Abstract
A hydraulically-actuated camshaft phaser includes a camshaft sprocket having a plurality of teeth configured to engage an endless loop that transmits angular motion from the crankshaft to the hydraulically-actuated camshaft phaser; a rotor, coupled with the camshaft sprocket to prevent angular movement between the camshaft sprocket and the rotor, that includes one or more vanes extending radially outwardly forming a plurality of fluid chambers; and a housing that selectively changes angular position relative to the rotor and the crankshaft and is configured to be linked with a variable phase camshaft to change the angular position of the variable phase camshaft relative to the crankshaft.
