The conrod converts the reciprocating (往复式 ) movement of the piston into rotary motion. Moreover, the conrod transfers forces from the piston to the crankshaft. 2.1 Overview Working Condition: Directly exposed to gas with high temperature and pressure inside the cylinder The inertia (惯性力) of the moving masses is relatively big due to high engine speed Corrosion (腐蚀) problem brought by high temperature exhaust gas Lack of lubrication (润滑). Component: Engine block (机体组) Piston-rod (活塞连杆组) Shaft-flywheel (曲柄飞轮组) 4 同济大学汽车学院 Working Condition: High Temperature (up to 2500K) High Pressure (5~9MPa) High Speed (3000~6000r/min )(100~200 stroke/s) Chemical Corrosion (Cylinder, Cylinder head, Piston Components) Loading: Load under high pressure and variable motion, consist of gas force, inertia force, friction (摩擦), and other resistances 2.2 Crank and Connecting Rod Mechanism (曲柄连杆组原理) 5 同济大学汽车学院 2.2.1 Gas forces Working Stroke(做功冲程) Fp PistonFp1、Fp2 Fp1conrodFR、FS。 FS Torque on crankrotation Fp2Lateral Pressure (侧压力) Supported by engine block Compression Stroke(压缩冲程) F’p F’p1、F’p2 F’p1 R’,S’ R’ Packing Force; S’ anti-torque T’, F’p2 Lateral Pressure 6 同济大学汽车学院 2.2.2 Inertia(惯性力) and centrifugal(离心力) Force Inertia force: Generated during the linear reciprocating motion of piston(活塞), and Small-end eye(连杆小头) Changing law of piston velocity(from TDC to BDC): 0~accelerate~maximun~deccelerate~0 Piston moving downwards: Accelerate the first half stroke, direction of inertia force points up Decelerate the second half stroke, direction of inertia force points down Centrifugal force: Generated during rotation of crank(曲柄), and big-end eye(连杆大头) Determined by crank radius, rotation mass, and engine speed Larger mass of piston and connecting rod leads to bigger inertia force and centrifugal force, which would increase the vibration of engine and periodic load on components and bearing, which cause abrasion (磨损)and deformation( 变形). 7 同济大学汽车学院 Application Mass Material Mass production truck diesel 1.6 to 5 kg Forged Steel(锻钢) Mass production passenger car gasoline engine 0.4 to 1 kg Forged Steel, gray casting(灰铸铁), sintered steel(烧结钢) Sport use 0.4 to 0.7 kg Steel, titanium Racing engine/F1 0.3 to 0.4 kg Titanium, carbon fiber Compressor 0.2 to 0.6 kg Aluminum 2.2.2 Inertia(惯性力) and centrifugal(离心力) Force Conrod Masses for Various Applications 8 同济大学汽车学院 The primary functions that the engine block fulfills are: • Absorbing the gas and mass forces in the crankshaft bearings (衬套) and at the cylinder head bolts. • Accepting the energy conversion assembly, comprising the pistons, conrods, crankshaft, and flywheel. • Carrying the crankshaft and (only rarely today) the camshaft(凸轮轴) • Accepting channels to convey operating media, primarily lubricants and coolant. Because of the variety of functions to be carried out, the engine block is subjected to differing types of loads that are superimposed one upon another. The engine block is the component that encloses the cylinders, the crankshaft, the cylinder head, and the head gasket (气缸垫). 2.3 Engine Block(机体组) 9 同济大学汽车学院 曲轴箱 Crankcase 气缸体 Engine block 气缸垫 气缸盖 Head gasket Cylinder head 气缸 Cylinder 油道和水道 Oil and coolant channels 油底壳 Oil pan 气缸盖罩 Cylinder head cover

Page 2 10 同济大学汽车学院 • Cylinder block consist of cylinder and upper half of crankshaft, and is usually made of gray casting. • It transporting the coolant (冷却液) through cavities (腔) and channels contained in the engine block in liquid-cooled engines. • Reinforcing rib (加强肋板)could be found on the cylinder block because the block is exposed to tensile (拉力) and compression loading, bending, and torsion (扭转) as a result of mass and gas forces. 