Definitions
- the invention relates to a piston for an internal combustion engine according to the preamble of claim 1 and a combination of such a piston with an oil injection arrangement.
- the invention is based on a prior art in the form of a piston with a cooling channel, which is known as Vorbehrssussistand.
- Known cooling channels may have different cross-sectional shapes and particular configurations, such as e.g. have a wave-shaped course.
- a piston which has no combustion bowl.
- the piston is formed with two or more separate cooling channels, which are filled by an inclined nozzle, wherein holes for an oil supply in the cooling channels are arranged obliquely according to the jet direction.
- a piston which has two separate cooling channels, wherein two inclined nozzles are provided for an oil supply and holes for an oil supply in the cooling channels are arranged obliquely in accordance with the beam direction.
- the invention has for its object to provide with simple means improved in terms of cooling effect piston and a populated arrangement with a cooling channel.
- the piston according to the invention has two or more cooling channels, of which at least two are at different levels with respect to the height along the piston axis and / or in the radial direction.
- the basic idea of the invention is to provide a plurality of cooling channels, which run in different zones of the piston and thus bring about efficient cooling. In particular, this can be used to lower the temperatures in the entire piston without the hitherto chosen, complex measures being required.
- the teaching described herein differs from known cooling channels, which may have a wave-like course, and in which, accordingly, individual, comparatively short sections are at different levels.
- cooling channels which may have an annular section and one of which branches off, inclined section. Such sections are not at different levels insofar as they are directly connected.
- no separate sections are provided in such a way that they can be seen as a separate openings in a sectional view containing the axis. Rather, one recognizes the connection between the different sections in the mentioned sectional view.
- the invention provides that, for example, cooling channels, which are located along the piston axis at different (axial) level, are delimited from each other in the region of the shortest connection between two such channels by piston material.
- they could be fluidly connected by a suitable, in the broadest sense helical connection.
- the connection between two such cooling duct sections can also be effected by connecting openings or bores extending substantially parallel to the piston axis. This applies in particular, when the two cooling duct sections are only in the direction of the piston axis, but not in the radial direction at different levels.
- Two cooling channels extending in the radial direction i. Starting from the piston axis to the piston skirt out, at different levels, so radially further outward or further inside, can also be connected by a largely helical connection or a largely straight connection opening or bore. Since the cooling duct sections are at radially different levels, such a connecting opening or bore would be inclined in a suitable manner with respect to the piston axis. If a cooling channel has at least two sections which, as described, are at different levels, the filling can be carried out such that the oil is brought into the upper channel, for example by means of a nozzle, and from there flows into the lower channel and finally exits ,

- Such inflows and / or outflows can be produced by casting cores or similar methods by means of conventional casting technology. This allows a cost-effective production. However, it is also conceivable to produce inflows and / or outflows subsequently by drilling or similar production measures.
- the piston is preferably made of aluminum or an aluminum alloy, and is preferably installed in a diesel engine, preferably a direct-injection engine. Reinforcements, for example by remelting, alloying, introduction of metallic or ceramic fibers, or of dispersion materials can also be incorporated in the pistons.
- the individual cooling channels have fluidically separate inflows and / or outflows.
- this offers the advantage that, as explained in more detail below, either the oil pressure for the respective cooling channel can be adjusted separately, or by a slanted nozzle, the filling can be done by a single nozzle, and at the same time each cooling channel can be separated and reliably supplied with coolant.
- the fluidic separation offers the advantage that the coolant can flow away unhindered and does not hinder the subsequent flow of colder coolant.

- the amount of coolant, in particular of the oil can be reduced in an advantageous manner.
- a preferred embodiment is that the one nozzle provided has two or more outlet channels.
- a simple structure can be realized by a single nozzle is arranged obliquely so that the coolant jet is inclined, so that this, depending on the position of the piston, enters one or more different cooling channels. Due to the oblique formation of a coolant jet, the coolant can thus, for example, in different positions of the piston between the top and bottom dead center, i. in the direction of the piston axis, entering different inlet openings, which are located in the radial and / or circumferential direction at different locations. In other words, different cooling channels can be filled in different positions of the piston.
- the coolant jet enters into a cooling channel only in one position, for example at bottom dead center, and in another position, for example at top dead center, the coolant jet strikes the piston crown and cools it.
