A method of matching a wheel and a tire includes steps of: measuring inner runout and outer runout of a wheel; extracting and setting a primary component of a measurement waveform of the inner runout as an inner runout waveform and extracting and setting a primary component of a measurement waveform of the outer runout as an outer runout waveform; comparing an inner minimum value that is a minimum value of the inner runout waveform and an outer minimum value that is the minimum value of the outer runout waveform with a predetermined runout reference value; and determining an assembly reference position of the wheel based on the inner minimum value or the outer minimum value or based on a resultant waveform of the inner runout waveform and the outer runout waveform, depending on a result of the comparing step.

A cartridge which is detachably mountable in a printer main body includes a rotatable member and a coupler to rotate the rotatable member by receiving rotation power from an external source. The coupler includes a coupler body connected to the rotatable member and a coupler arm provided at the coupler body so as to be movable to a first position and a second position. The first position is farther from a center of rotation of the coupler than the second position, and the coupler arm is to push and rotate the coupler body when the rotation power is received by the coupler. The coupler also includes an elastic member to apply an elastic force to the coupler arm in a direction in which the coupler arm returns to the first position from the second position.

The present disclosure provides a locking structure of a valve timing adjustment apparatus for an internal combustion engine, using torque from a camshaft and the pressure of working fluid. The locking structure includes an anti-rotation mechanism for inhibiting or preventing a position change between a rotor and a housing by preventing relative rotation of the rotor to the housing. The anti-rotation mechanism further includes: a plurality of locking grooves which are formed on the ratchet plate with different depths and connected to each other; and a locking pin member. In particular, the locking pin member has: a hollow outer pin elastically disposed in a fitting hole formed in vanes, an inner pin elastically disposed inside the outer pin, and a lifter ring coupled to the upper portion of the outer pin to slide on the inner side of the fitting hole.

The present disclosure provides a valve timing adjustment apparatus for an internal combustion engine. The apparatus includes an anti-rotation mechanism for inhibiting a position change between a rotor and a housing by inhibiting or preventing relative rotation of the rotor to the housing. The anti-rotation mechanism includes: a plurality of locking grooves formed on the ratchet plate with different depths and connected to each other; and a locking pin member having an outer pin elastically disposed in a fitting hole formed in one of the vanes, and an inner pin elastically disposed inside the outer pin. In particular, the inner pin locks the rotor to the housing when the outer pin and the inner pin are sequentially fitted in the locking grooves by torque from the camshaft.

Valve timing adjustment apparatus for internal combustion engine

Disclosed is an apparatus of adjusting valve timing for internal combustion engine configured to adjust at least one valve timing of an intake valve and an exhaustive valve by torque of a cam shaft and pressure of working fluid, and a method thereof. The method of the present disclosure is such that a rotor is embedded with a hydraulic control valve configured to operate a locking pin member, and the hydraulic control valve is so configured as to have various control positions in order to supply or discharge working fluid in response to engine emergency stop or start and normal engine operational state whereby locking and releasing operations are realized with accurate responsiveness and reliability due to smaller working fluid through a passage and an engine performance can be improved by adjusting the valve timing.

An oil drain structure of a valve timing adjusting device for an internal combustion engine is provided to adjust a valve timing of at least one of an intake valve and an exhaust valve by a torque of a cam shaft and a pressure of a working fluid. The oil drain structure of the valve timing adjusting device includes a rotation preventing means to suppress a position change between a rotor and a housing by regulating a relative rotation of the rotor with respect to the housing.

The present disclosure provides a hydraulic control valve for a valve timing adjusting device of an engine. The valve timing adjusting device has a hydraulic control valve; a housing; a rotor installed in the housing and having vanes forming advance, retard and locking chambers, respectively; and a locking pin member elastically installed at the locking chamber. In particular, the hydraulic control valve includes: a valve body connected to the camshaft and having ports and a spool space; an outer spool elastically installed in the spool space and having distribution ports selectively communicated with or disconnected to the ports of the valve body; and an inner spool that is integrally coupled to the outer spool and forms a supply passage connected to a working fluid pump and a drain passage connected to a drain tank together. With this arrangement, the hydraulic control valve reliably provides phase angle control operation and the self-locking operation to adjust a valve timing and thereby improving engine performance.
