    Abstract: A length-adjustable connecting rod has a first rod part and a second rod part, with the rod parts being displaceable telescopically toward and/or in one another by means of a length-adjusting means, and with the length-adjusting means being chargeable via a hydraulic channel with a hydraulic medium. The hydraulic channel is fluidly connectable by means of a control device to a hydraulic medium supply channel. The control device has a first and a second valve, each with a valve chamber and each with a valve body that can be pressed by a restorative force against a valve seat. The valve chamber of the first valve is fluidly connected to a first hydraulic channel, and the second valve chamber of the second valve to a second hydraulic channel. The valve bodies are operatively interconnected via a connecting device that can be displaced between a first position and a second position.

    Abstract: A length-adjustable connecting rod for a reciprocating-piston engine. At least one first rod part and second rod part are telescopically displaceable relative to and/or into one another. The second rod part forms a guide cylinder and the first rod part forms a piston element which is longitudinally displaceable in the guide cylinder. Between the first and second rod parts is a high-pressure chamber into which at least one first oil duct opens. At least one control valve is arranged in the first oil duct, with an actuator thereof to be displaced into a first position by a spring and into a second position by oil pressure against the force of the spring. To permit adjustment of the compression ratio, a second oil duct formed as a feed duct opens into the high-pressure chamber and in which a check valve is arranged which opens in the direction of the high-pressure chamber.

    Abstract: The invention relates to a variable valve control device (1) for internal combustion engines of the reciprocating-piston design having at least one gas exchange valve, which can be actuated by a camshaft (3) by means of a cam device (4) that is connected to the camshaft (3) for conjoint rotation and that has at least two different cam tracks (7, 8), which camshaft is supported in such a way that the camshaft can be rotated about a camshaft axis (2), wherein, selectively, one of the cam tracks (7, 8) can be activated and at least one other cam track (8, 7) can be deactivated by means of a control device (10), and wherein the control device (10) has at least one control element (11), which is guided axially, in particular within the camshaft, and by which at least one cam device (4) that is supported on the camshaft (3) for conjoint rotation but axially movably and that has at least two different cam tracks (7, 8) can be adjusted by means of at least one driving piece (12). In order to enable reliable and fail-safe variable valve actuation in the simplest possible manner, at least one blocking element (20) is provided for blocking and releasing the axial adjustment motion of the cam device (4), wherein the blocking element (20) has a control stud (21) fixedly connected to the cam device (4) and a—preferably stationary—control disk (22) arranged coaxial to the camshaft (3), wherein the control disk (22) has, in at least one angular region, at least one control opening (25) for receiving the control stud (21).

    Abstract: The invention relates to a length-adjustable connecting rod (1) for a reciprocating piston machine, comprising at least one first rod part (2) with a small connecting rod eye (3) and at least one second rod part (4) with a large connecting rod eye (5), both rod parts (2, 4) being movable in relation to each other or inside each other in a telescoping manner. The second rod part (4) comprises a guide cylinder (8) and the first rod part (2) is securely connected to a piston element (7) that can move longitudinally in the guide cylinder (8), a first high-pressure chamber (10) being mounted on a first side of the piston element (7) between the second rod part (4) and the piston element (7), and a second high-pressure chamber (12) being mounted on a second side of the piston element (7), at least one sealing element (22, 24) being provided for sealing at least one high-pressure chamber (10, 12). The aim of the invention is to allow a wear-resistant seal between the two rod parts (2, 4) as easily, compactly and reliably as possible. To this end, the piston element (7) is non-positively connected to the first rod part (2) by means of an interference fit (30) in a interference-fit region (30a).

    Abstract: The invention relates to a length-adjustable con rod (1) for a reciprocating piston engine, particularly an internal combustion engine, having at least a first and a second rod part (2, 4), wherein the two rod parts (2, 4) can be pushed together and/or inside one another in a telescoping manner, wherein the second rod part (4) forms a guide cylinder (4a) and the first rod part (2) a piston element (3) which can be pushed longitudinally in the guide cylinder (4a), wherein a high-pressure chamber (4b), into which at least one oil channel (10) opens, is clamped between the first and the second rod parts (2, 4). To enable the compression ratio to be adjusted in the simplest and most reliable manner possible, according to the invention the two rod parts (2, 4) can be fixed, by a locking device (32), relative to one another in at least one position, preferably corresponding to a minimum length of the con rod (1).

    Abstract: A longitudinally adjustable connecting rod for a piston engine, where the connecting rod includes a first connecting rod end for receiving a piston pin and a second connecting rod end for receiving a crankshaft journal, where the distance between the piston pin and the crankshaft journal is adjustable in the longitudinal direction (A) of the connecting rod by way of a hydraulic control device with a hydraulic control valve. The hydraulic control valve comprises a control cylinder and a control slide which is guided in a slidable manner in the control cylinder and which can be pressurized, and at least one outlet valve which can be actuated by the control slide. The control slide comprises a control piston which is arranged on the end face, with a control pressure surface which can be subjected to the hydraulic control pressure and which defines a control pressure chamber in the control cylinder. The use of such a longitudinally adjustable connecting rod with a hydraulic control device in a piston engine as well as a corresponding piston engine is also provided.
