Pistons are the items driven "down" by the combustion in an engine. They are pinned to a connecting rod which is, in turn, bolted onto the crankshaft. This assembly transfers the power from the combustion to the crankshaft which then transfers it to the rest of the drive train. Use the link and check out the pictures and the moving diagram.
