Abstract
This cylinder block includes: a cylinder block body in which a plurality of cylinder chambers are formed around a rotating shaft; a plurality of first detected portions formed on the outer peripheral surface of the cylinder block body and circumferentially spaced apart from each other at a predetermined first distance; and one or more second detected portions formed on the outer peripheral surface of the cylinder block body and each circumferentially spaced apart from an adjacent one of the plurality of first detected portions at a second distance different from the first distance.
Claims1
A A cylinder block comprising:
- a cylinder block body in which a plurality of cylinder chambers are formed around a rotating shaft;
- N−2 first detected portions formed on an outer peripheral surface of the cylinder block body;
- and
- a second detected portion formed on the outer peripheral surface of the cylinder block body, wherein:
- the N−2 first detected portions are disposed at N−2 positions that are among positions determined by equally dividing the outer peripheral surface of the cylinder block body by N;
- and
- the second detected portion is one second detected portion disposed at a position offset from two remaining positions among the positions determined by equally dividing the outer peripheral surface of the cylinder block body by N.
