What is a car balance shaft?
Automotive balance shaft is an important device used to reduce engine vibration and vibration. It adopts the principle of relative rotating mass or inertia, and by introducing a balance block or adjusting the geometry of the shaft, the unbalanced force and torque tend to balance when the engine is working, and improve the running smoothness and comfort of the engine. Below we will introduce the definition, working principle and application in automotive engineering in detail. First of all, the automobile balance shaft is a specially designed shaft, its main role is to reduce the unbalanced force and torque generated in the rotating motion. In general, the balance shaft will add some additional mass called a balance block to the rotor, or by adjusting the geometry of the shaft to achieve the adjustment of the mass distribution. In this way, the balance shaft presents a rotating state relative to the rotating axis when the engine is working. Secondly, the working principle of the automobile balance shaft is based on the dynamic principle and vibration control theory. During engine operation, due to the uneven mass distribution of rotating parts, a physical phenomenon called unbalanced force and torque will be generated. This force and torque will cause the engine to produce vibration and vibration, and will be transmitted to the car body and the driver and passenger, affecting the smoothness and comfort of the car. The introduction of the balance shaft can offset the unbalanced force and torque by generating opposite forces and torque, thus making the engine run more smoothly. In automotive engineering, automotive balance shafts are widely used in various types of internal combustion engines to improve engine ride and comfort. By reducing the generation of unbalanced forces and torque inside the engine, the balance shaft can effectively reduce mechanical noise…
