Definition von cam shaft im Englisch Englisch wörterbuch

camshaft
A shaft fitted with cams; especially one in a piston engine that activates the valves
camshaft
The shaft in the engine which is driven by gears, belts or chain from the crankshaft The camshaft has a series of cams that opens and closes intake and exhaust valves as it turns
camshaft
has cams attached to it
camshaft
A shaft with cam lobes that causes the valves to open and close See also cam, overhead camshaft, push rods, rocker arms
camshaft
A camshaft, with phased cam lobes mounted on it, regulates the opening and closing of the intake and exhaust valves Driven by the crankshaft via a timing chain or timing belt, a camshaft has a big influence on engine power characteristics
camshaft
> The part of the engine that controls the lifting of the intake and/or exhaust valves
camshaft
A shaft with cam lobes (bumps) which is driven by gears, a belt, or a chain from the crankshaft The lobes push on the valve lifters to cause the valves to open and close The camshaft turns at half the speed of the crankshaft Also see double-overhead cam, overhead cam, race camshaft, and three-quarter race camshaft
camshaft
(Otomotiv) A shaft with cam lobes that causes the valves to open and close. See also cam, overhead camshaft, push rods, rocker arms
camshaft
Rotating shaft with lobes that open valves at the correct times for proper engine operation
camshaft
A shaft with bumps which is driven by gears, a belt, or a chain from the crankshaft The bumps push on the valve lifters to cause the valves to open and close The camshaft turns at half the speed of the crankshaft
camshaft
A shaft fitted with several cams, whose lobes push on valve lifters to convert rotary motion into linear motion The opening and closing of the valves in all piston engines is regulated by one or more camshafts
camshaft
A shaft inside your engine that has lobes to operate the engine's valves In "pushrod" engines, lifters ride on the cam lobes The up and down motion is transferred through push rods and rocker arms to actuate the valves (See Lifters) In an "overhead" cam engine, the cam may push directly on the tops of the valves or work the valves through short rocker arms Loss of lubrication (low oil) or dirty oil can cause scuffing and lobe wear on a cam The result is loss of engine power because the affected valves don't open completely The only cure is to replace the cam -- a job that requires more advanced skills The cam may also be changed to improve performance and/or fuel economy Aftermarket camshafts offer a wide range of different lobe profiles from which to choose A higher lift, longer duration cam generally provides more power and moves the engine's peak power point up the rpm scale
camshaft
A camshaft is a rod in an engine and works to change circular motion into motion up and down or from side to side. a metal bar that a cam is fastened to in an engine
camshaft
A shaft fitted with cams; especialy one in a piston engine that activates the valves
camshaft
{i} shaft to which a cam is affixed
