Abstract
An oil separator is designed for an internal combustion engine with a camshaft system, via which oil separator a medium containing oil-particle-enriched blow-by gases, is influenced to the effect that the oil particles and the blow-by gases are separated and supplied to an oil circuit or to an inlet system of the internal combustion engine. The oil particles are separated from the blow-by gases by rotation of the camshaft system. In order to optimize this oil separator, the camshaft system has at least one camshaft on which a centrifugal blade device acting as the oil separator is effective. The centrifugal blade device conveys the oil particles of the medium against housing walls which are adjacent relative to the camshaft and lead to the oil circuit, with the blow-by gases freed from oil particles being conducted into the inlet system by the pressure conditions prevailing in a crankcase of the internal combustion engine.
