Abstract
A valve operating device for an internal combustion engine, including a plurality of cams or a camshaft having different cam profiles corresponding to operating conditions of the engine for opening and closing the intake valves according to the operating conditions of the engine. The high-speed cam has a cam lobe which projects from a base-circle portion of the cam by a distance smaller than the distance by which the cam lobe of a low-speed cam projects from the base-circle portion. The cam lobe of the high-speed cam also subtends a larger angle on the base circle of the camshaft than the cam lobe of the low-speed cam.