- a second cooling channel can be filled by its own nozzle.
- the piston 10 according to the invention which may be made of aluminum or an aluminum alloy, in particular cast, generally a combustion bowl 12, which may be ⁇ -shaped, a plurality of annular grooves 14 and two (it is only one recognizable) piston pin bosses 16 on.
- the cooling channels can, as in Fig. 1 to recognize, have a substantially circular cross-section.
- a first cooling channel 18 is located in a region "next to" the combustion chamber trough and in the axial direction to comparatively high level, in particular a short distance below the piston crown 22. In that regard, it is referred to below as the bottom cooling channel 18.

- the cooling channels 18, 20 are formed with inflows 32, 36 for a supply of coolant.
- the inflows 32, 36 are substantially parallel to the axis of the piston 10th
- the two nozzles are arranged on opposite sides of the piston pin (not shown) which is mounted in the piston pin 16 is.

Description
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Kolben für einen Verbrennungsmotor nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1 sowie eine Kombination eines derartigen Kolbens mit einer Öleinspritzanordnung.The invention relates to a piston for an internal combustion engine according to the preamble of claim 1 and a combination of such a piston with an oil injection arrangement.
Insbesondere auf dem Gebiet der Dieselmotoren geht die Entwicklung in den letzten Jahren immer mehr in Richtung einer erhöhten Leistungsdichte. Hierfür sind vor allem schnelllaufende, aufgeladene Dieselmotoren vorgesehen. Die Leistungszunahme führt zu erhöhten Temperaturen am Kolben und zu höheren mechanischen Belastungen durch den zunehmenden Zünddruck. In Anbetracht dieser Belastungserhöhungen wurde bislang in erster Linie eine Steigerung der Warmfestigkeit der Kolbenlegierungen vorgesehen. Der Einsatz insbesondere von Aluminiumlegierungen ist jedoch thermisch limitiert, da die zur Steigerung der Warmfestigkeit zugegebenen Elemente, insbesondere Nickel und Kupfer, zu einer Absenkung der Schmelztemperatur führen. Weitere Maßnahmen zur Erhöhung der Warmfestigkeit von Aluminiumkolben bestehen in dem Einbringen von Bewehrungen beispielsweise durch Umschmelzen, Auflegieren, Einbringen von metallischen oder keramischen Fasern, oder von Dispersionswerkstoffen. Ferner besteht grundsätzlich die Möglichkeit, Kolben aus Verbundwerkstoffen herzustellen. Die bislang bekannten Lösungen weisen den Nachteil hoher Herstellungskosten auf.Especially in the field of diesel engines, the development in recent years increasingly in the direction of increased power density. For this purpose, especially fast-running, supercharged diesel engines are provided. The increase in power leads to increased temperatures at the piston and higher mechanical loads due to the increasing ignition pressure. In view of these load increases, an increase in the hot strength of the piston alloys has hitherto been provided primarily. However, the use of aluminum alloys in particular is thermally limited, since the elements added to increase the heat resistance, in particular nickel and copper, lead to a lowering of the melting temperature. Other measures to increase the heat resistance of aluminum pistons consist in the introduction of reinforcements, for example, by remelting, alloying, introduction of metallic or ceramic fibers, or of dispersion materials. Furthermore, it is basically possible to produce pistons from composite materials. The previously known solutions have the disadvantage of high production costs.
Die Erfindung geht von einem Stand der Technik in Form eines Kolbens mit einem Kühlkanal aus, der als Vorbenutzungsgegenstand bekannt ist. Bekannte Kühlkanäle können unterschiedliche Querschnittsformen und besondere Ausgestaltungen, wie z.B. einen wellenförmigen Verlauf aufweisen.The invention is based on a prior art in the form of a piston with a cooling channel, which is known as Vorbenutzungsgegenstand. Known cooling channels may have different cross-sectional shapes and particular configurations, such as e.g. have a wave-shaped course.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, mit einfachen Mitteln einen im Hinblick auf die Kühlwirkung verbesserten Kolben und eine damit bestückte Anordnung mit einem Kühlkanal zu schaffen.The invention has for its object to provide with simple means improved in terms of cooling effect piston and a populated arrangement with a cooling channel.
