A casing accommodating therein a pair of balance shafts below the cylinder block comprises an upper casing and a lower casing that can vertically be split, and an oil pump body is molded integrally with one of the upper and lower casings. In addition, one end of each of the two casings is inserted into the oil pump body for support therein, and the two balance shafts are each supported on a bearing provided between the two casings in such a manner as to be split into two halves at an intermediate portion or the other end thereof. With this construction, the oil pump body can be molded together with the casing, thereby making it possible to reduce the number of components used and man hours for assembling. In addition, since the bearings can be split into two halves, when compared with other portions of the balance shafts, the journal portion can be thinned, thereby making it possible not only to reduce the sliding friction but also to make the casing smaller in size and lighter in weight. More over, the degree of freedom of designing balance shafts can also be improved. With the balance shaft supporting structure for an engine the durability of a balancer, as well as the degree of freedom of designing the same are improvided without making the engine larger in size and increasing the number of components used.

Vibrations generated by the wheel units of a vehicle are reduced by a low pulsating operation that optimally simulates actual vehicle operating conditions. For this purpose the mass moment of inertia of the wheel unit and of rotating components such as the hub and the brake disc are taken into account. The wheel unit is rotatably mounted on a balancing spindle (2) in a measuring apparatus to determine the mass and angular location of balancing weights (31). The vibrations are measured at a speed that corresponds to a typical travel speed of a vehicle. A loading mechanism including a roller shoe (20) applies a force to the tire tread surface through a spring damping (14, 15) to optimally simulate the conditions of a roadway. The roller shoe (20) has rollers (13) with sections of larger and smaller diameters so that neighboring rollers intermesh. The combined masses of the rollers, as reduced to the roller radius dw, corresponds to the rotational mass of the vehicle wheel as reduced to the tread radius (dR). It is also possible to disengage the contact force from the tread surface for dynamically balancing the wheel unit under load-free conditions. Thus, wheel-balancing steps under loaded and load free conditions can be done on one machine.

A device for removing engine vibration, capable of effectively removing secondary vibration cause by reciprocation of a piston (21) of a multilink-type variable compression ratio engine (E). The secondary vibration can be removed even if the direction of the secondary vibration is inclined relative to the cylinder axis (L1), and the removal is made by inclining the direction (see the arrow direction) of vibration exciting force, produced by a secondary balancer device (43), so that it matches the direction of the secondary vibration. The secondary balancer device (43) is constructed by having balancer weights (44a, 45a) respectively supported by a pair of balancer shafts (44, 45) rotating in the directions opposite from each other. Displacing the phases of the balancer weights (44a, 45b) enables the direction of the produced vibration exciting force to be inclined so that it matches the direction of the secondary vibration of the engine (E).

In an internal combustion engine having a pair of balancer shafts (53, 54), an engine torque is transmitted from a crank gear (28) to an oil pump gear (74) on a drive shaft (73) of an oil pump (71) via a first idler gear (84) and the first balancer shaft gear (64). The engine torque is also transmitted to a fuel pump (72) from the crank gear to a fuel pump gear (78) via the first idler gear and a second idler gear (86), and to the second balancer shaft gear (67) via the first idler gear and second idler gear. Alternatively, the engine torque may be transmitted to the fuel pump from the crank gear to the fuel pump gear via the first idler gear, second balancer shaft gear and second idler gear.

Furthermore, this allows the various gears to be arranged in an efficient (in terms of the overall weight for the given mechanical strength requirements) and compact manner.

It is known that power is normally extracted within a gas turbine engine from a shaft in order to drive auxiliary devices such as electrical power generators. With high extraction rates from such shafts there is mismatching in rotational speeds between the shafts which must be adjusted through leakage taken from valves 8, 9.
