2大多数活塞由铝铸造而成。通过连杆的作用，活塞把可燃混合气燃烧产生的力传递给曲轴，带动曲轴旋转。

3 柴油机发动机根据喷油方法不同，活塞头部可以形成全部燃烧室，也可以是燃烧室的一部分．

4 在新型发动机上，每个活塞有三个活塞环。（在老式发动机上，每个活塞有四个甚至五个活塞环）环的内侧装在活塞的环槽里，环的外表面紧压在气缸壁上。

4As the camshaft rotates, the lobe, or high spot of the cam, pushes against parts connected to the stem of the valve. This action forces the valve to move downward. This action could open an inlet valve for an intake stroke, or open an exhaust valve for an exhaust stroke.

5 It is apparent from this description that the exhaust valve stays open for a short period of time during which the intake valve is also open. In other words, the end of the exhaust stroke and the beginning of the intake stoke overlap for a short period of time. This is called valve overlap. Valve timing

and valve overlap vary on different engines.
