밸브 트레인 시스템의 태핏 회전 측정 장치의 개발

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to measure the rotational speed of tappet in OHC valve train system. Tappet has eccentricity about cam center, which induces the tappet rotation and prevents from wear. In this paper, the experimental test rig which composes of one cam system is developed to measure the tappet rotation by using the laser generating system, rotary encoder, optical fiber, and photo transistor. The direction of tappet rotation is judged from the oder of optical signal. As results of experiment, average and instant rotational speed and average rotation angle per one cam revolution are presented. Measured results show that eccentricity ratio is dominant factor for the tappet rotation, and tappet is rotated at the base circle.
