Abstract: A cylinder head cover and a method for producing a cylinder head cover are disclosed. The method for producing a cylinder head cover may include: providing at least two metallic bearing bridges including a respective through-opening for mounting at least one camshaft and aligning the respective through-opening of the at least two bearing bridges axially relative to one another; connecting at least one metallic connection element to the at least two bearing bridges in a fixed manner so that the at least two bearing bridges are fixed and aligned relative to one another; and at least partially overmoulding the at least two bearing bridges and the at least one connection element with a plastic material.

Abstract: A method and device for assembling a composite housing fitted with a shaft and at least one associated mounted element are disclosed. The method may include the steps of: arranging the housing in a predetermined position with respect to an actuator; arranging the shaft in a predetermined position with respect to the housing and the actuator; selecting a mounting element to be mounted on the shaft; conveying the mounting element into a predetermined position within the housing; pushing the shaft via the actuator so that the shaft passes successively through an opening of the housing and an opening of the mounting element; and positioning the mounting element in a position adjacent to a heat source for a predetermined duration after the step of selecting the mounting element and prior to conveying the mounting element.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing a valve may include welding two components to each other via a combined induction/friction welding process. One of the two components may be a valve head and the other of the two components may be a valve stem.
