A RECIPROCATING LIQUID PUMP FOR DELIVERY OF LIQUID FUEL TO A DOMESTIC BURNER DEVICE

摘要

A reciprocating liquid pump (1) for delivery of liquid fuel to a domestic burner device comprises an electromechanical drive means acting on a plunger (5) to reciprocate the plunger in a pump chamber (7) of a pump cylinder (6). Liquid fuel is delivered from the pump during an active strode of the plunger. The active stroke is terminated by pressure relief means (15, 16, 23) which bleed the pump chamber (7) when the plunger is at a distance (d) from the maximum stroke end stop position.
