ABSTRACT:
A scotch yoke connection between a piston rod and crankshaft comprises a free floating crank pin having a central portion of retangular cross section received directly between opposed internal bearing surfaces of the yoke, and end portions of circular cross section freely journalled in crankshaft flanges on opposite sides of the yoke. When the yoke is removed, the crank pin can be rotated to present a different pair of opposite surfaces to the bearing surfaces of the yoke thereby providing wear compensation. The bearing surfaces of the yoke may be defined by replaceable liner plates.
