A connecting rod is described for an internal combustion engine comprising a shaft (1) and two connecting rod eyes (2, 3), of which the connecting rod eye (3) accommodating a piston pin has an eccentric (4) forming a pin bearing (5), and comprising a positioning drive (20), which is drivable via a hydraulic positioning cylinder (16), for a gear ring (8) of the eccentric (4). To provide advantageous design conditions, it is proposed that the eccentric (4) be mounted so it is rotationally-adjustable between two stop-limited operating positions, which are offset by at least approximately 180° from one another, in which the axis (7) of the pin bearing (5) is located at least approximately in a shared axial plane (19) of the two connecting rod eyes (2, 3), and the positioning drive (20) comprise a gearwheel (9) meshing with the gear ring (8) of the eccentric (4). |
