Abstract
Groups of camshafts () are connected to camshaft adjusters () via adapters. According to prior art, adaptations to the camshaft adjuster () are necessary for different mounting conditions and/or different geometries of camshafts (). Here, an adapter () is provided between camshaft () and camshaft adjuster (), which adapter can then be adapted to different geometries of the camshaft () and/or mounting positions. By this, the multiplicity of parts can be reduced.
