  3. Piston motion equations - Wikipedia

    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 ...

  4. Stroke ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stroke_ratio

    The large size/width of the combustion chamber at ignition can cause increased inhomogeneity in the air/fuel mixture during combustion, resulting in higher emissions. The reduced stroke length allows for a shorter cylinder and sometimes a shorter connecting rod, generally making oversquare engines less tall but wider than undersquare engines of ...

  5. Slider-crank linkage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slider-crank_linkage

    For this case, the crank arm will be referred to as L 2, and the follower link will be referred to as L 3. With all in-line slider-crank mechanisms, the stroke is twice the length of the crank arm. Therefore, given the stroke, the length of the crank arm can be determined. This relationship is represented as: L 2 = (ΔR 4) max ÷ 2

  6. Undercut crankshaft - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Undercut_crankshaft

    An undercut crankshaft is a form of crankshaft for piston engines, where the overall length of the crankshaft is shortened by overlapping the main bearings of the crankshaft with the big end bearings of the connecting rods. Crankshaft close-up Note the tight spacing of the connecting rod between the crankshaft webs in the 3rd cylinder from the ...

  7. Quick return mechanism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quick_return_mechanism

    The durability of the machine is related to the size of the arm and the velocity of the disc, where the arm might not be flexible enough to handle a certain speed. Creating a graphical layout for a quick return mechanism involves all inversions and motions, which is useful in determining the dimensions for a functioning mechanism. [ 2 ]

  8. Crossplane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crossplane

    The most common crossplane crankshaft for a 90° V8 engine has four crankpins, each serving two cylinders on opposing banks, offset at 90° from the adjacent crankpins.The first and last of the four crank pins are at 180° with respect to each other as are the second and third, with each pair at 90° to the other, so that viewed from the end the crankshaft forms a cross.

  9. Bellcrank - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bellcrank

    A bellcrank is a type of crank that changes motion through an angle. The angle can range from 0 to 360 degrees, but 90-degree and 180-degree bellcranks are most common. The name comes from its first use, changing the vertical pull on a rope to a horizontal pull on the striker of a bell to sound it.
