Volvo cars are designed to stand all kinds of possible vehicular
mishaps with its safety features and equipments, the passengers and the
vehicle itself are guaranteed to be protected. Though many car
manufacturers strive to compete with Volvo in terms of safety aspect,
still, Volvo is the leading and known brand to introduce and use
innovative safety technology.
Nevertheless, Volvo vehicles are not all about safety for they too have
something to say when it comes to styling, power and performance. In
order to maintain your Volvo automobile in perfect showroom condition,
certain routine check-ups and regular calibration must be made on all
the systems and components of your car.
Take for example the engine system of your car. Engines are composed of
several parts and each one is designed to serve a distinct and separate
purpose from others although interdependent with one another. The
crankshaft is that part of an engine which translates reciprocating
linear piston motion into rotation, and a device called harmonic
balancer is connected to it in order to reduce torsional vibration.
Torsional vibration is the periodic vibration, typically in time that
occurs when an object twists around its axis and is found in the
crankshafts of most internal combustion engines.
Harmonic balancers like the Volvo harmonic balancer work every time the
cylinders fire and the power is transmitted through the crankshaft and
takes the largest impact of the said power causing it to move before
the rear end of the crankshaft resulting in a twisting motion with the
rest unwinding and snapping back in the opposite direction therefore
causing torsional vibration. Harmonic balancer prevents the happening
of the said vibration by attaching it at the front part of the
crankshaft.
If you to see what a harmonic balancer looks like, it is made of two
pieces connected by a rubber disk, spring loaded friction discs, or
both. So when the power coming from the cylinder goes in contact with
the crank’s front, the balancer tries to twist the heavy part of the
damper therefore the crank’s front cannot speed up as much with the
damper attached because the force is now used to twist the rubber and
speed up the damper wheel. In short, the harmonic balancer keeps the
crankshaft operation calm therefore reducing unnecessary vibration.
Harmonic balancers are also being referred to as crank pulley damper or
vibration damper.
