Camshaft of an Engine incorporating a Rocker Arm

The diagram shown above is another typical cam and follower system that could be used in an engine. This system incorporates a rocker arm (shown in blue in the image). In this case the motion the cam imparts on the follower is translated to the valve through a push rod amd the rocker arm.
