Abstract

See full text

A valve lifter of a valve mechanism for an internal combustion engine is provided with a crown-shaped valve lifter body which has a center plate with a recess. A fixing projection is integrally formed with the center plate and is formed along a side wall which defines the recess. An inner shim of a disc shape has a plurality of grooves to which the fixing projection is filled by caulking the fixing projection for fixedly connecting the inner shim with the valve lifter body. Therefore, the inner shim is easily and securely assembled in the recess of the valve lifter body so as not to generate the looseness between the inner shim and the valve lifter body while the assemble performance is improved.
