Abstract
A camshaft phaser for an internal combustion engine includes a driven hub attached to a camshaft, and a drive sprocket journaled to the driven hub. A locking device uses a pin receptacle having a locking bore and an engagement ramp which is contiguous with the locking bore to allow a locking pin to extend partially from its housing pin bore before the locking pin is registered with the locking bore.
