Abstract

Generally in automobile, as a cam and follower, camshaft and valve is used. The valve and the cam come in contact at a flat surface. Because of this flat surface contact friction and wearing takes place. There are different types of followers like knife edge, roller, flat type followers, but in all these types more friction and wearing takes place. So in concern to this friction and wearing issue, Single groove cam with ball point type follower design is presented. In this design of follower lubrication of follower will be there continuously and due to that heat generation, friction, wearing will be lesser comparatively from other followers. In this ball type follower, a ball pen kind of mechanism would be there. As a result wearing and friction will be lesser on cam and cam grooves comparatively to flat surface.
