Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2540997A1] A continuously variable valve timing (CVVT) system which may be operated in cooperation with a continuously variable valve lift (CVVL) engine may be included. A reference position of a suction CVVT may be set by a spring. In addition, a method for controlling a continuously variable valve timing (CVVT) system may be included. The method includes setting a reference position of a suction CVVT to a most advanced angle position, and controlling a delayed angle amount at the reference position of the most advanced angle.
