ABSTRACT:
The camshaft of an internal combustion engine is driven by a chain drive from an adjacent parallel intermediate shaft, which itself is driven with a toothed belt by the engine crankshaft. For a four valve cylinder head having two overhead camshafts, one camshaft is used as the intermediate shaft. By means of a hydraulic tensioning device applied at the chain drive, the relative rotating position of both camshafts and thus also the control time of the valves can be changed.
