摘要: Valve gear for an internal combustion engine includes a first cam (15) mounted to rotate about a first axis, a second cam (21) mounted to rotate about a second axis which is substantially parallel to the first axis, a phase-change mechanism arranged selectively to vary the phase of one of the cams relative to the other, a valve member (29) movable along a valve axis (30), a spring urging the valve member in a first direction along the valve axis and a cam follower (25) which has first and second contact surfaces (18,24) arranged to be engaged by the first and second cams, respectively, and is arranged to transmit movement from the cams to the valve member but is movable with respect to the valve member. The profile of the first cam (15) includes an ascending portion (202) to move the valve member (29) in a second direction opposite to the first direction and a descending ramp (203) to control movement of the cam follower with respect to the valve member. The profile of the second cam (21) includes a descending portion (200) to control movement of the valve member in the first direction and an ascending ramp (201) to control movement of the cam follower with respect to the valve member. The gradient of the ascending ramp (201) and of the descending ramp (203) are substantially the same over at least part of their length. The phase of the two cams is such that the times for which the ascending and descending ramps contact the follower at least partially overlap at a time during which the valve member is stationary in the closed position. This means that the cam follower moves with respect to the valve member and that the cams remain substantially in contact with the cam follower at all times.
