Abstract:
An oil supply device includes a plurality of hollow cam shafts, cam shaft journals, and a shaft side path. The hollow cam shafts have through holes that pass in a longitudinal direction from interior to exterior thereof. The cam shaft journals are provided on every position at which the through holes are formed. Each of the cam shaft journals has a path connected with an associated through hole and is coupled with a cylinder head. The shaft side path is formed to supply oil into each hollow cam shaft after the oil sequentially passing from an oil pump through an associated cam shaft journal and an associated through hole.
Abstract:
A variable valve operating apparatus includes a drive camshaft that is rotationally driven by the rotational force of the crankshaft, and a driven cam lobe that is rotatably supported by the drive camshaft. The variable valve operating apparatus further includes a guide member that has a raceway surface formed so as to surround the drive camshaft. The variable valve operating apparatus further includes a link mechanism that is connected to each of the drive camshaft and the driven cam lobe and has a control roller which is in contact with the raceway surface. The variable valve operating apparatus further includes a link plate and holding rollers that maintain contact between the raceway surface and the control roller while the drive camshaft makes one rotation. The variable valve operating apparatus further includes an actuator that drives the guide member.

Abstract:
A camshaft adjuster (1) having a control device (4), wherein by means of the control device (4) a selection can be made between an OPA and-or a CTA mode, and the camshaft adjuster (1) has a third hydraulic medium duct CC which positions the camshaft adjuster (1) in a central position.
Abstract:
A camshaft assembly, comprising a camshaft (2) having a receiving space (6) in an interior thereof, at least some sections of the assembly being made of a magnetizable material, and an electromagnetic actuating unit (4) for actuating an actuating partner (5), comprising a control valve of a camshaft adjuster (3), a coil winding (8) and an armature (7) for cooperating with the actuating partner (5), the armature being adjustable by energizing the coil winding (8). The armature (7) is arranged at least in some sections, preferably completely, inside the camshaft (2) in the receiving space (6) and the coil winding (8) for the non-contact adjustment of the armature (7) is arranged radially outside the camshaft (2), and the camshaft (2) has a first axial section (9) and a second axial section (10), between which a material region (11) influencing the magnetic flow (12) is provided in order to increase the magnetic flow (12) from one of the axial sections (9, 10) to the respective other axial section (9, 10) via the armature (7).
Abstract:
A device (1) for controlling and/or influencing the valve control times of an internal combustion engine, in particular to a camshaft adjustment device, which includes a drive element (2) which is fastened to an attachment part (3) with a screw connection (4), wherein the drive element (2) and/or the attachment part (3) are/is composed of a fiber-reinforced material. In order to obtain a more lightweight design and to be able to reduce screwing forces, the invention provides that at least one of the contact faces (5, 6) between the drive element (2) and the attachment part (3) is at least partially subjected to material-removing processing.
