Problems solved by technology

[0010] In order to avoid the above-mentioned interference, the mechanism used for the retraction control of the above-mentioned conventional valve drive system, that is, the mechanism that stops the opening and closing of the valve and the mechanism that switches to the low-lift cam, is used in the method of rotating the camshaft by the motor. In the variable valve train, the device configuration is complicated in vain

Embodiment approach 1

[0062] [Configuration of the variable valve train]

[0063] Below, refer to Figure 1 to Figure 3 The basic configuration of the variable valve train 10 according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention will be described.

[0064] figure 1 It is a perspective view showing the configuration of the variable valve train 10 according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention. figure 1 The illustrated variable valve train 10 is a device for driving valves of an internal combustion engine. Here, the internal combustion engine is configured as an inline four-cylinder engine. exist figure 1 Among them, #1 to #4 represent the first cylinder to the fourth cylinder of the internal combustion engine, respectively. The explosion sequence of this internal combustion engine is the same as that of a general internal combustion engine, and is #1→#3→#4→#2. In the present embodiment, the variable valve train 10 functions as a device that drives the intake valves of the cylinders. figure 1...

Embodiment approach 2

[0102] Next, refer to Figure 8 Embodiment 2 of the present invention will be described.

[0103] The system of this embodiment can use Figure 1 to Figure 3 and Figure 5 Shown hardware configuration and makes ECU40 execute the following Figure 8 The degrees shown are achieved.

[0104] [Characteristics of Embodiment 2]

[0105] In the case where the abnormal state generated by the variable valve actuator 10 is a state in which the power supply to the motor is completely cut off, by adopting the above-mentioned Figure 5 In the configuration shown, the cam 18 and the like are rotated by the reaction force of the valve spring, thereby reliably avoiding interference between the valve 12 and the piston. However, depending on the abnormal state, instead of the state where the power supply is completely off, the state where the force of the motor-driven cam 18 remains may be used. In this state, the cam 18 pushes the valve 12, the driving torque of the motor to the camshaft...

Embodiment approach 3

[0113] Next, refer to Figure 9 to Figure 11 Embodiment 3 of the present invention will be described.

[0114] Figure 9 It is a diagram for explaining the configuration of the torque reduction mechanism 52 included in the variable valve train 50 according to Embodiment 3 of the present invention. More specifically, Figure 9 (A) is a view showing the variable valve train 50 viewed from the axial direction of the camshaft 22, Figure 9 (B) means from Figure 9 (A) is a view of the variable valve train 50 viewed from the direction of the arrow A. exist Figure 9 , against the above figure 1 The same reference numerals are assigned to the same elements as the shown constituent elements, and descriptions thereof are omitted or simplified.

[0115] The variable valve gear 50 of the present embodiment has, in addition to Figure 9 Except for the torque reduction mechanism 52 shown, it has the same configuration as the variable valve train 10 of the first embodiment describe...

Abstract

A cam shaft (22) etc. having a cam (18) etc. for pushing and moving a valve (12), which is urged in a valve closing direction by a valve spring (17), is driven by a motor (30) etc. A valve lifter (16), in contact with the cam (18) etc., is provided between the valve (12) and the cam (18) etc. The valve lifter (16) has a top surface (16a) formed such that the line tangential to the top surface and a nose top (18c) of the cam (18) inclines relative to the direction perpendicular to the axis of a valve stem (14).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a variable valve drive for driving valves of an internal combustion engine. Background technique [0002] Conventionally, for example, Patent Document 1 discloses an internal combustion engine having a valve drive system in which valves are driven by opening and closing with a motor. In this conventional valve driving system, when an abnormality occurs in the synchronous control of the rotation of the camshaft and the crankshaft, the opening and closing of the valve is stopped by using the idle mechanism or switched to a low-lift valve for driving the valve with a small lift amount. The distance cam can be used for evasive driving. [0003] The applicant is aware of the documents described below including the above documents as matters related to the present invention.
