A harmonic balancer (sometimes called crankshaft damper, torsional damper, or vibration damper) is the same thing as a harmonic damper except that the balancer includes a counterweight to externally balance the rotating assembly. The harmonic balancer often serves as a pulley for the accessory drive belts turning the alternator, water pump and ...
Some engines, such as GM's Premium V family, use crank position sensors which read a reluctor ring integral to the harmonic balancer. This is a much more accurate method of determining the position of the crankshaft and allows the computer to determine, within a few degrees, the exact position of the crankshaft (and thereby all connected ...
Balance shaft in Ford Taunus V4 engine.. Balance shafts are used in piston engines to reduce vibration by cancelling out unbalanced dynamic forces. The counter balance shafts have eccentric weights and rotate in opposite direction to each other, which generates a net vertical force.
Timing mark on pulley at 6° before TDC.. A timing mark is an indicator used for setting the timing of the ignition system of an engine, typically found on the crankshaft pulley (as pictured) or the flywheel. [1]
The TX750 is a two-cylinder standard motorcycle built by Yamaha.The bike was released in 1972. Significant reliability problems affected the engines in early bikes. Yamaha made several changes to solve the problems but the bike was withdrawn from most markets after 1974 and production stopped in the home market after 1975.
Another bike that was performance-oriented was the Yamaha RX-Z, introduced in 1985 as a two-stroke naked sport bike, related to the Yamaha RX-135 and Yamaha RD-135, borrowing its chassis and platform. Originally equipped with a five speed transmission and a solid front disc brake rotor with rear drum brakes, it was popular in Malaysia and ...
However a static balancer can only correct in one plane, so its accuracy is limited. A blade balancing machine attempts to balance a part in assembly, so minimal correction is required later on. Blade mass balancing is typically done for short blades, while long blades may require moment weighing in one or two axes.
First in Europe, the naked FZ1-N and half-faired FZ1-S Fazer were replaced by the FZ-10/MT-10 of Yamaha's new ″Hyper Naked″ class, which is available with accessory touring pack. [ 3 ] [ 4 ] 2006-2014 models are known for rotor failure; the magnets delaminate which can cause catastrophic engine damage.
