Abstract

A rotary distributor fuel pump for an engine is provided with a piston driven by an eccentric bore of a rotating assembly for pressurizing fuel communicated thereto. A rotor is provided for varying both volumetric flow as well as timing of fuel injected to the engine. The rotor is rotated at a speed proportional to the rotational speed of the rotating assembly. Volumetric flow is achieved by a change in the axial position of the rotor. Control of timing can be achieved by changing the rotative position of the rotor relative to the rotating assembly.
