Connecting Rod

The main function of a connecting rod is to form a link between a piston and crankshaft. A small end of the connecting rod is connected to the piston with a gudgeon pin and the big end is separated into two parts for ease of assembly with a crankpin. The two parts of the big end are the bearing cap and big end housing. Both are being bolted together. This is done for ease of assembly of connecting rod with a crankpin. To supply oil to the big end, the oil hole is drilled from the big end.

Crank Pin for Different Engines

In a single-cylinder engine, straight engine, or flat engine, each crankpin normally serves just one cylinder. This results in a relatively simple design and it is the cheapest to produce. Most V engines have each pair of cylinders sharing a crankpin. This usually requires an offset between the cylinders in each bank, resulting in a simple connecting rod design. If a cylinder offset is not used, then the connecting rods must be articulated or forked at the big end. Forked connecting rods are mainly used in V-twin motorcycle engines, but in the past were found on a number of automobile and aero engines, such as the Rolls-Royce Merlin aero engine of the WWII era. Radial engines use a more complicated version of articulated connecting rods, where a single "master" connecting rod is attached to the single crankpin (one for each row in multi-row designs), and smaller bearings for each of the corresponding cylinders machined into the big end of the master rod.
