Abstract
A continuous variable valve lifter having a cylinder air volume difference adjuster includes a camshaft having an input cam, an eccentric control shaft disposed parallel to the camshaft, and a control link rotatable around the eccentric control shaft. An output cam is provided to open and close a valve actuator for opening/closing, and a connection link is rotatably connected to the control link, and driving the output cam by the rotation of the input cam. A cam cap is disposed where the camshaft and the eccentric control shaft are mounted. The cylinder air volume difference adjuster includes a hinge pin serving as the rotational center of the output cam disposed parallel to the camshaft, a pin holder where the hinge pin is mounted, and an adjusting bolt for selectively shifting the position of the pin holder.
