METHOD FOR OPERATING AN ADJUSTING DEVICE FOR VARIABLY ADJUSTING A COMPRESSION RATIO OF AN INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE

摘要

The invention relates to a method for operating an adjusting device for variably adjusting at least one compression ratio of an internal combustion engine, in particular a reciprocating piston internal combustion engine, in which the compression ratio is adjusted to a value which can be predetermined, and is adjusted during a time frame. A brake device of the adjusting device, in accordance with a load of the internal combustion engine, is selectively supplied with energy during at least, essentially, the entire time frame for maintaining the compression ratio or is operated in at least one state essentially without energy consumption during at least, essentially, the entire time span.
