Abstract
A hydraulic camshaft phaser including: a stator including a surface facing radially outwardly, and defining a recess; a rotor arranged to be non-rotatably connected to a camshaft and rotatable with respect to the stator; a spiral spring disposed in the recess and including a first end non-rotatably connected to the rotor and a second end non-rotatably connected to the stator; and a resilient cover plate directly connected to the surface facing radially outwardly, enclosing the spiral spring in the recess, and circumferentially preloaded. A hydraulic camshaft phaser including: a stator: arranged to receive rotational torque and defining a recess and a groove; a rotor rotatable with respect to the stator; a spiral spring disposed in the recess; and a resilient cover plate including a portion disposed in the groove, enclosing the spiral spring in the recess, and compressively engaging the stator in a radially inward direction.
