Summary:The invention relates to a connectable bucket tappet for a valve drive of an internal combustion engine, having a ring shaped section which has a skirt for oscillatory mounting in a holder of an internal combustion engine and, in its bore, accommodates a circular section such that it can move axially, it being possible for the two sections to be coupled to each other in at least one axial displacement position in relation to each other via at least one slider which can be displaced radially or in the manner of a secant and which runs in the circular section in the uncoupled state, holders for the slider being provided in the region of bases of the sections and an outer surface of the circular section being enclosed by at least one compression spring which, at one end, acts against the base of the ring shaped section and, and the other end, acts against a support of the circular section which is remote from the base. A connectable bucket tappet having a ring shaped section and avoiding a receiving element for a coupling device which was previously joined thereto in a single piece. A separate, sleeve-shaped component is arranged near the base of the ring shaped section. The component is used for sectionally accommodating a slider for coupling the ring shaped section to a central circular section.
