Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Kupplungseinrichtung für Nockenwellen in Brennkraftmaschinen, bei der die Nockenwelle (1) relativ zu einem von der Kurbelwelle der Brennkraftmaschine angetriebenen Antriebsrad (2) über einen begrenzten Drehwinkelbereich in beiden Drehrichtungen frei zum Antriebsrad (2) durch Drehungleichförmigkeiten verstellbar und über öldruckgeschaltete Rastbolzen (4,5) fixierbar ist.
Es wird die Aufgabe gelöst die Rastbolzen (4,5) und deren Betätigung konstruktiv zu vereinfachen und einen sicheren Eingriff der Rastelemente zu gewährleisten.
The invention relates to a clutch device for camshafts in internal combustion engines, in which the camshaft (1) is freely adjustable relative to a drive wheel (2) driven by the crankshaft of the internal combustion engine over a limited range of rotation angles in both directions of rotation to the drive wheel (2) by means of rotational nonuniformities and via oil pressure switched locking bolts (4,5) can be fixed.
The problem is solved to simplify the design of the locking bolts (4, 5) and their actuation and to ensure that the locking elements engage securely.

Erfindungsgemäß wird dies dadurch erreicht, daß in das Antriebsrad (2) mindestens zwei schiebbar geführte federbelastete Rastbolzen (4,5) wechselweise in korrespondierende Ausnehmungen (7,8) der Nockenwelle (1) eingreifen. Diese Ausnehmungen (7,8) sind mit Druckmittelkanälen (13,14) verbunden, die über einen Schaltkolben (12) wechselweise mit einer Druckmittelquelle in Verbindung bringbar sind, um den jeweiligen Rastbolzen (4,5) auszukoppeln.

Figure 00000001
According to the invention, this is achieved in that at least two slidably guided spring-loaded locking pins (4, 5) alternately engage in corresponding recesses (7, 8) of the camshaft (1) in the drive wheel (2). These recesses (7, 8) are connected to pressure medium channels (13, 14), which can alternately be connected to a pressure medium source via a switching piston (12) in order to decouple the respective locking bolts (4, 5).
