Crank Pin for Different Engines

In a single-cylinder engine, straight engine, or flat engine, each crankpin normally serves just one cylinder. This results in a relatively simple design and it is the cheapest to produce. Most V engines have each pair of cylinders sharing a crankpin. This usually requires an offset between the cylinders in each bank, resulting in a simple connecting rod design. If a cylinder offset is not used, then the connecting rods must be articulated or forked at the big end. Forked connecting rods are mainly used in V-twin motorcycle engines, but in the past were found on a number of automobile and aero engines, such as the Rolls-Royce Merlin aero engine of the WWII era. Radial engines use a more complicated version of articulated connecting rods, where a single "master" connecting rod is attached to the single crankpin (one for each row in multi-row designs), and smaller bearings for each of the corresponding cylinders machined into the big end of the master rod.
