Displacement of a mechanical element is accurately detected by a simple and inexpensive structure. To provide displacement detecting device including: a mechanical element capable of being displaced; a magnet connected to the mechanical element and magnetized in displacement direction of the mechanical element; and a magnetic sensor for detecting a magnetic flux generated by the magnet and outputting a sensor output corresponding to a detected magnetic-flux value, so as to detect displacement of the mechanical element in accordance with the sensor output. In one embodiment, a Hall element is used as the magnetic sensor and the magnet longer than distance of movement of the mechanical element is used. Thus, an output having a linear relation with displacement of the mechanical element is obtained, and detection of the displacement is easily implemented. The displacement detecting device can be applied to an actuator of intake/exhaust valves of an engine. In another embodiment, a magnetic material provided between the Hall element and a spring to reduce the disturbance caused by the spring. Moreover, a transfer shaft connected to the intake/exhaust valve is made of a non-magnetic material or a material having characteristics close to the non-magnetic material to reduce the effect of leakage flux.

Secondary vibration generated accompanying reciprocation of a piston (21) of a multi-link variable compression ratio engine (E) can be eliminated effectively, even when the direction of the secondary vibration is inclined relative to a cylinder axis (L1), by inclining the direction (shown by arrow) of an excitation force generated by a secondary balancer system (43) so that it coincides with the direction of the secondary vibration. The secondary balancer system (43) is formed by supporting balancer weights (44a, 45a) on a pair of balancer shafts (44, 45) rotating in directions opposite to each other, and by displacing the phases of these balancer weights (44a, 45a) the direction of the excitation force generated can be inclined so as to coincide with the direction of secondary vibration of the engine (E).

There is provided a provide a solenoid actuator which is capable of smoothly driving a driven member, with enhanced durability, and at the same time permits the stroke of the driven member to be changed with ease. A solenoid actuator drives a valve by an electromagnetic force such that the valve performs reciprocating motion. An armature is connected to the valve, for performing reciprocating motion in accordance with energization and deenergization of at least one electromagnet to thereby drive the valve such that the valve performs the reciprocating motion. The armature has two end faces extending in parallel with each other in a direction orthogonal to a direction of the reciprocating motion thereof. Two guide joints have respective two guide surface opposed to the two end faces of the armature, each formed with two armature guides. The two guide joints slidably guide the reciprocating motion of the armature in a state of the two end faces of the armature being in line contact with the four armature guides of the two guide surfaces thereof.

A core of a solenoid actuator is provided which is improved in durability and at the same time ensures high energy efficiency of the solenoid actuator. The core of the solenoid actuator attracts an armature during operation of the solenoid actuator. A plurality of core plates are formed of a magnetically soft material and laminated in a predetermined direction orthogonal to a direction of attracting the armature to form a laminated stack. The core plates form magnetic circuits between the armature and the core plates themselves during the operation of the solenoid actuator. Two core holders formed of a non-magnetic material sandwiches the laminated stack of the plurality of core plates from opposite sides along the predetermined direction. The plurality of core plates are each coated with insulating film, which insulate adjacent two core plates from each other. Further, a rod formed of a non-magnetic material rigidly secures the plurality of core plates and the two core holders to each other to form a unitary assembly.

A main journal 25a of a crank-shaped swinging shaft 25 which swings in a range of a predetermined angle is supported by bearing metals 51 and 52 each divided into two pieces. In supplying a lubrication oil through an oil bore 51b in the bearing metal 51 to a sliding surface of the main journal 25a and to inlet openings of lubrication oil passages P1 and P2 of the swinging shaft 25 open to the sliding surface, the inlet openings of the lubrication oil passages P1 and P2 of the swinging shaft 25 are designed so that they do not move past division portions 55 of the bearing metals 51 and 52 upon swing of the swinging shaft 25 in the range of the predetermined angle. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the lubrication oil to be supplied to the lubrication oil passages P1 and P2 from leaking from the division portions 55 of the bearing metals 51 and 52, thereby reliably lubricating a pin journal 25b of the swinging shaft 25 by the lubrication oil supplied from the lubrication oil passages P1 and P2.

The invention provides an electromagnetic driving valve of an internal combustion engine provided with a significantly compact shock absorbing means which can reduce an impact sound and a vibration in a contact portion between a first transmission shaft and a second transmission shaft and reduce an impact sound and a vibration generated at a time when a valve portion sits on an intake and exhaust port at a time of closing a valve. A shock absorbing means (27) is provided between a first transmission shaft (14a) extended upward from a valve portion (3) and a second transmission shaft (14b) extended on the same axis thereof and supporting a movable plate (7) between a pair of electromagnets (5, 6). The shock absorbing means (27) is provided with a contact connecting means (28) connected to an upper end of the first transmission shaft (14a) and freely extending and compressing while maintaining a contact with a lower end of the second transmission shaft (14b), and an oil receiving portion (29) slidably inserting the contact connecting means (28) thereto and gradually discharging a fluid charged in an inner portion thereof together with an upward movement of the contact connecting means (28) at a time of a valve closing operation of the valve portion (3), thereby reducing a valve closing speed of the valve portion (3) via the first transmission shaft (14a).

A valve operating system for an internal combustion engine includes a valve-opening electromagnet and a valve-closing electromagnet for exhibiting an electromagnetic force for attracting an armature to operate an engine valve, and a valve-opening resilient means and a valve-closing resilient means for maintaining the armature at a predetermined neutral position during deenergization of the electromagnets. In each electromagnet, a coil is inserted between inner and outer yokes which are disposed in the form of a double-cylinder such that they open at their ends opposed to the armature and are magnetically coupled to each other at their ends opposite from the armature, and the coil is positioned so that the coil protrudes from at least one of the yokes toward the armature. The armature has an annular accommodating portion provided in a surface thereof opposed to each the electromagnets and capable of accommodating that portion of the coil which protrudes from the yoke. With such a structure, it is possible to increase the electromagnetic attracting force of each of the electromagnets and to enhance the performance of the engine.

A valve operating system in an internal combustion engine which provides a stable seating force for an engine valve and includes an armature operatively connected to a stem of the engine valve that is capable of being seated on a valve seat member provided to a cylinder head, valve-opening and valve-closing electromagnets for exhibiting electromagnetic forces for attracting the armature to open and close the engine valve, respectively, and valve-opening and valve-closing resilient means for exhibiting resilient forces for biasing the engine valve in opening and closing directions, respectively, and for retaining the armature in a predetermined neutral position by cooperation with each other during deenergization of both the valve-opening and valve-closing electromagnets. When the engine valve V is closed by energizing the valve-closing electromagnet and is seated on the valve seat member, only the resilient force of the valve-closing resilient means is applied to the engine valve V because the valve-closing electromagnet attracts the armature and compresses the valve-opening resilient means.
