    摘要: A valve characteristic controller for an engine including variable valve actuation mechanisms, one for a first valve and another for a second valve, to vary the opening and closing timings of the valves. The controller executes main control to calculate a target timing of the first valve in accordance with an operation state of the engine and has the corresponding variable valve actuation mechanism adjust the timing of the first valve to the target timing. Further, the controller executes sub-control to calculate a target timing of the second valve based on a target valve overlap amount and the actual timing of the first valve and has the corresponding variable valve actuation mechanism adjust the valve timing of the second valve to the target timing. The main control is executed on the one of the two variable valve actuation mechanisms having a lower response speed.

    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 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 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: 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: 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.
