🔍 Key Concepts

• Crankshaft location and function in a diesel engine • Difference between main bearings and connecting rod bearings • How the crankshaft is supported along its length in the engine block or bedplate

💭 Think About

• Think about which bearings hold the crankshaft in place along the engine frame or block, not the ones at the ends of the connecting rods. • Ask yourself: which bearings support the crankshaft journals that run in the engine block or bedplate? • Consider which term is commonly used for the fixed bearings that the crankshaft rotates in, as opposed to bearings on other rotating shafts in the propulsion train.

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which option refers to bearings that are fixed in the engine block/bedplate and directly support the crankshaft. • Eliminate any option that describes bearings on other shafts in the propulsion system (not inside the engine). • Make sure the term you choose is commonly used in diesel engine diagrams to label the bearings on the crankshaft journals.
