A kind of variable engine valve control system with pressure difference
comprises hydraulic supply equipment, hydraulic actuator apparatus, valve
and spring controlling piston balance. The hydraulic actuator comprises
hydraulic cylinder, piston and piston rod. The piston rod is coupled and
moved with the valve. It is characterized by that the said piston divides
the hydraulic cylinder into upper chamber and lower chamber. The said
hydraulic supply equipment is connected with the upper chamber of the
hydraulic cylinder through the fluid inlet pipe and the said lower
chamber of the hydraulic cylinder is connected with the hydraulic supply
equipment through the pressure difference proportional relief valve.
Utilizing pressure difference proportional relief valve as key control
element, the height of the valve opening is not related to the pressure
of the system, it only needs to change electric signal to vary the
pressure difference of the upper and lower chambers of the piston thereby
attain the object of making variable valve lift and timing at any time as
required. Therefore, the system has fast response speed, simple
structure, low cost, fine reliability, and less interference.
Consequently, this invention can meet the requirement of higher operating
speed of internal combustion engines. It can be popularized and applied
in internal combustion engines.
