The invention relates to a camshaft adjuster (1) which comprises a locking device by means of which a drive input and drive output part can be rotationally fixedly locked in a locking rotational position, wherein the locking device has a multiplicity of engagement pairs which comprise in each case one axial bar (16-19; 25-28) which is held in the drive input or drive output part and a bar slot (20-23; 29-32) which is formed in the respective other part, wherein the engagement pairs are designed such that, during an adjustment of the drive output part in the drive direction, the bars can be placed in successive engagement with the bar slots in a relative rotational position between an end rotational position, which lags behind in the drive direction, and the locking rotational position, wherein the bar slots prevent an adjustment of the drive output part counter to the drive direction and permit an adjustment in the drive direction until the locking rotational position is reached.

The invention relates to a device (101) for modifying the timing of gas exchange valves in an internal combustion engine using a hydraulic regulator (102) and a control valve (103). The inventive device (101) is equipped with a central-position locking mechanism for the hydraulic regulator (102). According to the invention, if a controller (112), which regulates the control valve (103), malfunctions, the hydraulic regulator (102) is locked in the central position until the controller (112) is repaired. In addition, the inventive device (101) permits the internal combustion engine to be started in a locked central position, without a displaceable element (105) of the hydraulic regulator (102) striking a lateral wall of a pressure chamber (104) during said start procedure. The invention also relates to a method for bringing the hydraulic regulator (102) into a locked position and maintaining said position for a new start-up of the internal combustion engine in a locked central position.

Provided is a valve timing controller capable of quickening a response in varying a relative rotational phase. When the valve timing controller is under a locking state, if an ECU outputs a phase maintenance signal indicative of a phase maintaining state wherein control for maintaining the relative rotational phase within a predetermined range by work fluid present in an advancing chamber and a retarding chamber is possible, an intermediate locking mechanism is switched to a lock-releasing state and also the relative rotational phase is maintained to an intermediate locking state.

In order to rapidly achieve a restricted state in a valve timing control device provided with a restriction mechanism, the valve timing control device is switchable between a first state in which a fluid is supplied to a communication flow path to lift a restriction by a restriction member and release a lock by a lock member, a second state in which the fluid is supplied to a retarded angle chamber to release the lock by the lock member and set the restriction by the restriction member, and a third state in which the restriction member is restricted and the lock member is locked without supplying the fluid to the communication flow path and supplying the fluid to the retarded angle chamber, and is configured such that the minimum cross-sectional area of an advanced passage for supplying the fluid to an advanced chamber is greater than the minimum cross-sectional area of a retarded passage for supplying the fluid to the retarded angle chamber.
