摘要:
A variable valve driving apparatus of an internal combustion engine, including a drive shaft rotatably supported by a cam bracket, a drive cam disposed about an outer periphery of the drive shaft, a link arm having a first end connected to the drive cam, an oscillating cam extending from the drive cam configured to press and release a drive valve of the engine to open and close the drive valve, a link rod having a first end rotatably connected to the oscillating cam, and a control shaft rotatably supported by the cam bracket. The control shaft includes a main shaft rotatably supported by the cam bracket, an eccentric shaft spaced apart from the main shaft, and a plurality of webs connecting the main shaft and the eccentric shaft. The eccentric shaft is connected to an oscillating arm configured to transfer a drive force of the drive cam. The oscillating arm has a first portion rotatably connected to a second end of the link arm and a second portion rotatably connected to a second end of the link rod, the first and second portions being spaced apart axially with respect to the eccentric shaft. A first flow path for supplying lubricant to a first sliding contact area between the oscillating arm and the eccentric shaft is formed through the control shaft. The first flow path extends from the main shaft to the eccentric shaft through a web located beside the second portion of the oscillating arm.
摘要:
A valvetrain mechanism of an engine, including a drive shaft configured to rotate in synchronization with the engine, a link arm having a large end and a small end, the drive shaft being inserted into and passed through the large end, a valve lift control shaft disposed parallel to the drive shaft and having an eccentric portion, an oscillating arm disposed rotatably at the eccentric portion of the valve lift control shaft and interconnected with the small end of the link arm via a first rotation support point, a link rod interconnected with the oscillating arm via a second rotation support point positioned at a same side as the first rotation support point with respect to the valve lift control shaft, and an oscillating cam interconnected with the link rod via a third rotation support point and operated correspondingly with an operation of the drive shaft to thereby open a valve. A thickness of the small end of the link arm in a direction of the drive shaft is thinner than a thickness of the large end of the link arm in the direction of the drive shaft.
