Abstract

Dispositif de distribution à programme variable de type à engrenage planétaire qui comporte un mécanisme sous forme d'engrenage planétaire possédant une roue interne d'entrée rotative sur un arbre à cames, une roue solaire rotative sur l'arbre à cames et placée à l'intérieur de la roue interne d'entrée, et des roues planétaires rotatives sur un support fixé sur l'arbre à cames et engrenées avec ces deux roues, ainsi qu'un mécanisme de commande de phase de rotation destiné à faire tourner la roue solaire pour modifier la phase de l'arbre à cames. Les roues planétaires comportent en outre des première et seconde roues planétaires disposées parallèlement entre elles dans le sens axial, entraînées en rotation et maintenues par un élément ressort dans des sens opposés. La partie dentelée de la roue interne d'entrée (roue solaire) est maintenue par les parties dentelées des première et seconde roues planétaires, afin de ne pouvoir tourner vers l'avant ou vers l'arrière, au niveau d'engrènement desdites roues planétaires avec la roue interne d'entrée (roue solaire). Même si une variation de couple se produit dans l'arbre à cames lorsque les soupapes sont ouvertes et fermées, les parties dentelées ne produisent aucun bruit de cognement entre elles.
