Abstract
A valve train device includes a shaft having one or more actuation contours for actuating at least one actuation element of a valve of a combustion engine, and the actuation contours being arranged on the shaft so as to rotate therewith. A sensor unit including one or more sensors is provided, and each of the one or more sensors has a spatial sensing area for sensing a physical variable. In at least one axial position, an actuation contour of the one or more actuation contours is arranged at least partially in the spatial sensing area of a sensor of the one or more sensors.
