20180209310 · 2018-07-26 ·

Cam phasing systems and methods are provided. In particular, a cam phasing system is provided that includes a reduced number of components when compared to current mechanical cam phasing systems. The cam phasing system includes a helix locking design that is configured to frictionally lock an helix rod during cam torque pulses.

Multi-positional camshaft phaser with two one-way wedge clutches and spring actuator
09869214 · 2018-01-16 · ·

A camshaft phaser including a gear arranged to receive torque from an engine, a housing non-rotatably connected to the gear and arranged to connect to a camshaft and a phase adjustment assembly including first gear teeth, second gear teeth and a hub arranged to non-rotatably connect to the camshaft and including third gear teeth and a displacement assembly arranged to for an advance mode, displace the hub in a first axial direction so that the third gear teeth non-rotatably connect to the second gear teeth and the hub is rotatable with respect to the housing in a first circumferential direction and for a retard mode, displace the hub in a second axial direction, opposite the first axial direction, so that the third gear teeth non-rotatably connect to the first gear teeth and the hub is rotatable with respect to the housing in a second circumferential direction.
