Abstract

L'arbre de relevage à rouleau de moteur destiné à être utilisé dans une soupape et un dispositif de commande d'un moteur à combustion interne et construit conformément à un autre exemple de la présente invention, comprend un corps possédant une surface périphérique externe conçue pour un mouvement coulissant dans un alésage ménagé dans le moteur. L'alésage est alimenté par un passage d'huile communiquant avec celui-ci. Le corps peut définir un passage transversal. Une rainure peut être formée autour du corps et rentrée depuis la surface périphérique externe. Un canal de raccordement peut être formé dans le corps et rentré depuis la surface périphérique externe, le canal de raccordement reliant fluidiquement la rainure et le passage transversal. Un roulement à rouleaux peut être monté de manière rotative sur le corps et conçu pour un contact roulant avec un arbre à cames de moteur. L'huile reçue au niveau de la rainure depuis l'alésage s'écoule le long du canal de raccordement, dans le passage transversal et sur le roulement à rouleaux.
