Abstract
A fuel quantity regulator for self-igniting internal combustion engines having a fuel quantity regulator rod, an actuator for the regulator rod and an rpm governor. Between the actuator and the regulator rod there is interposed a rocker arm and an intermediate lever. The rocker arm is connected with the actuator, and the intermediate lever is connected to the regulator rod. During correct operation, the rocker arm engages a recess in the intermediate lever and as a result the actuator movement is transmitted to the regulator rod. When an error signal is generated, however, the rocker arm disengages the recess in the intermediate lever, and as a result the regulator rod is disconnected from the actuator so that only the rpm governor is operational relative to the regulator rod.
