ABSTRACT:
A valve gear lubricating device is provided for lubricating a valve gear of an engine including a cam shaft which is rotatable by the engine, and a rocker arm oscillated by a cam disposed on the cam shaft. A slide contact portion is formed on one end of the rocker arm and is slideably contactable with the cam. A hydraulic valve adjuster is mounted on the other end of the rocker arm and is adapted to adjust a valve clearance of the engine. The rocker arm is provided with a mixture passage through which flows a mixture of air and lubricating oil discharged from the hydraulic valve adjuster. A terminal end of the mixture passage opens close to a moving part of the valve gear.
