Car front connecting rod action
The main function of the automobile front connecting rod is to convert the linear reciprocating motion of the piston into the rotating motion of the crankshaft, and convert the force acting on the piston into the torque output of the crankshaft, thus driving the automobile wheel to rotate .
Specifically, the connecting rod plays a crucial role in the engine:
Connecting piston and crankshaft : One end of the connecting rod connects the piston and the other end connects the crankshaft, so that the linear motion of the piston can be converted into the rotating motion of the crankshaft. This conversion is fundamental to the proper operation of the engine, because the car needs the rotating motion of the crankshaft to output power .
transfer force : The connecting rod also transfers the force acting on the piston to the crankshaft, which is converted into the torque of the crankshaft, thus driving the wheels of the car to rotate. This transfer of force is a key process in the engine's power output .
supporting piston : The connecting rod also plays the role of supporting the piston to ensure the stable operation of the piston in the cylinder without shaking or offset, so as to ensure the normal operation of the engine .
Maintenance and inspection : In order to ensure the normal operation of the connecting rod, it is necessary to check the status of the connecting rod regularly. This includes checking the tightness of the connecting rod bolts, the wear of the journal and piston pin holes, and maintaining good lubrication, avoiding external impact, checking the balance, etc .
Through these functions and maintenance measures, the normal operation of the car engine and the stable running of the car can be ensured.
The main materials of automobile front connecting rod include ductile iron, alloy steel, aluminum alloy and titanium alloy . Each of these materials has advantages and disadvantages and is suitable for different application scenarios.
ductile iron : this is the most commonly used automotive engine connecting rod material, has high strength and toughness, relatively low cost, suitable for general vehicles .
alloy steel : alloy steel connecting rod has higher strength, hardness and wear resistance, but the cost is higher, suitable for high-performance vehicles and racing .
aluminum alloy : aluminum alloy connecting rod light weight, good thermal conductivity, help to improve fuel efficiency, but the strength is low, suitable for the pursuit of lightweight and fuel efficiency vehicles .
titanium alloy : titanium alloy connecting rod has high strength, low density and good corrosion resistance, but the cost is very high, suitable for high-end performance vehicles and racing .
In addition, the connecting rod needs to be polished during machining to solve surface quality problems and improve service life. The polishing process, including deburring, deoxidizing, and flash removal, can be carried out using a vibrating or centrifugal grinding machine .
