MECHANISM FOR THE DRIVING or onmsrmrrs or INTERNAL-COMBUS'iIQN ENGINES.

Application filed February 12, 1919. Serial No. 276,567.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, HARRY RALPH RI vented certain new and useful Improvements in Mechanism for the Driving ,o f Cam-Shafts .of Internal-Combustion Engines, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to mechanism. for the driving of cam shafts of internal combustion engines and has for its object to provide asilent drive which is capable of adjustment and more {particularly applicable to engines provided with twin cam shafts while at the same time occupying less this purpose.
When it is desired to provide a particularly silent valve gear it'is customary to drive the cam shaft and other auxiliary parts by means of chains of the type usually desi nated silent. I Owing to the great of the sprockets which it is necessary to use in such a'driving mechanism considerable space is occupled andmoreover some means. must be provided for taking up the chain when it stretches, such adjustment being usually eifected by mounting one or more of the driven shafts iii eccentric bearings or by employing jockey wheels. Where the engine is provided with two cam shafts and also some auxiliary part whichh-as to be driven the utilization of silent chains is almost prohibitive by reason oftheifspace V occupied by the chains, the sprockets'an'd the A adjustable bearings or jockey Wheels. On the other hand an almost equally'silent drive can be obtained by using helical spur gearing but inthis case thesilence depends upon I the pitching of the wheels and such a degree of accuracy is required as can not ordinarily be insured when employing the usual manufacturing processes. Secondly when such gearlng 1s used it becomes necessary to mount a certain number of the wheels on adjustable bearings in order that all pitch of these chains and the large diameter and pin while an idle wheel is provided which is disposed a short distance from the cranked ends of the cam shaft and also carries a similar crank and pin. A triangular connecting rod serves to "couple together these three crank pins while the idle wheel.
is driven off the engine crank shaft by a chain. The idle wheel is formed as a toothed wheel which is driven by a chain off a toothed wheel mounted on the engine crank shaft, this chain passes over a second idle wheel from which power can be taken for the driving of an auxiliary shaft. This sec ond idle wheel is mounted on a member which can slide for the purposes of adjustment and this adjustment serves not only to take up the main driving chain which passes around the toothed wheel on the crank shaft but also to take up the chain which'is used to transmit power from the Second idle wheel to the auxiliary shaft driven thereby. Preferably it is desirable that the axis of the first idle wheel should be equidistant fromthe axes of the two cam shafts, and that the triangular connecting rod should be as nearly'as possible an equilateral triangle. spectively on the ends of the cam shafts and on the idle wheel are mounted on similar and interchangeable disks which can be fixed to the, sever'alparts. The accompanying drawingsillustrate by way of example one construction according to the present invention. In these drawings. Figure 1 is an end elevation-of a portion Conveniently the, crank pins re of an internal combustion engine provided with the improved driving mechanism.
Fig; 2 IS a section on the broken line 2-2 of Fig. 1 the section being arranged to pass through the end of one of the cam shafts, one limb of the triangular connecting rod and through the idle Wheel axis.
Fig. 3 is a' transverse section on the line 33 of Fig. 1.
Like letters indicate like parts throughout the drawings. I
On the end of each of the two'cam shafts A and A is mounted and keyed a flanged sleeve B and on to the flange of this sleeve is a j V is bolted a disk C carrying a crank in D. Around the periphery of the disk flange adapted to closely embrace the periphery of the flange on the sleeve B as shown in Fig. 2. An idle toothed wheel E is mounted on a spindle E which is carried in suitable C, D are thus interchangeable.
lar connecting rod couples together the two cam shaft crank pins D and the idle wheel crank pin D this triangular connecting rod comprising a limb G which lies horizontally between the cam shaft crank pins D and two inclined limbs G and G which extend respectively between one of the cam shaft crank insD and the idle Wheel crank pin D. e center of the idle wheel spindle E is so disposed as to be equidistant from the centers of the cam shaftsA and A. Thus the limbs G and G of theatriangular connecting rod are of equal length and the length of these arms is slightly less than the length of the horizontal arm G. The triangle thus formed by the centers of the cam shafts A and A and the center of the idle wheel spindle E thus preferably approximates to an equilateral triangle as is desirable in order to reduce the variation in an- :gular velocity due to any given amount of slack in the crank pin bearings.
The idle wheel E is directly over the end of t e crank shaft H on which 'is mounted a' toothed wheel H. At one side of the idle wheel E is arranged a toothed wheel having a double set of teeth J and J this wheel being carried in bearings ,on a spindle J as shown in Fig.3. This spindle J is carried in a bracket member comprising a plate K and a divided part K which lies on either side of the double toothed wheel J J and supports the ends of the spindle J". In the plate K are slots K through which pass bolts L which enter con- '1 venientparts of the casing or framing F where flatysurfaces-are formed against which wrests the: face of the plate K. The arrangement is-such that the plate K together with the double wheel J J can be adjusted vertically and fixed by means of the nuts, on the bolts L. This sliding adjustment may be carried out by means of a set screw M which bears against the lower end of the plate K.
, A chain N passes around the toothed wheel H on the end of the crank shaft, around the idle wheel E and around portion J of the second idle wheel mounted on the spindle J By means of. this chain'the idle wheel E is driven from the crank shaft and by adjustmentof the plate K which carriesthe toothed wheel J it is ossible to take up any slack in this chain. Etotation of the idle wheel E ca ses simi ar o a i n o e cam shaf s referably disposed A A through the triangular connecting rods G, G G
Some auxiliary mechanism such as a pump may be driven off the second idle wheel J J and this drive may be arranged in the following manner.
A toothed wheel 0 is mounted on a spindle O in a suitable position at one side of the double wheel J J and a chain P passes around the wheel 0 and the toothed part J of the double idle wheel. The spindle 0 may be arranged to transmit rotary motion to a pump or other mechanism and this spindle is preferably disposed in substantially the same horizontal plane as the spindle J thatby adjusting the member K K which carries the spindle J 2 and double wheel J J it is possible not onlyto take up the slack in the main driving chain N in the manner indicated but also to take up the' slack in the auxiliary driving chain P.
The spindle E may be provided at its inner end with a crank pin E 'which may be usedfor driving a pump or other mechanism.
The details of construction may .be modi fied to suit requirementsand the construction of the engine to which the invention is applied.
