Abstract (en)

An actuation system for actuating an intake valve associated with a cylinder of an internal combustion engine comprises a slave piston (21) that operates the intake valve (7) and that is hydraulically controlled by means of a volume of pressurized fluid (C) by a master piston (16) operated by a first cam (14A) of a camshaft (11). A control valve (24) controls the communication between the volume of pressurized fluid (C) and an environment at lower pressure to which a fluid accumulator is connected (270). The control valve (24) is mechanically controlled by a second cam (14B) that is carried by the camshaft (11) and that has the sole function of controlling the control valve (24).
