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 sentences:
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)

εκκεντροφόρος άξονας
Definition from
4troxoi Magazine:
Εκκεντροφόρος άξονας: Ένας άξονας με πολλά έκκεντρα (λοβούς), τα οποία<br />πιέζουν τα ωστήρια των βαλβίδων μετατρέποντας την περιστροφική κίνηση του<br />άξονα σε παλινδρομική κίνηση των βαλβίδων. Το άνοιγμα και το κλείσιμο των<br />βαλβίδων σε έναν κινητήρα ελέγχεται από έναν ή περισσότερους εκκεντροφόρους<br />άξονες.
Example sentences:
Οι εκκεντροφόροι (στα 16βάλβιδα οχήματα υπάρχουν δύο ενώ στα 8βάλβιδα ένας) ελέγχουν το ύψος ανύψωσης της βαλβίδας, τη διάρκεια ανοιγοκλεισίματος καθώς και τον τρόπο ανοιγοκλεισίματος αφού ανάλογα με τις ανάγκες του κινητήρα μπορεί να είναι ομαλός ή απότομος. (AutoTriti Magazine)
Note from asker:
| No veo mayor complicación, si sabes que es un enema y está claro en el informe, debe ser rectal (siempre hay typos o acrónimos raros). |
| Please provide the original sentence for context and get the language combination correct. |
| Hi! There is no sentence it's just an item on a short invoice. |
