Abstract
A variable valve gear for a combustion engine includes at least one lift valve and a camshaft, which comprises a first cam and a second cam () arranged offset in a longitudinal direction of the camshaft. The variable valve gear further comprises a transmission lever, which is arranged in operative connection between at least the one lift valve and the camshaft for actuating at least the one lift valve. The transmission lever comprises a swivel axis, a mounting and a cam follower (). The mounting is supported so that it can swivel about the swivel axis. The mounting holds the cam follower (). The mounting is supported so that it is axially displaceable parallel to the swivel axis and/or parallel to the camshaft, so that the cam follower () follows either the cam contour of the first cam or the cam contour of the second cam ().
