Definitions
- the cylinder of an internal combustion engine can be operated in two different operating modes. If only one cam is used instead of two cams of different strokes and, instead of a second cam, a base cam without cam lift, the cylinder can be switched off with the aid of the valve drive. In such a deactivated state, a cam follower coupled to a gas exchange valve of the cylinder does not interact with the single cam, but with said base circle, so that the gas exchange valve is not actuated.
- a valve train of the aforementioned type is known from DE 199 45 340 A1.
- the basic idea of the invention is therefore to provide a valve drive with a purely mechanical adjusting device, by means of which the cam follower can be adjusted between a first and a second axial position.
- the use of conventional adjusting means with pneumatic or hydraulic components can be omitted in this way. This means a considerably simplified design of the valve train, which in turn is accompanied by a reduced space requirement.
- a valve train according to the invention comprises a camshaft and a cam follower.
- On the camshaft rotatably mounted are a first cam and, axially adjacent to this, a second cam. Through the central longitudinal axis of the camshaft, an axial direction can be defined.
- the first cam can be arranged axially at a distance from the first cam or rest against this.
- the cam follower is axially adjustable along an axial direction.
- the cam follower is axially adjustable between a first position, in which the cam follower is drive-connected to the first cam, and a second position, in which the cam follower is drive-connected to the second cam.
- the cam follower according to the invention has a cooperating with the camshaft mechanical adjusting device for axial displacement of the cam follower between the first and the second position.
- the mechanical adjusting device has an adjustable first mechanical engagement element. This cooperates for the axial adjustment of the cam follower from the first to the second position with a first cam guide present on the camshaft.
- the adjusting device also has a producible second mechanical engagement element, which cooperates for the axial adjustment of the cam follower from the second to the first position with a second link guide provided on the camshaft.
- the mechanical adjusting device comprises a first actuator.
- the first actuator By means of the first actuator, the first mechanical engagement element is adjustable between a first position, in which it in the first Sliding link engages, and a second position is adjustable, in which it does not interfere with the first slotted guide.
- the mechanical adjusting device comprises a second actuator, by means of which the second mechanical engagement element is adjustable between a first position in which it engages in the second slotted guide, and a second position is adjustable, in which it does not engage in the second slotted guide.
- the use of such actuators also makes it possible to dispense with pneumatic and / or hydraulic adjusting means, which can only be realized technically with considerable effort, for adjusting the respective engagement element.
- the first actuator is adjustable between an inactive position and an active position.
- the adjustability can be realized such that the first actuator is in the inactive position out of contact with the first engagement element and by moving from the inactive position to the active position the first engagement element by mechanical contact from the second to the first Position adjusted.
- the second actuator alternatively or in addition to the first actuator between an inactive position and an active position can be adjusted. According to the first actuator and the second actuator in the inactive position with the second engagement member is out of contact. By adjusting from the inactive position to the active position, the second actuator adjusts the second engagement element by mechanical contact from the second to the first position.
- the adjustment of the first and / or second engagement element from the first to the second position is expediently carried out with the aid of the lifting movement of the cam follower.
- the cam follower is replaced by the the second cam caused stroke movement to the two actuators to move. If these are in their active position, then the respective engagement element is pressed by the lifting movement of the cam follower and thus of the respective engagement element against the respective stationary in the active position relative to the camshaft, ie immovable actuator and in this way from the actuator in his second position "shifted".
- An active adjustment of the first or second engagement element by an active movement of the first and second actuator can be omitted in this way. Accordingly, the two actuators can be structurally very simple, resulting in cost advantages in the production.
- the two actuators can be designed as linearly adjustable, electrically driven actuators. In this case, they can be controlled in a simple manner by a control device of the valve drive for adjusting between the active position and the inactive position.
- the realization allows as electrical actuators a very precise control of the linear positioning of the actuators along their adjustment.
- the mechanical adjusting device is realized in this variant as an electro-mechanical adjusting device.
- the first actuator has a linearly adjustable first actuating element.
- This may comprise a cylindrical adjusting body, the end face presses when moving the first engaging member in the first link guide against a first actuating element opposite end face of the engaging member.
- the second actuator may also have a linearly adjustable second adjusting element, which has a cylindrical actuating body. Whose end face can in an analogous manner to the first actuating element when moving the second engagement element in the two te sliding guide against a second actuating element opposite end face of the second engagement element press. In the manner described above, the desired mechanical coupling of the actuator with the engagement element can be realized in a simple and thus cost-effective manner.
- the first actuator has a housing and a first actuating element which can be translationally displaced relative to the housing between the first and the second position.
- the second actuator alternatively or in addition to the first actuator, a housing and a relative to this housing between the first and the second position translationally adjustable, second actuator.

- said engagement element fixing device has a spring-loaded fixing element. This is accommodated in the first position of the engagement member in a provided on the engagement member first receptacle. In the second position of the engagement element, the fixing element is received in a second receptacle provided on the cam follower.