2.3.1 Cylinder Block(气缸体) 11 同济大学汽车学院 The main bearing pedestal (轴承座) area in engine blocks is the area around the crankshaft bearings. The forces acting on the crankshaft bearings have to be taken up hear. Cylinder blocks are divided into three types: • Oil pan flange (油底壳) level with the center of the crankshaft (left) Most widely used mass-production version with favorable manufacturing costs, however, less stiffness and less favorable acoustic properties • Oil pan flange below the center of the crankshaft (middle) Have the benefits of stiffness and acoustic properties, lack of manufacturability . • The “tunnel” type (right) Have the best stiffness of the three type, lack of manufacturability, hard at crank dismounting, not widely used 2.3.1 Cylinder Block(气缸体) 12 同济大学汽车学院 • Water cooling With just a very exceptions today’s automotive engines are water cooled. The cylinders are surrounded by a water-filled cavity, the water jacket or cooling jacket • Air cooling Heat dissipation in air-cooled cylinders is dependent upon the thermal conductivity of the cylinder fins ,shape of cooling fins, and the way in which cooling air passes across the fins, hardly used today 2.3.2 Cylinder Cooling and Arrangements(缸体冷却及排列形式) • Cylinder arrangement Common cylinder arrangements are from 1 to 6 cylinders inline(单列式) or from 2 to 16 cylinders in V-formation(V型 ). Flat engines(对置式) – like a V design flattened out – are common in small airplanes and motorcycles and were a hallmark of Volkswagen automobiles into the 1990s. Flat 6s are still used in many modern Porsches, as well as Subarus. Many flat engines are air-cooled. Less common, but notable in vehicles designed for high speeds is the W formation, similar to having 2 V engines side by side. 13 同济大学汽车学院 • Wet Cylinder (right) Wet cylinders are slid into the engine block, mating with mounting areas machined and prepared accordingly Advantage: Freedom in selecting material for sleeve, simple interchangeability and repairs Disadvantage: higher manufacturing costs • Dry Cylinder (left) Dry sleeves are pressed, shrink fit, or cast in place in the engine block. The sleeves are inserted in the engine block mold, and the molten aluminum alloy is cast around them Advantage: Easy repair option by reaming out to oversize dimensions, separate manufacture of cylinder funning surface, and the option for combining sleeves with an engine block made of a different aluminum alloy, lower cost Disadvantage: poorer heat transfer between the cylinder running surface and the water jacket 2.3.3 Cylinder Sleeves(汽缸套) 14 同济大学汽车学院 • Great importance is attached to cylinder head design and engineering during engine development. The cylinder head determines, like no other subassembly in the engine, operating properties such as performance level, toque, exhaust emissions, fuel consumption, and acoustic properties (声学性能) 2.4 Cylinder Head(气缸盖) 气缸盖罩 Cylinder head cover 气缸盖 Cylinder head 气缸垫 Head gasket 衬垫 Cover gasket 安装火花塞 Spark plug mounting 15 同济大学汽车学院 Cylinder head provide most part of the combustion chamber in SI engines (点燃式发动机), hence plays a important role in engine performance. Combustion chamber for SI engines are usually divided into three types • Hemispheric: Compact structure with spark plug placed in the middle of combustion chamber. Combustion rate is higher, which leads to higher thermo efficiency. Widely used in automotive engines • Pentroof: Simple structure with less heat loss, easy to generate tumble (滚流) during compression stroke, higher volumetric efficiency. However, spark plug is placed at top of combustion chamber, therefore, combustion rate is less higher than hemispheric type • Basin shaped: Better manufacturability, lower cost 2.4.1 Combustion Chamber(燃烧室) 16 同济大学汽车学院 The head gasket is becoming more important in modern engines. • Function: Sealing off combustion chamber, cooling system, and oil passages, serves to transmit forces between the cylinder head and the engine block. Exerts considerable influence on force distribution within the entire assembly system • Type: Ferrolastic(铁弹体), metal(金属), metaloflex layered(多层金属) 2.4.2 Head Gasket and Oil Pan(汽缸垫及油底壳) The oil supply for passenger car engines today is provided almost exclusively with a wet sump lubrication design. In such engines the oil pan forms the bottom termination for the engine block. Function: • Serve as a container to receive motor oil and as the collecting basin for oil returning from bearings and lubrication points • Enclosing the crankcase and serving to stiffen the engine and transmission assembly • Taking threads for oil drain plug and dipstick guide tube, usually equipped with magnet to absorb metal filing 17 同济大学汽车学院 • Function: Accepting the pressures created by combustion Transferring forces via the wristpin and the connecting rod to the crankshaft Providing guidance for the small conrod eye (连杆小头) • Requirements