Die Lösung dieser Aufgabe erfolgt durch den im Anspruch 1 beschriebenen Kolben.The solution to this problem is achieved by the piston described in claim 1.
Demzufolge weist der erfindungsgemäße Kolben zwei oder mehr Kühlkanäle auf, von denen sich zumindest zwei im Hinblick auf die Höhe entlang der Kolbenachse und/oder in radialer Richtung auf unterschiedlichen Niveaus befinden.Consequently, the piston according to the invention has two or more cooling channels, of which at least two are at different levels with respect to the height along the piston axis and / or in the radial direction.
Im Wesentlichen besteht der Grundgedanke der Erfindung darin, mehrere Kühlkanäle vorzusehen, die in unterschiedlichen Zonen des Kolbens verlaufen und somit eine effiziente Kühlung bewirken. Insbesondere können dadurch die Temperaturen in dem gesamten Kolben gesenkt werden, ohne dass die bislang gewählten, aufwändigen Maßnahmen erforderlich sind. Zu der Anordnung "auf unterschiedlichen Niveaus" ist zu sagen, dass darunter eine Übereinander- und/oder Nebeneinander-Anordnung von in sich geschlossenen Kühlkanälen gemeint ist. Diesbezüglich unterscheidet sich die hierin beschriebene Lehre von bekannten Kühlkanälen, die einen wellenförmigen Verlauf aufweisen können, und bei denen sich dementsprechend einzelne, vergleichsweise kurze Abschnitte auf unterschiedlichen Niveaus befinden. Ferner besteht dieser Unterschied gegenüber Kühlkanälen, die einen ringförmigen und einen davon abzweigenden, geneigten Abschnitt aufweisen können. Derartige Abschnitte befinden sich insofern nicht auf unterschiedlichen Niveaus, als sie unmittelbar miteinander verbunden sind. Insbesondere sind bei derartigen Kühlkanälen keine getrennten Abschnitte dahingehend vorgesehen, dass sie in einer Schnittdarstellung, welche die Achse enthält, als getrennte Öffnungen erkennbar sind. Vielmehr erkennt man in der genannten Schnittdarstellung die Verbindung zwischen den verschiedenen Abschnitten.Essentially, the basic idea of the invention is to provide a plurality of cooling channels, which run in different zones of the piston and thus bring about efficient cooling. In particular, this can be used to lower the temperatures in the entire piston without the hitherto chosen, complex measures being required. As to the arrangement "at different levels", it is meant to mean a superimposed and / or juxtaposed arrangement of self-contained cooling channels. In this regard, the teaching described herein differs from known cooling channels, which may have a wave-like course, and in which, accordingly, individual, comparatively short sections are at different levels. Furthermore, this difference exists with respect to cooling channels, which may have an annular section and one of which branches off, inclined section. Such sections are not at different levels insofar as they are directly connected. In particular, in such cooling channels no separate sections are provided in such a way that they can be seen as a separate openings in a sectional view containing the axis. Rather, one recognizes the connection between the different sections in the mentioned sectional view.
Demgegenüber ist erfindungsgemäß vorgesehen, dass beispielsweise Kühlkanäle, die sich entlang der Kolbenachse auf unterschiedlichem (axialen) Niveau befinden, im Bereich der kürzesten Verbindung zwischen zwei derartigen Kanälen durch Kolbenmaterial voneinander abgegrenzt sind. Gleichwohl könnten sie durch eine geeignete, im weitesten Sinne schraublinienförmige Verbindung strömungstechnisch miteinander verbunden sein. Daneben kann die Verbindung zwischen zwei derartigen Kühlkanalabschnitten auch durch weitgehend parallel zur Kolbenachse verlaufende Verbindungsöffnungen oder Bohrungen erfolgen. Dies gilt insbesondere dann, wenn sich die beiden Kühlkanalabschnitte lediglich in Richtung der Kolbenachse, nicht jedoch in radialer Richtung auf unterschiedlichen Niveaus befinden.In contrast, the invention provides that, for example, cooling channels, which are located along the piston axis at different (axial) level, are delimited from each other in the region of the shortest connection between two such channels by piston material. However, they could be fluidly connected by a suitable, in the broadest sense helical connection. In addition, the connection between two such cooling duct sections can also be effected by connecting openings or bores extending substantially parallel to the piston axis. this applies In particular, when the two cooling duct sections are only in the direction of the piston axis, but not in the radial direction at different levels.
