Flat rocker arm having a clevis

摘要

The present invention is directed to a rocker arm having a pivoting clevis mounted to a second end of the rocker arm that engages a valve stem or a bridge that activates dual valves. The clevis has a substantially flat contacting surface and an internal recess created by two upwardly extending walls and an upwardly facing cam surface or receiving the second end of the rocker arm. The clevis is attached to the second end of the rocker arm by an attachment pin that extends through the upwardly extending walls of the clevis and through the second end of the rocker arm. The second end of the rocker arm has a downwardly extending portion that mates with the upwardly facing cam surface of the clevis to allow the clevis to pivot about the attachment pin.
