- an annular rib 6 connects hubs 7 to the piston head 4, with a hub bushing 8 for mounting the piston pin in the hub 7 can be provided.
- annular cavity 9 Between ring ring 6 and ring wall 5 exisite rt ei n annular cavity 9, which is covered by a wall part (sheet metal ring 10) to a closed cooling oil chamber.
- the sheet metal ring 10 acc. Fig. 1-4 is radially separated on its circumference in two halves 11, 12, the edges 13, 14 in their joints in the pressure / counter pressure direction e.g. are bent upwards and bear against each other under tension.
- the sheet metal ring 10 On its outer circumference, the sheet metal ring 10 has an upwardly bent collar 15, with which it bears after assembly in a circumferential recess 16 of the ring wall 5 which serves as a support.
- the sheet metal ring 10 On its inner circumference, the sheet metal ring 10 has, in addition to a collar part 17 in the area of the hub 7, an elastically resilient, downwardly bent retaining bracket 18 which can be used according to FIG. 1 and 2 are supported under prestress on the hub bushing 8. The support of the bracket 18 at its open end can also gem. Fig.
- a nozzle 20 is formed in the sheet metal ring 10.
- a further connecting piece can also be provided, or a plurality of beads 21 formed on the collar part 17, which are preferably arranged in the area outside and adjacent to the hubs 7, so that the drain simultaneously to the connecting rod Lubrication can be used.
- the neck for the supply and discharge of the cooling oil can be pulled up with its collar 15 so that there is always a certain amount of cooling oil in the interior of the cavity 9, which corresponds to the level of the inlet and outlet bore.
- two beads 22 are formed on the retaining bracket 18 in the region of each hub 7, which allow cooling oil to flow away.
- two grooves 23 are provided off-center, which run in particular in the axial direction, in the upper hub area.
- the cavity 9 is covered by a wall part (sheet metal ring 24) to form a closed cooling oil chamber, which has a downwardly curved annular surface 25 with a circumferential collar 26 formed thereon.
- this sheet metal ring 24 assumes the contour shown in dashed lines in FIG. 7.
- the sheet metal ring 24 rests under tension on the one hand with the end of the curved ring surface 25 in a recess 27 of the ring rib 6 and on the other hand the collar 26 in a recess 28 of the ring wall 5.
- the sheet metal ring can be designed in two parts with two bores for the cooling oil inlet and outlet, or slotted on one side, a recess 30 being made opposite a separating joint 29, which enables the sheet metal ring 24 to be bent open for assembly.
- This recess 30 can simultaneously to the cooling oil drove used.
- the cooling oil is removed via a further opening 31 near the parting line 29,
- Rotation of the sheet metal ring 24 can be prevented, for example, by a bead 32 or nose which is attached to the collar of the sheet metal ring 24 and engages in a partial recess on the ring wall.
- a wall part 33 used as a sheet metal ring which has an upwardly curved ring surface 34 with collars 35, 36 formed thereon on the outer and inner circumference.
- the collars 35, 36 which point downward away from the upwardly curved ring surface 34, assume the contour shown in broken lines in FIG. 9 in their rest position.
- the sheet metal ring 33 rests under tension on the one hand with its outer collar 35 in a corresponding recess 37 on the inner circumference of the ring wall 5 and on the other hand with its inner collar 36 in a corresponding recess 38 on the outer circumference, the ring rib 6 or hub 7.
- they In order to be able to elastically deform the collars 35, 36, they have longitudinal slots 39, 40 distributed over the circumference, which extend over the entire length of the collars 35, 36.
- the collars 35, 36 are bent towards one another at their open ends 41, 42.
- a nose 43 protruding from the outer collar 35 is formed on the sheet metal ring 10 and fits into a corresponding m of the ring wall 5 provided recess 44 protrudes.
- the sheet metal ring 33 can be designed in two parts (parting lines 45) and have recesses 46, 47 for supplying and removing cooling oil.
- the piston 1 consists of a head part 2, on the hubs 7 of which a piston shaft 3 is pressed and secured with a press fit in the hubs 7 seated bushings 8.
- a locking ring 48 engages in a groove of the piston skirt 3 and lies on the one hand on the outer end face of the hub bushing 8 and on the other hand on the end face of the piston pin (not shown).
- an outer ring wall 5 Extending from the bottom 4 of the head part 2 is an outer ring wall 5 containing the grooves for the piston rings. Radially at a distance within the ring wall 5, an annular rib 6 connects the hubs 7 to the piston crown 4. Between the ring rib 6 and the ring wall 5 there is an annular cavity 9 , which is covered by a sheet metal ring 49 to form a closed cooling oil chamber. In order to be able to apply cooling oil to the cavity 9, a connection piece 50, 51 is formed in the sheet metal ring 49 for the inlet and outlet.
- the sheet metal ring 49 which is separated radially into two halves 52, 53, has on its inner circumference an upwardly directed collar 54, with which it bears after assembly in a circumferential recess 55 of the ring rib 6 serving as a support. With its outer edge 56, the sheet metal ring 49 lies in a recess 57 at the open end of the ring wall 5 with axial play and is prestressed by the piston shaft 3 to such an extent that the forces acting during operation can be absorbed without allowing the sheet metal ring to move. By the recess 55 and the recess 57, the sheet metal ring is guided on its inner and outer circumference and centered and sealed.
- the sheet metal ring should be made of a resilient material, e.g. Spring steel be made.
