연합인증

연합인증 가입 기관의 연구자들은 소속기관의 인증정보(ID와 암호)를 이용해 다른 대학, 연구기관, 서비스 공급자의 다양한 온라인 자원과 연구 데이터를 이용할 수 있습니다.

이는 여행자가 자국에서 발행 받은 여권으로 세계 각국을 자유롭게 여행할 수 있는 것과 같습니다.

연합인증으로 이용이 가능한 서비스는 NTIS, DataON, Edison, Kafe, Webinar 등이 있습니다.

한번의 인증절차만으로 연합인증 가입 서비스에 추가 로그인 없이 이용이 가능합니다.

다만, 연합인증을 위해서는 최초 1회만 인증 절차가 필요합니다. (회원이 아닐 경우 회원 가입이 필요합니다.)

연합인증 절차는 다음과 같습니다.

최초이용시에는
ScienceON에 로그인 → 연합인증 서비스 접속 → 로그인 (본인 확인 또는 회원가입) → 서비스 이용

그 이후에는
ScienceON 로그인 → 연합인증 서비스 접속 → 서비스 이용

연합인증을 활용하시면 KISTI가 제공하는 다양한 서비스를 편리하게 이용하실 수 있습니다.

An engine valve actuation system is provided. An intake valve is moveable between a first position to prevent a flow of fluid and a second position to allow a flow of fluid. A cam assembly is connected to move the intake valve between the first position and the second position. A fluid actuator is configured to selectively prevent the intake valve from moving to the first position. A source of fluid is in fluid communication with the fluid actuator. A directional control valve is configured to control a flow of fluid between the source of fluid and the fluid actuator. A control valve is disposed between the source of fluid and the directional control valve. The control valve is moveable between a first position to prevent the flow of fluid between the source of fluid and the directional control valve and a second position to allow the flow of fluid from the source of fluid to the directional control valve.

What is claimed is: 1. An engine valve actuation system, comprising: an intake valve moveable between a first position to prevent a flow of fluid and a second position to allow a flow of fluid; a cam assembly connected to move the intake valve between the first position and the second position; a fluid actuator configured to selectively prevent the intake valve from moving to the first position; a first source of fluid in fluid communication with the fluid actuator; a second source of fluid configured to provide fluid having a pressure greater than the pressure of the fluid supplied by said first source of fluid; a directional control valve configured to control a flow of fluid between the source of fluid and the fluid actuator; and a directional control valve disposed between either the first or the second source of fluid and the fluid actuator and moveable between a first position to prevent a flow of fluid between either the first or the second source of fluid and the directional control valve and a second position to allow the flow of fluid from either the first or the second source of fluid to the directional control valve. 2. The engine valve actuation system of claim 1, further including a controller configured to move a control valve between the first position and the second position. 3. The engine valve actuation system of claim 1, wherein the fluid actuator includes a piston operably associated with the intake valve. 4. The engine valve actuation system of claim 1, further including a check valve, wherein the check valve and the directional control valve are disposed in parallel between the fluid actuator and the control valve. 5. The engine valve actuation system of claim 1, wherein the directional control valve includes a spring acting to bias the directional control valve into the first position. 6. The engine valve actuation system of claim 1, wherein the directional control valve includes a spring acting to bias the directional control valve into the second position. 7. The engine valve actuation system of claim 1, further including an air bleed valve. 8. The engine valve actuation system of claim 7, wherein the air bleed valve is disposed between the check valve and the fluid actuator. 9. The engine valve actuation system of claim 1, further including a hydraulic snubbing valve configured to control the rate of fluid flow from the fluid actuator. 10. The engine valve actuation system of claim 1, further including an accumulator and a restricted orifice. 11. The engine valve actuation system of claim 10, wherein the restricted orifice is disposed between the fluid actuator and the accumulator. 12. The engine valve actuation system of claim 1, wherein the first source of fluid provides fluid having a pressure of between about 210 KPa and 620 KPa to the fluid actuator. 13. The engine valve actuation system of claim 1, wherein the second source of fluid provides fluid having a pressure of between about 10 MPa and 35 MPa to the fluid actuator. 14. A method of controlling an engine having a piston moveable through an intake stroke followed by an compression stroke, comprising: rotating a cam to move an intake valve between a first position to prevent a flow piston; directing fluid through a control valve to a fluid actuator associated with the intake valve when the intake valve is removed from the first position; actuating a directional control valve to selectively prevent fluid from flowing from the fluid actuator to thereby prevent the intake valve from moving to the first position during at least a portion of the compression stroke of the piston; sensing at least one operating parameter of the engine; and moving the control valve to a closed position to prevent fluid from flowing to the directional control valve and the fluid actuator based on the sensed operating parameter of the engine. 15. The method of claim 14, wherein the at least one operating parameter is at least one of a coolant temperature, an oil temperature, an engine temperature, an ambient air temperature, an engine speed, an engine load, and an intake air pressure. 16. The method of claim 14, further including closing the directional control valve to prevent fluid from releasing from the fluid actuator to thereby prevent the intake valve from moving to the first position. 17. The method of claim 16, further including opening the directional control valve to release fluid from the fluid actuator to allow the intake valve to move to the first position. 18. An engine, comprising: an engine block defining at least one cylinder and a cylinder head having at least one intake passageway leading to the at least one cylinder; at least one intake valve moveable between a first position to prevent a flow of fluid through the at least one intake passageway and a second position to allow a flow of fluid through the at least one intake passageway; a cam assembly connected to the intake valve to move the intake valve between the first position and the second position; a fluid actuator configured to selectively prevent the intake valve from moving to the first position; a first source of fluid in fluid communication with the fluid actuator; a second source of fluid configured to provide fluid having a pressure greater than the pressure of the fluid supplied by said first source of fluid; a directional control valve configured to control a flow of fluid between the source of fluid and the fluid actuator; a control valve disposed between either the first or second source of fluid and the directional control valve and moveable between a first position to prevent a flow of fluid between either the first or second source of fluid and the directional control valve and a second position to allow the flow of fluid from either the first or second source of fluid to the directional control valve; and a controller configured to move the control valve between the first and second positions based upon at least one operating parameter of the engine. 19. The engine of claim 18, further including a sensor configured to sense the at least one operating parameter of the engine. 20. The engine of claim 18, wherein the at least one operating parameter is at least one of a coolant temperature, an oil temperature, an engine temperature, an ambient air temperature, and engine speed, an engine load, and an intake air pressure. 21. The engine of claim 18, wherein the fluid actuator includes a piston operatively associated with the intake valve. 22. The engine of claim 18, further including a check valve, wherein the check valve and the directional control valve are disposed in parallel between the fluid actuator and the control valve. 23. The engine of claim 18, wherein the directional control valve includes a spring acting on the directional control valve to bias the directional control valve into the second position. 24. The engine of claim 18, wherein the directional control valve includes a spring acting on the directional control valve to bias the directional control valve into the second position. 25. The engine of claim 18, wherein the first source of fluid provides fluid having a pressure of between about 210 KPa and 620 KPa to the fluid actuator. 26. The engine of claim 18, wherein the second source of fluid provides fluid having a pressure of between about 10 MPa and 35 MPa to the fluid actuator.
