Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an adjusting device for a camshaft, according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
  • a adjusting device for a camshaft of an internal combustion engine known, soft one driven by a crankshaft of the internal combustion engine drive element, a camshaft of the internal combustion engine driving output element and an actuating element, which is beautschlagt by a brake, wherein by varying the braking torque on the actuator relative rotation between the output element and driven element is reachable.
  • the design of the adjustment allows any phase angle between the drive element and output element.
  • the brake is designed as a non-contact working, electromagnetic brake; preferably a hysteresis brake is used; whose braking torque is independent of the speed.
  • the present invention is therefore based on the object to provide a Vierstellvorrichtüng for a camshaft, which is inexpensive to produce.
  • an adjusting device for a camshaft comprising a brake system and an output side connected to the camshaft and the crankshaft drive side superposition gear, the superposition gear for adjusting the camshaft dissipates a part of the drive-side energy in the brake system, wherein the brake system is designed as a frictional braking system in which the required braking force is generated via a friction lining in permanent slip.
  • the adjusting device according to the invention has an additional mechanical lock.
  • a phase adjustment between the drive-side sprocket or pulley and the output-side camshaft can be made or a phaselage once set are held in position
  • the frictional braking system is designed as an electromagnetically actuated friction system.
  • the ⁇ bertag réellesgetriebe can be designed as a planetary gear or as a transmission with two sun gears and a two-stage planet, with each form of a superposition gear is suitable for use in the system according to the invention.
  • the cost is reduced because expensive elements of non-contact systems are not needed and required in the system fail-safe locking can be made as part of the peel movement in the friction lining.
  • a complete actuator can be saved.
  • FIGURE is a schematic sectional view of a preferred embodiment.
  • the frictional braking system with additional mechanical locking of the adjusting device comprises an electrically actuated switching coil 1, which has a friction surface 8, a magnetic friction lining 2 with a locking element 6 and a spring 3, wherein the locking element 6 with a drive-side element 5 of the superposition gear 7 interacts.
  • the friction lining 2 is axially movable but rotationally fixed to a spur gear 4 of the superposition gear, 7 fixed.
  • the ⁇ beragerungsgstriebe 7 is designed as a transmission with two Sonnenstirnziern 4.9 and a two-stage planet 10.
  • the camshaft is rotatably connected to the second spur gear 9 of the Matterlagerungsgefriebes 7; the drive is connected to the planet carrier.
  • the superposition gear 7 as a planetary gear, it is advantageous to arrange the friction lining 2 on the Finverzahhung; In this case, the camshaft is connected to the ring gear.
  • switching coil 1 When not energized switching coil 1 is no electromagnetic force on the friction lining 2, so that by the force of the spring 3 on the friction lining 2, the spur gear 4 via the friction lining 2 and the locking element 6 is positively connected to the drive-side element 5 of the superposition gear 7.
  • the required phase position can be set and held via a planetary gear set or another transmission gear.
  • the friction lining 2 is flooded oil; This can be done either from the outside (oil mist, etc.) or from the middle of the camshaft.
  • the friction lining 2 can be used as a paper coating with special embossing, comprising e.g. Radial grooves with waffle pattern, or be designed as a carbon coating. In the version as a carbon lining this can have a covering thickness of about 0.05 mm.
  • a carbon coating has the advantage that the wear is very low.
  • the braking torque can also be generated via a mixed friction
