LIFTER ROTATION PREVENTING STRUCTURE

摘要

A lifter rotation preventing structure includes a lifter body, a retainer and a biasing member. The lifter body is inserted into a sliding hole of a housing and reciprocated according to rotation of a cam. The lifter body has a peripheral wall slidable in a sliding hole and a partition wall partitioning an inside of the peripheral wall into a first space where the cam is located and a second space located opposite the first space. The retainer has a retainer body connected to an engaging member and a rotation preventing protrusion protruding from an outer periphery of the retainer body and fittingly extending through the peripheral wall. The rotation preventing protrusion has a distal end moved into a rotation preventing groove to prevent the lifter body from rotation. The biasing member interposed between the retainer body and the housing to bias the lifter body to the cam side.

1. A lifter rotation preventing structure comprising:
a lifter body inserted into a sliding hole of a housing and reciprocated according to rotation of a cam, the lifter body having a peripheral wall slidable in the sliding hole and a partition wall partitioning an inside of the peripheral wall into a first space in which the cam is located and a second space located opposite the first space; a retainer disposed in the second space of the lifter body and having a retainer body located inside the peripheral wall and connected to an engaging member reciprocally displaced together with the lifter body, the retainer having a rotation preventing protrusion protruding from an outer periphery of the retainer body and fittingly extending through the peripheral wall, the rotation preventing protrusion having a distal end moved into a rotation preventing groove communicating with the sliding hole of the housing thereby to prevent the lifter body from rotation; and a biasing member disposed in the second space of the lifter body and interposed between the retainer body and the housing to bias the lifter body to the cam side.
