FUEL PUMP DEVICES, SYSTEMS, AND METHODS

Disclosed herein are devices, systems, and methods relating to high-pressure fuel pump designs and features. A high-pressure fuel pump assembly includes a body, a camshaft, and an embossment. The body has a forward end and a rearward end opposite thereof and configured to couple to a low-pressure fuel pump. The camshaft is received and secured within a central bore of the body so as to be rotationally movable within the central bore. A coupler end of the camshaft is configured to couple to a drive shaft of the low-pressure fuel pump. The embossment includes at least one fastener boss configured to receive a fastener to couple the low-pressure fuel pump to the high-pressure fuel pump assembly. The embossment is formed at the rearward end of the body such that thermal stresses that cause geometrical deformations at the embossment are reduced through a range of engine temperature operating conditions.
