A piston is a component of reciprocating engines. It is located in a cylinder and is made gas-tight by piston rings. Its purpose is to transfer force from expanding gas in the cylinder to the crankshaft via a piston rod and/or connecting rod. In two-stroke engines the piston also acts as a valve by covering and uncovering ports in the cylinder ...
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 ...
The Volkswagen air-cooled engine is an air-cooled, gasoline -fuelled, boxer engine with four horizontally opposed cast-iron cylinders, cast aluminum alloy cylinder heads and pistons, magnesium -alloy crankcase, and forged steel crankshaft and connecting rods . There are two distinct families/variations of the aircooled engine namely Type 1 and ...
The new fuel-saving engine presented at the 2012 Geneva Motor Show. identification parts code prefix: 04E, ID code: CHYA, CHYB, CHZD, CSEB, DHSB engine displacement & engine configuration
In internal combustion engines, the gudgeon pin (English, wrist pin or piston pin US English) connects the piston to the connecting rod, and provides a bearing for the connecting rod to pivot upon as the piston moves. [ 1] In very early engine designs, including those driven by steam, and many very large stationary or marine engines, the ...
Volvo Engine Architecture. The Volvo Engine Architecture[ 13] ( VEA) is a family of straight-three and straight-four automobile petrol and diesel engines produced by Volvo Cars in Skövde, [ 30] Sweden, since 2013, [ 31] Zhangjiakou, [ 32] China since 2016 [ 33] and Tanjung Malim, Malaysia since 2022 by Proton.

The typical piston design is on the picture. This type of piston is widely used in car diesel engines. According to purpose, supercharging level and working conditions of engines the shape and proportions can be changed. High-power diesel engines work in difficult conditions. Maximum pressure in the combustion chamber can reach 20 MPa and the ...
The Power Stroke is an electronically controlled, direct injection engine with a 4.11 in × 4.18 in (104.4 mm × 106.2 mm) bore and stroke creating a displacement of 444 cu in (7.3 L). It has a 17.5:1 compression ratio, and a dry weight of approximately 920 lb (417 kg).
