The crankshaft is the main rotating part of the engine, which is responsible for transforming the up and down reciprocating motion of the piston into its own Circular motion.
Moreover, the engine speed we usually refer to is the speed of the crankshaft, and the gas pressure on the plug becomes rotational power, which is transmitted to the transmission mechanism of the chassis and drives the valve train and other auxiliary devices.
When the engine is working, the crankshaft bears the effects of gas force, inertia force, and inertia moment. The force is large and complex, and it can withstand the impact of alternating loads. At the same time, the crankshaft is a high-speed rotating component, so it is required to have sufficient stiffness, strength, and balance, good ability to withstand impact loads, good wear resistance and lubrication.
