In a piston engine, either a timing belt (also called a cambelt) or timing chain or set of timing gears is a perishable component used to synchronize the rotation of the crankshaft and the camshaft. This synchronisation ensures that the engine's valves open and close at the correct times in relation to the position of the pistons.
SOHC design (for a 1973 Triumph Dolomite Sprint) . The oldest configuration of overhead camshaft engine is the single overhead camshaft (SOHC) design. [1] A SOHC engine has one camshaft per bank of cylinders, therefore a straight engine has a total of one camshaft and a V engine or flat engine has a total of two camshafts (one for each cylinder bank).
A camshaft operating two valves. A camshaft is a shaft that contains a row of pointed cams in order to convert rotational motion to reciprocating motion.Camshafts are used in piston engines (to operate the intake and exhaust valves), [1] [2] mechanically controlled ignition systems and early electric motor speed controllers.
The cam can be seen as a device that converts rotational motion to reciprocating (or sometimes oscillating) motion. [clarification needed] [3] A common example is the camshaft of an automobile, which takes the rotary motion of the engine and converts it into the reciprocating motion necessary to operate the intake and exhaust valves of the cylinders.
The informative section in the wiki page Belt (mechanical) points timing belt incorrectly to this camshaft timing belt or cam belt page. Time for a change in the name of this page (or move the content to camshaft timing belt or cam belt with links or disambiguation from here), this change will cause the other changes to follow automatically as ...

The Toyota UZ engine family is a gasoline [1] fueled 32-valve quad-camshaft V8 piston engine series used in Toyota's luxury offerings and sport utility vehicles. [2] Three variants have been produced: the 1UZ-FE, 2UZ-FE, and 3UZ-FE.
What’s more, the full study has not been published or peer-reviewed, meaning the results may change, cardiologist Dr. Dariush Mozaffarian, MD, DrPH, previously told WH. He confirmed that what ...
