Abstract: A valve timing control system for varying a valve timing determines whether an engine operating condition falls within a specific valve timing range established for a specific valve timing or a standard valve timing range, other than the specific valve timing range, established for a standard valve timing. A valve timing device is activated so as to change a valve timing to the standard valve timing when the engine operates in the standard valve timing range. The valve timing device is also deactivated so as to change a valve timing to the specific valve timing when the engine operates in the specific valve timing range.

Abstract: A valve driving mechanism for a double overhead camshaft engine includes a camshaft drive mechanism, including a camshaft sprocket for transmitting engine output from a crankshaft of the engine to one of intake and exhaust camshafts. A valve timing varying mechanism is driven so as to vary a valve timing of, for example, a set of intake valves relative to a valve timing of a set of exhaust valves. The valve timing varying mechanism includes a first helical gear, mounted on the exhaust camshaft for rotation, a second helical gear, in mesh with the first helical gear, which is rigidly secured to the intake camshaft, and a cylindrical sliding element, mounted on the exhaust camshaft for axial displacement. The cylindrical sliding element operationally couples the exhaust camshaft to the camshaft drive mechanism so as to cause a relative rotational displacement therebetween when the cylindrical sliding element undergoes axial displacement with respect to the exhaust camshaft.

Abstract: A valve-controlled internal combustion engine has an device 13 for adjusting the camshaft 2 relative to its timing gear 14. The adjusting device has an operating sleeve, which is interlocked over different gear systems, on the one hand, with the timing gear and, on the other, with the camshaft, and a hydraulic adjusting piston, which can be acted upon on both sides. Pressure is caused to act upon the adjusting piston by means of the engine oil, which is circulating under pressure and which is branched off before a restrictor 11 in the inflow to the bearings 12 in the cylinder head 2 of the internal combustion engine. By these means, the full pressure of the lubricating pump 7 can be used to shift the operating sleeve.

Abstract: A phase adjustment mechanism for setting the phase of the engine camshaft relative to that of the crankshaft. The operative coupling of the crankshaft to the camshaft is via two sets of splines, one set having pitch different from that of the other set. A spline engagement ring contains a spline of one set on its O.D. and a spline of the other set on its I.D. The axial positioning of the ring controls the relative phasing and is accomplished by a screw and nut mechanism with the nut being operated by a worm drive that is under the control of the engine ECU.
