This article continues to introduce the structure and working principle of mechanical blade type oil transfer pumps and plunger type oil transfer pumps for diesel generator sets. The fuel consumption of diesel engines varies under different operating conditions. When the load is high, the fuel consumption is high, causing the pressure at the outlet of the fuel pump to decrease. At this time, the plunger is pushed by the plunger spring, increasing the stroke of the plunger and increasing the pump oil volume. On the contrary, as the load on the diesel engine decreases, the fuel consumption decreases, the pressure at the outlet of the fuel transfer pump increases, the plunger stroke decreases, and the pump fuel volume decreases accordingly. The oil drain hole is used to remove fuel from the gap between the push rod and the pump body, preventing fuel from flowing along the push rod. Insert the tappet into the cam chamber to dilute the lubricating oil in the cam chamber. The fuel pump is...
