Definitions

  • the invention relates to an actuating device for two parallel rotating camshafts according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
  • phase divider is in each case at the same end of the two camshafts on which they are driven by the crankshaft.
  • the invention is based on the general idea of arranging the phase splitter in the generic camshaft device such that the usual, from the crankshaft as a drive source outgoing chain drive in a structurally simple manner can be designed or remain as he is not adjustable by a phase splitter Camshafts is commonly used.
  • Fig. 1 shows a schematic structure of an actuating device according to the invention.
  • crankshaft 1 2 Parallel camshaft, namely a first camshaft 3 and a second camshaft 4 are driven via a chain 2 as a power transmission member.
  • Both camshafts 3, 4 each consist of concentric nested, mutually rotatable shafts, namely an outer shaft 3 'and an inner shaft 3''in the first camshaft 3 and an outer shaft 4' and an inner shaft 4 '' in the second camshaft.
  • Each firmly connected to an inner and an outer shaft 3 '', 4 ''; 3 ', 4' are outer shaft cam 3 ''',A''' and inner shaft cam 3 IV and 4 IV .
  • the inner shafts 3 '', 4 '' are rotatably mounted within the outer shafts 3 ', 4'.
  • This phaser 5 has two mutually rotatable areas, one of which is fixedly connected to the inner shafts 3 '' and 4 ''. Actuation of this phase adjuster 5 causes a relative rotation of the inner shaft 4 "relative to the outer shaft 4 'of the camshaft 4. To achieve a synchronous drive of the inner shafts 3", 4 ", the region fixed to the inner shaft 4" is connected of the phaser 5, for example, designed as a chain power transmission element 6 with the inner shaft 3 '' of the camshaft third The camshafts 3, 4 are rotatably mounted in the engine in bearings 7.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un dispositif d'actionnement pour deux arbres à cames tournant en parallèle. Ce dispositif doit être réalisé de façon à optimiser l'espace d'installation. À cet effet, l'invention prévoit une configuration selon laquelle : les deux arbres à cames (3, 4) sont chacun constitués de deux arbres tournant l'un par rapport à l'autre et disposés concentriquement l'un dans l'autre; un des deux arbres (3', 3'; 4', 4') est respectivement entraîné à une extrémité des arbres à cames (3, 4) par le vilebrequin (1) par l'intermédiaire d'un unique organe de transmission de force (2) à action directe; et un régleur de phase (5) est prévu à l'autre extrémité des arbres à cames (3, 4) pour permettre un mouvement relatif simultané des deux arbres (3'',4''; 3', 4' ) au moyen d'un élément de transmission de force (6) qui agit sur le régleur de phase (5) et qui relie en transmission de force une région d'un arbre à cames (3, 4), fixement reliée à un arbre intérieur ou extérieur (3', 4'; 3', 4'), à un arbre intérieur ou extérieur (3', 4'; 3', 4') de l'autre arbre à cames (4, 3), à déplacer de façon correspondante.
