20110220052 | INTERNAL COMBUSTION PISTON ENGINE WITH AN ADJUSTABLE INFLATING ELEMENT - An internal combustion piston engine based on a four-stroke process, having a crankcase in which at least one cylinder/piston assembly is arranged, the piston being guided by a connecting rod connected to a crankshaft. At least one cylinder head ( | 09-15-2011 |
20110220062 | INTERNAL COMBUSTION PISTON ENGINE WITH A COMPRESSION RELIEF ENGINE BRAKE - An internal combustion piston engine based on a four-stroke process, including a crankcase in which at least one cylinder/piston assembly is arranged, the piston being guided by a connecting rod connected to a crankshaft. At least one cylinder head closes the cylinder, each of whose intake and exhaust channels are controlled by at least one intake valve and one exhaust valve ( | 09-15-2011 |
20120186549 | OSCILLATING LEVER IN A VALVE TRAIN OF AN INTERNAL-COMBUSTION ENGINE - A rocker or swing arm in a valve train of an internal combustion engine has a bearing bore pivotally supporting the arm on a hollow axis located in a fixed position in the engine. The valve train has a camshaft with cams for causing the arm to pivot. A hydraulic valve lash compensation element that acts on the tappet of a gas exchange valve connects to the arm. A supply line is arranged in the arm, and a radial opening connecting the hollow interior space of the axis to the supply line is arranged in the axis in the region of the arm to deliver hydraulic means through the hollow axis to the lash compensation element. According to the invention, a A labyrinth seal (35) surrounding the hollow axis without contact is arranged on the arm at each axial end of the bearing bore. The bearing space of the arm is laterally sealed by this means. | 07-26-2012 |
20130000573 | HYDRAULIC VALVE PLAY COMPENSATING ELEMENT FOR RECIPROCATING-PISTON INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINES - A reciprocating-piston internal combustion engine which operates on the four-stroke cycle, having a crankcase and having at least one cylinder which is arranged in said crankcase and in which a piston is guided by a crankshaft, having at least one cylinder head which closes off the cylinder and the intake and exhaust channels which are controlled by at least in each case one intake and exhaust valve loaded by a valve spring, which intake and exhaust valves can be actuated by transmission elements driven by a camshaft, and having a hydraulic valve play compensating element ( | 01-03-2013 |
20130220254 | ROCKER ARM - Rocker arm for actuating at least one gas exchange valve of an internal combustion engine having an elongated lever body ( | 08-29-2013 |
20130263694 | CAM - According to the invention this object is attained by a rocker arm for actuating at least one gas exchange valve of an internal combustion engine having an elongated lever body with a floor and with side walls angled away therefrom, wherein a first end section of the lever body has a cup formed in the floor for a support element, and in that a section near the center is provided with a cam engagement surface and in that a second end section of the lever body has a bottom contact surface for a valve stem end of the gas exchange valve, wherein a crossbar extends between the section near the center and the second end section, and wherein the bottom contact surface for the valve stem end has a first stamping toward the top side of the rocker arm for a direct fine enclosure of the valve stem end, and wherein the crossbar has a second stamping whose shape is matched to the valve stem end. | 10-10-2013 |
20130263695 | CAM FOLLOWER - A lever-type cam follower for a valve train of an internal combustion engine, the cam follower having two side walls which are connected to each other through a crossbar on whose underside, on one end, a support for a gas exchange valve is disposed, the crossbar having a recess through which a roller extends, the roller is supported via a bearing on a pin seated in the side walls, wherein the roller is so narrow that outer front ends of the roller are clearly spaced from and out of contact with longitudinal surfaces of the recess, one guide extension projects from each of the longitudinal surfaces towards a central longitudinal plane of the cam follower, and the roller is guided on inner sides of the at least one guide extension. | 10-10-2013 |
20130319358 | VALVE DRIVE WITH ADDITIONAL LIFT IN THE CAM BASE CIRCLE - A valve drive of an internal combustion engine, having a finger lever which acts at one end on a gas exchange valve and which is seated at the other end on a head of a housing of a support element, which housing runs in an axially movable manner in a reception bore of a cylinder head, the finger lever is acted on by a cam from the base circle from which there projects in a fixed manner an additional cam piece for generating an additional lift of the gas exchange valve, a bore extends from a bottom of the housing in the direction of the head, in the lower portion of which bore there runs a pressure piston which is axially movable relative to the housing and via the lower face of which the support element is mounted on a base of the reception bore of the cylinder head, a high-pressure chamber for hydraulic medium is formed between an upper face of the pressure piston and a ring part situated above said upper face and which is fixed with respect to the housing, and to generate the additional lift, the high-pressure chamber is flooded with hydraulic medium such that the housing is deployed relative to the pressure piston, supported on the hydraulic medium column accumulated in the high-pressure chamber, and to deactivate the additional stoke, the hydraulic medium in the high-pressure chamber is discharged such that the housing is retracted. | 12-05-2013 |
