    Abstract: A plurality of advanced angle chamber oil paths communicated to advanced angle hydraulic chambers and a plurality of retarded angle chamber oil paths communicated to retarded angle hydraulic chambers according to a change in rotating angle of a cam shaft are provided. The plurality of advanced angle chamber oil paths and the plurality of retarded angle chamber oil paths, respectively, are switched between communication and cut-off according to a rotating angle of the cam shaft. When torque in the direction of advanced angle acts in an advanced angle mode for phase shifting in the direction of advanced angle, the advanced angle hydraulic chambers are caused to communicate to a hydraulic power source and the retarded angle hydraulic chambers are caused to communicate to a drain. Also, at high speed of an engine, in the advanced angle mode, shut-off valves in the advanced angle chamber oil paths and the retarded angle chamber oil paths are opened so that hydraulic pressure is communicated from the hydraulic power source to the advanced angle chambers at all times in the same manner as in the related art.

    Abstract: Internal combustion engine and method with compression and expansion chambers of variable volume, a combustion chamber, a variable intake valve for controlling air intake to the compression chamber, a variable outlet valve for controlling communication between the compression chamber and the combustion chamber, means for introducing fuel into the combustion chamber to form a mixture of fuel and air which burns and expands in the combustion chamber, a variable inlet valve for controlling communication between the combustion chamber and the expansion chamber, a variable exhaust valve for controlling exhaust flow from the expansion chamber, means for monitoring temperature and pressure conditions, and a computer responsive to the temperature and pressure conditions for controlling opening and closing of the valves and introduction of fuel into to the combustion chamber to optimize engine efficiency over a wide range of engine load conditions. The relative volumes of the compression and expansion chambers and the timing of the valves are such that the pressure in the combustion chamber remains substantially constant throughout the operating cycle of the engine, and exhaust pressures are very close to atmospheric pressure regardless of the load on the engine. The engine runs so quietly and burns so cleanly that in some applications it may not require a muffler and/or a catalytic converter.

    Abstract: A guide passage is provided between a driving-side rotator and a driven-side rotator to supply lubricating fluid into an interior of the first rotator. A planetary gear is received in the driving-side rotator and is meshed with a gear portion of the driving-side rotator to make a planetary motion and thereby to change a relative phase between the driving-side rotator and the driven-side rotator. The guide passage guides the lubricating fluid toward a location on a radially outer side of the gear portion and the planetary gear and has a contaminant capturing space to accumulate contaminants contained in the lubricating fluid.

    Abstract: A hybrid camshaft phaser comprising a conventional vane-type hydraulically-actuated phaser to which is coupled an electric motor and gear transmission. The transmission output shaft is coupled to the phaser rotor, optionally via an intermediate clutch mechanism. Under engine operating conditions in which the response of a hydraulic phaser is poor, the electric motor operates to augment the hydraulic actuation. Such conditions include at least low ambient temperatures at which oil viscosities are high, and high ambient temperatures and/or low engine speeds at which oil pressures are low. Preferably, at engine speeds above about 1500 rpm, the electric motor is de-energized.

    Abstract: During a low revolution period, centrifugal force applied to a weight is small and therefore the rotating operation of the weight is restricted. This prevents a lock pin from being fitted to the lock pin fitting hole of a floating cam portion, and the floating cam portion idles around a cam fixing shaft. During a high revolution period, centrifugal force applied to the weight increases, and therefore the weight rotates around the rotation shaft. In this way, the tip end of the lock pin is fitted to the lock pin fitting portion of the floating cam portion. Therefore, during the high revolution period, the floating cam portion is fixed with respect to the rotating direction of the variable valve system by the lock pin.
