  2. Crankset - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crankset

    Cyclists are typically more efficient pedalling cranks with which they have had an adaptation period. Several different formulas exist to calculate appropriate crank length for various riders. In addition to the rider's size, another factor affecting the selection of crank length is the rider's cycling specialty and the type of cycling event.

  3. Q factor (bicycles) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Q_factor_(bicycles)

    Q factor is a function of both the bottom bracket width (axle length) and the cranks. Bottom brackets axles vary in length from 102mm to 127mm. Mountain bike cranks are typically about 20mm wider than road cranks. [6] A larger Q factor (wider tread) will mean less cornering clearance (while pedaling) for the same bottom bracket height and crank ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piston_motion_equations

    For rod length 6" and crank radius 2" (as shown in the example graph below), numerically solving the acceleration zero-crossings finds the velocity maxima/minima to be at crank angles of ±73.17615°. Then, using the triangle law of sines, it is found that the rod-vertical angle is 18.60647° and the crank-rod angle is 88.21738°. Clearly, in ...

  6. Crank (mechanism) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crank_(mechanism)

    According to F. Lisheng and T. Qingjun, the hand-crank of the rotary quern was different from a crank, which was the combination of a hand-crank and a push-and-pull connecting rod by a hinge. [ 7 ] The Antikythera mechanism, dated to around 200 BC, [ 25 ] [ 26 ] used a crank as a part of its mechanism. [ 27 ]

    Crankshaft, pistons and connecting rods for a typical internal combustion engine Marine engine crankshafts from 1942 The crankshaft is located within the engine block and held in place via main bearings which allow the crankshaft to rotate within the block. [3]

  8. Bellcrank - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bellcrank

    Many applications do not change the direction of motion but instead amplify a force "in line", which a bellcrank can do in a limited space. There is a tradeoff between range of motion, linearity of motion, and size. The greater the angle traversed by the crank, the more the motion ratio changes, and the more non-linear the motion becomes.