Zwei Kühlkanäle, die sich in radialer Richtung, d.h. von der Kolbenachse ausgehend zum Kolbenmantel hin, auf unterschiedlichen Niveaus, also radial weiter außen oder weiter innen befinden, können ebenfalls durch eine weitgehend schraublinienförmige Verbindung oder eine weitgehend gerade Verbindungsöffnung oder Bohrung verbunden sein. Da sich die Kühlkanalabschnitte auf radial unterschiedlichen Niveaus befinden, wäre eine derartige Verbindungsöffnung oder -bohrung in geeigneter Weise bezüglich der Kolbenachse geneigt. Wenn ein Kühlkanal zumindest zwei Abschnitte aufweist, die sich, wie beschrieben, auf unterschiedlichen Niveaus befinden, kann die Befüllung derart erfolgen, dass das Öl beispielsweise mittels einer Düse in den oberen Kanal gebracht wird, und von dort in den unteren Kanal strömt und schließlich austritt.Two cooling channels extending in the radial direction, i. Starting from the piston axis to the piston skirt out, at different levels, so radially further outward or further inside, can also be connected by a largely helical connection or a largely straight connection opening or bore. Since the cooling duct sections are at radially different levels, such a connecting opening or bore would be inclined in a suitable manner with respect to the piston axis. If a cooling channel has at least two sections which, as described, are at different levels, the filling can be carried out such that the oil is brought into the upper channel, for example by means of a nozzle, and from there flows into the lower channel and finally exits ,
Durch die erfindungsgemäßen Maßnahmen kann durch eine geeignete, immer noch vergleichsweise einfache Gestaltung von einem oder mehreren Kühlkanälen eine optimierte Kühlwirkung erzeugt werden. Die Kühlkanäle können nämlich in die jeweils besonders temperaturgefährdeten Zonen verlegt werden. Dort kann durch die Kühlkanäle eine günstige Temperatursenkung des Kolbens sichergestellt werden.The measures according to the invention make it possible to produce an optimized cooling effect by means of a suitable, still comparatively simple design of one or more cooling channels. Namely, the cooling channels can be laid in the zones which are particularly exposed to temperature. There can be ensured by the cooling channels a favorable lowering of the temperature of the piston.
Als weiterer Vorteil sei erwähnt, dass der Kolben durch die Ausbildung mehrerer Kühlkanäle in derart geringem Umfang verändert werden muss, dass in vorteilhafter Weise vorhandene Gießeinrichtungen verwendet werden können. Beispielsweise können auch diejenigen besonderen Gießeinrichtungen verwendet werden, die für das Einbringen von Verstärkungsfasern erforderlich sind. Hierdurch ergibt sich ebenfalls eine besonders gute Wirtschaftlichkeit des erfindungsgemäßen Kolbens.As a further advantage should be mentioned that the piston must be changed by the formation of multiple cooling channels in such a small extent that advantageously existing casting facilities can be used. For example, those special casting devices that are required for the introduction of reinforcing fibers can also be used. This also results in a particularly good economy of the piston according to the invention.
Mindestens ein Zu- und/oder Abfluss verläuft im Wesentlichen parallel zur Kolbenachse. Bevorzugt sind alle Zu- und/oder Abflüsse parallel zur Kolbenachse ausgebildet. Derartige Zu- und/oder Abflüsse sind durch Gießkerne oder ähnliche Verfahren mittels herkömmlicher Gießtechnik herstellbar. Dies ermöglicht eine kostengünstige Fertigung. Es ist jedoch auch denkbar, Zu- und/oder Abflüsse anschließend durch Bohrungen oder ähnliche Fertigungsmaßnahmen herzustellen.At least one inflow and / or outflow runs essentially parallel to the piston axis. Preferably, all inflows and / or outflows are formed parallel to the piston axis. Such inflows and / or outflows can be produced by casting cores or similar methods by means of conventional casting technology. This allows a cost-effective production. However, it is also conceivable to produce inflows and / or outflows subsequently by drilling or similar production measures.
