A crankshaft bearing is a critical part of any internal combustion engine. It provides support and allows rotational movement of the crankshaft, the main shaft that converts reciprocating piston motion into rotational motion. Proper crankshaft bearing operation ensures engine efficiency, power, and longevity.
Crankshaft Bearing Type | Description |
---|---|
Plain bearings | Simple and economical, made of a soft metal such as babbitt or copper-lead alloy |
Rolling-element bearings | Use rolling elements like ball bearings or needle bearings for reduced friction |
Hydrodynamic bearings | Utilize a fluid film to create a frictionless surface between the bearing and crankshaft |
Causes of Crankshaft Bearing Failure | Consequences |
---|---|
Oil starvation | Loss of lubrication, leading to bearing seizure and catastrophic engine failure |
Excessive load | Overload can cause bearing deformation and premature wear |
Contamination | Dirt or metal particles can damage bearing surfaces, resulting in reduced lifespan |
