Abstract

PURPOSE:To change over from a high to a low speed cam and vice versa smoothly by bearing the base end of a high speed locker arm with an oil hydraulic pivot, and lifting the pivot when the intermediate speed is attained or exceeded. CONSTITUTION:The base end of a low speed locker arm 13 is borne by a fixed pivot 14, while the base end of a high speed locker arm 17 by an oil hydraulic pivot 18. This hydraulic pivot 18 is lifted by oil pressure when the intermediate speed is attained or exceeded, and the high speed locker arm 17 is swung by a high speed cam 20. Thereby changing over from low speed cam 16 to high speed cam 20 and vice versa can be made smoothly.

(Conventional technology and its problems) In a four-stroke engine, an umbrella-shaped intake valve and an exhaust valve are attached to a cylinder head connected to the upper part of the cylinder, and the valves are opened to take in air or release exhaust air. I'm doing it. The intake valve and the exhaust valve are biased by a spring so that the opening of the intake valve and the exhaust valve are closed, and the rotation of the cam of the camshaft linked to the crankshaft causes the opening lever arm to swing. Each valve is pressed down against a spring. Therefore, the opening timing of the intake and exhaust valves and the amount of valve lift are determined by the shape of the cam on the camshaft.

There are optimal valve timings for both low and high speeds, and a single cam cannot satisfy the entire rotation range. Normally,
Based on the operating conditions of the engine, the shape of the cam is set to be a low-speed type, a high-speed type, etc. Some cams are equipped with two cams, a high-speed type and a low-speed type, and are switched depending on the rotational speed to obtain high output from low speeds to high speeds. For example, Publication No. 1Ft111i61-84106, '
1ZDnK161-58605 See Q publication. However, switching is always performed due to changes in engine rotation,
There is a problem in the smoothness of switching, and there is also a problem in durability.

A cylinder head 5 is connected above a cylinder 4 in which a piston 3 connected to a crankshaft 1 via a connecting rod 2 slides and reciprocates. The part of the cylinder head 5 facing the cylinder 4 is the combustion chamber 6.
The intake hole 7 and the air hole 8 communicate with each other, and an umbrella-shaped intake valve and an exhaust valve 10 are slidably attached to the ends thereof, respectively. The intake hole 7 and the exhaust hole 8 each have a bifurcated tip, and are of a four-enclosed type in which one combustion chamber 6 is provided with two intake valves 9 and two exhaust valves 10. The intake valve 9 side will be explained below. The valve 9 is slidably inserted into the valve stem 11 of the cylinder head 5, and is biased in the pinching direction by a spring 12. The low-speed rocker arm 13 supports the MQ on a fixed pivot 14 installed in the cylinder head 5, has a bifurcated tip, contacts the upper ends of the two valves 9, and has a camshaft 15 on the upper surface. A low speed cam 16 is arranged. High-speed rocker arm 17 [The base end is attached to the hydraulic pivot 18
The tip is supported by the horizontal shaft 19 provided on the low-speed rocker arm 13. Then, the high-speed cam 20 of the camshaft 15 is arranged on the top surface.

Hydraulic pressure from an oil pump linked to the crank @1 is sent to the hydraulic pivot 18, and when the rotation increases to a medium speed or higher and the oil pressure increases, the hydraulic pivot 18 is pushed up by the oil pressure. The base end of the high-speed rocker arm 17 is pushed up. The camshaft 15 is driven in conjunction with the crankshaft 1 by a chino or timing belt 1, and the exhaust valve 10 side is also connected to the intake valve 9.
Like the side, it is made of suzukishi.

At medium speed or lower, there is little increase in oil pressure, and the oil pressure is 18.
does not rise, and the high-speed rocker arm 17 is at a low position. Therefore, as the camshaft 15 rotates, the low speed cam 16
However, the low speed rocker arm 13 is swung and the valve 9 is pushed down against the spring 12 to listen. When the speed becomes medium or higher, the hydraulic pivot 18 pushes up the base end of the high-speed rocker arm 17 by the hydraulic pressure 4, the high-speed cam 20 swings the high-speed rocker arm 17, and the pivoted low-speed rocker arm 13, press down on valve 9 and listen. While the low speed cam 16 is working, the high speed cam 20 is idle, and when the high speed cam 20 starts working, the low speed cam 16 becomes idle. Further, the switching is smoothly performed by the hydraulic pressure applied to the hydraulic pivot 18, and the durability is good because it is only necessary to move up and down by the hydraulic pressure of the hydraulic pivot 18. By this switching, as shown in Figure 4, the valve timing at high speeds can be varied to be optimal for the rotation, compared to the valve timing at low speeds of 8, and the output is output at both high and low speeds. It is possible to increase the amount. In addition, both high and low speeds,
The valve timings Δ and B can be arbitrarily selected depending on the cam profiles of the low-speed cam 16 and the high-speed cam 20, respectively.