Der Kolben besteht bevorzugt aus Aluminium oder einer Aluminiumlegierung, und wird bevorzugt in einem Dieselmotor, vorzugsweise einem Direkteinspritzer eingebaut. In den Kolben können zudem Bewehrungen, beispielsweise durch Umschmelzen, Auflegieren, Einbringen von metallischen oder keramischen Fasern, oder von Dispersionswerkstoffen eingebracht sein.The piston is preferably made of aluminum or an aluminum alloy, and is preferably installed in a diesel engine, preferably a direct-injection engine. Reinforcements, for example by remelting, alloying, introduction of metallic or ceramic fibers, or of dispersion materials can also be incorporated in the pistons.
Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen des erfindungsgemäßen Kolbens sind in den weiteren Ansprüchen beschrieben.Advantageous developments of the piston according to the invention are described in the further claims.
Es ist vorteilhaft, wenn die einzelnen Kühlkanäle strömungstechnisch getrennte Zu- und/oder Abflüsse aufweisen. Im Bereich des Zuflusses bietet dies den Vorteil, dass, wie nachfolgend noch genauer ausgeführt, entweder der Öldruck für den jeweiligen Kühlkanal getrennt eingestellt werden kann, oder durch eine schrägstehende Düse die Befüllung durch eine einzige Düse erfolgen kann, und gleichzeitig jeder Kühlkanal getrennt und zuverlässig mit Kühlmittel versorgt werden kann. Im Bereich des Abflusses bietet die strömungstechnische Trennung den Vorteil, dass das Kühlmittel ungehindert abfließen kann und das Nachfließen von kälterem Kühlmittel nicht behindert.It is advantageous if the individual cooling channels have fluidically separate inflows and / or outflows. In the area of the inflow, this offers the advantage that, as explained in more detail below, either the oil pressure for the respective cooling channel can be adjusted separately, or by a slanted nozzle, the filling can be done by a single nozzle, and at the same time each cooling channel can be separated and reliably supplied with coolant. In the area of the outflow, the fluidic separation offers the advantage that the coolant can flow away unhindered and does not hinder the subsequent flow of colder coolant.
Für die Anordnung der Zuflüsse, soweit diese getrennt vorgesehen sind, wird derzeit bevorzugt, dass sich sämtliche Zuflüsse, insbesondere zwei Zuflüsse bei dem Vorsehen von zwei getrennten Kühlkanälen, auf der Gegendruckseite des Kolbens befinden. Eine vorgesehene zweite Kühldüse erfordert nämlich eine zusätzliche Aussparung am Kolbenschaft, oder es wird eine Verbreiterung einer vorhandenen Aussparung notwendig. Unter diesen Umständen hat sich die Anordnung beider Zuflüsse auf der Gegendruckseite als vorteilhaft erwiesen. Es ist jedoch ebenso denkbar und kann in bestimmten Anwendungsfällen bevorzugt werden, dass beide Zuflüsse auf der Druckseite angeordnet sind, oder jeweils ein Zufluss auf der Druck- und ein Zufluss auf der Gegendruckseite angeordnet ist, was eine "kreuzweise Anordnung" bedeutet. Eine "kreuzweise" Anordnung kann beispielsweise aufgrund festigungstechnischer Überlegungen von Vorteil sein.For the arrangement of the tributaries, insofar as these are provided separately, it is presently preferred that all tributaries, in particular two tributaries in the provision of two separate cooling channels, are located on the counter-pressure side of the piston. An envisaged second cooling nozzle namely requires an additional recess on the piston skirt, or a widening of an existing recess becomes necessary. Under these circumstances, the arrangement of both flows on the counter-pressure side has proven to be advantageous. However, it is also conceivable and may be preferred in certain applications that both inflows are arranged on the pressure side, or in each case an inflow to the pressure and an inflow is arranged on the counter-pressure side, which means a "cross-arrangement". A "crosswise" arrangement may be advantageous, for example due to fastening considerations.
