Kolben für einen Verbrennungsmotor und Verbrennungsmotor mit einem Kolben  Piston for an internal combustion engine and internal combustion engine with a piston
TECHNISCHES GEBIET TECHNICAL AREA
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Kolben für einen The invention relates to a piston for a
Verbrennungsmotor sowie einen Verbrennungsmotor mit einem Kolben. Internal combustion engine and an internal combustion engine with a piston.
Auf dem Gebiet der Verbrennungsmotoren, in denen sich Kolben in Zylindern oder Zylinderlaufbuchsen bewegen und zusammen mit weiteren Komponenten den Brennraum definieren, ist es unter bestimmten Umständen üblich, die Kolben mit In the field of internal combustion engines, in which pistons move in cylinders or cylinder liners and define together with other components the combustion chamber, it is common in certain circumstances, the piston with
beispielsweise ringförmigen Kühlkanälen zu versehen, und in diese mittels einer oder mehreren Düsen Kühlmittel, For example, to provide annular cooling channels, and in this by means of one or more nozzles coolant,
beispielsweise Kühlöl, einzuspritzen. Es versteht sich, dass es unter keinen Umständen zu einem zu geringen Freiraum zwischen der Kühlöldüse und jeglichen Teilen des Kolbens oder sogar einer Kollision zwischen diesen Bauteilen kommen darf. Dementsprechend ist es bislang erforderlich, das Kolbendesign an gegebenenfalls geänderte Positionen der Kühlöldüsen anzupassen. Dies kann wirtschaftlich deshalb besonders aufwändig sein, weil vollständige Gusswerkzeuge neu erzeugt werden müssen. For example, cooling oil to inject. It will be understood that under no circumstances may there be too little clearance between the cooling oil nozzle and any parts of the piston or even a collision between these components. Accordingly, it has hitherto been necessary to adapt the piston design to optionally changed positions of the cooling oil nozzles. This can be particularly costly because economic because complete casting tools must be recreated.
