Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0624717A1] An adjuster unit is described for two camshafts (53, 54) of an internal combustion engine, adjustable differently from one another in their phase angle relative to a crankshaft (52). In V-type engines, the said adjuster unit (55), from which endless chain or belt drives (56) lead to the camshafts (53, 54), is arranged in the V space. The adjuster unit (55) is designed as a pre-assembled unit and can be flange-mounted on the end face of the internal combustion engine housing. Advantageous design embodiments of such an adjuster unit (55) are indicated. <IMAGE>
