Hi friends,
Ever wondered of a crank shaft?
Well this is a single one piece casting or a forged part.The material is heat treated alloy steel.The crankshafts may be unbalanced.So to balance them we usually place dead weights also called as counter weights.The crankshafts of some V6 engines have crank pins which have spread out.It is also called as a splayed crank pin.This crank pin is split in two parts.To balance out-balance conditions each rod is provided with its own crank pin.
The front end is connected with Gear or sprocket which drive
1.Camshaft
2.The pulley which is actually belt driven and
3.Vibration Damper.
While the output side is as usual attached with a flywheel.
Usually an engine which is accommodated with electronic engine control or simply EEC has a timing disc mounted on crankshaft.
I think I have already explained the use of sensors as to how the ignition system knows about piston positions
So great studying.And please do correct me wherever I am wrong.Ciao
