DRIVE
July 6, 2023
In a reciprocating high-pressure fuel pump that operates a plunger while facing a cam ridge of a plunger driving cam provided on a camshaft to which power of a crankshaft of an internal combustion engine is transmitted, the cam ridge includes a cam curved surface including two apexes at a cam angle interval of 180° and two valley bottoms at a cam angle interval of 180° and alternately connecting the apexes and the valley bottoms, and a crossing angle between a first virtual line connecting the two apexes and a second virtual line connecting the two valley bottoms is not a right angle as viewed in a direction of a camshaft axis.
