Abstract: A harmonic drive including a housing component (4) and a drive element (18) which is held on the housing component, can be deformed by a wave generator (14), is in the form of a flanged bushing and has a toothing region (17) having a cylindrical basic shape and a disc section (19) which adjoins the toothing region (17). Adjoining the disc section (19) there is a bushing section (20) which is concentric to the toothing region (17), overlaps the latter in the axial direction and is held interlockingly between a cylindrical edge section (21), which is thick-walled in comparison with the bushing section (20), of the housing component (4) and an intrinsically rigid component (22) which is likewise solid in comparison with the flanged bushing (18).

The camshaft adjusting system further includes an input wheel, which is designed to introduce torque into the camshafts, a hydraulic camshaft adjuster, which acts on the outer camshaft to adjust the phase angle of the outer camshaft relative to the input wheel, and an electric camshaft adjuster, which acts on the inner camshaft to adjust the phase angle of the inner camshaft relative to the input wheel. The electric camshaft adjuster engages in the hydraulic camshaft adjuster at least partially in an axial direction.

Abstract: A method for operating a camshaft adjuster, which includes an adjusting transmission with an input shaft, an output shaft connected in a non-rotatable manner with a camshaft, and an adjusting shaft, whereby the adjusting shaft is driven by an actuator, characterized by the fact that the actuator drives the adjusting shaft by overcoming a torque that is dependent on its angular position.

Abstract: A camshaft adjusting device having improved lubricant management including adjusting gearing for adjusting the angular position of a camshaft is proposed, the adjusting gearing having an input shaft, which can be coupled to a crankshaft, an output shaft, which can be coupled to the camshaft and an adjusting shaft, which can be coupled to an actuator. The adjusting gearing defines a rotational axis and the gearing forms a gearing interior, in which the input shaft, the output shaft and the adjusting shaft are operatively interconnected. The camshaft adjusting device has a lubricant supply for supplying the gearing interior with a lubricant and the lubricant supply is designed to form a lubricant sump in the gearing interior, the sump being radially outwards situated relative to the rotational axis.
