Abstract: Crankshaft is one of the most important parts of an engine and one of the
more difficult parts to produce. When the engine is running, the flammable gas mixture in
the cylinder is ignited, and the flammable gas mixture expands the active area of the piston
rod, driving the piston rod of the engine to move up and down, and then the crankshaft
that the piston rod touches pushes the engine shaft and drives the crankshaft to rotate. .

extremely extreme, and their hardness and service life are met with great challenges. Once
the crankshaft suffers fatigue damage or even cracks, it will destroy other components of

cylinder crankshaft is mainly used as the engine crankshaft of the diesel engine. In this
paper, the finite element analysis of the L380Q-05003 three-cylinder crankshaft is carried
out, and its structure is analyzed. The rationality of the parameters, if the analysis results
show unqualified, the parameters of the crankshaft can be optimized accordingly to make
the structure meet the requirements.
This paper mainly takes the crankshaft of L380Q-05003 three-cylinder engine as the
research objec t. The th ree-dimens iona l modeling of the cranksha ft of t he L380Q-05003
three-cylinder engine was completed by using Solid Works three-dimensional modeling

workbench, and the movement and stress nephogram of the crankshaft were obtained. At
the same time, by carrying out modal analysis and stiffness calculation of the crankshaft,
it can be found that the main modal and the structural functional parts of the crankshaft
have removed local modes, and the frequency range of the main mode is between 400Hz
and 2000Hz. In the actual working process, the modal frequencies of the crankshaft,
especially the first and second order frequencies, should be avoided. Finally, the harmonic
response analysis of the crankshaft is carried out to obtain the displacement result analysis
and the stress result analysis. The final conclusion is that the design of the crankshaft of
the L380Q-05003 three-cylinder engine is reasonable.
