Automobile Engine
Automobile engine refers to a fuel-consuming machine or device that is used for propelling automobiles, airplanes, tractors, buses, two wheelers, cars etc. Engine forms an integral component of a vehicle that transforms chemical energy in fuel into mechanical energy for power. Usually, automobile engines make use of four strokes to turn chemical energy into mechanical energy with the help of combustion of gases or hydrocarbon fuel.

Components of Automobile engine 

Camshaft Engine Oil System Engine Mounting Bolts
Crankshaft Engine Valve Engine Overhaul Kits
Connecting Rod Engine block Harmonic Balancer
Cylinder Heads Engine Pully Piston
Crank Case Engine Assemblies Push Rods
Engine Belts Engine Brackets Valve train

 
Camshaft is a type of rotating device or apparatus used in piston engines for propelling or operating poppet valves. Camshaft comprises of series of cams that regulates the opening and closing of valves in the piston engines. The camshaft works with the help of a belt, chain and gears.

The different types of camshafts used in the automobile engine are:

Camshaft
 
Crankshaft
Crankshaft is a device, which converts the up and down movement of the piston into rotatory motion. This shaft is presented at the bottom of an engine and its main function is to rotate the pistons in a circular motion. Crankshaft is further connected to flywheel, clutch, main shaft of the transmission, torque converter and belt pulley.

The main components of crankshaft are:

 
Connecting rods are made of metals, which are used, for joining a rotating wheel to a reciprocating shaft. More precisely, connecting rods also referred to as con rod are used for conjoining the piston to the crankshaft.

Connecting rods can be made of steel, aluminum, titanium, iron and other types of metals.

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book.

 
Cylinder heads refers to a detachable plate, which is used for covering the closed end of a cylinder assembled in an automotive engine. It comprises of combustion chamber valve train and spark plugs. Different types of automobiles have different engine configurations such as Straight engine has only one cylinder head while a engine has two cylinder heads.

The key components of cylinder heads are:

Engine Belts and Pulleys
Engine belts are the bands made of flexible material used for connecting or joining two rotating shafts or pulleys together. These belts work in coordination with wheels and axles for transferring energy. When the wheels or shafts are positioned at extremely different angles, then the engine belts have the ability to change the direction of a force. Engine pulley is a type of machine or a wheel having either a broad rim or groomed rim attached to a rope or chain for lifting heavy objects.

A wide variety of engine belts are used in an automobile engine such as:

 
Oil is one of the necessities of an automobile engine. Oil is distributed under strong pressure to all other moving parts of an engine with the help of an oil pump. This oil pump is placed at the bottom of an engine in the oil pan and is joined by a gear to either the crankshaft or the camshaft. Near the oil pump, there is an oil pressure sensor, which sends information about the status of oil to a warning light or meter gauge.

The different parts of engine oil systems include

Piston
Piston is a cylindrical plug which is used for moving up and down the cylinder according to the position of the crankshaft in its rotation. Piston has multiple uses and functions. In the case of four-stroke engine the piston is pulled or pushed with the help of crankshaft while in the case of compression stroke, piston is pushed with the powerful explosion of mixture of air and fuel.

Piston comprises of several components namely:

Valve train
Valve train consists of various components and parts, which enables valves to operate and function smoothly. Valve train comprises of three main components: camshafts, several components which are used for turning the camshaft’s rotating movement into reciprocating movement, and lastly valves and its various parts.

The primary components of valve train are:
