What is the Crank Connecting Rod Mechanism Composed Of?
1 Answers
The crank connecting rod mechanism is composed of three parts: the engine block group, the piston connecting rod group, and the crankshaft flywheel group. Engine block group: The engine block is the framework of the engine and serves as the installation base for various mechanisms and systems of the engine. It houses all the main components and accessories of the engine, both internally and externally, and bears various loads. Therefore, the engine block must have sufficient strength and rigidity. Piston connecting rod group: The function of the piston is to form the combustion chamber together with the cylinder head and cylinder wall, and to withstand the gas pressure in the cylinder. The force is transmitted to the connecting rod through the piston pin to drive the rotation of the crankshaft. Crankshaft flywheel group: The crankshaft is one of the important components of the engine. Its function is to convert the gas force transmitted from the piston connecting rod group into the rotational torque of the crankshaft for external output, and to drive the valve mechanism and other auxiliary devices of the engine.
