ABSTRACT:
There is provided a structure of a shim to be inserted in a clearance provided between a cam and a tappet in a moving valve mechanism of an internal combustion engine, wherein a volumetric density of the shim body is changed such that it is maximized at an upper surface of the shim, at which the shim is in contact with the cam when a compression load or shock from the cam is applied to the shim, and the density is gradually decreased from the maximized portion to a lower or peripheral portions.