for the piston: High static and dynamic strength at high temperatures, little plastic deformation (弹性形变) Low weight, resulting in small inertial forces Low friction resistance, high wear resistance (耐磨性能) Low noise, no “piston slapping” with engine cold and warm 2.5 Piston-Rod Assemblies(活塞连杆组) 18 同济大学汽车学院 • Piston crown is the lower half of combustion chamber, and is directly exposed to gas forces. The shape and size of piston crown strongly affect the mixture formation (混合气 形成) and combustion process • The shape of piston crown could be divided into for types: flat coping piston, convex coping piston, concave coping piston and model piston • Piston head refers to the part from the first piston groove (活塞环槽) to the wristpin. Three or four grooves are machined into each piston for positioning the compressions rings (气环) and oil rings (油环) 2.5.1 Piston Crown and Piston Head(活塞顶及活塞头)

Page 3 19 同济大学汽车学院 • Piston Skirt refers to the part from oil ring groove to the bottom of the piston • Function: Used to guide the piston within the cylinder. Transfers to the cylinder wall, in sliding fashion, the lateral forces occurring because of the deflection (偏移) of the conrod. With sufficient skirt length and close guidance the so-called “piston slapping”, occurring at the moment when contact shifts from the one side of the piston to the opposite side, is kept to a minimum. This is important for smooth engine running and to reduce wear at all the piston’s sliding surfaces. 2.5.2 Piston Skirt(活塞裙) 20 同济大学汽车学院 • In order to compensate with varies type of skirt deformation, stricture of piston skirt is complicated: Oval-shaped (椭圆形) (radial) Ladder or corn shaped (axial)(Fig.2) Slotting near the piston skirt (Fig.3) Cutting off part of skirt which is not subjected to force ( less weight, suitable for higher engine speed) (Fig.4) Bimetallic Piston (双金属活塞) 2.5.3 Piston Skirt Structure Fig.2 Fig.3 Fig.4 Fig.1 21 同济大学汽车学院 • Axially offsetting (轴向偏心) in the direction of pressure (direction in which the piston contacts the cylinder barrel (气缸筒) in the expansion stroke) causes an earlier contact change for the piston when the normal force on the piston is weaker. • The tilting (倾斜) movement of the piston causes it to first contact the cylinder with the “soft” bottom part (piston skirt), which reduces impact, therefore reduce noise. 2.5.3 Piston Skirt Structure 22 同济大学汽车学院 • Piston rings are metallic gaskets whose functions are to seal the combustion chamber against the crankcase (曲轴箱), to transmit heat from the piston to the cylinder wall (70%~80%), and to regulate the amount of oil present on the cylinder sleeve, a function of the oil control ring in particular. 2.5.4 Piston Ring (活塞环) • Loading, Damage, Wear, Friction and materials for Piston Ring Piston rings are loaded by outward stresses when installed, the outward stress is equal to the strain imparted when the ring is passed over the cylinder. Dynamic loading occurs in addition an axial motion of the piston ring caused by the interactions of gas, mass, and friction forces, which leads to ring chatter and vibration. Extraordinarily high loading on the ring can arise from soot (积碳) collecting Materials: cast iron(铸铁) with flaked graphite(片状石墨), cast iron with spheroidal graphite(球状石墨), steel Compression ring Oil ring 23 同济大学汽车学院 • Pumping effect : Rectangular Compression ring will deliver lubrication oil into the cylinder during oscillating movement Increase consumption of lubrication oil Wet the spark plug Increase the deposit inside the cylinder and the piston ring groove Intensify wear and tear of the compression ring 2.5.4 Piston Ring (活塞环) 24 同济大学汽车学院 2.5.4 Piston Ring (活塞环) • Compression Rings Close contact with both cylinder wall and the flank ( 侧面) of the groove machined into the piston Cylinder wall contact—spring action inherent to the ring itself Ring groove contact– gas pressure in the combustion chamber Two rings for SI engines, three rings for CI engines for higher cylinder pressure Types of compression rings: Rectangular ring(矩形 环), Bevel ring(锥面环), ring with inside shoulder(twist beveled ring)(扭曲环), double trapezoid ring(梯形环), spheroid casting ring(桶面 环) 25 同济大学汽车学院 • Oil Control Rings • Oil control rings are of particular significance in managing the engine’s oil supply