Liners, Oil Sump
10.1
General description
10.1.1 Engine block and bearings
The engine block is cast in one piece of cast iron. The distributing duct
for the cooling water as well as the air receiver are incorporated in the
engine block. The main bearing caps are arranged hanging and
support the crankshaft in interchangeable precision type bearing
shells. The upper bearing shell is guided in the oil groove by a lug at
each end. The lower shell has a lug at one end to be axially located.
The periphery of the shells is longer than that of the bearing bore and
thus provides for the fixation of the shells. The first main bearing, seen
from the driving end, is provided with four thrust washers in order to
guide the crankshaft axially. An extra, so-called shield bearing, may
be mounted next to the flywheel, when needed (depending on instal-
lation).
The camshaft bearing bushes are in housings directly machined
in the block, see chapter 14.
10.1.2 Cylinder liners
The engine block embodies the cylinder liners, made of special
cast iron and honed to an optimal finish. At the top flange the
liners are sealed against the block metallically, and at the lower
part by two O-rings.
10.1.3 Covers
The crankcase covers and the covers of the camshaft openings are
provided with rubber profile gaskets. Some of the crankcase
covers include a spring-loaded safety valve which releases the
overpressure in case of a crankcase explosion. The crankcase is
provided with an air vent pipe including a non-return valve. The
air vent pipe should be conducted away from the engine. A cover
incorporating the oil filling hole is located at the driving end of
the engine.
10.1.4 Oil sump
The light, welded oil sump is attached to the engine block from below
and is sealed off by a rubber sealing. Suction pipes to the lubricating oil
pump and separator, as well as the main lubricating oil distributing
