Abstract: A sliding cam system for an internal combustion engine is disclosed. The sliding cam system includes a carrier shaft and an axially adjustable cam sleeve arranged on the carrier shaft. The cam sleeve is axially adjustable relative to the carrier shaft between a first axial position and a second axial position, and axially fixable in the respective axial position by a detent device. The detent device includes a first receiving groove assigned to the first axial position and a second receiving groove assigned to the second axial position. The detent device further includes a preload element disposed on the cam sleeve. The preload element preloads a detent element arranged between the carrier shaft and the cam sleeve towards the carrier shaft. The detent element is received in the first receiving groove in the first axial position and the second receiving groove in the second axial position.

Abstract: The present disclosure concerns a slotted guide of a valve train of an internal combustion engine. The slotted guide includes two guide tracks, which cross one another in a crossing region, for guiding a switching pin of a cam follower of the valve train. The two guide tracks have an on-track region, a crossing region, and an off-track region. At least one radial projection, structured and arranged to protrude beyond the slotted guide in a radial direction, is provided in or downstream from the off-track region of at least one guide track.

Abstract: A valve train may include a camshaft, a cam sleeve adjustable in an axial direction between first and second positions and non-rotatably arranged on the camshaft, a first cam and at least one second cam, a pin and at least one cam follower mounted thereon, a guide contour arranged on the cam sleeve and having first and second guide tracks, and a control pin optionally engaging in the first or second guide track to adjust the cam sleeve between the first and second positions. The at least one cam follower in the first and second positions may interact respectively with the first and second cams. On the camshaft or an internal surface of the cam sleeve, first and second snap-in recesses and a third snap-in recess therebetween may be arranged. A snap-in device having a snap-in element preloaded into the snap-in recesses may be provided, the snap-in recess fixing the cam sleeve in the first or second position. The first and second guide tracks may intersect in an intersection region.

Abstract: A valve train of an internal combustion engine may include a camshaft, first and second cams, a rocker arm assembly having a displacement bolt, which may be adjustable between at least first and second positions in the axial direction and on which at least one cam roller, may be mounted in an axially fixed and rotatable manner, wherein the displacement bolt may be mounted in associated bearing lugs of the rocker arm assembly, a guide contour arranged on the camshaft and having first and second guide tracks, a switching pin, which may be arranged in the displacement bolt and which may optionally engage with the first or second guide track to adjust the displacement bolt between the first and second positions. In the first and second positions, the cam roller may cooperate with the first and second cams, respectively. First and second catch recesses may be provided on the displacement bolt.

Abstract: A valve control for an internal combustion engine may include a tilt lever, a cam shaft, two cam groups arranged on the cam shaft, a roller bolt arranged on the tilt lever, and an adjusting assembly including a switching pin that engages through the roller bolt. The roller bolt may include two rotatable rollers. The switching pin may be adjustable into a switching position and into a home position. The switching pin may cooperate with a slotted guide of the cam shaft when in the switching position and may have no contact with the slotted guide when in the home position. When the switching pin is in the switching position, the two rollers may be axially adjustable via the adjusting assembly. The switching pin may be axially movable in the roller bolt and the two rollers may be axially movable on the roller bolt into one of two roller positions.

Abstract: A method for producing a roller bearing may include threading a cam roller onto a bearing sleeve until the cam roller abuts a first axial flange of the bearing sleeve and inserting a counter holder into the bearing sleeve until the first axial flange of the bearing sleeve abuts a stop of the counter holder. The method may also include heating the bearing sleeve and forming an opposite second axial flange via inserting a forming punch into the bearing sleeve after heating the bearing sleeve. The second axial flange may be formed such that the cam roller is held in the bearing sleeve with radial play and axial play after the bearing sleeve cools down. The method may further include removing the forming punch and the counter holder from within the bearing sleeve.
