Abstract: A device for an internal combustion engine includes a cell wheel and a blade wheel, which is mounted in the cell wheel so as to be relatively moveable and is actuated hydraulically by oil and via pressure chambers. The oil flows through axial lines into the pressure chambers, which are designed, on the one hand, between a shaft of an axial fastening screw, inserted from one face side of the camshaft, and a control sleeve, which envelops the shaft and rests in at least one receiving borehole, and is designed, on the other hand, between the control sleeve and a borehole, which is arranged coaxially to the latter and belongs to a hub. For an optimal design of the lines by the control sleeve and a simple assembly of the control sleeve, the control sleeve and the fastening screw, exhibiting the shaft, are inserted starting from the same face side, which control sleeve rests in corresponding receiving boreholes of the hub.

Abstract: An arrangement for relative angle of rotation adjustment of a camshaft of an internal-combustion engine has an interior part non-rotatably connected with the camshaft and having at least approximately radially extending webs or blades. A driven cell wheel has several cells distributed along the circumference and bounded by webs. The cells are divided by the webs or blades into pressure spaces. Sealing bodies are arranged in recesses provided on faces of the webs or blades. For sealing off the pressure spaces by a hydraulic action, the sealing bodies are pressed against an interior wall of the cell wheel. The sealing bodies are constructed as rollers which, provided with an installation play, are received in the recesses. During operation of the adjusting unit, the rollers, for sealing purposes, form line contacts with the interior wall of the cell wheel and with the lateral walls of the recesses.

Abstract: An internal combustion engine including a cylinder head having gas-exchange valves, at least one camshaft supported on the cylinder head, which camshaft is driven by a crankshaft to actuate corresponding gas-exchange vales on the cylinder head, and a camshaft adjuster arranged on the camshaft. The adjuster has a hydraulic pressure chamber and is configured to use hydraulic pressure to rotate position of the camshaft relative to the crankshaft to change control times of the gas-exchange valves. A feed device for hydraulic pressure is provided on the camshaft adjuster and is configured as a component separate from the cylinder head. The feed device has a ring for each camshaft, each ring having two grooves, each of the grooves being connected via associated hydraulic pressure channels in the feed device to a hydraulic pressure valve. Each ring is arranged to surround a section of the camshaft.

Abstract: A camshaft includes a device for hydraulic adjustment of a relative rotating position of the camshaft for the purpose of influencing valve timing. The device has a drive wheel, a cell wheel, and an impeller. The impeller is disposed by way of vanes within cells of the cell wheel and can carry out relative motion. A locking arrangement, which operates in the starting phase of the internal-combustion engine, is provided between the cell wheel and the impeller. The locking arrangement is formed by an axially spring-loaded, hydraulically operated piston housed in one of the vanes of the impeller and by a corresponding receiving device for the piston provided in a constructional unit consisting of the drive wheel and the cell wheel. The piston, which projects by way of a locking section into the receiving device and is guided in the vane, cooperates with an operating element for optimizing the locking arrangement.

Abstract: A device for changing the angle of rotation of a camshaft of an internal combustion engine relative to a driving wheel. The device includes an inner part, which is provided with bridges or wings, and is disposed rotationally movable in a cell wheel. The driven cell wheel has several bridges, which are distributed over the periphery and divided by bridges or wings of the inner part into in each case two pressure spaces. The change in the angular position is caused by applying pressure on or relieving pressure from the two pressure spaces. As an end position is approached, the adjusting movement is damped hydraulically by integrated damping means. These damping means are formed by the interaction of the mutually approaching bridges of the inner part and of the cell wheel.

Abstract: A hydraulic system for a vehicle including a distributor, or switch, valve for actuating at least two operational areas and supplying the two areas with sufficient amounts of hydraulic medium is provided. The distributor, or switch, valve preferably comprises a flow regulator valve and a solenoid valve, which function so that the supply of hydraulic medium to the steering system always has priority, ensuring that the vehicle is steerable in any situation. When the steering system is operational, the supply of hydraulic medium to other operational areas, such as the clutch and transmission systems, is completely blocked by operation of the switch valve. If, however, the clutch and transmission systems should require hydraulic medium during operation of the steering system, the switch valve allows a small portion of hydraulic medium to be supplied to the clutch and transmission as well.

Abstract: The system according to the invention for the relative rotating position change of a shaft with respect to a driving wheel has an adjusting device with two pressure spaces which act against one another and which can be acted upon by a pressure medium pump. In order to achieve a uniform controlled adjusting operation and a secure position fixing, the pressure space connected with the pressure medium pump is acted upon by pressure at the start of the adjusting movement before the opposite pressure space connected with the pressure medium tank is relieved.

Abstract: A device for changing the rotational position of a shaft relative to a drive wheel has an adjusting device with two pressure chambers that act against one another. The chambers are pressurized by a pressure medium pump. The adjusting device includes an inner part with ribs that divides the chambers formed by the ribs of a compartmented wheel into corresponding pressure chambers. A plurality of depressions extending axially are machined into the circumferential surfaces of the compartmented wheel that faces the ribs of the inner part, which depressions serve to collect dirt particles carried by the pressure medium into the pressure chambers.
