Abstract: The invention relates to a method of producing a composite shaft comprising a shaft body (1), at least one first component (2, 9) connected to the shaft body (1) in a rotationally fixed manner, and at least one second component (3, 8) rotatable relative to the shaft body (1), in which method the at least one first component (2, 9) and the at least one second component (3, 8) are pushed onto the shaft body and assembled in the intended sequence. In order to be able to produce such shafts in a simpler and more cost-effective manner and in order to be able to finish-machine the components connected to the shaft body (1) in a rotationally fixed manner only after the complete assembly of the composite shaft, it is proposed according to the invention that at least the first component (2, 9) connected to the shaft body (1) in a rotationally fixed manner be subjected to a machining operation and that the at least one second component (3, 8) be screened from the at least one first component (2, 9) during this machining in such a way that chips produced during the machining of the first component (2, 9) do not penetrate into the space between the second component (3, 8) and the shaft body (1) or between the second component (3, 8) and a third component (21) connected to the shaft body (1) in a rotationally fixed manner.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing a hollow engine valve includes inserting a half-finished hollow shaft section in sequence into die holes which have different hole shapes, and sequentially drawing so as to reduce the outer diameter and the inner diameter of the hollow shaft section and stretch its length in stages. The half-finished product is subjected to heat treatment so that the hardness thereof is lower than or equal to a predetermined level. A shaft end sealing section is formed by increasing the wall thickness of the opening end of the hollow shaft section toward the inside of the opening and the gap in the shaft end sealing section is welded.

Abstract: A method of detecting a gap between a valve seat insert and a port in a cylinder head may include heating the valve seat insert and the cylinder head and generating a thermal image of the valve seat insert and the cylinder head at an interface between the valve seat insert and corresponding port in the cylinder head housing the valve seat insert. The thermal image may be evaluated to determine the magnitude of a gap between the valve seat insert and the cylinder head based on a temperature at the interface between the valve seat insert and the cylinder head.

Abstract: An apparatus for variable setting of control times of gas exchange valves of an internal combustion engine which has a drive element, an output element and a side cover. The drive element is brought into drive connection with a crankshaft, the output element is brought into drive connection with a camshaft, and the output element is arranged such that it can be pivoted with respect to the drive element. The side cover, which has a sealing cover with an opening and a mating element, axially delimits the output element and/or the drive element, and is connected in a rotationally fixed manner to the drive or output element by means of a fastening element. The fastening element reaches at least partially through the opening and interacts with the fastening element producing a rotationally fixed connection between the side cover and output element or drive element.
