  • Actuation apparatus for variable valve drive
    Patent number: 10465572
    Abstract: An actuator for actuating valve-lift modes of a valve train assembly of an internal combustion engine. The valve train assembly is capable of being switched between a first valve-lift mode and a second valve-lift mode. The actuator includes a first body and a second body. The second body is mounted for reciprocal movement with respect to the first body between a first position to cause the first valve-lift mode and a second position to cause the second valve-lift mode. The actuator includes a third body supported by the second body, the third body for moving a first component of the valve train assembly to cause the second valve-lift mode. The third body is moveable relative to the second body. The actuator includes a first biaser for biasing the third body away from the second body towards the first component of the valve train assembly.
