Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0012906A1] A balance shaft (190) has a pair of journal members (192, 194), a main balance weight (196) positioned between the journal members (192, 194), and a second overhung balance weight (198) which extends on the other side of the second journal member (194). An I-beam shaped connector member (200) connects the main balance weight (196) to the first journal member (192), while providing bending stiffness in the region of the balance weight (196). A second I-beam shaped structural member (210) connects the second balance weight (198) to the second journal member (194) with high stiffness.
