Abstract
A rotatable media storage disk creates a simulation of the rotational motion of a cam shaft which would typically provide signals to the vehicle's computer for cam shaft position and necessary requirement for valve operation. A sensor controller has been provided to work independently or in combination with an engine computer to achieve direct control of the engine valves by providing multiple data channels capable of information input, storage and output by corresponding multiple read write sensors being timed directly to the crank shaft to control a wide range of automotive engine applications.
Claims7
An electronic engine timing device for use on camless internal combustion engines to variable adjust electronically controlled valve timing in relation to a crank shaft position comprises,
- a disk sensor controller timed to an engine crank shaft, an information disk containing readable media tracks rotatable by said engine crank shaft,
- multiple magnetic sensors heads reading said readable media tracks and communicating control signals to engine components and an engine computer,
- said readable media tracks in radially spaced relation to one another defining independent annular paths on said information disk,
- said control signals from said disk sensor controller including ignition timing, fuel timing and valve operation for direct control thereof,
- means for engine operation in direct communication from said disk sensor controller to said engine computer,
- means for rewriting said readable media tracks in accordance with progressive engine component wear to compensate for same.
An electronic engine timing device for use on camless internal combustion engines having a crank shaft to variably adjust and electronically control engine valve timing in relation to crank shaft position comprises, a disk sensor controller in communication with said engine crank shaft using a rotation ratio of 2 to 1 wherein said crank shaft rotates twice to every one turn of the disk sensor controller having an information disk,
- electronic readable media in said disk sensor controller for detecting an engine valve timing position at any point during its rotation communicating control signals to an engine computer, multiple magnet track sensors on said electronic readable media,
- said control signals including ignition timing, fuel timing and engine valve operation, means for said control signals sent directly to said engine valves or other engine components such as a fuel injector for direct operation thereof, said electronic readable media comprising annular media tracks having encoded electronic engine operational profile information thereon and means for rewriting said annular media tracks.
