Abstract:
A method for manufacturing a hollow engine valve includes a step for performing rotational plastic working on a follow engine valve body semifinished product which is configured from a shaft part and a valve umbrella part forming portion connected to the shaft part. A columnar hole part is formed from the shaft part to an enlarged diameter section of the valve umbrella part forming portion to thereby reduce the diameter of the shaft part. A necking step follows the rotational plastic working step, necking the hollow engine valve body semifinished product to thereby reduce the outer diameter and the inner diameter of the shaft part. A sealing step seals the leading end of the shaft part to obtain the hollow engine valve.
Abstract:
Forming of a valve head portion (1) of a hollow engine valve (V) comprising a material particularly satisfactory in heat resistance is performed by cold forging. On this occasion, the material with excellent heat resistance is worked to form a valve head portion semifinished product (11) having a hollow hole (S11) whose inner diameter (φ11) is equal to the maximum inner diameter (φ11) of a hollow hole (S1) of a finished product of the valve head portion (1), and having a diameter-increased section (111) whose maximum outer diameter (φ12) is equal to the maximum outer diameter (φ12) of a diameter-increased section (1a) of the finished product. Parts of the valve head portion semifinished product other than a central part to a lower part of the diameter-increased section (111) are necked down by cold forging performed a plurality of times to obtain the finished product of the valve head portion (1). This method of obtaining the finished product is provided by the present invention.
Abstract:
A powder metal component (34) has an outer diameter that is inserted in a bore of another component (18) during assembly with an interference fit between the two components. Ribs (30) are formed on the outer diameter of the component (34) during compaction and sintering of the component. The ribs (30) have a surface that has been compressed to a greater density than a surface (31) of the outer diameter between the ribs to produce a major diameter and effective roundness defined by high points of the ribs.

A device for varying the relative angle position of a camshaft with respect to a crankshaft of an internal combustion engine. A circlip fixes the valve housing in a positively locking manner. The circlip has at least one radially extending circumferential portion which is designed to engage into an annular groove arranged in the camshaft or in the rotor in the axial end region of said camshaft or rotor, wherein the circlip has at least one axially extending retaining portion, wherein the control piston has, in one of the face regions thereof, an annular groove which is designed for the engagement of the at least one axially extending retaining portion, and wherein the valve housing has, in one of its face regions, at least one hook-shaped portion for engaging behind at least one radially extending circumferential portion of the circlip.
Abstract:
A method of manufacturing a lift transmitting component (2), particularly for a gas exchange valve train or a fuel pump drive of an internal combustion engine (1), is provided, The lift transmitting component includes a housing (6), a bearing pin (7) fixed in a reception bore (9) of the housing (6) and a roller (8) mounted through a sliding or a rolling bearing on the bearing pin (7). The bearing pin is core-hardened over an entire axial length to a core hardness of at least 650 HV, and pin ends (10) of the core-hardened bearing pin are radially widened relative to the reception bore for enabling a connection of the bearing pin to the housing (6) through positive engagement. The hardness of the bearing pin is at the most 780 HV, the radial widening of one of the pin ends being realized with a shaping die (11) which travels axially parallel to the bearing pin (7) and applies a force to the pin end in a transition region between a periphery and a front end surface of the bearing pin.

Provided are: a high-toughness cobalt-based alloy containing 25.0 to 40.0 mass % of Cr, 0.5 to 12.0 mass % of a sum of W and/or Mo, 0.8 to 5.5 mass % of Si, and 0.5 to 2.5 mass % of B, 8.0 mass % or less of each of Fe, Ni, Mn, and Cu, and 0.3 mass % or less of C, the sum amount of Fe, Ni, Mn, and C being 10.0 mass % or less, and the remainder comprising 48.0 to 68.0 mass % of Co and unavoidable impurities; and an engine valve coated with the same.
Abstract:
A hydraulic cam shaft adjuster has a driven outer body comprising at least one hydraulic chamber, and an inner body disposed on the inside of the outer body (4), which can be firmly attached to the camshaft and has at least one pivoting wing extending into the hydraulic chamber in the radial direction, thus partitioning the hydraulic chamber into a first working chamber and a second working chamber. The inner body has at least one oil inlet and oil outlet conduit extending from a jacket interior to a jacket exterior of the inner body up to one of the two working chambers. The inner body is assembled using at least one first element and one second element, wherein the two elements each have at least one geometry at front sides facing each other, forming the oil inlet and oil outlet conduit of the inner part together with the other element.
Abstract:
