    Abstract: Provided is a variable valve device for an internal combustion engine. The variable valve device includes intake- and exhaust-side swing arms that pivot to open and close intake valves and exhaust valves in two cylinders #1, #2, intake- and exhaust-side hydraulic lash adjusters that serve as pivot points of the respective swing arms, a variable valve system that continuously varies valve lift characteristics of the intake valves and lost motion mechanisms that stop opening and closing of the intake exhaust valves by lost motion of the intake- and exhaust-side hydraulic lash adjusters on the cylinder #1. The maximum valve lifts of the intake valves are set larger than valve lifts of the exhaust valves. The minimum valve lifts of the intake valves are set smaller than the valve lifts of the exhaust valves.

    Abstract: A valve train of an overhead camshaft engine is provided with a mechanism for taking up slack in the valve train. The slack take up mechanism is constituted by a tappet, an oil pressure chamber, a coil spring, etc. and constructed such that leakage of the oil pressure chamber takes place for take up adjustment during each cycle of valve operation.

    Abstract: A rocker arm mechanism includes a rocker arm shaft, a rocker arm, a valve clearance adjuster, a valve train, and a control valve. The rocker arm is rotatably disposed on the rocker arm shaft. The valve train includes a valve bridge. The rocker arm is provided with a plunger chamber. The valve clearance adjuster includes a hydraulic tappet slidably disposed in the plunger chamber. The plunger chamber is supplied with oil through an oil supply passage. The control valve is configured to open or close the oil supply passage. When the control valve opens the oil supply passage, the hydraulic tappet can abut against the valve bridge and eliminate the clearance between the valve bridge and the hydraulic tappet.

    Abstract: Systems for valve actuation in internal combustion engines provide configurations for hydraulic lash adjusters and valve actuation valvetrain components that are particularly suitable for prevention of HLA jacking in lost motion cam environments and in valve bridge environments. In one implementation, a rocker arm may transmit motion from a lost motion cam having main event and auxiliary event lobes. Main event motion is transmitted to two engine valves through the rocker arm, a lash adjuster, lash adjuster loading component and valve bridge, which define part of a first load path. Braking motion is transmitted to one of the engine valves through an inboard valve actuator and bridge pin, which define part of a second load path. The HLA is thus disposed in a separate load path from the braking valve load and the lash adjuster loading component keeps the lash adjuster under a constant compressive force to prevent jacking.

    Abstract: Air is restrained from flowing into a high pressure chamber while the number of parts is reduced. A plunger is slidably fitted into a body; a reservoir is formed in the plunger with a communication hole formed in a head section thereof to allow communication between an inside and an outside; a high pressure chamber is formed in the body between the body and the plunger bottom section; an oil supply hole is formed in a plunger circumferential wall section; a return spring is interposed between the body and the plunger; a valve mechanism is disposed on the plunger bottom section; the reservoir is set such that a space continuously extends; and the oil supply hole is oriented outward in the radial direction as compared to an axis of the plunger.

    Abstract: Hydraulic engine valve lifter includes a pair of pistons defining a pressure chamber therebetween and a separate lash adjusting piston which defines a lash adjustment chamber with one of the pistons in the pair. One-way valve structures permit fluid to flow from the pressure chamber into the lash adjustment chamber thereby displacing the lash adjusting piston to, in turn, adjust valve lash. Motion damping functions during a downstroke of the lifter pistons are also provided by a valve damper chamber and fluid passageways between the pressure and damper chambers. Structure is provided which opens communication between the pressure and damper chambers during upstroke of the lifter pistons (thereby precluding motion damping) and then closes communication at a predetermined location during downstroke (thereby providing motion damping).

    Abstract: A hydraulic lash adjuster has a generally cylindrical, hollow body having a closed end, an open end and a top land at the open end. A plunger is positioned in the body and is held in place by a retainer. The retainer is fastened to the exterior of the body. The retainer has a rim supported on the top land of the body and is held in place by tabs which are folded under into grooves in the side of the body.
