Abstract:
A device (10) for variably adjusting control times of gas exchange valves (9a, 9b) of an internal combustion engine (1), including an external rotor (22) and an internal rotor (23) that is arranged such that it can rotate in relation to the external rotor. One of the components is drivingly connected to the crankshaft (2) and the other component is drivingly connected to the camshaft (6, 7). At least one pressure chamber (33) is provided and each of the pressure chambers (33) is divided into two counter-working pressure chambers (35, 36). One of the working chambers (35, 36) of each pressure chamber (33) acts as an advance chamber and the other pressure chamber (35, 36) as a retarding chamber. At least two rotation angle limiting devices (42, 43) are provided, with each of the rotation angle limiting devices (42, 43) being able to assume an unlocked state and locked state. The locked state can be adjusted by supplying or withdrawing a pressure medium to and from the respective rotation angle limiting devices (42, 43).
Abstract:
A device for variably adjusting the control times of gas exchange valves of an internal combustion engine. The device has a driving element, an output element, at least one pressure chamber, at least one mechanism limiting the angle of rotation, and a pressure accumulator. A phase angle between the output and driving element is changed by delivering or discharging pressure medium to or from the pressure chambers. The mechanism limiting the angle of rotation has a receiving member and an engaging element to which a force is applied towards the receiving member (45). When locked, where the engaging element engages into the receiving member, the mechanism limiting the angle of rotation limits the phase angle of the output element relative to the driving element at least to an angular spread. The mechanism limiting the angle of rotation can be unlocked by applying pressure medium to the receiving member.
Abstract:
A device for variably adjusting the timing control of gas exchange valves of an internal combustion engine. The device has a hydraulic phase adjustment device, a control valve and an auxiliary pressure source. The phase adjustment device can be brought into driving connection with a crankshaft and a camshaft, the phase adjustment device has at least two counter-working pressure chambers, and a phase relation of the camshaft relative to the crankshaft is variably adjustable by charging of the pressure chambers with pressure medium. The control valve has at least one inflow port and a first and a second working port. The inflow port is connectable to a pressure medium pump, and the first working port is connectable to the first pressure chamber and the second working port to the second pressure chamber.
Abstract:
A device for camshaft adjustment in an internal combustion engine which has an inner rotor rotationally fixed to a camshaft. The inner rotor is rotationally adjustable relative to an outer rotor that is driveably connected to a crankshaft. At least one hydraulic chamber limited by side walls is introduced into the outer rotor and is divided into two partial chambers by an element extending radially outward from the inner rotor. To lock the relative movement between the inner and outer rotor, two locking pins penetrating the inner rotor axially engage in two recesses of one of the side walls designed as a locking cover. To adjust the play of the locking pins in the recesses, at least one of the recesses has a stop surface for the locking pin, the position of which changes as viewed circumferentially with the radial distance from the axis of the inner rotor.

Abstract:
A camshaft adjuster which has a control valve and at least one pressure-controlled positioning valve which is connected to a pair of control chambers. The control chambers each have an early chamber and a late chamber and one of the control chambers is designed in such a manner that, in an unenergized basic position of the control valve, in order to set a middle position, the smaller of the early and late chambers of the one of the control chambers is connected to a supply line and the larger of the early and late chambers of the one of the control chambers is connected to a removal line.
Abstract:
A camshaft adjustment mechanism is provided having a rotor adapted to be connected to a camshaft, a stator arranged around the rotor, and a cover associated with the stator. An advance chamber and a separate retard chamber are formed between the rotor and the stator and separated from each other by a vane extending from the rotor. The camshaft adjustment mechanism further includes a locking apparatus adapted to lock the rotor from rotation. A first oil control valve is associated with the advance chamber and the retard chamber to control oil flow to the advance chamber and the retard chamber. A second oil control valve is associated with the locking apparatus to control oil flow to the locking apparatus.
Abstract:
An arrangement of a camshaft phaser (1) which allows a variable pressure boost in that a rotary piston (7) of the camshaft phaser (1) either creates or eliminates a fluid connection between a first pair of working chambers and a second pair of working chambers arranged in the axial direction (23).
Abstract:
A switchable device for supplying at least one consumer of an internal combustion engine with pressure, comprising: a cavity formed inside a camshaft; a first displacement element arranged in the cavity having a first pressure surface which at least partially delimits a first accumulator chamber together with the wall of the cavity; a first energy accumulator which interacts with the first displacement element; a locking mechanism by which the first displacement element can be locked in the second end position; a switching mechanism which can be actuated by an actuator, having a switch element that can be brought into at least two switching positions; a second displacement element arranged in the cavity having a second pressure surface which at least partially delimits a second accumulator chamber together with the wall of the cavity; a second energy accumulator which interacts with the second displacement element; the first accumulator chamber and the second accumulator chamber communicating with each other and being connectible to a pressure source in a fluid-conducting manner.
