SWITCHABLE ROCKER ARM

A rocker arm (10) includes an outer arm (14, 114, 214) and an inner arm (12) which selectively pivots relative to the outer arm (14, 114, 214). The rocker arm (10) also includes a lock pin (40) which is displaced along a lock pin axis (44) between a coupled position and a decoupled position. The roc...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A rocker arm (10) includes an outer arm (14, 114, 214) and an inner arm (12) which selectively pivots relative to the outer arm (14, 114, 214). The rocker arm (10) also includes a lock pin (40) which is displaced along a lock pin axis (44) between a coupled position and a decoupled position. The rocker arm (10) also includes a linkage (54, 154, 254) and a linkage guide (60, 160, 260) which guides the linkage (54, 154, 254) along a linkage axis (58, 158, 258). One surface of the linkage (54, 154, 254) engages an actuator (56) while another surface of the linkage (54, 154, 254) engages the lock pin (40) such that the linkage (54, 154, 254) translates motion from the actuator (56) to motion of the lock pin (40).
