Abstract: Systems and methods for providing partial bleeder braking engine valve actuation are disclosed. In an embodiment of the present invention, a cam may be provided with a main exhaust lobe, a partial bleeder lobe and an inner base circle portion between the two lobes. A rocker arm including an internal rocker passage may be operatively connected to the cam. The rocker arm may contact a valve bridge at a central portion. The valve bridge may be operatively connected to first and second engine valves at its first and second ends, respectively. A slave piston incorporated into the first end of the valve bridge and a master piston may be incorporated into the central portion of the valve bridge. A hydraulic circuit may be provided between the master and slave pistons. A bleed hole may be provided above the slave piston. The master and slave pistons may be selectively actuated and the bleed hole may be selectively blocked and unblocked to provide partial bleeder braking as a result of the valve actuation motion imparted from the cam to the valve bridge through the rocker arm.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a variable valve operating device and a valve opening amount adjustment method, and can accurately control the amount of in-cylinder air and the strength of a swirl flow. The variable valve operating device according to the present invention includes a valve mechanism that can select a dual valve variable control mode in which the valve opening amounts of a first valve and a second valve, which are of the same type and provided for the same cylinder, can be varied continuously or in multiple steps. A valve opening amount difference is provided when the valve opening amounts are minimized in the dual valve variable control mode so that the valve opening amount of the first valve is larger than that of the second valve. In addition, adjustments are made so that the minimum valve opening amount of the first valve does not vary from one cylinder to another.

Abstract: An apparatus and method of controlling vibration-damping for a vehicular internal combustion engine. The combustion is temporarily stopped in some cylinders among a plurality of cylinders, and the engine is operated by the remaining cylinders. Then, a variable valve mechanism which varies a valve lift amount of at least one of intake and exhaust valves of each cylinder is controlled, to decrease the valve lift amount of at least one of the intake and exhaust valves of each cylinder in which the combustion is temporarily stopped. Further, a rotating electric machine having at least one of functions of an electric motor and a generator is controlled, to apply torque to an output shaft of the engine thereby suppressing torque variation in the output shaft at the time when the combustion is temporarily stopped in some cylinders, so that the torque variation due to uneven explosion intervals is reduced.

Abstract: A control device for a diesel engine has a valve timing switching mechanism capable of selectively switching between first opening/closing timing and second opening/closing timing for an exhaust valve. The first opening/closing timing is set such that the period for which the exhaust valve is open overlaps the period for which an intake valve is open, and that opening start timing for the exhaust valve is after bottom dead center of expansion stroke of a piston. The second opening/closing timing is set such that opening start timing for the exhaust valve is advanced compared with the opening start timing according to the first opening/closing timing. A control unit controls the valve timing switching mechanism so that the exhaust valve is opened and closed according to the first opening/closing timing, at least when the diesel engine is operating in a predetermined cold condition.
