English term or phrase: camshaft
Definition from The Auto glossary.com:
A tubular metal shaft that rotates in an engine and features cam lobes that control the intake and exhaust valves. The camshaft is located within the engine block in overhead valve engines, and is located just above the cylinder head in overhead cam engines. Most engines have one camshaft, but a V-shaped (e.g., V6 or V8) single overhead cam engine will have two. An inline (e.g., a non-V-shaped 6-cylinder) dual overhead cam engine also will have two camshafts, while a V-shaped dohc engine will have four cams.

Example sentence(s):
  • Be aware that when using cams with greater than .430 inches of lift on some solid lifter heads, it may become necessary to clearance grind each side of the lifter bores to prevent camshaft interference with the cylinder head casting. Autotech
  • Overhead camshaft (OHC) valvetrain configurations place the camshaft within the cylinder heads, above the combustion chambers, and drive the valves or lifters directly instead of using pushrods. Answers.com
  • Over the last several years we have witnessed a decline in "stock" camshaft replacement, most everyone has moved toward custom camshafts grinds. Delta Camshaft

bregasta osovina


Definition from own experience or research:
Šuplja metalna osovina koja rotira u motoru i koju karakteriše bregove za kontrolu usisnih i izduvnih ventila. Bregasta osovina je locirana u glavi cilindra za ventile.

Example sentence(s):
  • Ali veliki proizvodjači automobila i dalje eksperimentišu sa njima, pokušavajući da ih učine efikasnijim. Jedna od komponenti benzinskog motora na koju otpada dobar deo korisne snage jeste bregasta osovina, čija funkcija je otvaranje i zatvaranje ventila u tačno odredjenom trenutku. Kada ne bi morao da savladjuje taj otpor, motor iste zapremine bio bi znatno efikasniji, odnosno za istu snagu trošio bi manje goriva. Zbog toga, nekoliko proizvodjača automobila uveliko eksperimentiše sa motorom čije ventile kontrolišu električni magneti, takozvani solenoidi. - Voice of America  
  • Od ranije znamo da bregasta kontrolise rad usisnih i izduvnih ventila i to cini preko specijalnih ‘bregova’ koji se nalaze duz nje. Oni su specijalno postavljeni tako da se ne moze desiti da i usisni i izduvni ventil budu istovremeno otvoreni. Bregasta osovina je povezana i ima uskladjen rad sa radilicom, koja regulise rad klipova, i time svodimo verovatnocu da dodje do desinhronizacije izmedju pozicije klipova i ventila na nulu! Do sada su se u svetu proizvodile iskljucivo fiksne bregaste osovine. - Automobilizam
