    Abstract: The invention relates to a method of setting the ball travel of a valve-closing body, designed as valve ball (6), of a control valve (7) of a hydraulic valve-lash-adjusting element which has a plunger (1) with a plunger head (2) and a central bore (3) in the same, a valve seat (5) being provided at the outer end (4) of this central bore (3), this valve seat (5) being controlled by a valve ball (6), the ball travel of which is limited by a valve cap (8) which has a cap flange (9) and a cap base (11), the cap flange (9) resting with its bearing surface (10) on a base (17) of a recess (13) of the plunger head (2), and a stop (12) of the cap base (11) serving as a travel limit for the valve ball (6). The identical ball travel of the valve balls (6), which is so important for the operating behaviour of the internal combustion engine and for the wear and noise behaviour of its valve train, is achieved in that, after an internal depth dimension (a) of the valve cap (8) has been measured, this internal depth dimension (a) extending from the bearing surface (10) of the cap flange (9) up to the stop (12) of the cap base (11), and after a projecting dimension (b) of a measuring ball (16), lying in the valve seat (5), relative to the base (17) of the recess (13) has been measured, a calculated value of the ball travel (c=a−b) is determined, and in that, after that, a matched valve ball (6) having the ball diameter required for the desired ball travel is selected from a number of valve balls of different, known diameter and is fitted together with the measured plunger (1) and the measured valve cap (8). The measured actual values of the ball travel of the valve balls (6) can also be corrected by subsequently pressing the valve caps (8) in a controlled manner.

    Abstract: A solenoid valve and manifold assembly for installation on an engine and connecting with hydraulic circuits in the engine for de-actuating the combustion chamber valves of selected cylinders of the engine. A manifold deck is formed with the valving channels and ports therein for connecting to the hydraulic circuits. A gasket is formed with solenoid valve mounting bosses and valving passages as a unitary member and is retained on the manifold deck by a retaining plate preferably stamped from sheet stock with clearance holes received over the valve mounting bosses and secured to the manifold deck over the gasket for sealing the gasket thereon. The valves are inserted in the bosses and retained by a preferably stamped bracket and the bracket, retaining plate and gasket secured to the manifold deck by common fasteners. A common electrical lead frame is received over the valve terminals for making electrical connection to the valves. The assembly of valves and the manifold deck may then be attached to the engine as a unit.

    Abstract: A variable valve actuating mechanism includes an output cam configured for being pivotally disposed upon an input shaft. A first link arm is pivotally coupled at a first end thereof to the output cam. A rocker arm is pivotally coupled at a first end thereof to a second end of the link arm. A first frame member is configured for being pivotally disposed upon the input shaft. Lash adjusting means pivotally couple together a first end of the first frame member and a second end of the rocker arm. The lash adjusting means adjusts the position of the rocker arm relative to the input shaft.

    Abstract: A switchable tappet for directly transmitting a cam lift onto a tappet push rod, includes a housing having a push rod distal end which is formed with a ramp surface for contact by a cam. An inner element is placed in a recess of the housing and has a push rod proximal end formed with an abutment for the push rod. Secured to the push rod proximal end of the inner element is an attachment to extend the inner element beyond the recess of the housing, wherein the attachment has a housing-distal end formed with a shoulder. A helical compression spring extends between the shoulder of the attachment and a rim of the housing for urging the inner element in a direction of the push rod, and conically expands, at least partly, in the direction of the push rod and is wrapped around the attachment of complementary conical configuration.

    Abstract: The invention provides an electromagnetic driving valve of an internal combustion engine provided with a significantly compact shock absorbing means which can reduce an impact sound and a vibration in a contact portion between a first transmission shaft and a second transmission shaft and reduce an impact sound and a vibration generated at a time when a valve portion sits on an intake and exhaust port at a time of closing a valve. A shock absorbing means (27) is provided between a first transmission shaft (14a) extended upward from a valve portion (3) and a second transmission shaft (14b) extended on the same axis thereof and supporting a movable plate (7) between a pair of electromagnets (5, 6). The shock absorbing means (27) is provided with a contact connecting means (28) connected to an upper end of the first transmission shaft (14a) and freely extending and compressing while maintaining a contact with a lower end of the second transmission shaft (14b), and an oil receiving portion (29) slidably inserting the contact connecting means (28) thereto and gradually discharging a fluid charged in an inner portion thereof together with an upward movement of the contact connecting means (28) at a time of a valve closing operation of the valve portion (3), thereby reducing a valve closing speed of the valve portion (3) via the first transmission shaft (14a).

    Abstract: Retention of a roller follower shaft in a follower body is provided by keyed ends formed by flats on the shaft with which a follower roller forms an assembly, together with additional bearings if needed. Slots are provided extending from shaft bore openings through spaced arms of the body to distal ends of the arms. The roller follower assembly is inserted in a pocket between the arms by sliding the keyed ends of the shaft through the slots of the arms to axially align the shaft with the shaft openings. The shaft is then turned about 90 degrees in the openings in which a slight interference fit retains the shaft against lateral motion.
