ABSTRACT:
A variable duration valve timing camshaft is disclosed. The camshaft has a shaft with fixed cam lobes and lobe modifying elements that are adapted to move outwardly as the rate of rotation of the camshaft increases thereby cooperating with the lobes to continuously increase the angular distance at constant radius of each fixed valve lobe's nose. The lobe modifying elements are further adapted to move inwards as the rate of rotation of the camshaft decreases thereby continuously decreasing the angular distance of constant radius of each fixed valve lobe's nose until it equals that of the fixed lobe. The lobe modifying elements are pivotally connected to the camshaft.
