Abstract:
A sliding cam system for a variable valve train. The sliding cam system includes a camshaft, a cam carrier, a cam follower, and a first actuator. A first cam of the cam carrier and a second cam of the cam carrier are arranged offset with respect to one another along a longitudinal axis of the camshaft. The first cam comprises a base circle region and a valve lift region with a limiting section which adjoins the base circle region of the first cam. The second cam has a base circle region and a valve lift region with a limiting section which adjoins the base circle region of the second cam. The limiting section of the first cam and the limiting section of the second cam are of identical configuration and are arranged at an identical circumferential position about the longitudinal axis of the camshaft.

Claim (Index 20):
A motor vehicle, comprising:\n a variable valve train for an internal combustion engine, including: a sliding cam system, having:\n a camshaft; \n a cam carrier which is arranged on the camshaft fixedly so as to rotate with it and axially displaceably between a first axial position and a second axial position, and comprises a first cam, a second cam and a first engagement track for the axial displacement of the cam carrier; \n a cam follower which is operatively connected to the first cam in the first axial position of the cam carrier and is operatively connected to the second cam in the second axial position of the cam carrier; and \n a first actuator which comprises an element which can be retracted and extended, for engaging into the first engagement track for the axial displacement of the cam carrier; \n the first cam and the second cam being arranged offset with respect to one another along a longitudinal axis of the camshaft; \n the first cam comprising a base circle region and a valve lift region with a limiting section which adjoins the base circle region of the first cam; \n the second cam comprising a base circle region and a valve lift region with a limiting section which adjoins the base circle region of the second cam; \n the limiting section of the first cam and the limiting section of the second cam being of identical configuration and being arranged at an identical circumferential position about the longitudinal axis of the camshaft; and \n the first actuator, the cam follower and the first engagement track being arranged and configured in such a way that an axial displacement of the cam carrier can be carried out while the cam follower is operatively connected to the limiting section of the first cam or the limiting section of the second cam; and \n a gas exchange valve, which is operatively connected to the cam follower, wherein, the first cam and the second cam bringing about different valve lifts, opening times or closing times of the gas exchange valve.
