Abstract
In a valve timing adjusting device, a vane rotor includes a second supply oil passage connectable to a first supply oil passage of a second shaft. A check valve is provided between the vane rotor and the second shaft, and permits a flow from the first supply oil passage toward the second supply oil passage and prevents a flow from the second supply oil passage toward the first supply oil passage. A fixing unit is provided between the check valve and the second shaft, and fixes the check valve between the fixing unit and the vane rotor. The fixing unit includes a third supply oil passage which connects the first supply oil passage and the second supply oil passage. A filter is provided for the fixing unit and can capture foreign substances flowing through the third supply oil passage.
