Miscellaneous items at the Deutsches Museum

Bosch Gmbh, Stuttgart 1942.

Fuel injection pump for the 12 cylinder V engines DB603 & 605. The working pistons of the injection pump is driven by gearing off the cam drive train. The fuel delivery is regulated by the special shape of the working pistons. My changing the orientation of this piston, variable amounts of fuel can be delivered.

(See the Aeroengines section for pictures of the DB601, the 603 & 605 are enlarged versions of this engine.)

Deckel Gmbh, Munich 1942.

Fuel injection pump for the BMW 801, 14 cylinder double row radial engine. The compact build of the 14 pump chambers arranged in a circle is particularily suitable for radial engines. The working pistons are actuated by a lobed cam running on a toothed gear. The principle of a piston actuated by a lobed cam is still utilised today in many pump designs.
