摘要: Each of a positive spline member and a negative spline member is engaged through a spline engagement with a vane rotor. Both the positive spline member and the negative spline member are securely fixed to a cam shaft by means of a bolt. The cam shaft causes an axial reciprocative movement relative to the vane rotor. Each external spline formed on the positive spline member is brought into contact at its trailing side with an internal spline of the vane rotor. Each external spline formed on the negative spline member is brought into contact at its leading side with an internal spline of the vane rotor. This arrangement eliminates any backlash formed between the internal splines of the vane rotor and the external splines of the positive and negative spline members.

摘要: A variable valve control apparatus which is capable of reducing the size of the entire apparatus. A rotary member is assembled with a timing pulley by a bolt so that it rotates together with the timing pulley. A cylinder head supports the rotary member rotatably but axially immovably. The rotary member supports an intake camshaft rotatably and axially movably. Even if the intake camshaft is axially moved and changed in rotational phase relative to the timing pulley as arc-shaped gears move axially, the rotational phase between an exhaust camshaft and the timing pulley does not change.

摘要: A valve driving apparatus for an internal combustion engine. Each combustion chamber has a pair of intake ports and a pair of intake valves for selectively opening and closing the intake ports. Each intake valve is driven with a variable amount of valve lift. The apparatus includes a camshaft rotatably supported by the engine, cams, cam followers, a shaft moving mechanism, and brackets. Each cam lifts an associated intake valve in response to rotation of the camshaft. Each cam has a cam nose for lifting a corresponding intake valve. The radius of the cam nose varies in the axial direction. Cam followers transmit movement of the intake cams to the intake valves. The shaft moving mechanism moves the cams relative to the valves in an axial direction of the camshaft thereby varying the amount of valve lift. A lifter structure is provided that is circularly shaped to improve manufacturing accuracy. In another embodiment, the valves are oriented to increase the amount of axial movement that the cam can make, which results in greater optimization of the air intake amount.

摘要: In a variable valve control device, the minimum operating hydraulic pressure necessary for controlling the vane rotor is arranged to be higher than that for axially moving the piston member. Thus, whenever the angular phase is actually changed, the hydraulic pressure sufficient enough to move the piston member may be always ready to be applied to the axial movement control member. Therefore, when the intake camshaft is at the lowest lift stroke position, the intake camshaft may be easily shifted from the lowest lift stroke position to the higher lift stroke position without time delay so that a highly accurate angular phase control of the intake camshaft relative to the timing pulley may be secured.

摘要: A valve characteristic control apparatus is provided with a simple structure in which a cam shaft having three-dimensional cams is axially displaced and the cam shaft is rotated with respect to a crank shaft by a ring gear. An axial driving mechanism axially displaces the intake cam shaft and thereby changes working angles of the three-dimensional cams. In this case, engagement of a spline formed on the cam shaft with teeth formed on an inner peripheral surface of the ring gear allows the cam shaft to axially move with respect to a pulley integrated with the crank shaft. A rotational driving mechanism axially displaces the ring gear, so that a helical spline formed on the pulley engages teeth formed on an outer peripheral surface of the ring gear and a spline formed on the cam shaft engages teeth formed on the inner peripheral surface of the ring gear. Thus, the cam shaft rotates relative to the pulley.

摘要: A variable valve timing mechanism of an internal combustion engine varies the rotational phase of a camshaft with respect to a drive shaft to vary the timing of a set of engine valves. The mechanism includes a first rotor for a rotation in synchronism with the drive shaft and a second rotor for a rotation in synchronism with the camshaft. The second rotor has vanes, which are located in hydraulic chambers. Unequal hydraulic forces on the vanes causes the second rotor to rotate with respect to the first rotor to change the rotational phase of the camshaft with respect to the drive shaft. Hydraulic pressure is supplied to a certain side of the vanes to apply forces to the vanes. A lock member locks the second rotor to the first rotor to fix the rotational phase of the camshaft with respect to the drive shaft. The lock member unlocks the second rotor from the first rotor only when the hydraulic pressure supplied to the vanes is such that the torque produced by the hydraulic pressure on the vanes is at least as great as an oppositely directed torque resulting from rotational fluctuation of the camshaft. This prevents the vanes from colliding against the walls of their chambers, which produces noise.
摘要翻译: 内燃机的可变气门正时机构改变凸轮轴相对于驱动轴的旋转相位,以改变一组发动机气门的正时。 该机构包括用于与驱动轴同步旋转的第一转子和用于与凸轮轴同步旋转的第二转子。 第二转子具有位于液压室内的叶片。 叶片上的不均等的液压力导致第二转子相对于第一转子旋转,以改变凸轮轴相对于驱动轴的旋转相位。 液压被供应到叶片的某一侧以向叶片施加力。 锁定构件将第二转子锁定到第一转子以将凸轮轴的旋转相位相对于驱动轴固定。 仅当提供给叶片的液压使得由叶片上的液压产生的扭矩至少等于由凸轮轴的旋转波动产生的相反方向的扭矩时,锁定构件才能从第一转子解锁第二转子 。 这样可防止叶片与其室的壁碰撞,从而产生噪音。

摘要: A valve timing changing apparatus for changing valve timings of intake and exhaust valves inhibits a deterioration in the precision of a change of a valve overlap period. A first variable valve timing mechanism (first VVT) is mounted to an intake cam shaft, and a second variable valve timing mechanism (second VVT) is mounted to a crank shaft. A timing belt drivingly couples a cam pulley mounted to an exhaust cam shaft, a cam pulley of the first VVT, and a cam pulley of the second VVT to one another. The first VVT changes a rotational phase of the intake cam shaft so as to change a valve timing of intake valves. The second VVT changes rotational phases of both the intake and exhaust cam shafts so as to simultaneously change valve timings of the intake and exhaust valves.

摘要: A valve lifter structure having a follower which tilts in a guide groove, for a mechanism for varying valve characteristics of a poppet valve by axial displacement of a three-dimensional cam having a profile varying in the axial direction, which is easily machined without degrading a mechanical strength. A guide groove is formed on a top surface of a valve lifter interposed between a cam and a top of a valve stem of a poppet valve to extend perpendicular to the axis of the cam. A follower is located in the guide groove, which extends in parallel to the guide groove and is capable of tilting in accordance with the change of the cam profile while being brought into slide-contact with the guide groove, and is inhibited from displacing in the extending direction by a limiting means. The guide groove is formed to have opposite open ends. The limiting means is defined by a stopper located on the guide groove side and an abutment member located on the follower side to abut to the stopper. The abutment member is defined by a pair of walls of the follower spaced at a distance opposite to each other in the extending direction thereof.

摘要: An apparatus for controlling valve performance in an engine is disclosed. A first detection blade helically extends on a camshaft. A pair of second detection blades are located on the camshaft and extend axially on the camshaft. An electromagnetic pickup is arranged to face the camshaft. The pickup produces a pulse in response to one of the blades passing by the pickup when the camshaft rotates. ECU computes the axial position of the camshaft based on the change in the time period from the pulse corresponding to the second blade to the pulse corresponding to the first blade.
