Abstract
A valve timing control device has a lock pin for controlling the rotation between first and second rotors. A purge valve is arranged at the lock pin, the purge valve discharging air-mixing oil into a discharge hole in a release operation. On application of first pressure of release hydraulic pressure, a part of the first pressure is discharged through the purge valve, a backward pressure chamber and the discharge hole to the outside the device. Therefore, the lock pin is slid to reduce applied pressure, and it can delay a release operation to prevent the occurrence of beat noise on starting an engine.
