    Abstract: An adjustable camshaft sprocket assembly includes a hub and a sprocket body secured to the hub. A stud-receiving opening is defined in one of the hub flange and the sprocket body, and a tool-receiving opening is defined in the other of the hub flange and the sprocket body. The tool-receiving opening is aligned with the stud-receiving opening and is adapted to receive a body portion of an adjustment tool, and the stud-receiving opening is adapted to receive an eccentric stud of the adjustment tool. Either the stud-receiving opening or the tool-receiving opening is elongated. Rotation of the adjustment tool when its body is located in the tool-receiving opening and its eccentric stud is located in the stud-receiving opening causes relative angular movement between the hub and the sprocket body. One or more fasteners are used to immovably secure the sprocket body to the hub after adjustment. A tool includes cylindrical base, a driving head, and an eccentric stud. The stud comprises a spring pin press-fit into a bore.

    Abstract: Apparatus for permitting selective adjustment of the angular position of a sprocket or gear relative to a driven shaft for changing the timing of an internal combustion engine includes a circular sprocket carried on an end face of the cam shaft in axial alignment with the shaft's axis of rotation. A first pin extends from the end face parallel to the axis of rotation at a location radially outwardly thereof through an enlarged opening in the sprocket. An adjusting plate is engaged with the sprocket on the side opposite the end face. The adjusting plate is positively engaged with the first pin with a second pin extending between the adjusting plate and the sprocket parallel to the axis of rotation but at a radial location different than the first pin such that angular adjustment of the adjusting plate about the axis of the first pin produces angular adjustment of the sprocket relative to the axis of rotation of the shaft.

    Abstract: A roller chain timing drive reduces noise by thinning the teeth and elongating the root land in between each pair of teeth. Specifically, through detailed calculation, the root land is elongated resulting in a reduced thickness of the teeth as measured across itself from a drive flank to a coast flank. The result is maintained contact of all rollers wrapped around a sprocket throughout the entire design life of the chain and sprockets which reduces noise.

    Abstract: An adjustable timing gear arrangement having an output shaft and a camshaft operable in timed relationship with the output shaft comprises a first rotatable drive member driven by the output shaft with a second rotatable drive member mounted on the camshaft and operably connected with the first drive member for rotation in timed relation therewith. The second drive member is mounted on the camshaft for rotation on a common axis with the second drive member and the camshaft and is secured thereto to fix the angular relationship of the members. The mounting permits limited relative angular rotation of the members when the members are not so secured. For adjusting the relative angular positions of the second drive member and the camshaft there is an assembly including an unthreaded, cylindrical stud extending from the camshaft into a radially extending slotted opening through the second drive member. The opening includes angularly spaced, parallel sides. An eccentric cam is freely rotatable on the cylindrical stud and closely fits between the parallel sides of the slotted opening. A tool receiving portion on the cam is arranged for permitting selected rotation of the cam to cause relative angular adjustment of the second drive member relative to the camshaft. The slotted opening and the eccentric cam have cooperating interengaging portions lying in a plane perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the camshaft for retaining the cam in the slotted opening while permitting free rotation of the cam relative to the second drive member.
