2. Connecting rod - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Connecting_rod

   A connecting rod, also called a 'con rod', [1] [2] [3] is the part of a piston engine which connects the piston to the crankshaft. Together with the crank, the connecting rod converts the reciprocating motion of the piston into the rotation of the crankshaft. [4] The connecting rod is required to transmit the compressive and tensile forces from ...

3. Slider-crank linkage - Wikipedia

   Then, using the triangle sine law, it is found that the crank to connecting rod angle is 88.21832° and the connecting rod angle is 18.60639° from vertical (see Piston motion equations#Example). When the crank is driven by the connecting rod, a problem arises when the crank is at top dead centre (0°) or bottom dead centre (180°).

4. Crankshaft - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crankshaft

   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] The up-down motion of each piston is transferred to the crankshaft via connecting ...

5. Steam locomotive components - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steam_locomotive_components

   Connecting rod / Main rod Steel arm that converts the reciprocating motion of the piston into a rotary motion of the driving wheels. The connection between piston and main rod is a crosshead, which slides on a horizontal bar behind the cylinder. [2] [5] [3]: 55 Piston rod Connects the piston to the cross-head. [2] [3]: 61 Piston

6. Return connecting rod engine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Return_connecting_rod_engine

   A return connecting rod, [1] [2] return piston rod [i] or (in marine parlance) double piston rod engine [2] or back-acting engine is a particular layout for a steam engine. The key attribute of this layout is that the piston rod emerges from the cylinder to the crosshead , but the connecting rod then reverses direction and goes backwards to the ...

7. 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 ±73.17530°. Then, using the triangle law of sines, it is found that the rod-vertical angle is 18.60639° and the crank-rod angle is 88.21832°. Clearly, in ...

9. Crank (mechanism) - Wikipedia

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

   Attached to the end of the crank by a pivot is a rod, usually called a connecting rod (conrod). The term often refers to a human-powered crank which is used to manually turn an axle, as in a bicycle crankset or a brace and bit drill. In this case a person's arm or leg serves as the connecting rod, applying reciprocating force to the crank.
