Cylinder

StarStarStarStar

The cylinder houses the piston and provides a space where combustion occurs, converting heat into mechanical work.

Valve

StarStarStarStar

Valves regulate the intake of fuel/air mixture into the cylinder and the exit of exhaust gases, ensuring correct engine timing and operation.

StarStarStarStar

Piston

StarStarStarStar

The piston moves within the cylinder under gas pressure during the combustion cycle, transferring energy from expanding gases to the crankshaft.

StarStarStarStar

Crankshaft

StarStarStarStar

The crankshaft converts the linear motion of the piston into rotational motion, which powers the vehicle or machinery.

StarStarStarStar

Connecting Rod

StarStarStarStar

The connecting rod attaches the piston to the crankshaft, enabling the transfer of motion and force between the two.

StarStarStarStar

Camshaft

StarStarStarStar

The camshaft opens and closes the valves in synchronized timing with the engine's cycle, through the use of lobes that push against valve lifters.
