    This document provides an overview of the main components that make up the mechanical arrangement of a piston engine. It outlines the basic components including the cylinder, piston, connecting rod, crankshaft, and camshaft. Diagrams show how the reciprocating motion of the piston is converted to rotational motion by the crankshaft. It also details the valve train components such as the valves, rockers, pushrods, and camshaft that control the opening and closing of the intake and exhaust valves. Finally, it notes that modern engines often use a toothed rubber belt or chain to drive the camshafts.
