The box solenoid valve makes the rotor advance or delay openings to communicate with the
oil channels in the engine head through two holes (1, 2). A hole conveys the pressure oil to set
the rotor blade moving, whereas the other is made to communicate with the drain (3) by the
solenoid valve. Therefore, each of holes 1 and 2 ( 1, 2 ) will always act an in inlet (in the
direction of the variator) and an outlet (in the direction of the head, respectively, depending on
whether the phase is to be delayed or advanced by the engine control unit.
The following figures (a, b, c, d) illustrate the section that makes the solenoid valve and the
