Internal combustion engine has respective first latching element mounted in cylinder head or in cylinder head cover or in camshaft bearing device, such that sensor detects position of respective first latching element

摘要

The engine has axially displaceable sliding cam (7) for actuation of gas exchange valves of bearing unit (8) of cam shaft (6). The axial displacement of respective cam shaft in its axial relative position is performed for actuating the gas exchange valve. The respective first latching element with several locking recesses is mounted in cylinder head (1) or in cylinder head cover (2) or in bearing device, such that sensor detects position of respective first latching element, so as to detect relative position of respective sliding cam relative to the to-be-actuated gas exchange valve.
