Abstract:
A length-adjustable connecting rod has a first rod part and a second rod part, with the rod parts being displaceable telescopically toward and/or in one another by means of a length-adjusting means, and with the length-adjusting means being chargeable via a hydraulic channel with a hydraulic medium. The hydraulic channel is fluidly connectable by means of a control device to a hydraulic medium supply channel. The control device has a first and a second valve, each with a valve chamber and each with a valve body that can be pressed by a restorative force against a valve seat. The valve chamber of the first valve is fluidly connected to a first hydraulic channel, and the second valve chamber of the second valve to a second hydraulic channel. The valve bodies are operatively interconnected via a connecting device that can be displaced between a first position and a second position.

Claim (Index 1):
A length-adjustable connecting rod for a reciprocating piston engine, the connecting rod comprising a first rod part and a second rod part, wherein the two rod parts are displaceable toward and/or in one another in the direction of a longitudinal axis of the connecting rod by means of a length-adjusting means, wherein the length-adjusting means can be charged via at least one hydraulic channel with a hydraulic medium, and wherein the at least one hydraulic channel is fluidly connectable via a control device to at least one hydraulic medium supply channel,\n wherein the control device has a first valve and a second valve, each with a valve body that is arranged in a valve chamber, wherein it is possible for the valve bodies to be pressed by a restorative force against a valve seat, wherein a first valve chamber of the first valve is fluidly connected to a first hydraulic channel and a second valve chamber of the second valve is fluidly connected to a second hydraulic channel, and the valve bodies are operatively interconnected via a connecting device that can be displaced at least between a first position and a second position, and wherein, in the first position of the connecting device, the first valve body and, in the second position of the connecting device, the second valve body can be lifted by the connecting device counter to the restorative force from the associated first and second valve seat, respectively, and the corresponding first and second valve chamber can be fluidly connected to the hydraulic medium supply channel and, in the respective other position of the connecting device, the first valve body rests on the first valve seat and the second valve body rests on the second valve seat and block the fluid connection to the hydraulic medium supply channel.
