Like this, because the tilt angle with respect to cylinder center CL of camshaft 31, different mutually when opening valve when adjusting the valve head gap, for example, in the intake valve 18 of the 3rd cylinder C3, when adjusting the valve head gap, the valve cam 32 of the air inlet side of camshaft 31 on the position shown in Fig. 7 (a), on the contrary, when valve is opened, the valve cam 32 of the air inlet side of camshaft 31 just shown in Fig. 7 (b), from the position shown in the imaginary line to the displacement shown in the solid line.Like this, when adjusting the valve head gap, even determined the valve head gap d, to actual when opening valve, because the rocking arm 34 of air inlet side contacts with the valve cam 32 of the air inlet side of Fig. 7 (a), the valve head gap just becomes bigger than above-mentioned d, and the lift of intake valve 18 has departed from the value when adjusting the valve head gap.
Therefore, with corresponding a part of intake valve of rocking arm and exhaust valve along the distolateral outermost end of cylinder block column direction 25 1, promptly, exhaust side rocking arm 35 corresponding exhaust valves 19 with the first cylinder C1, and with along corresponding another part intake valve of the rocking arm of cylinder block column direction 25 another distolateral outermost end and exhaust valve, promptly, air inlet side rocking arm 34 corresponding intake valve 18 corresponding exhaust sides and air inlet side valve cams 33 with the 3rd cylinder C3,32 valve actuation part 33b, the profile of 32b, the indeclinable valve in angle of inclination with camshaft 31 when adjusting the valve head gap and during valve work, promptly, respectively with the intake valve 18 of the first cylinder C1 and exhaust valve 19 corresponding air inlet side and the exhaust side valve cams 32 of the 3rd cylinder C3,33 valve actuation part 32b, the profile of 33b, that sets is inequality mutually, so that the valve lift of all intake valves 18 and all exhaust valve 19 is identical.In three such cylinder engines of present embodiment, profile with the valve actuation part 33b of the exhaust valve side rocking arm 35 corresponding exhaust side valve cams 33 of the first cylinder C1, do greatlyyer a little than the profile of the valve actuation part 33b of the exhaust side valve cam 33 on the 3rd cylinder C3, and with the profile of the valve actuation part 32b of the air inlet side rocking arm 34 corresponding air inlet side valve cams 32 of the 3rd cylinder C3, do greatlyyer a little than the profile of the valve actuation part 32b of the air inlet side valve cam 32 on the first cylinder C1.
On the other hand, in the second cylinder C2, no matter be intake valve 18 or exhaust valve 19, when adjusting the valve head gap, camshaft 31 is just with respect to cylinder center CL generation inclination as shown in Figure 6, in addition, when opening valve, camshaft 31 is just with respect to cylinder center CL generation inclination as shown in Figure 5.Though the angle of inclination with respect to cylinder center CL of camshaft 31, be in mutual different state when adjusting the valve head gap and when opening valve, valve lift when opening valve will change to the big direction of lift, but, because the second cylinder C2 is in along the central authorities of cylinder block column direction 25, the position of intake valve 18 and exhaust valve 19 is the center of the close second cylinder C2 all, even so there are some deviations in the valve head gap of intake valve 18 and exhaust valve 19 when adjusting, this deviation also is small enough to negligible degree, for the second cylinder C2, even can take into account that the lift of valve 18 and exhaust valve 19 does not change in fact.
But, when critically being set at the valve lift of intake valve 18 among each cylinder C1~C3 and exhaust valve 19 identical, when accurate more control is carried out in air inlet and exhaust, can be the profile of the valve actuation part 32b of the air inlet side valve cam 32 on the second cylinder C2, and the profile of the valve actuation part 33b of exhaust side valve cam 33, do smallerly a little than the profile of the valve actuation part 33b of the profile of the valve actuation part 32b of the air inlet side valve cam 32 on the first cylinder C1 and the exhaust side valve cam 33 on the 3rd cylinder C3.
Below, the effect of present embodiment is described.With along the i.e. exhaust side rocking arm 35 corresponding exhaust valves 19 of the first cylinder C1 of the rocking arm of one of cylinder block column direction 25 distolateral outermost end, and with along the i.e. air inlet side rocking arm 34 corresponding intake valves 18 of the 3rd cylinder C3 of the rocking arm of another distolateral outermost end of cylinder block column direction 25, their pairing exhaust sides and air inlet side valve cam 33,32 valve actuation part 33b, the profile of 32b, form respectively when adjusting the valve head gap and during valve work, the indeclinable valve in the tilt angle of camshaft 31 is the exhaust valve 19 of the 3rd cylinder C3 and intake valve 18 corresponding exhaust sides and the air inlet side valve cam 33 of the first cylinder C1,32 valve actuation part 33b, the profile of 32b is big, so that the lift of all intake valves 18 and all exhaust valve 19 is all identical.
That is, in the motor of three cylinders, the inclination amount of camshaft 31 is very little in the cylinder of the central authorities on cylinder block column direction 25, and the difference in the valve head gap when adjusting the valve head gap and when opening valve is little of negligible degree.On the other hand, because it is very big in the angle of inclination of the camshaft 31 on the two ends of cylinder block column direction 25 difference each other, so exhaust side rocking arm 35 corresponding exhaust valves 19 with the first cylinder C1, with with the air inlet side rocking arm 34 corresponding intake valves 18 of the 3rd cylinder C3, although when adjusting the valve head gap and when opening valve, the angle of inclination of camshaft 31 is under the state that very big difference is arranged mutually, but intake valve 18 with the very little second cylinder C2 of the variation in valve head gap, exhaust valve 19 has same lift, so forms valve cam 32, valve actuation part 32b on 33, the profile of 33b.
Therefore, no matter how camshaft 31 tilts with respect to cylinder center CL, can both prevent effectively that the angle change of camshaft 31 is big, the valve lift at the two ends of cylinder block column direction 25 changes, and can measure maximum position and effectively adjusts in fact influencing the valve scapegoat.
Particularly, because all the valve of intake valve proposes an amount and can both obtain desired same lift, air imbibed quantity among each cylinder C1~C3 is all identical, so when obtaining desirable output power, can also suppress the variation of moment of torsion between each cylinder C1~C3.
And, the valve operating characteristic of valve gear 30, because when the piston 12 of a cylinder is in top dead center in three cylinders, intake valve 18 in other two cylinders and any one in the exhaust valve 19 are set at the maximum lift state respectively, so when setting the valve head gap, the reaction force that acts on the camshaft 31 is just maximum, thereby the angle of inclination of camshaft 31 is also maximum, at this moment, needn't adjust valve cam 32,33 valve actuation part 32b, 33b, equally also can compensate the difference of valve lift, can be by means of definite valve actuation part 32b, the profile of 33b makes actual valve lift farthest near desired value.
In the above-described embodiments, about cylinder along the central authorities of cylinder block column direction 25, the i.e. second cylinder C2, although camshaft 31 is different when adjusting the valve head gap and when opening valve with respect to the tilt angle of cylinder center CL, but can change the valve cam 32 of air inlet side and exhaust side, valve actuation part 32b on 33, the profile of 33b, but, also can make valve actuation part 32b, the profile of 33b is with the tilt angle of the camshaft 31 corresponding valve cam 32 of indeclinable valve when adjusting the valve head gap and when opening valve, valve actuation part 32b on 33, the profile difference of 33b.
One embodiment of the present of invention more than have been described, but the present invention is not limited only to the foregoing description, it can carry out various changes to its design in the scope of the present invention that the claim that originally exceeds the application is put down in writing.
