Abstract:
A variable valve lift apparatus includes a camshaft with a first cam lobe and a second cam lobe, a cam follower with a first follower contacting the first cam lobe and a second follower contacting the second cam lobe, a connection rotatably connecting the first follower to the second follower, a main body supporting the first follower and the second follower, a connector selectively connecting the first follower and the second follower to the main body, a lost motion elastic member provided on the main body for supplying restoring force to the first follower and the second follower, and a valve configured to be opened and closed by the cam follower.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a continuously variable valve lift apparatus that includes an output cam driving unit for transmitting a rotation, an output cam that receives the rotation from the output cam driving unit and rotates about an axis at a predetermined angle, an output cam position controlling unit for controlling the axis of rotation of the output cam, and a valve opening unit that is operated by the output cam.
Abstract:
A variable valve lift apparatus may include an inner body of which an end is pivotally connected to an anchor, an outer body of which an end is pivotally connected to the anchor, a roller finger follower of which an end is pivotally connected to a hydraulic lash adjuster, wherein a portion of the roller finger follower is pivotally connected to the outer body, a valve disposed to the other end of the roller finger follower, and a connecting unit selectively connecting the inner body and the outer body.
Abstract:
A cylinder deactivation system for a vehicle and a variable valve lift system is fabricated with an end pivot structure that can control two valves at the same time. The structure ensures reliability since a latching pin does not receive a shear force and provides an excellent assemblage and a cost reduction by minimizing the number of parts Such a cylinder deactivation system may include a rocker shaft having an oil supply hole, a rocker arm, a middle arm, and a latching portion separating the rocker arm from the middle arm when an oil pressure operates through the oil supply hole.
Abstract:
A continuous variable valve lift device includes a valve, which opens/closes a channel by means of reciprocation, a control shaft, which is mounted so as to be able to move toward or away from a reciprocation central axis of the valve, a pivotable shoe, which is pivotably coupled to the control shaft, includes a cam insertion part in a recess or through-hole shape and a slide face slidably contacting an end of the valve, and reciprocates the valve when pivoted, and a drive cam, which comes into contact with an inner wall of the cam insertion part, and pivots the pivotable shoe. Thereby, the continuous variable valve lift device can freely adjust a lift amount and a lift time of the valve without changing positions of the drive cam and camshaft, and thus be easily applied to an existing engine.

Abstract:
A variable valve lift apparatus includes an end lever; a variable lift body connected to the end lever, and rotatable around the end lever, a valve mounted on the variable lift body; and a low lift cam operable to open and close the valve. The variable lift body includes a high lift body, and a low lift body rotatable around the high lift body. A low lift connecting portion selectively connects the low lift body and the high lift body.
Abstract:
A continuous variable valve duration apparatus may vary an opening duration of a valve. The continuous variable valve duration apparatus may include a camshaft in which a camshaft slot is formed, a cam portion of which a cam and a cam slot are formed thereto and of which a rotation center is identical to a rotation center of the camshaft and the cam portion of which a phase angle to the cam shaft is variable, and a duration control portion which varies the phase angle between the camshaft slot and the cam slot.
Abstract:
A variable valve lift apparatus according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention may include an outer part, an inner part disposed in the outer part and connected to a valve, a latching part that is disposed in the outer part and selectively connects the outer part and the inner part, a camshaft supplying torque, a low lift cam that is configured to the camshaft and selectively supplies torque to the inner part, and a high lift cam that is configured to the camshaft and supplies torque to the outer part.
