Abstract

See full text

The valve open/close timing control device includes a housing that rotates synchronously with a crankshaft, an inner rotor that is disposed inside of the housing and rotates integrally with a camshaft, a fluid pressure chamber formed between the housing and the inner rotor, an intermediate lock mechanism capable of switching between a locked state and an unlocked state, an unlocking channel that allows passage of working oil to be supplied to or discharged from the intermediate lock mechanism, a lock discharge channel that allows passage of working oil discharged from the intermediate lock mechanism, and an electromagnetic valve that controls the supply/discharge of the working oil to/from the fluid pressure chamber and the intermediate lock mechanism. With this valve open/close timing control device, the lock discharge channel allows passage of the working oil in the case where the electricity supply amount to the electromagnetic valve is 0 or the maximum.
