Abstract: 1453497 Assembling i.c. engine components SOC D'ETUDES DE MACHINES THERMIQUES 8 Nov 1974 [9 Nov 1973] 48390/74 Heading B3A A device for installing and removing a connecting rod big-end cap 48 of an internal combustion engine comprises a supporting frame 1 mounted on one side of the engine and movable along its length, a first carriage 13 mounted on the frame and displaceable perpendicularly to the path of travel of the frame, a second carriage 20 mounted on the first carriage 13 and displaceable on it in a direction perpendicular to the joint plane 17 between the cap 48 and the connecting rod 51, a toggle system pivotally connected at one end to the second carriage 20 and at its other including holding means for supporting the cap 48 and power means for operating the device. The frame 1 moves along rails 2, 3 and when in position is locked manually. The carriage 13 is moved forwardly along rails 10 and locked in position, while the carriage 20 is in its lower position with rollers 21 bearing on the bottom ends of apertures 15 in plates 12 of the carriage 13. Arms 39, 46 of the toggle system are retracted to position a big-end cap support 84 horizontally. When the cap 48 is on the support 84, the carriage 13 is unlocked and moved rearwardly along the rails 10 to the position in phantom lines in Fig. 1, where it is again locked. The frame 1 is unlocked and moved along the rails 2, 3 until the bearing cap is in alignment with an inspection hole 75 in the engine crankcase and in registry with its connecting rod. The frame 1 is locked in position and the carriage 13 unlocked to allow the cap 48 to be moved into the hole 75. A rotary activator (30), Fig. 4 (not shown), is energized to extend the toggle system by means of a gear train 32, 33, 35, 40, 38, 43, 44, thereby pivoting the arm 46 to bring the cap 48 at the correct angle for engagement with the connecting rod. An actuator 22 is then energised to move the carriage 20 along the axis 18 of the connecting rod, the carriage being guided by the rollers 21 in the apertures 15. Bolts 50 are moved downwardly through the cap 48 until they engage nuts 70 secured in the support 84. The nuts are screwed onto the bolts by a tommy bar 72 until they protrude through the nuts, whereupon rods (57), Fig. 6 (not shown), are raised by hydraulic actuators and their threaded ends 58, Fig. 2, screwed onto the bolts. The hydraulic actuators retract the rods (57) to tension the bolts and the nuts 70 are finally tightened. The load is then released, the rods (57) unscrewed and the carriage 20 returned to its lower position. The carriage 13 may then be moved rearwardly and the frame 1 moved along the rails 2, 3 for another big-end cap to be loaded on the support. The device is intended for installing and removing big-end caps of connecting rods on large internal combustion engines, e.g. marine engines or stationary plant engines.
