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.
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.
Connects piston to crank serving as an arm.
The three main functions of piston rings in reciprocating engines are:Sealing the combustion/expansion chamber.Supporting heat transfer from the piston to the cylinder wall.Regulating engine oil consumption.
The gudgeon pin or wrist pin (as it is called in the US), connects the piston to the connecting rod and provides a bearing for the connecting rod to pivot upon as the piston moves.
flip the lever/switch again, it has both an on and off function *if you want the block to retract with the piston, you need a sticky piston
I am providing a website for you to go to for this information. I think you will understand it better if you actually see it. http://www.innerauto.com/Automotive_Systems/4_Cycle_Piston_Engine/Piston/
the function of an exhaust manifold on a gasoline or diesel engine is to expel the burnt fuel from the combustion chamber of each piston out through the exhaust pipe after each combustion stroke of the piston has been completed.
Prevents wear on the pistin and reduces compression loss
engine block, it's function is to carry the engine or where the cylinder head set, piston, it;s function is to compressed the air and fuel.
crnke shaft is the one which is attached with piston trough gudgeon pin or swift pin. Its main use is to rotate the piston in rotary motion with the help of counter weight,due to which piston resiprocate up and down.
it turns the pistons causing the combustion neceserie to run the vehical
