Diese zur Sicherung des Motorbetriebes getroffene Auslegung ist zwar bei einem Kaltstart der Brennkraftmaschine mit dem gattungsgemäßen Hydrauliksystem prinzipiell rasch rückgängig zu machen in Richtung Früh-Verstellung, jedoch ist eine z.B. innerhalb einer Sekunde zu erzielende Früh-Verstellung dann nicht mehr sichergestellt bei längeren Betriebspausen der Brennkraftmaschine mit durch Leckagen an einem der beiden Ventile abgesenktem Druckniveau im Druckspeicher. EP-B 0 245 791 describes one operated according to the generic method Camshaft adjusting device known in which the mechanical actuating device by appropriate choice of the direction of a helical or helical toothing is designed relative to the direction of rotation of the camshaft so that at Failure of the control / regulating hydraulics in the late position to the stop brought. This is to ensure engine operation when the internal combustion engine is cold started with the generic hydraulic system principally to quickly undo towards early adjustment, however, e.g. Early adjustment to be achieved within one second no longer ensured during longer breaks in operation of the internal combustion engine due to leaks in one of the two valves, the pressure level in the pressure accumulator is reduced.

Das mit dem Druckspeicher 19 in Reihe angeordnete, elektromagnetisch betätigbare 2/2-Wegeventil 18 weist in dem mit dem pumpenseitigen Hydraulikkreis 16 in Verbindung stehenden Druckspeicher-Zulaufweg 17' ein Sitzventil 20 auf. Das Sitzventil 20 dient der Rückhaltung von Druckmedium aus dem Hydraulikkreis 16 im Druckspeicher 19.The pump 9, supply line 11, return line 12 and 4/3-way valve 13 in essentially formed hydraulic circuit 16 is upstream of the check valve 10 A pressure accumulator 19 via a line 17 and a 2/2-way valve 18 connected. The one arranged in series with the pressure accumulator 19 Electromagnetically actuated 2/2-way valve 18 has in the with Pump-side hydraulic circuit 16 connected pressure accumulator inlet path 17 'a seat valve 20. The seat valve 20 serves to retain Pressure medium from the hydraulic circuit 16 in the pressure accumulator 19.

Mit 21 ist eine elektronische Steuereinheit bezeichnet, die über Signalleitungen 22 mit einer Zündanlage 23 in Verbindung steht. Eine weitere Steuerleitung 24 ist mit dem elektromagnetisch betätigbaren 4/3-Wegeventil 13 derart verbunden, daß die Zulaufleitung 11 mit der Steuerkammer 14 des in Spät-Stellung der Nockenwelle 7 stehenden Kolbens 8 verbindbar ist. Schließlich führt von der Steuereinheit 21 eine weitere Signalleitung 25 zum elektromagnetisch betätigbaren 2/2-Wegeventil 18, um über dessen Ablaufweg 17" den Druckspeicher 19 mit der Zulaufleitung 11 zu verbinden.21 denotes an electronic control unit, which is connected via signal lines 22 is connected to an ignition system 23.
