Claims
- 1. A 4-cycle engine comprising:
- a magnetic detection member mounted on a non-magnetic cam pulley which is rotated in operative association with a crank pulley, for detecting a plurality of detection portions formed on said magnetic detection member by coils mounted on a cylinder head,
- wherein said magnetic detection member is integrally formed with said plurality of detection portions for different uses in such a manner that distances from the center of rotation of the cam pulley to the plurality of detection portions are different, and wherein said coils are separately mounted in correspondence to said detection portions.
- 2. A 4-cycle engine according to claim 1, wherein said magnetic detection member is subjected to a rust-preventing treatment.
- 3. A 4-cycle engine according to claim 1, wherein said separate coils are disposed at different circumferentially spaced phases.
- 4. A 4-cycle engine according to claim 1, wherein said magnetic detection member is mounted on a surface of said cam pulley which is opposed to said cylinder head.
- 5. A 4-cycle engine according to claim 1, wherein said magnetic detection member is integrally formed with said detection portions.
- 6. A 4-cycle engine according to claim 1, wherein the coil corresponding to the detection portion nearer to the center of rotation of the cam pulley is disposed in an axial direction thereof, and the magnetic detection member located in proximity to said coil is continuous circumferentially.
- 7. A 4-cycle engine according to claim 1, wherein said engine includes an electronically controlled type fuel injection system, and one of the separate coils forms a portion of said electronically controlled type fuel injection system.
- 8. A 4-cycle engine according to claim 1, wherein said engine includes at least two cam pulleys, and said separate coils are mounted in correspondence to one of said pulleys.
- 9. A 4-cycle engine according to claim 1, wherein said engine is a V-type multi-cylinder engine having a pair of banks, at least one cam pulley being provided in each of the banks, said separate coils being mounted in correspondence to at least one of said cam pulleys.
- 10. A 4-cycle engine according to claim 9, wherein said engine includes a plurality of cam pulleys each located at different distances from an upper surface of the bank, and said magnetic detection member is mounted on a lower surface of the cam pulley which is the greatest distance from the upper surface of the bank.
- 11. A 4-cycle engine according to claim 9, wherein said engine includes a plurality of cam pulleys each located at different distances from an upper surface of the bank, and said magnetic detection member is mounted on a lower surface of the cam pulley which is the smallest distance from the upper surface of the bank.
- 12. A 4-cycle engine according to claim 9, wherein a cam pulley mounted in one of said banks and a cam pulley mounted in the other bank have the same shape, except that they are turned inside out from each other.
