What is the relation between the movement of the piston and the movement of the crankshaft?
In essence, the the displacement of the piston is porportional to the sine of the phase of the crankshaft. this isn't quite true but it gives a rough idea of what is happening. if you meant what happens in one cycle of a piston/crankshaft then it is essentially this: as the piston moves down it forces the crankshaft through one half of a revolution and then on the way back up the piston forces the crankshaft through the remaining half of a revolution - back to its start position to start again

What is the purpose of the crankshaft in a petrol engine?
The crankshaft converts the linear motion of the piston into rotation of the crankshaft.
How do you set an engine in its dead center position?
Top dead center on an engine is defined as when the piston is farthest from the crankshaft. Bottom dead center is when the piston is closest to the crankshaft on the engine.
What is the difference between linear and rotary?
Encoders are sensors that generate digital signals in response to movement. Both shaft encoders, which respond to rotation, and linear encoders, which respond to motion in a line.
What is the function of a piston rod?
It connects the piston to whatever the design calls for the piston to push or pull on. In a combustion engine, the piston rod connects the piston to the crankshaft, turning linear reciprocating motion into rotary motion.
How is reciprocating motion changed to rotary motion?
Reciprocating motion is the up and down motion.. This motion is converted into ratational motion by the crankshaft.. This because it (crankshaft) is frequently combined with flywheel thus to keep the discontinous reciprocating energy as rotation energy.. Added points. Crankshaft drive is the entire mechanism that converts the engine's piston up and down motion where as in cylinder a piston is moved as aresult of applied fluid pressure, the actuator provide rotary motion (Lawrence dinala- Law Dinh)
What is the job of a crankshaft?
It turns the stroke movement of the piston(s) into a rotation.
What is difference between piston rod and connecting rod?
A piston rod connects the piston to the crankshaft in an engine, transmitting the force from the expanding gas to the crankshaft to generate motion. A connecting rod connects the piston to the crankshaft, converting the linear motion of the piston into rotational motion to drive the crankshaft. In summary, the piston rod is part of the piston assembly, while the connecting rod is part of the crankshaft assembly in an engine.
What is function of a piston in a diesel engine?
The piston has the same function whether diesel or petrol. The piston is forced down the cylinder when the petrol mixture ignites and expands. That in turn presses on the connecting rod which in turn pushes on the crankshaft. The crankshaft changes the up and down movement of the piston into a rotational movement which makes the car go.
In an internal combustion engine each up or down movement of a piston is called a what?
a revolution i believe, although that may be for the whole crankshaft not each piston a revolution i believe, although that may be for the whole crankshaft not each piston
What does a crankshaft do?
The crankshaft is the part that connects the flywheel and the piston rods on an internal combustible engine. Its job is to change the movement of the pistons to a circular motion, which is what is needed to power a vehicle.
What does a con rod do?
Con rod is short for 'Connecting Rod'. It is the physical link between the rotating crankshaft, and the piston. It allows the rotating force of the crankshaft to push and pull, up and down, the piston in the cylinder
What connects to the piston?
Crankshaft
What connects the piston to the crankshaft?
Gudgeon Pin/Piston Pin
What determines piston stroke?
Both con-rod length and shape of the crankshaft affect piston stroke
What is the purpose of the crankshaft in a petrol engine?
The crankshaft converts the linear motion of the piston into rotation of the crankshaft.
The up- and -down motion of the piston is converted to rotary motion by the?
crankshaft. The crankshaft is connected to the piston through a connecting rod, and as the piston moves up and down, the crankshaft converts this linear motion into rotary motion, which drives the vehicle's wheels through the transmission system.
Connecting rods connect the piston to the?
crankshaft
