ABSTRACT:
A rotary valve which may be axially adjusted for varying an open duration of the valve. The device includes a rotary valve having a substantially wedge shaped, contoured aperture which allows passage of a combustion mixture through an intake port and into the combustion chamber of an engine during rotation of the valve. The rotary valve is slidably positioned upon a splined shaft which both rotates and permits axial movement of the valve, with such axial motion aligning various portions of the contoured aperture with the intake port to effect a controlled variance of the duration of time the valve permits flow through the port.
