A piston is a component of reciprocating engines, reciprocating pumps, gas compressors and pneumatic cylinders, among other similar mechanisms. It is the moving component that is contained by a cylinder and is made gas-tight by piston rings. In an engine, its purpose is to transfer force from expanding gas in the cylinder to the crankshaft via a piston rod and/or connecting rod. In a pump, the function is reversed and force is transferred from the crankshaft to the piston for the purpose of compressing or ejecting the fluid in the cylinder. In some engines, the piston also acts as a valve by covering and uncovering ports in the cylinder wall.
The piston of an internal combustion engine is acted upon by the pressure of the expanding combustion gases in the combustion chamber space at the top of the cylinder. This force then acts downwards through the connecting rod and onto the crankshaft. The connecting rod is attached to the piston by a swivelling gudgeon pin (US: wrist pin). This pin is mounted within the piston: unlike the steam engine, there is no piston rod or crosshead.

Genres: ,let me out of the womb...
leave this earth with a dry wet kiss
capture my heart with your fingertips
i love you in death i hate you in life
a 2 second flashback can change my life
i'm afraid of life. i need some understanding world
i'm afraid of life. i need some strength and four more horse
strange but blid she shows up timed
angry and scared i loose my mind
i hate you in death. i love you in life
these feelings of fear they rule my life
and together we fight. together we die
give me your tongue and the earth flies bye
but together were one. together wev'e died
i am your sun and your earth
[chorus]
take me back to the womb...
