A mounting arrangement for mounting at least one rotary valve to a drive shaft is provided, where the drive shaft includes at least one mounting hole at a predetermined position therein. The mounting arrangement may include at least one rotary valve having a curved portion and two side portions. The arrangement may also include a central passage passing through the two side portions that is shaped to allow the drive shaft to extend therethrough. The rotary valve may also include a mounting opening, opening towards the central passage at a predetermined position. The arrangement may include a mounting element extending through the mounting opening of the rotary valve into the mounting hole in the drive shaft, to mount the rotary valve to the drive shaft at a predetermined position.

The mounting arrangement according to claim 10, wherein the inner portion is provided with an internal thread and wherein the, mounting element is provided with an external thread that is dimensioned for engagement with said internal thread of the inner portion. 12. The mounting arrangement according to claim 10, further including a ring dowel arranged in said mounting opening in said rotary valve and the outer portion of said mounting hole in said drive shaft. 13. The mounting arrangement according to claim 12, wherein the ring dowel is made of metal. 14. A cylinder head arrangement comprising a cylinder head having at least one valve chamber defined therein; anda drive shaft and rotary valve combination including a mounting arrangement according to claim 1;wherein said combination is arranged in the cylinder head such that the at least one rotary valve is accommodated in the at least one valve chamber. 15. A method for mounting a rotary valve to a drive shaft having at least one mounting hole at a predetermined position therein, said method comprising: sliding the rotary valve onto said drive shaft;aligning a mounting opening in said rotary valve with a corresponding mounting hole in the drive shaft;inserting a ring dowel into the mounting opening of the rotary valve and a first part of the mounting hole in the drive shaft; andinserting a mounting element through the mounting opening of the rotary valve into the mounting hole in the drive shaft, after inserting the ring dowel, to attach the rotary valve to the drive shaft at a predetermined position, wherein the mounting element is inserted through the ring dowel into a second part of the mounting opening in the drive shaft. 16. The method as set forth in claim 15, wherein prior to sliding the rotary valve onto the drive shaft, the drive shaft is at least partially inserted into a valve chamber of a cylinder head of an internal combustion engine and the rotary valve is inserted into the valve chamber via an insertion opening formed in the cylinder head. 17. A mounting arrangement, comprising: at least one rotary valve having a curved portion,first and second side portions,a central passage passing through the two side portions co-axial with a central axis of the rotary valve,a chamber formed adjacent to the central passage, the chamber extending from a first opening on the first side portion to a second opening on the second side portion, anda mounting opening connected to the central passage;a drive shaft having at least one mounting hole, the drive shaft positioned within the central passage of the rotary valve such that the mounting hole is coaxially aligned with the mounting opening; anda mounting element extending through the mounting opening of the rotary valve into the mounting hole of the drive shaft, the mounting element coupling the rotary valve to the drive shaft. 18. The mounting arrangement of claim 17, wherein the mounting opening extends from the chamber to the central passage. 19. The mounting arrangement of claim 17, wherein the curved portion forms an opening fluidly connected to the chamber.
