Valve clearance compensating element for internal-combustion engine, has transmission element supporting at gas exchange valve, and clamping mechanism controllable depending on distance between adjusting pin and transmission element

摘要

The element has an adjusting pin (1) supported by a thread against a spring force in a sleeve (2) that is arranged at a component of an internal-combustion engine. A transmission element (3) stands in an effective connection with the pin, and supports at a spring-tensioned gas exchange valve and at a cam of a cam shaft, where the shaft is driven by the engine. A clamping effect of a clamping mechanism is adjustable and effective between the pin and the sleeve. The clamping mechanism is controllable depending on a distance between the pin and the transmission element.
