ABSTRACT:
A valve timing control device has a rotor fixed on a cam shaft of an engine and a housing member ratably mounted on the cam shaft. The housing member surrounds the rotor. A chamber defined between the housing member and the rotor has a pair of circumferentially opposed walls. A vane is mounted on the rotor and extends outwardly therefrom in the radial direction into the chamber so as to divide the chamber into a first pressure chamber and a second pressure chamber. A plate spring is inserted between the rotor and the vane and a fluid supplying device supplies fluid under pressure to at least a selected one of the first pressure chamber and the second pressure chamber.
