Abstract
Provided are a variable valve timing mechanism, an oil pump supplying oil to a hydraulically-actuated device including the variable valve timing mechanism, and a hydraulic control valve which controls oil pressures supplied to a locking mechanism (which includes a locking member configured to fix a phase angle of a camshaft relative to a crankshaft) of the variable valve timing mechanism, an advanced angle chamber and a retarded angle chamber. While an oil pressure in a hydraulic path detected by a hydraulic sensor increases, a hydraulic control valve controller adjusts a degree of opening of a hydraulic control valve according to the detected oil pressure at a time of releasing the locking member from a locking state, to reduce the oil pressure to be supplied to the advanced angle chamber or the retarded angle chamber used to change the phase angle of the camshaft relative to the crankshaft.
