This invention will provide a means for the lobe separation angle of the camshaft between the intake and exhaust valves of an internal combustion engine, or any other piston type machine, using a camshaft and valves to control the air flow into and/or out of the engine or piston type pumping or power machine, to vary as the engine or machine operates. This invention will effectively reduce or increase the angular measurement from the intake lobe centerline to the exhaust valve lobe centerline during operation. This modulation of the valve events may be controlled by a computer, manually or automatically. This modulation of the valve events may be controlled by an operator, whether manually or semi-automatically. This modulation of the valve events may be controlled by some other means. The invention will be commanded by an external command to change the valve events as the engine or machine operates and the invention will then change the valve events of the intake valve(s), the exhaust valve(s) or both. In an internal combustion engine, whether spark ignited or combustion ignited, this invention will greatly modify the operating characteristics of the engine as to power output, operation speeds, fuel economy, emissions output, heat production of the engine and other operating characteristics. |