and consumption; they are subdivided into the following: • Self-expanded cast iron rings (control action in high-speed engines and as the only oil control ring on a piston) • Spring-expanded and spring-backed oil control rings (manufactured as castings, for gasoline and diesel engines) 2.5.4 Piston Ring (活塞环) 26 同济大学汽车学院 • Functions: The wristpin makes the connection between the piston and the connecting rod. It is subjected to the extreme, alternating loads exerted by the pressure of the exploding gas and the mass inertias. The lubrication situation is unfavorable because of the rotary motions between the piston and the wristpin and between the wrist pin and the conrod. • Designs: The wristpin with cylindrical inside and outside contours has been successful in most applications. To reduce weight and the mass inertias, the out ends of the wristpins’ inside bore may be conical (圆锥形) since the load is less there. Wristpins in passenger car gasoline engines are often held in the conrod with a tension due to shrinkage (收缩) (shrink wristpin). In more heavily loaded gasoline and diesel engines, the wristpin “floats” in the conrod. It is secured with circlips (t 弹簧挡圈) to keep it from wandering laterally and out of the piston 2.5.5 Wristpins(活塞销) 27 同济大学汽车学院 • The connecting rod has two so-called conrod ends. • It is at the small conrod eye (连杆小头) that the connection to the piston is made by the wristpin. • The split, large connecting rod eye (连杆大头) is located at the crankshaft end of the rod. Proper functioning is ensured with a sliding bearing and by fixing and screwing down the conrod bearing cap (轴承盖). • The connecting rod shaft joins the two connecting rod eyes. This section may have a special cross section depending on the requirements ,e.g.,I shaped or H shaped. • Depending on the particulars of the application and the resultant loads, a number of different materials may be used for connecting rods: Cast iron (铸铁) , Forging steel (锻钢), Powdered metal (金属粉末成型) and alternate materials such as carbon fiber reinforced aluminum or carbon fiber reinforced plastic. 2.5.6 Connecting Rod (Conrod)(连杆)

It could also be split at an angle to reduce the maximum width of the conrod • Conrod fracture splitting (连杆大头胀断) describes the separation of the conrod web and the cap by breaking the latter away during processing: Reducing the number of processing steps Secured against relative movement with the irregular surfaces Eliminating the need for any additional guide elements Easy matching for multi-cylinder engines 2.5.6 Connecting Rod (Conrod) 29 同济大学汽车学院 • The shafts found in multi-cylinder reciprocating engines generally run in plain bearings. The reasons for selecting this type include their great ability to withstand shock and their damping properties, easy division for assembly around the crankshaft, low space requirements, insensitivity to grime (污垢) , and, last but not least, the low costs when compared with rolling bearings (滚动轴承). However, it has higher friction level and the resulting greater oil requirements. 2.5.7 Conrod bearing shell(连杆轴瓦) • Material: Babbit metals(巴氏合金) Aluminum Alloys Copper Alloys 30 同济大学汽车学院 Crankshaft Drive (曲轴) •Function: Crankshaft drive is a functional group that not only efficiently transforms oscillating movement(backforth movement) into rotary movement, but is also excellent at converting thermodynamic processes to yield the maximum work, efficiency, and technical feasibility. These advantages are gained at cost of serious disadvantages: Limitation of speed due to free inertia Uneven force transmission Great deal of stress on the crankshaft and high fluctuations Tribological (摩擦学)problems 2.6 Crank Shaft-Fly Wheel Assemblies(曲轴飞轮组) 31 同济大学汽车学院 • The crankshaft drive in automotive engines consists of pistons with rings, piston pins, conrods, a crankshaft with countermass, crank shaft main bearing, and the lubricant 2.6 Shaft-Fly Wheel Assemblies(曲轴飞轮组) 32 同济大学汽车学院 • Function: The piston’s linear movements are converted, with intervention of the conrod, into rotational movement at the crank, thus making torque available for use at the wheels • Loadings: Because of the stains involving forces that change in both time and location, with rotational and flexural (弯曲) torques and the resulting excitation