Summary: | The present invention relates to an internal combustion engine operating on spark-ignitible fuel, featuring at least one operating mode with homogeneous charge and self-ignition, and comprising at least one intake valve and at least one exhaust valve per cylinder, which intake and exhaust valves may be coupled via a transmission device in at least one operating mode of the engine. The combustion process may be controlled in a simple manner by providing that at least one exhaust valve can be actuated during the intake stroke by means of the transmission device, said transmission device having at least one first mechanical transmission member, and that the transmission device can be activated by a mechanical actuating device, said actuating device featuring an eccentric element acting on a transmission member. |
