Abstract:
A multiple variable valve lift apparatus has a simple design that efficiently operates without interference. The apparatus according may include: a camshaft formed in a hollow cylinder shape; a control shaft disposed in the hollow of the camshaft; a cam that rotates together with the camshaft; a cam rod connecting the control shaft with the cam to move together; an operating unit disposed on the exterior circumference of the camshaft to rotate together with the camshaft; an operating unit rod connecting the control shaft with the operating unit such that the control shaft and the operating unit move together; a solenoid selectively connected with the operating unit, and moving the operating unit along an axial direction of the camshaft; and a tappet contacting the cam to transform rotational motion of the cam to rectilinear motion of a valve.
Abstract:
A variable valve lift apparatus that changes a lift of a valve in an engine may include: an outer body; an inner body; a cam contact portion disposed in the second space, rotatably connected to the inner body, and contacting the cam so that the inner body makes a lever motion according to rotation of the cam; a connecting shaft disposed and the one end of the inner body and connect the outer body with the inner body; and a lost motion spring, wherein the inner body is selectively fixed to the outer body or is selectively released from fixing with the outer body, and both ends of the connecting shaft protrude to both sides in the width direction of the outer body and a valve contact portion, which contacts a valve, is formed at the both ends.
Abstract:
A variable valve lift apparatus to vary lift of a valve disposed at an engine may include an outer body selectively making a lever motion according to rotation of a cam, being adapted such that the valve is connected with one end thereof and a pivot axis of the lever motion is disposed at another end thereof, and forming an inside space, an inner body disposed in the inside space of the outer body and adapted such that one end thereof is rotatably connected with the one end of the outer body, a connecting shaft disposed so as to penetrate the one end of the outer body and the one end of the inner body and connect the outer body with the inner body, and a lost motion spring provided so as to return the inner body which is relatively rotated with the outer body around the connecting shaft.

Abstract:
A camshaft-in-camshaft apparatus may include a hollow outer shaft having at least one slot formed along a length direction of the hollow outer shaft, an inner shaft rotatably inserted inside the outer shaft and having at least one pin hole formed on the inner shaft, a position of each of the at least one pin hole corresponding to that of each of the at least one slot, one or more first cam lobes fixedly mounted on an exterior circumference of the outer shaft, one or more second cam lobes fixedly mounted on the inner shaft to be rotatable on the corresponding slot of the outer shaft, a cam phaser changing a phase angle between the outer shaft and the inner shaft by rotating any one of the outer shaft and the inner shaft, and at least one torsional spring mounted between any one of the one or more first cam lobes and any one of the one or more second cam lobes.
Abstract:
An electro-hydraulic variable valve lift apparatus may include an hydraulic pump body installed in an engine, a piston provided to reciprocate within the hydraulic pump body and forming an hydraulic pump chamber together with the hydraulic pump body, an hydraulic pump cam disposed to be in contact with the piston and enabling the piston to reciprocate according to a rotation thereof, a retainer provided to be slidable along the piston between the piston and the engine and forming a retainer chamber with the engine, a retainer spring elastically supporting the retainer, an oil control valve allowing the hydraulic pump chamber and the retainer chamber to selectively communicate with each other, a valve opening and closing unit communicating with the hydraulic pump chamber and opened or closed according to oil pressure supplied from the hydraulic pump chamber.
