ABSTRACT:
A continuously variable valve timing control system comprises a camshaft, a timing sprocket, and a helical sleeve disposed between the camshaft and the timing sprocket to provide a drive connection therebetween. The helical sleeve is axially movable between two limit axial positions to vary a phase between the camshaft and timing sprocket. An instantaneous axial position of the helical sleeve is detected. A split, coned sleeve holds a motion sensing rod for restraining the helical sleeve moving in both axial directions when the instantaneous axial position detected reaches a new axial position.
