Abstract
In the preferred and illustrated embodiment of a reciprocating pump, a plunger for pumping a liquied, a piston for reciprocating the plunger and a selector valve for changing a pilot flow passage between a supply passage communicating a pressure chamber with a supply port and a discharge passage communicating the pressure chamber with a discharge port are disclosed. The selector valve is switched by a pilot valve means. A pilot valve body of the pilot valve means is so designed to engage with the piston for predetermined distances to and from the ends of the respective forward and backward strokes of the piston and to be moved to the switching position where the pilot valve body opens one of the pilot supply passage working against the selector valve and the pilot discharge passage and close the other of the pilot passages and the pilot valve body is released from engagement with the piston and held at the switching position for a predetermined distance after the stroke of the piston is reversed.
