What are the main components of the piston connecting rod assembly?
1 Answers
The piston connecting rod assembly mainly consists of the piston, piston rings, piston pin, connecting rod, and connecting rod bearing. The piston connecting rod assembly converts the reciprocating motion of the piston into the rotational motion of the crankshaft, while transforming the force acting on the piston into the torque output by the crankshaft to drive the vehicle's wheels. It serves as the transmission component of the engine, transmitting the pressure of the combustion gases to the crankshaft, causing the crankshaft to rotate and output power. Precautions for using the piston connecting rod assembly include: 1. Check the directionality of the piston and connecting rod before assembly; 2. Use special tools or heat to 60 degrees when installing the piston pin; 3. Pay attention to the cylinder markings when disassembling and installing the piston, and make marks if there are no existing markings.
