20100307436 | VARIABLE VALVE LIFT APPARATUS THAT IS EQUIPPED WITH SWING ARM - A variable valve lift device equipped with a swing arm variably lifting an exhaust valve or an intake valve may include an outer body in which a mounting groove is formed in the middle portion thereof, an inner body mounted inside the mounting groove of the outer body and with a rear end thereof pivotally-connected to the outer body in the outer body, and a latching portion formed in the outer body and the inner body and fixing or releasing a front end portion of the inner body to the outer body. | 12-09-2010 |
20100307438 | VARIABLE TAPPET - A variable tappet may include an outer tappet body, an inner tappet body that is slidably disposed within the outer tappet body and selectively connected with the outer tappet body, a lost motion elastic member that is disposed within the outer tappet body and elastically supports the outer tappet body, and a connecting unit that is slidably disposed within the inner tappet body and selectively connects the outer tappet body and the inner tappet body. | 12-09-2010 |
20110132305 | VARIABLE TAPPET - The present invention relates to a variable tappet, and the variable tappet may include an inner tappet body of which a latching member connecting hole is formed thereto, a protrude portion formed to the latching member connecting hole, an outer tappet body which is disposed around the inner tappet body and slidable to the inner tappet body and a latching member which is disposed to the outer tappet body and selectively connected to the latching member connecting hole. | 06-09-2011 |
20110271922 | VARIABLE VALVE LIFT APPARATUS - A variable valve lift apparatus may include an outer tappet body of which a latching portion connecting hole and an outer tappet body guide hole may be formed therewithin, an inner tappet body of which an inner tappet body guide hole may be formed therewithin and slidably disposed within the outer tappet body, a latching portion which may be disposed within the inner tappet body guide hole and selectively coupled to the latching portion connecting hole, a latching portion support pin which guides the latching portion along a longitudinal direction of the inner tappet body guide hole and may be connected to the inner tappet body, a hydraulic pressure chamber, and a plunger which may be slidably disposed in the outer tappet body guide hole and selectively inserts the latching portion into the latching portion connecting hole according to the hydraulic pressure supplied from the hydraulic pressure chamber. | 11-10-2011 |
20120060783 | VARIABLE VALVE LIFT APPARATUS - A variable valve lift apparatus of an engine may include an inner tappet, an outer tappet centrally receiving the inner tappet, a latching unit inserted in the inner tappet and operated by a hydraulic pressure so as to selectively engage the inner and outer tappets by operation, and a protruding member that is coupled to an upper surface edge of the outer tappet so as to protrude outward from an exterior circumference of the outer tappet, and is vertically slidable along a sliding groove of a cylinder head. | 03-15-2012 |
20120097878 | VARIABLE VALVE LIFT APPARATUS - A variable valve lift apparatus includes a high cam and a low cam fixed side by side to a camshaft, an outer body pressed by the rotation of the high cam, and has a crossbar formed at the bottom of the front end, an inner body, of which the front end protrudes further than the outer body, the lower front end is provided with a valve member, the upper rear end is hinged to a lost motion hinge shaft coaxially with the rear end of the outer body, and the lower rear end is pivotally connected to a hinge member, and a latching portion inserted into the inner body and selectively connected to the crossbar of the outer body to move the inner body dependent on movement of the front end of the outer body, wherein the lost motion hinge shaft is disposed in the same direction as a hinge point between the inner body and the hinge member with respect to the camshaft. Dynamic characteristics can be obtained by reducing the moment of inertia of the variable valve lift apparatus, and the dynamic characteristics can be further improved by inserting the latching portion into the inner body so as to be closer to the camshaft. | 04-26-2012 |
20120118251 | HYDRAULIC VARIABLE VALVE LIFT APPARATUS - A hydraulic pressure variable valve lift apparatus may include a housing that a piston chamber that one side thereof is opened is formed, a valve operating piston that is slidably disposed in the piston chamber and one end thereof is connected to a valve for opening/closing a port, and an EHV hydraulic pump that is configured to supply the piston chamber with oil, wherein a first oil passage is formed between the EHV hydraulic pump and the piston chamber on as to supply a side surface of the piston chamber with oil, and an orifice hole is formed from a piston side surface of the valve operating piston to a piston upper end surface. Accordingly, the valve lift amount can be varied according to the operating condition of the engine, a hydraulic pressure variable valve lift apparatus reduces an impact at a moment when the valve is closed by having a valve lift formed a ramp profile and does not require accurate process of multi orifice and thereby decreases a production cost. | 05-17-2012 |
20120291889 | OIL CONTROL VALVE AND VARIABLE VALVE LIFT SYSTEM PROVIDED WITH THE SAME - An oil control valve includes a housing having a control port and a drain port, a first seat with a first penetration hole forming a first chamber, a second seat with a second penetration hole forming a second chamber communicated with the control port, the second seat with the housing forming a third chamber communicating with the drain port, a first check valve within the first chamber selectively closing the first penetration hole, a second check valve within the third chamber selectively closing the second penetration hole, and a third penetration hole, a control portion selectively opening the first check valve and simultaneously closing the second check valve or selectively closing the first check valve and simultaneously opening the second check valve and an orifice connecting the first chamber with the second chamber. | 11-22-2012 |
