摘要:
The invention concerns a method of making a lever for the valve timing of a piston engine, wherein the lever or at least a part of a multi-piece lever (10) is made from a billet-shaped metal section (1) by an extrusion method. The invention further concerns a lever (10) made by this method.
摘要:
What is proposed is a lever-type cam follower (1) made of sheet metal, typically for a valve train of an internal combustion engine, said cam follower (1) comprising two parallel side walls (3a, 3b) connected by a crossbeam (2), an underside (4) of the crossbeam (2) having a support (6) for at least one gas exchange valve on one end (5), said support (6) being limited by guide walls (7a, 7b) extending parallel to the side walls (3a, 3b), wherein the one end (5) of the cam follower (1) is narrower than the rest of the length of the cam follower (1), and at least in the region of said one end (5), the side walls (3a, 3b) have a smaller mean wall thickness (DSM) than over the rest of said length, which wall thickness (DSM) increases at least in said region continuously from ends (8a, 8b) of the side walls (3a, 3b) in the direction of the crossbeam (2), and the thickness (DF) of the guide walls (7a 7b) is smaller than the mean wall thickness (DSM) in the region of the narrow one end (5). Such a cam follower (1) requires only a small design space in the region of the one end (5) and has a particularly favorable mass moment of inertia.

The invention proposes a cup tappet (1) of a valve train of an internal combustion engine, said cup tappet (1) comprising a hollow cylindrical skirt (3) closed at one end by a bottom (2), said bottom (2) comprising an outer end surface (4) and an inner end surface (6), said outer end surface (4) comprising a contact surface (5) for a cam and said inner end surface (6) comprising a central support (7) for a gas exchange valve, wherein the inner end surface (6) of the bottom (2) comprises a radially extending flat web (8), the support (7) is arranged symmetrically between edges (9, 19) of the web (8), a leg (11, 12) sloping away from the bottom (2) after the manner of a roof extends from each edge (9, 10) up to an inner surface (13) of the skirt (3), and the legs (11, 12) are situated axisymmetrically opposite each other. This cup tappet (1) thus possesses a particularly good rigidity.
摘要:
A rocker arm (1a to 1f) for a valve train of an internal combustion engine is provided having an elongate lever body (2a to 2f) formed out of sheet metal and including a first end section (3), a second end section (5) and a center section (4) formed by two spaced apart, parallel side walls (6a to 6f), having aligned axle-receiving bores (7). The first end section includes a crossbar (11a to 11f) connecting the side walls to each other and two contact surfaces (12) for a simultaneous actuation of two gas exchange valves of the internal combustion engine, and the first end section is configured substantially wider than the center section. The contact surfaces extend on the crossbar while being spaced in transverse direction from the side walls.

摘要:
A mechanical valve tappet for timing the valves of an internal combustion engine comprising a cup-shaped housing (1), consisting of a hollow cylindrical wall (2) closed at one end by a bottom (3) which is exteriorly contacted by a control cam (6), while on the inner surface of the bottom (3), there is arranged an elevation (4) which cooperates with the end of a valve stem of a gas exchange valve (5) and while the other dimensions of the valve tappet remain unchanged, the elevation is made in each case with a different axial extent whereby the valve clearance can be adjusted without the adjusting elements hitherto required by the prior art by inserting the entire cup-shaped housing (1) having the appropriate elevation (4) into the cylinder head.
