Crankshafts information
The engine crankshaft main function is to transform the linear motion of the piston into the rotational motion via connecting rods. The crankshaft in mounted within the engine block and rotates within the block, moving the pistons in a pre-set pattern.
A flywheel is often attached to one end of the crankshaft, in order to store rotational energy and maintain a more consistent rotational speed as the crankshaft receives energy from the connecting rods in a series of pulses. This assists in smoothing the power delivery and often in conjunction with a Harmonic damper -attached to the other end of crankshaft- reduces torsional vibration.
Crankshafts secondary function is to transmit power to other engine systems/parts like the oil pump (engine lubrication), water pump (cooling system), air conditioning compressor, alternator, and other items.
