ABSTRACT:
A system (1) comprising a cam (2) with a cam lug (3) and a cam follower element (11) which undergoes an oscillating reciprocating movement in the direction of its longitudinal axis (12) when the cam (2) rotates, in whichthe central plane (5) of the cam (2), which extends perpendicularly with respect to the rotational axis (4) of the cam (2), is arranged offset with respect to the longitudinal axis (12) of the cam follower element (11) by an eccentricity E1,so that the cam follower element (11) rotates about its longitudinal axis (12) when the cam (2) is in engagement, with its cam outer face (6) along a contact line (10), with the cam follower element (11).The cam (2) has at least one groove (7) in its cam outer face (6) in the circumferential direction at least in the area of the cam lug (3).
