ABSTRACT:
A fuel injection system for an engine having a combustion chamber, the injection system having at least one fuel injector with a hydraulically operated actuator for amplifying the pressure of fuel injected from the injector into the combustion chamber, the hydraulic actuator communicating with a hydraulic pulse pump having a slide piston displaced by the pressure of compression and combustion gases within the combustion chamber, the fuel pressure having an amplified pressure profile paralleling the developed pressure profile of gases compressed and combusted in the combustion chamber, and in an alternate embodiment the pulse pump delivers high pressure hydraulic fluid to a common rail for use by multiple injectors and including a further embodiment where the high pressure fluid in the common rail is used as the motive fluid for actuating the engine combustion chamber valves.
