Power Train (Flg. 7-7)
The power train includes the cylinder head and cylinder
block assemblies:
a.
Cylinder Head Assembly.
(1) The cylinder head assembly consists of the
intake and exhaust valves, valve springs, rocker arms,
shields, push rods, injection nozzles, and glow plugs.
(2) The valve lifters are driven by the camshaft,
and transfer motion to the intake and exhaust valves
through the push rods and the rocker arms.
(3) When the push rod moves down, the valve
spring forces the valve to close against the valve seat and
seal off the combustion chamber.
(4) The valve opening and closing is timed by the
camshaft gear and crankshaft gear. The sequence is as
follows:
(a)
Intake open, exhaust closed: Air is
drawn into cylinder while piston is moved down.
(b)
Intake closed, exhaust closed: Piston
moves upon compression stroke. Ignition occurs near top
dead center when fuel is injected.
(c)
Intake closed, exhaust closed: Piston
moves down on power stroke, transferring force to
crankshaft.
(d)
Intake closed, exhaust open: Piston
moves up, forcing burned gases out of open valve to
exhaust system.
