Crankshafts are the main rotating shafts in an internal combustion engine. They convert torque from the engine into rotation and are connected to the flywheel. They have a crank pin and a connecting rod, which is connected to the piston by a connecting rod bolt. The crank pin is fixed at one end, while the other end is attached to the flywheel.
A crankpin is the component of a crankshaft's crank that the connecting rod is fastened to. Crankpins allow the crankshaft and connecting rod to move up and down. A bearing connects the large end of the connecting rod to the crankpin of the crankshaft.
Parts of Crankshaft
Crankpin.
Main journals.
Crank web.
Counterweights.
Thrust washers.
Oil passage and oil seals.
Flywheel mounting flange.
A steam engine is a heat engine that uses steam as its working fluid to produce mechanical work. The steam engine works by pushing a piston back and forth inside a cylinder using the force created by steam pressure. A connecting rod and crank can convert this pushing power into rotational force for work.
Each crankshaft has three primary parts: a journal, crankpin, and crank cheek, regardless of how many throws it has. Although not technically a part of the crankshaft, counterweights and dampers are commonly used to reduce engine vibration.
