c) Small stroke: when the engine rotation speed is low, the engine needs a small stroke, the motor (421) receives a rotation speed signal transmitted by the engine ECU, the crank (422) is controlled to rotate, the crank (422) drives the swing rod (41) to swing towards one side close to the valve (1) through the sliding pin (44), and the swing arm shaft (22) moves towards the valve (1) along with the swing rod (41) in the guide groove (21) on the swing arm (2);
d) Large travel: when the rotation speed of the engine is higher, the engine needs a large stroke at the moment, and the air inflow is increased; the motor (421) receives a rotating speed signal transmitted by the engine ECU, the crank (422) is controlled to rotate, the crank (422) drives the swing rod (41) to swing towards one side close to the tappet (3) through the sliding pin (44), and the swing arm shaft (22) moves towards the tappet (3) along with the swing rod (41) in the guide groove (21) on the rocker arm (2).