Für getrennte Zu- und/oder Abflüsse hat es sich als vorteilhaft erwiesen, diese in axialer und/oder radialer und/oder in Umfangsrichtung an unterschiedlichen Stellen anzuordnen. Eine derartige axiale Versetzung bedeutet, dass sich eine Zulauföffnung für einen "höheren" Kühlkanal oder Kühlkanalabschnitt entsprechend auf einem höheren Niveau befindet. Hierdurch kann ein nicht immer wünschenswerter rohrförmiger Zulauf in einen höheren Bereich vermieden werden. Durch eine radial getrennte Anordnung von Zu- und/oder Abflüssen kann das zur Verfügung stehende Kolbenmaterial in günstiger Weise für die Ausbildung der Zu- und/oder Abflüsse genutzt werden. Dies gilt in gleicher Weise für den Fall, dass die Zu- und/oder Abflüsse alternativ oder ergänzend zu den vorangehend genannten Maßnahmen in Umfangsrichtung versetzt angeordnet sind.For separate inflows and / or outflows, it has proved to be advantageous to arrange them in different axial and / or radial and / or circumferential directions. Such an axial displacement means that an inlet opening for a "higher" cooling channel or cooling channel section is accordingly at a higher level. As a result, a not always desirable tubular inlet can be avoided in a higher range. By a radially separate arrangement of inflows and / or outflows, the available piston material can be used in a favorable manner for the formation of inflows and / or outflows. This applies in the same way in the event that the inflows and / or outflows are arranged offset in the circumferential direction alternatively or in addition to the above measures.
Bei Versuchen hat sich herausgestellt, dass eine besonders gute Kühlwirkung bei einer Ausführungsform erreicht werden kann, bei der bei einem Kolben mit einer Brennraummulde zumindest ein Kühlkanal im Bereich radial neben der Brennraummulde vorgesehen ist. Mit anderen Worten handelt es sich hierbei um einen Kühlkanal in einem bezüglich der Kolbenachse "oberen", in der Umgebung des Kolbenbodens befindlichen Bereich.In experiments, it has been found that a particularly good cooling effect can be achieved in an embodiment in which, in the case of a piston with a combustion chamber recess, at least one cooling channel is provided in the area radially adjacent to the combustion chamber recess. In other words, this is a cooling channel in a "upper" with respect to the piston axis, located in the vicinity of the piston crown area.
Gegebenenfalls ergänzend hierzu hat es sich als vorteilhaft erwiesen, zumindest einen Kühlkanal in einem Bereich axial unterhalb der Brennraummulde vorzusehen. Dieser Kühlkanal kann beispielsweise im Bereich unterhalb eines äußeren Randes der Brennraummulde angeordnet sein.Optionally, in addition to this, it has proved to be advantageous to provide at least one cooling channel in a region axially below the combustion chamber trough. This cooling channel can be arranged, for example, in the region below an outer edge of the combustion bowl.
Der erfindungsgemäße Kolben entfaltet im Hinblick auf die verbesserte Kühlwirkung bereits als solcher seine Vorteile. Es ergeben sich jedoch besonders günstige Ausgestaltungen in Kombination mit vorteilhaften Öleinspritzanordnungen. Folglich ist auch eine derartige Kombination als Gegenstand der vorliegenden Erfindung zu betrachten.The piston of the invention unfolds in terms of the improved cooling effect already as such its advantages. However, there are particularly favorable embodiments in combination with advantageous oil injection arrangements. Consequently, such a combination is to be regarded as an object of the present invention.
Hierbei wird bevorzugt, dass die Öleinspritzanordnung zumindest zwei Düsen aufweist. In dieser Weise kann die jeweilige Düse für das Einspritzen von Kühlmittel, insbesondere Öl in den jeweiligen Kühlkanal angepasst werden.In this case, it is preferred that the oil injection arrangement has at least two nozzles. In this way, the respective nozzle for the injection of coolant, in particular oil can be adjusted in the respective cooling channel.
Fertigungstechnische Vorteile werden erhalten, wenn die Düsen auf gegenüberliegenden Seiten vorgesehen werden.Manufacturing advantages are obtained when the nozzles are provided on opposite sides.
