Abstract
Description
- This invention relates generally to oil cooled pistons.
- In the past, to cool pistons in engines and the like, lubricating oil has been sprayed upwardly into a cooling dome and an annular cooling groove adjacent the underside of the piston crown for the purpose of cooling (See US-A-4056044). A ledge or splash sill can be provided for trapping some of the oil and for directing the trapped oil into a cooling chamber to increase the cooling effect (See FR-A-2392 238).
- In FR-A-2392 238 a problem exists in that the ledge is positioned at the end of the direct oil to the cooling chamber, and that therefore a quantity of oil directed into the groove may well not traverse its whole length to reach the ledge. Furthermore, due to the flexible nature of the ledge and its position oil is not easily retained above the ledge in the groove.
- According to the invention an oil cooled piston which comprises a crown portion; inner and outer annular walls connected to the crown portion and defining therebetween an annular groove open at one end; and a substantially annular ledge extending from the inner wall towards the outer wall, for trapping cooling fluid thereon, the ledge having a surface inclined from the inner wall into the annular groove, is characterized in that the outer wall has an end surface adjacent the open end of the groove, that the surface of the ledge is adjacent the open end of the groove, the ledge extending across the open end of the groove towards the end surface of the outer wall, and that the ledge has an opening for enabling a stream of fluid to be directed past the ledge into the annular groove.
- Fluid is thus trapped by the annular ledge so as to be directed back into the groove on movement of the piston, in order to increase the cooling effect.
- A number of examples of pistons constructed in accordance with the invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:-
- Figure 1 is an enlarged cross-sectional view illustrating a first embodiment;
- Figure 2 is a bottom plan view taken along the line 11-11 of Figure 1;
- Figure 3 is another enlarged cross-sectional view illustrating a second embodiment;
- Figure 4 is a view taken along the line IV-IV of Figure 3;
- Figure 5 is an enlarged partial cross-sectional view illustrating a further, preferred embodiment;
- Figures 6-8 are enlarged partial cross-sectional views illustrating alternative embodiments; and,
- Figures 9, 10 are enlarged partial cross-sectional views illustrating a cooling oil spray during the piston stroke.
- A
reciprocating piston 10, Figure 1, has ajournal pin 12 by which it is connected atboss 15 to a connectingrod 14 at oneend 17, the connecting rod connecting to a crankshaft (not shown) at its opposite end in the well known manner. Aconventional cylinder liner 16 is provided for guiding the reciprocating action ofpiston 10. - The
piston 10 includes anupper crown portion 18 and alower skirt portion 20 of the well known type which includespartial skirts 20a - The
crown portion 18 includes inner andouter wall portions annular groove 26 closed at anupper end 28 and having an opening at alower end 30. Theouter wall 24 includesconventional grooves 32 carryingcompression rings 34. Anannular relief 36 is provided betweenrings 34 and agroove 38 is provided belowrings 34 for carrying anoil control ring 40. - The
outer wall 24 terminates at anend surface 42 just below theoil control ring 40. Theskirt portion 20 is just below theend surface 42 and spaced therefrom by anopening 44. - The
inner wall 22 separates thegroove 26 fromcrown 18 and coolingdome 46. Thewall 22 extends downwardly past the opening 44 to thepin boss 15. - The
piston 10 may be cast from iron to form a thin-walled, light-weight, one-piece unit. However,upper dome portion 18 can be cast separately fromlower skirt portion 20 and the portions could then be welded together at 19 by a brazing process if desired. - A conventional piston cooling jet is fixedly positioned so as to be adjacent
lower skirt 20 when the piston is in its lowest position for spraying a jet of fluid such as lubricating oil upwardly intoannular groove 26 andcooling dome 46 as is known. The jet, Figures 9, 10, constantly sprays the oil upwardly to the underside of thecrown 18. The spray is directed so that when the piston is bottom dead center or when thereciprocating piston 10 is at its lowermost position relative to thefixed jet 48, the spray bathes and coolsgroove 26 which has become heated due to proximity tocrown 18. When thepiston 10 is at top dead center, the spray bathes and coolsdome 46. This momentary cooling is advantageous but does not continuously cool both thegroove 26 and thedome 46. - To enhance cooling, a splash sill or
ledge 50 is provided as a means for trapping oil in thegroove 26.Sill 50 is formed as a substantially annular ledge extending radially outwardly frominner wall 22adjacent opening 44 and reaching towardouter wall 24. Ledge orsill 50 also extends upwardly towards thecrown 18. Ledge 50 terminates atlip portion 52 which is spaced fromend surface 42. The preferred configuration forledge 50 is illustrated in Figure 5. - A sloping
upper surface 56 is provided on ledge 50.Surface 56 may be of a substantially constant slope such as that shown in Figures 5-7 or may be curved or cup-shaped such as is shown in Figure 8.Surface 56 providesledge 50 with angular disposition relative toinner wall 22. Thus, ledge 50 andwall 22 cooperate to form a trough-like fluid trap. - In order to provide the maximum cooling splash for
bathing groove 26, it has been discovered according to this invention, thatledge 50 is most advantageously situated as described above, that is, extending outwardly frominner wall 22 and sloped upwardly towardcrown 18. However, situated as such,ledge 50 is directly in the oil jet spray path extending betweenjet 48 andgroove 26. Therefore, theledge 50 includes aslot 60 as a means for permitting the pressurized stream to be directed pastledge 50 and intogroove 26, see Figures 2 and 4. As illustrated, there are two slots 60 (180 degrees diametrically opposed) for the purpose of providing a piston which can be installed without concern as to the location ofslot 60. However, since only onejet 48 is usually provided, oneslot 60 is sufficient. - Piston 10 reciprocates downwardly to bottom dead center and jet 48 directs lubricating oil upwardly past
ledge 50 viaslot 60 intogroove 26. The oil bathes and momentarily coolsgroove 26, thereafter drains downwardly and is trapped byledge 50 aspiston 10 accelerates upwardly to its top dead center positon where the oil then bathes thedome 46. Aspiston 10 begins to reverse direction at the top dead center position and reciprocates downward again, oil trapped betweensurface 56 andinner wall 22 tends to continue upwardly and is thus splashed intogroove 26 thus supplementing the direct cooling from the jet spray which thereafter occurs whenpiston 10 once again reaches bottom dead center.
