Abstract
A low pressure side fuel path extending from a fuel inflow port to a feed pump, and a chamber, which can communicate with an inflow/outflow port, are formed by partitioning inside a housing. A cam ring, shoes and rollers are provided in the low pressure side fuel path to induce low pressure, low temperature fuel into the area surrounding the rollers. A space that communicates with the low pressure side fuel path without constriction is formed on the upstream side on the back surfaces of the shoes. A phase of the cam ring and the control sleeve is fixed with the adapter provided on the boundary of the low pressure side fuel path and the chamber. An intake passage communicating with the intake port may be formed in the adapter to shorten the intake path. The area around the rollers, which tends to become heated in an inner-cam type fuel injection pump, is cooled efficiently, cam jump is reduced, control of advance angle is performed separately and independently of the fuel injection quantity control, and the efficiency of fuel intake is improved.
