Abstract: In a method for setting the rotary angle position of the camshaft of a reciprocating piston internal combustion engine relative to the crankshaft, the crankshaft is connected to the camshaft by means of a triple-shaft gear mechanism. This triple-shaft gear mechanism has a drive shaft which is fixed to the crankshaft, an output shaft which is fixed to the camshaft, and an adjusting shaft which is driven by an electric motor. A crankshaft sensor signal is detected which changes its state when the rotary angle of the crankshaft changes. Furthermore, an adjusting shaft sensor signal is detected which changes its state when the rotary position of the adjusting shaft changes. A phase angle signal is updated, starting from a reference rotary angle value, when the state of the crankshaft sensor signal and/or of the adjusting shaft sensor signal changes, and is adjusted to a provided setpoint phase angle signal. The ignition of the internal combustion engine is then switched off and/or the rotational speed of the crankshaft is lowered to below a prespecified minimum rotational speed value. While the crankshaft and/or the camshaft are/is still rotating, the electric motor is supplied with power in such a way that the camshaft rotates in the direction of a prespecified reference position relative to the crankshaft. When the internal combustion engine is next started, the camshaft and crankshaft are positioned in accordance with the reference position and this is detected with the aid of a sensor. The phase angle signal is set to a reference value and then adjusted to the setpoint phase angle signal.

Abstract: A method for adjusting the rotational angle position of the camshaft (3) of a reciprocating piston internal combustion engine relative to the crankshaft (5) is provided. The crankshaft (5) is drivingly connected to the camshaft (3) via an adjusting drive (1), which is embodied as a triple-shaft gear mechanism, having a crankshaft-fixed drive shaft, a camshaft-fixed output shaft, and an adjustment shaft drivingly connected to an electric motor (4). A stop element is connected to the drive shaft and a counter-stop element is connected to the camshaft (3). The crankshaft rotational angle measuring signal and a position signal for the rotational angle of the adjusting shaft are detected during the starting step of the internal combustion engine. A phase angle signal for the position of the rotational angle of the camshaft (3), based on the initial position, in relation to the camshaft (3) is determined with the aid of the angle measuring signal, the position measuring signal and a gear variable of the triple shaft gear. After immobilization of the crankshaft (5) and the camshaft (3) in a reference position in relation to each other and after detection of the reference position, the phase angle in relation to the reference position is measured and is controlled to a target value signal.

Abstract: A transmission system including a shift mechanism for operating and controlling the transmission system. To automatically detect geometric characteristic values of the transmission system or of the shifting device a selector motor and a shift motor actuate a select or finger that is displaceably mounted in a selection-shift-passageway layout. Starting from an initial position whose coordinates within the selection-shift-passageway layout are unknown, the selector finger is displaced in the directions of shifting and in the directions of selection in order to detect paths of movement in the direction of selection or shifting. The selector finger is repeatedly displaced to establish the maximum paths of movement until the predetermined transmission geometric characteristic values are completely detected. Also disclosed are a control device for controlling a transmission system that includes a shift mechanism, and a method for controlling such a transmission system.

Abstract: A method for positional determination for an EC motor (14) on a device for the adjustment of the rotational angular position of the camshaft (11) of a reciprocating piston combustion engine relative to the crankshaft (12) is provided, whereby a positional measuring signal is tracked on each occurrence of a state change for a sensor signal from magnetic field sensors arranged on the stator of the EC motor (14), provided for detection of magnetic poles of the EC rotor. On error-free measurement, the signal sensor passes through a series of sensor signal states which occur at least twice per mechanical rotation of the rotor. The series of sensor signal states is determined and recorded. A fine correction of the positional measurement signal is carried out using the stored series, when the series of the measured sensor signal values differs from the stored series. Further, the rotational angle of the crankshaft (12) of the internal combustion engine is determined and, using the rotational angle and a drive parameter of an epicyclic drive for the camshaft adjuster device, a coarse adjustment of the positional measurement signal can be carried out on determining a positional measurement error which cannot be eliminated by the fine correction.

Abstract: An adjusting device for the rotational position of the camshaft of a reciprocating piston engine relative to the crankshaft has a variator which is designed as a three-shaft transmission having a fixed-to-the-crankshaft input shaft, a fixed-to-the-camshaft output shaft, and an adjusting shaft. The adjusting shaft is coupled nonrotatably to the rotor of a servomotor. To limit the torsional angle between the camshaft and the crankshaft, the adjusting device has limit stops. The servomotor is connected to a control circuit which is designed for controlling the phase velocity of the torsional angle.

Abstract: In a method for setting the rotary-angle position of the camshaft of a reciprocating piston internal combustion engine relative to the crankshaft, in which the crankshaft has a drive connection to the camshaft via an adjusting gear which is embodied as a triple shaft gear with a drive shaft which is fixed to the crankshaft, an output shaft which is fixed to the camshaft and an adjusting shaft, a phase angle signal for the rotary-angle position of the camshaft relative to the crankshaft is registered. Travel up to a stop is carried out, during which a stop element which is connected to the drive shaft is moved towards a counterstop element which is connected to the camshaft, while the adoption of a stop position is monitored. When the stop position is detected, a stop phase angle value is determined. The phase angle signal is adjusted to a setpoint phase angle signal which is made available. The stop phase angle value is assigned an adjacent or neighbouring phase angle range and the phase angle signal is compared with the phase angle range. If the setpoint phase angle signal lies within the phase angle range, the adjustment of the phase angle signal to the setpoint phase angle signal is interrupted in order to implement further travel up to a stop. For this purpose, the stop element is moved towards the counterstop element while the adoption of the stop position is monitored. When the stop position is detected, the stop phase angle value is determined again and the adjustment of the phase angle signal to the setpoint phase angle signal is then continued.
