Abstract
A variable compression ratio apparatus may include: a piston pin; a small diameter eccentric cam disposed on a piston; a large diameter eccentric cam disposed between the small diameter eccentric cam and a small end portion of a connecting rod; a first plunger movably disposed in a first plunger space inside the piston pin; a second plunger movably disposed in a second plunger space formed inside the piston pin; and first and second oil injection nozzles disposed at a lower portion of the piston. In particular, the first and second oil injection nozzles control a control position of the first and second plungers by supplying hydraulic pressure to an end portion of the first plunger and the other portion of the second plunger through first and second guide passages formed inside the piston by injecting oil to the lower portion of the piston.
