Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an adjusting device for a camshaft, according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
  • the design of the adjusting device allows any phase angle between the drive element and the driven element.
  • the brake is designed as bermmungsios working, electromagnetic brake; Preferably, a hysteresis brake is used whose braking torque is independent of the speed.
  • the present invention is therefore based on the object to provide a Versfeilvortechnische for a camshaft, which is inexpensive to produce. This object is solved by the features of patent claim 1. Further embodiments and advantages of the invention will become apparent from the dependent claims,
  • an adjusting device for a camshaft comprising a braking system and an output side connected to the camshaft and the crankshaft drive side ⁇ berlagerungsgetriebe, wherein the superposition gear for adjusting the camshaft dissipates a part of the drive-side energy in the brake system, wherein the brake system is designed as a frictional braking system in which the required braking force is generated via a friction lining in permanent slip.
  • the adjusting device according to the invention has an additional mechanical lock.
  • a phase adjustment between the drive-side sprocket or pulley and the output-side cam lobe can be made or a phase position once set can be held in position.
  • the reibschl ⁇ ssige brake system is designed as an electromagnetically actuated friction system.
  • the superposition gear can be designed as a planetary gear or ais gear with two Clarfimratorn and a two-stage planet, with any form of superposition gear is suitable for use in the system according to the invention.
  • the reibschl ⁇ ssige brake system with additional mechanical locking of the adjustment device comprises an electrically actuated shift coil 1, which has a friction surface 8, a magnetic Reibbeiag 2 with a locking element 6 and a spring 3, wherein the locking element 6 with a drive-side element 5 of Matteriage- gearing 7 cooperates.
  • the friction lining 2 is axially movable but rotationally fixed to a spur gear 4 of the superimposed ngsgetriebes 7.
  • the superposition gear 7 is designed as a gearbox with two sunstones 4, 9 and a two-stage planet 10.
  • the camshaft is rotatably connected to the second spur gear 9 of the superposition gear 7; the drive is connected to the planet carrier.
  • the superposition gear 7 as Pianetengetriebe it is advantageous to arrange the friction lining 2 on the sun teeth;
  • the camshaft is connected to the ring gear.
  • the required phase angle can be adjusted and maintained via a planetary gear set or other ⁇ berlagerungsge ⁇ be.
  • the friction lining 2 is oil-filled; This can be done either from the outside ⁇ Qlnebel, etc.) or from the middle of the camshaft.
  • the friction lining 2 can be used as a paper covering with special embossing, comprising e.g. Radial grooves with waffle pattern, or be designed as a carbon coating. In the version as a carbon lining this can have a covering thickness of about 0.05 mm.
  • a Carbonbeiag has the advantage that the wear is very low.
  • the braking torque can also be generated via a mixed friction.
