Valve clearance compensation element for automatic mechanical adjustment of gas shuttle valve in combustion engine, has conical clamping piston comprising annular collar that grips side of clamp body, where side faces position bolt

摘要

The element (1) has a position bolt (3) supported in a casing (2) against force of a spring (5) that is arranged at a component of a combustion engine. A transfer element is actively connected with a supporting head of the bolt and supported on a spring-loaded gas-exchange valve and a cam of a camshaft. The bolt is connected with a conical clamping piston (4). A clamp body (8) is axially guided in the casing and parallel to the element. The piston comprises an expandable cone and an annular collar (7). The collar grips a side of the clamp body, where the side faces the bolt.