In diesem Zusammenhang wird derzeit bevorzugt, dass diejenige Düse, die für das Einspritzen von Kühlmittel in einen Kühlkanal im Bereich des Kolbenbodens vorgesehen ist, einen höheren Öldruck erzeugt als andere Düsen. Hierdurch kann in vorteilhafter Weise die Menge des Kühlmittels, insbesondere des Öls, verringert werden.In this context, it is currently preferred that the nozzle which is provided for the injection of coolant into a cooling channel in the region of the piston head, a higher oil pressure than other nozzles. As a result, the amount of coolant, in particular of the oil can be reduced in an advantageous manner.
Alternativ zu der vorangehend beschriebenen Ausführungsform ist es jedoch denkbar, dass der Kolben mit einer Öleinspritzanordnung kombiniert wird, die eine einzige Düse aufweist. Hierdurch ergibt sich ein besonders einfacher Aufbau.As an alternative to the embodiment described above, however, it is conceivable for the piston to be combined with an oil injection arrangement which has a single nozzle. This results in a particularly simple structure.
Um dennoch eine getrennte Befüllung von zwei oder mehr Kühlkanälen zu erreichen, besteht eine bevorzugte Ausführungsform darin, dass die eine vorgesehene Düse zwei oder mehr Austrittskanäle aufweist.In order nevertheless to achieve a separate filling of two or more cooling channels, a preferred embodiment is that the one nozzle provided has two or more outlet channels.
Alternativ hierzu kann ein einfacher Aufbau realisiert werden, indem eine einzige Düse derart schräg angeordnet ist, dass der Kühlmittelstrahl schräg verläuft, so dass dieser, in Abhängigkeit von der Position des Kolbens, in einen oder mehrere unterschiedliche Kühlkanäle eintritt. Durch die schräge Ausbildung eines Kühlmittelstrahles kann das Kühlmittel somit beispielsweise in unterschiedlichen Stellungen des Kolbens zwischen dem oberen und unteren Totpunkt, d.h. in Richtung der Kolbenachse, in unterschiedliche Zulauföffnungen eintreten, die sich in radialer und/oder in Umfangsrichtung an unterschiedlichen Stellen befinden. Mit anderen Worten können in unterschiedlichen Stellungen des Kolbens unterschiedliche Kühlkanäle befüllt werden. Alternativ hierzu ist denkbar, dass der Kühlmittelstrahl lediglich in einer Position, beispielsweise im unteren Totpunkt, in einen Kühlkanal eintritt, und in einer anderen Position, beispielsweise am oberen Totpunkt, der Kühlmittelstrahl auf den Kolbenboden trifft und diesen kühlt. Ein zweiter Kühlkanal kann durch eine eigene Düse befüllt werden.Alternatively, a simple structure can be realized by a single nozzle is arranged obliquely so that the coolant jet is inclined, so that this, depending on the position of the piston, enters one or more different cooling channels. Due to the oblique formation of a coolant jet, the coolant can thus, for example, in different positions of the piston between the top and bottom dead center, i. in the direction of the piston axis, entering different inlet openings, which are located in the radial and / or circumferential direction at different locations. In other words, different cooling channels can be filled in different positions of the piston. Alternatively, it is conceivable that the coolant jet enters into a cooling channel only in one position, for example at bottom dead center, and in another position, for example at top dead center, the coolant jet strikes the piston crown and cools it. A second cooling channel can be filled by its own nozzle.

Erfindungsgemäß ist ein zweiter Kühlkanal 20 auf einem Niveau unterhalb der Brennraummulde 12 und des Bodenkühlkanals 18 vorgesehen. Dieser Kühlkanal wird nachfolgend als Muldenkühlkanal 20 bezeichnet. Er befindet sich nicht nur, wie erwähnt, hinsichtlich der Höhe in Richtung der Kolbenachse auf einem niedrigeren Niveau, sondern ist darüber hinaus an einer radial weiter innenliegenden Position ausgebildet. An dieser Stelle kann dieser Muldenkühlkanal 20 besonders effizient für die Kühlung der heißen Zonen zwischen der Brennraummulde 12 und dem Kolbenbolzenauge 16 sorgen.According to the invention, a
Die Kühlkanäle 18, 20 sind mit Zuflüssen 32, 36 für eine Zuführung von Kühlmittel ausgebildet. Die Zuflüsse 32, 36 verlaufen im Wesentlichen parallel zu Achse des Kolbens 10.The cooling
