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.
- 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 with the axial displacement of the cam follower from the first to the second position with at least one 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 at least one second link guide present on the camshaft.
- a third cam is provided in the valve train in addition to the first and the second cam, so that the cam follower is adjustable between a first, a second and a third position.
- two first slide guides and two second slide guides are ments are present. This allows an optional coupling or drive connection of the cam follower with the first, the second or the third cam.
- the two first slide guides may be substantially parallel and spaced apart on a first slide body.
- the two second slide guides may be arranged substantially parallel and spaced apart on a second slide body.
- the three cams are further arranged axially between the two link bodies. This variant requires very little axial space.
- one of the two first slotted guides for adjusting the cam follower is formed from the first to the second position.
- the other first slide guide is designed for adjusting the cam follower from the second position to the third position.
- one of the two second slotted guides for adjusting the cam follower is formed from the third back to the second position.
- the other second link guide is designed for adjusting the cam follower from the second position back to the first position.
- the two slotted guides are mounted relative to the camshaft axially adjustable on this and connected by means of a coupling element with the cam follower.
- Said coupling is realized in such a way that with an axial movement of the slide guides for adjusting between the first and second position an identical axial Movement of the cam follower goes along.
- the two slide guides are formed on at least sleeve.
- Said sleeve is axially slidably pushed onto the camshaft.
- Particularly preferred because space-saving, is a variant with a common sleeve for both slide guides.
- the two slide guides preferably the at least one sleeve, part of a bearing elements comprehensive storage facility.
- the rotatable mounting of the camshaft takes place, for example on a housing part of the valve train or on another component of the valve train.
- This variant is associated with a reduced space requirement and with a reduced dead weight of the entire valve train.
- the coupling element engages in a recess provided on the sleeve.
- the recess which is preferably realized as a circumferential groove formed on the outer circumference of the sleeve, is technically particularly simple and thus cost-effective to implement.
- the coupling element may be formed bolt-like or pin-like and protrude radially outward from the cam follower.
- 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 engages in the first slotted guide, and a second position is adjustable, in which it does not engage in 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 makes it possible to dispense with pneumatic and / or hydraulic adjusting means that are technically feasible only 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.

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. In other words, the cam follower is moved toward the two actuators by the stroke movement caused by the first or second cam. 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".

- the valve drive 1 of FIG. 3 differs from that of FIGS. 1 and 2 in that the first and second slide guides 9a, 9b are formed axially on the same side in a common slide body 26 relative to the two cams 4a, 4b. It is clear that this is accompanied by a change in the axial arrangement of the two engagement elements 8a, 8b and the two slotted guides 9a, 9b and the two actuators 10a, 10b.
- the variant of Figure 3 requires in the axial direction A very little space.
- FIG. 4 shows a further variant of the example of FIGS. 1 and 2, wherein in FIG. 4 the camshaft 2 and the cam follower 3 are shown for the sake of clarity only in an axial partial section.
- the two slide guides 9a, 9b are mounted axially adjustably relative to the camshaft 2 and are connected to the cam follower 3 by means of a coupling element 41. Said coupling is realized in such a way that with a movement of the slide guides 9a, 9b along the axial direction A for adjusting the cam follower 3 between the first and second position, an axial movement of the cam follower 3 is accompanied.
- the coupling element 41 is bolt-like or pin-shaped as shown in Figure 4 and is radially outwardly from the cam follower 3 from.
- the two slotted guides 9a, 9b are designed as outer circumferential grooves 45a, 45b on a common sleeve 42.
- Said sleeve 42 is axially displaceable (see arrow 20 in Figure 4) pushed onto the camshaft 2.
- the coupling element 41 for mechanical axial coupling can engage in a recess 43 provided on the sleeve 42, which, as indicated in FIG. 4, preferably acts as a recess on the outer circumference of the sleeve 42. formed circumferential groove 44 is realized.
- FIG. 5 shows a schematic representation of a further variant of the example of Figures 1 and 2, in which on the camshaft 2 not only two cams, but three cams 4a, 4b, 4c are arranged rotationally fixed.
- the cam follower 3 is thus adjustable between a first, a second and a third position.
- the cam follower roller 6 cooperates with the third cam 4c.
- Figure 5 shows the cam follower roller 6 in engagement with the second cam 4b.
- not only a single first slide guide 9a and a single second slide guide 9b are provided in the valve drive 1, but in each case two first slide guides 9a and two second slide guides 9b.
- the two first slotted guides 9a are arranged substantially parallel and at a distance from one another on a first slotted body 40a.
- the two second slide guides 9b are arranged substantially parallel and spaced apart on a second slide body 40b.
- the three cams 4a, 4b, 4c are arranged axially between the two slotted bodies 40a, 40b on the camshaft 2.
- One of the two first slide guides (9a) serves to adjust the cam sequence 3 from its first position to its second position.
- the other first slide guide 9a is used to the cam follower 3 from the second position to its third Position to adjust.
- one of the two second slide guides 9b serves for adjusting the cam follower 3 from the third position back to the second position.
- the other second slide guide 9b is used accordingly for adjusting the cam follower 3 from the second position to the first position.
- FIGS. 6 and 7 illustrate an advantageous development of the valve train 1, when it is used to control valves.
- the example of FIGS. 6 and 7 explained below can be combined with the examples explained above with reference to FIGS. 1 to 5.
- FIG. 6 shows a control lever 30 mounted rotatably about a rotation axis S on a housing (not shown) in a side view along the axial direction A.
- the control lever 30 is adjusted by a movement of the cam follower 3 of the valve drive 1.
- On the lever 30 are fixed two valve body 31 a, 31 b attached.
- the two valve body 31 a, 31 b close depending on the current set position of the lever 30 a respective assigned valve opening 32 a, 32 b or release them.
- the two valve bodies 31 a, 31 b can be adjusted by means of the adjusting lever 30 between a closed position and an open position.
- FIG. 6 shows the two valve bodies 31 a, 31 b in their open position.
- FIG. 7 shows the valve drive 1 of FIG.
- the adjusting lever 30 is designed to be adjustable along the axial direction A and can be adjusted together with the cam follower 3 between a first and a second position.
- the adjusting lever 30 has a first lever arm 33a and a second lever arm 33b. At the first lever arm 33 a of the first valve body 31 a arranged on the second lever arm 33 b, the second valve body 31 b.
- the two valve body 31 a, 31 b serve in a known manner for closing or releasing the two valve openings 32 a, 32 b.
- the adjustment of the valve body 31 a, 31 b between its open and its closed position is carried out using the associated with the cam follower 3 adjusting lever 30, in accordance with the principle explained in Figure 6.
- the first valve body 31 a - is formed by suitable dimensioning such that it closes the valve opening 32 a in its closed position regardless of whether the cam follower 3 and thus the lever 30 in the first or second position.
- the respective other valve body - in the example of FIG. 7, the second valve body 31 b - is designed such that it only closes the valve opening 32 a in its closed position when the cam follower 3 and thus the control lever 30 in the first or, alternatively, located in the second position.
- valve body 31 a has a greater extent or extension along the axial direction A than the second valve body 31 b.
