Lesson 8
Valve Operating Gear
1. DEFINITION
A mechanism for actuating & controlling the inlet and exhaust
valves. It may also open and close air starting valves and fuel
pumps.
2. OPERATION OF VALVES
 Mechanical (valve operating gear)
Exhaust valve operating gear
1. DEFINITION
A mechanism for actuating & controlling the inlet and exhaust
valves. It may also open and close starting air valves and fuel pumps.
2. OPERATION OF VALVES
 Mechanical (valve operating gear)
 Hydraulic. There are neither pushrods nor rocker arms but a
piston pump. The oil pressure is led by means of a high
pressure pipe to a working cylinder and hydraulic piston placed
on top of the exhaust valve cage.
Hydraulically operated exhaust valve (Sulzer)
3. CAMSHAFT
3.1 CONSTRUCTION
Integral camshaft is made in a single piece of forged steel;
Separate cams of forged steel or cast iron are:
 keyed on the shaft;
 hyraulicaly shrunk on or press fitted;
 fitted to the shaft by SKF oil injection pressure method.
3.2 CAM DESIGN
3.3 CAMSHAFT ROTATION
4-stroke = ½ speed of the crankshaft
2-stroke = same speed as the crankshaft
3.4 CAMSHAFT DRIVE
 Train of gears
 Chain drive
3.5 REVERSING
The camshaft slides axially (in 4-stroke engines) thus bringing a
different set of cams for reverse direction.
