    Abstract: A lubricating, enhancing access is provided for a rocker arm for an internal combustion engine. The rocker arm has a cold-formed, one-piece metal body with a narrow width and a substantial depth. The body has a semispherical socket at both ends for engaging respectively the end of a valve stem and the upper end of a push rod. An intermediate portion of the body has a large generally trapezoidal opening with a lower edge longer than an upper edge and a middle portion having a structurally-integral, outwardly-flared portion defining an upwardly-facing socket for engaging a pivot ball wherein the rocker arm pivots during operation. The lubricating passage is formed transversely through and from the top of the narrow width of the rocker arm in at the push rod end of the rocker arm to access and open into the socket recess.

    Abstract: A valve system lifter for combustion engines includes a hard metal face pad connected to a lower-grade metal lifter body. The connecting material is one or more materials that are different from both the lifter body and the face pad. Preferably, the connecting material is a silver-and copper-containing material, that may take the form of a wafer with silver or silver alloy layered over a copper alloy core. The preferred body includes one or more ferrous compounds, and the preferred face includes tungsten carbide. The resulting lifter is resistant to the cracking, breakage, and wear that plague conventional lifters, due to the harsh temperature and impact environment of the lifter. The resulting lifter may be used to reduce the need for change-out and down-time in many engines.

    Abstract: Method and arrangement for delivering EGR gas to combustion spaces in a multi-cylinder, four-stroke internal combustion engine. Each cylinder, with an associated piston, has at least one inlet valve and at least one exhaust valve (10) for controlling fluid interconnection between the combustion space in the cylinder and an intake system and an exhaust system, respectively. A rotatable camshaft (18) having a cam curve (23) is designed to interact with a cam follower (17) for operation of the exhaust valve (10) during a first opening and closing phase. The cam curve (23) is also designed to interact with a second cam follower (20) during a second opening and closing phase which is phase-offset in relation to the first aforementioned opening and closing phase. This configuration facilitates the cylinder being connected to the exhaust system during the induction stroke, once the exhaust stroke is completed.
