Abstract: A V-shaped crankarm so arranged, constructed, and mounted that when the piston and piston pin are at top dead center and the greatest resistance to the downstroke is made by the crankarm, the V-crankarm will affect the resistance to the downstroke and transfer the power of the downstroke to rotation of the crankarm and the crankarm.