for vibrations, the crankshaft is subject to very high, very complex loads • Components: Crankshaft front end(1), Crankshaft main journal(2), crank pin(3), crank(4), countermass(5),back-end crank(6) • Number of crank pins determines the number of cylinders 2.6.1 Crankshaft(曲轴) 33 同济大学汽车学院 • Crankshaft could be divided into types by different support pattern, the fullsupported crankshaft and partlysupported crankshaft • The Full-supported type has a better stiffness and bending strength, therefore is used widely in heavy duty engines. However, finished surfaces and number of main bearings of this type of Crankshaft is more than that of the partly-supported type, and the length of engine would also be longer 2.6.2 Crankshaft support pattern(曲轴支承方式) 34 同济大学汽车学院 • Mass balancing is the compensation of imbalances due to construction. The rotating inertial force (惯性力) can be balanced by countermasses (配重) where the static torque of the rotating masses and the balancing masses must correspond. 2.6.3 Mass Balancing (平衡重) Fig.1 Force balance (受力平衡) Fig. 2 Mass balance (设置平衡重) • It is shown in Fig.1 that the force on the crankshaft has balanced with each other, but the torque couple M1-2 and M3-4 generate bending load to the crankshaft. Therefore, countermasses are employed to improve the loading condition of the crankshaft • Countermasses would increase the total mass of crankshaft, therefore increase the centrifugal force and rotating inertial force, which would put more stress on bearing shells 35 同济大学汽车学院 • To obtain a very even torque characteristic, the ignition of the individual cylinders must be evenly distributed over the power cycle. A requirement is that the throws (曲拐) must be evenly distributed over the perimeter (周长). Hence, the following throw spacing results: Four-stroke engines:720°crankshaft/cylinder number • The firing sequence is also determined by the direction of rotation of the crankshaft. Other factors for the firing sequence are: No or very small free inertial effects Favorable rotational oscillation behavior Good supercharging conditions • Take a inline four-cylinder engine for example, favorable firing sequence could be 1-2-4-3 or 1-3-4-2 2.6.4 Throw and Firing Sequences(曲柄及气缸发火顺序) 36 同济大学汽车学院 2.6.4 Throw and Firing Sequences(曲柄及气缸发火顺序)
2&4 hrow and Firing5 equnnon国要气t大房 2.5.6Flymhoob( 惑购 5 的凡冷大写 窗凡冷大复 Page 5
Page 5 37 同济大学汽车学院 • Another example for a V8-engine, throw spacing is 720 ° /8=90 ° • Two cylinders at the same role share the same crank • Firing sequence is 1-8-4-3-6-5-7-2 2.6.4 Throw and Firing Sequences(曲柄及气缸发火顺序) 38 同济大学汽车学院 • Without damping, the excursions of the crank shaft would become increasingly larger until the shaft breaks, therefore, additional measures must be taken, and the only possibility is to reduce the rotational oscillations to a sage level, there are basically two options for this: Damping(减幅) and Absorption(吸收). • The effect of vibration dampers are based on both damping and absorbing. They are designed to continuously reduce rotational oscillation excursions of the system. • For passenger car engines, rubber vibration dampers are used: the vibration energy is converted by the material damping of the rubber into heat. Two stage dampers are also used in which two damper masses are tuned to two different frequencies. • The dampers not only relieve the crankshaft and camshaft mechanically, but also reduce the play-induced noise of the engine. 2.6.5 Torsion vibration damper(扭转减震器) 39 同济大学汽车学院 • A flywheel is a rotating mechanical device that is used to store rotational energy. It has a significant moment of inertia and thus resists changes in rotational speed. It is often used to provide continuous energy in systems where the energy source is not continuous. • It is used to maintain constant angular velocity of the crankshaft in a reciprocating engine. In this case, the flywheel stores energy when torque is exerted on it by a firing piston, and it releases energy to its mechanical loads when no piston is exerting torque on it, therefore enhance the distribution of the rotation speed and torque output. • Drives the actuator(驱动件) of the clutch(离合器 ) • Flywheels have ring gear at the outer rim of the wheels and is geared with starting motor to start the engine 2.6.6 Flywheels(飞轮)
