Embodiment Construction
[0026] figure 1 and figure 2 A valve train for an exhaust valve 70 of an internal combustion engine with a camshaft 10 according to an exemplary embodiment of the invention is shown. Camshaft 10 includes cams 11 arranged to actuate exhaust valves 70 . The camshaft 10 is rotatable about its axis. For this purpose, the camshaft 10 is supported on the cylinder head via bearings 8a, 8b, thus on both sides via the bearings 8a, 8b. Hence, it is overhead camshaft. The camshaft 10 also includes a centrifugal element 21 , which is described in more detail below with respect to FIGS. 3 and 4 .
[0027] The mounts 8a, 8b on both sides allow an advantageous power transmission between the cam and the valve, since undesired bending vibrations of the camshaft are avoided. Mountings on both sides also allow flexible control of the valve train; according to a preferred aspect, the transmission gear or chain drive sprocket connected to the crankshaft of the internal combustion engine is ...
