated. The apparatus includes an elongate plunger element comprising a first end region, an intermediate element comprising a contact region arranged to selectively abut with and thereby urge a further end region of the plunger element and a spring seat member at the further end region of the plunger element. The spring seat member biases the further end region of the plunger element away from the intermediate element during a portion of a cycle of motion of the plunger element. A fluid communication path is thereby provided between an abutment surface of the further end region and the contact region. | 04-30-2015 |
