Abstract:
Provided herein are crankshafts comprising a first and second bearing journal both aligned along a crankshaft rotation axis, a first counterweight throw, a web throw including a first web and a second web coupled via a second crankpin, wherein the first web is coupled to the first counterweight throw via the first bearing journal, and a second counterweight throw coupled to the second web via the second bearing journal. The first web and second web each have a center of gravity (COG) offset from a plane defined by the crankshaft rotation axis and a longitudinal axis of the second crankpin. The COGs of each web can be on opposite sides of a plane defined by the crankshaft rotation axis and a longitudinal axis of the second crankpin. The COGs of each web can be substantially symmetrical relative to the plane.

Claim (Index 1):
A crankshaft, comprising:\n a first bearing journal and a second bearing journal, both aligned along a crankshaft rotation axis; a first counterweight throw including a first throw arm coupled to a second throw arm via a first crankpin, a web throw including a first web and a second web coupled via a second crankpin, wherein the first web is coupled to the second throw arm of the first counterweight throw via the first bearing journal; and a second counterweight throw including a first throw arm connected to a second throw arm via a third crankpin, wherein the first throw arm is connected to the second web via the second bearing journal, wherein the first web and second web each have a center of gravity (COG) on opposite sides of a plane defined by the crankshaft rotation axis and a longitudinal axis of the second crankpin.
