Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a sliding cam system for an internal combustion engine. The sliding cam system has a camshaft and a plurality of cam carriers with in each case at least two cams, the plurality of cam carriers being arranged fixedly on the camshaft so as to rotate with it and in an axially displaceable manner. The sliding cam system has a plurality of fluid-actuated actuator apparatuses which are configured in each case for axially displacing a cam carrier of the plurality of cam carriers. The sliding cam system has a fluid feed apparatus which is provided for feeding a fluid in a fluidic connection upstream of the plurality of actuator apparatuses for actuating the plurality of actuator apparatuses. At least two actuator apparatuses of the plurality of actuator apparatuses are coupled fluidically for simultaneous actuation.
