Abstract:
A fuel injection system, comprising a fuel injection pump with a pump work chamber (10) defined by a pump piston, said pump piston is driven by a cam drive provided with at least one cam, said pump work chamber serves to supply at least one fuel injection valve (13) with injection quantities of fuel brought to injection pressure during an intake stroke, said injection valve aspirates fuel by way of a suction line (15) for filling the pump work chamber (10), and an electrically controlled valve (24) by way of which the pump work chamber (10) of the fuel injection pump, during a supply stroke of the pump piston is made to communicate with a relief chamber (17) in which the pump piston displaces the fuel from the pump work chamber or the electrically controlled valve is closed in order to control the injection quantity and the instant of injection, and having an interruption of the injection between one preinjection and one main injection per injection event, the at least one cam is embodied such that on a cam flank that causes the pump piston to execute a pumping stroke, that at least one cam has a partial range (P) in which the piston (1), after a first supply stroke for the preinjection, remains at least in its then-reached position in order to interrupt the high-pressure supply stroke, or reverses the stroke, and then, for performing the supply stroke for the main injection, is moved onward, the electrically controlled valve (24) being controlled such that at an onset of the supply stroke for the preinjection the electrically controlled valve is closed and is opened again only to end the main injection.
