Abstract

See full text

In controlling valve motions of an internal combustion engine, after determining that engine braking operation has been initiated, a deactivation mechanism disposed within a main valve train is activated thereby disabling conveyance of main valve events from a main valve motion source to a valve via the main valve train. Engine braking valve events are enabled for the valve, which may include two-stroke engine braking. Coupling mechanisms, including one-way coupling mechanisms, between adjacent rocker arms may be used in this manner.
