Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2020108933A1] The invention relates to a variable-lift valve train (1) for a gas exchange valve (2) of an internal combustion engine, having: a lift adjuster (4), in particular an intermediate lever, with a working curve (2) which can be arranged at least in a first working position (A1) for setting a partial lift (hmill) and in a second working position (A2) for setting a maximum lift (hmax), the working curve having a maximum curvature (Kmax) in one region (BKmax); a lift actuator (10), in particular a cam of a camshaft, which has an actuating contour (NK) for deflecting the lift adjuster; a lift lever (9), in particular a roller finger follower, which can be deflected by means of the working curve and thereby set a lift (h) of the gas exchange valve, wherein the working curve of the deflected lift adjuster can actuate the gas exchange valve when moved over a contact face of the lift lever. The invention also relates to a method for operating a variable-lift valve train (1).
