The invention relates to a camshaft adjusting device (1) for an internal combustion engine and to a method for producing a camshaft adjusting device having a stator wheel (10) and a rotor wheel (11), wherein the rotor wheel (11) has a first body part (19) and a second body part (20), wherein a joining surface (19a) of the first body part (19) and a joining surface (20a) of the second body part (20) are joined to one another, and wherein depressions (21, 22) are formed in at least one of the joining surfaces (19a, 20a) in order to form the fluid ducts (17, 18) at least in sections. In order to provide a camshaft adjusting device (1) with an improved rotor wheel (11), which is formed from two body parts (19, 20), which can be joined to one another in an improved manner, a provision according to the invention is that at least one sealing means (25, 26) be provided in or on at least one joining surface (19a, 20a) with the sealing means being designed such that the fluid ducts (17, 18) are sealed off and that defined contact is obtained between the joining surfaces (19a, 20a), which are placed on top of one another.
A camshaft adjusting device for an internal combustion engine with a stator wheel and a rotor wheel functioning together with the stator wheel, wherein the stator wheel is driven so as to rotate around an axis of rotation, and wherein the rotor wheel can be connected to a camshaft of the internal combustion engine, wherein the stator wheel has stator vanes arranged so as to point radially inward, between which rotor blades extend, and the rotor blades are arranged on the rotor wheel pointing radially outward, such that fluid chambers are formed between the stator vanes and the rotor blades, which can be exposed to pressurized fluid through fluid ducts, and wherein the rotor wheel has a first body part and a second body part, which are joined to one another with the respective joining surfaces placed together, and wherein depressions are placed in at least one of the joining surfaces, in order to form the fluid ducts, at least in sections,
