A high-pressure pump having a drive shaft and at least one pump element including a pump piston driven in a reciprocating motion by the drive shaft. A ring on which the pump piston is braced via a support element is rotatably supported on a portion of the drive shaft that is disposed eccentrically to its pivot axis. The ring and/or the support element, at least in their contact region, has many microscopic indentations, and a solid lubricant film is applied to the ring and/or to the support element, at least in their contact region.

High-pressure pump for a fuel injection system of an internal combustion engine

A fuel supply system, having a housing, in which a pistonlike element is disposed longitudinally displaceably in a bore and is guided sealingly in the bore by a guide portion. On one end, the guide portion adjoins a first fuel-filled chamber, and on its other end it adjoins a second fuel-filled chamber. At least one recess extending at least approximately in the circumferential direction is embodied in the guide portion of the pistonlike element and extends over at least part of the circumference of the pistonlike element and, viewed in the longitudinal direction of the pistonlike element, has an asymmetrical cross section.

Fuel supply for internal combustion engines

A device for supplying fuel at high pressure to an internal combustion engine, having a pistonlike element which is disposed longitudinally displaceably in a bore of a component. The pistonlike element is guided with a sealing portion in a guide portion of the bore, and the guide portion discharges at one end into a pressure chamber that can be filled with fuel at high pressure and at the other end into a leak fuel chamber. At least one channellike recess is embodied on the sealing portion of the pistonlike element, or the guide portion and this recess communicates hydraulically with the pressure chamber and is sealed off from the leak fuel chamber, except for the annular gap formed between the pistonlike element and the inner wall of the guide portion, and as a result the pistonlike element is hydraulically centered in the bore.
