An engine is disclosed having pistons in operative connection with a crankshaft. A bearing member, defining a curved periphery, is carried on the crankshaft for eccentric rotation thereabout in a direction transverse to the major axis of the crankshaft, with the periphery of the bearing member being positioned to be in power-transmitting, sliding relationship with a connection to the piston. The bearing member is adapted for transverse displacement by the piston rod relative to the crankshaft, while transmitting power to the crankshaft, to absorb any shock generated against the piston and the crankshaft, such as by "engine knock." The bearing member is also adapted for return to its predisplacement position after absorbing the shock. |
