Valve Actuation

We review variable valve actuation (VVA) concepts and also present the results of our work in the creative synthesis of these devices. We begin with a comprehensive survey of existing VVA devices. We then describe our work on four VVA concepts which we have explored in considerable detail. These include hydraulic lost-motion variable-lift systems, in both the direct acting and the roller-finger-follower configurations, several valve deactivation mechanisms with unique features, a variable valve-lift mechanism, and a variable-lift and duration concept. These devices differ in their complexity and versatility but offer a spectrum of design solutions applicable to a range of products. The strengths and weaknesses of these different approaches are discussed and analyzed, and some test results are presented.

Worm Drive

Gearing with a ZK worm and an involute helical gear is used in the motor drive system of automotive continuous variable valve lift (CVVL) because of production cost. Since the geared system does not satisfy the meshing condition, transmission error (TE) and teeth interference (TI) are inevitable. This paper introduces a method for reducing TE and eliminating TI. Transmission error function is derived mathematically and used in checking TI. The first prototype for an automobile shows a lot of NVH problem, which is simply combined by coinciding with the helix/lead angles of two gears at the pitch point. By an optimal process with alternating the pressure and helix angles of worm gear system, an prototype of CVVL worm drive of which NVH problem is acceptably solved is designed.
