Abstract

A part of the bowl 18 in the crown 12 of the piston is insulated, with the insulation being at the surfaces 24 towards which the injector jets 22 are aimed. The insulation helps to maintain a high temperature at these surfaces and thus to reduce the ignition delay. The insulation is provided by a cast iron, steel, titanium or ceramic cast-in annular insert 26 which may be integral with a ring support insert 28. <IMAGE>

Description

SPECIFICATION Piston for an internal combusion engine This invention relates to a piston for an internal combustion engine, and particularly to a piston for a direct injection diesel engine.
Diesel engines have a reputation for being noisy. This noise arises from a number of sources, one of which is combustion noise. It is highly desirable to be able to reduce this noise.
It is known that reductions in diesel engine combustion noise can be achieved by reducing ignition delay and retarding the injection timing. The ignition delay is dependent on fuel and air temperature-the higher the temperature the shorter the delay. One way of increasing the temperature in the combustion chamber of a diesel engine is to insulate the walls of the combustion chamber.
It has however been found that complete insulation of the chamber has two undesirable effects. These are firstly reduced volumetric efficiency and secondly increased NOX ignition levels.
According to the present invention, there is provided a piston for a direct injection diesel engine, the piston having a chamber formed in the piston crown with the walls of the chamber being insulated in those regions towards which fuel is injected, in use, from an injector jet.
This step serves to keep at a relatively high temperature the points at which the incoming fuel will be directed, so that the fuel is vapourised early, thus reducing ignition delay.
Preferably the other surfaces of the combustion chamber are uninsulated.
Preferably the insulation of the piston chamber will be arranged in an annular ring around the chamber wall. However the actual position of the insulator will depend on the shape of the combustion chamber and on the positioning and direction of the fuel injectors. The necessary insulation can be achieved by the use of a material of low thermal conductivity inserted into the piston in the appropriate areas. Suitable materials include cast iron, steel, titanium and ceramics.
In a particulariy advantageous embodiment, a cast-in insulating insert can be linked to a top piston ring insert to assist retention of the insulating material in the appropriate place in the piston chamber.
The invention will now be further described, by way of example, with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which: Figure 1 is a section through a piston in accordance with the invention; Figure 2 is a plan view of the piston shown in Fig. 1; Figure 3 is a section through an alternative form of piston in accordance with the invention; and Figure 4 is a plan view of the piston of Fig.
3.
Fig. 1 shows a piston 10 which has a crown 12 and a bore 14 for a gudgeon pin.
Near to the top of the piston are two annular grooves 16 for receiving piston rings in a known manner.
The piston crown 12 includes a bowl 18 which acts as a combustion chamber. A fuel injector 20 is mounted in the cylinder wall (not shown). The piston 10 will move up and down in a cylinder relative to the injector 20.
At the appropriate point in the engine cycle the relative positions of the injector 20 and the piston 10 will be as shown in Fig. 1. At this point, fuel is injected into the bowl 18, in jets 22. As is known, these jets will be fine jets and there may, for example, be four or five such jets angularly spaced from one another.
The jets 22 are directed towards wall portions 24 of the bowl, and these wall portions are formed by the surface of an insulating body 26 which is in fact annular, as can be seen from Fig. 2. The insulating body 26 can be in the form of an insert which may be made of cast iron, steel, titanium, ceramics or any other suitable material of low thermal conductivity. The presence of this body thus serves to maintain a relatively high local temperature on the wall surfaces 24 of the chamber and the result of this is that the fuel 22 is vapourised earlier than would otherwise be the case because of the increased local temperatures. Although the fuel is directed towards the walls 24, it probably vapourises before it actually reaches the walls.The result of the increased temperature produced by the presence of the insulating body 26 is to reduce the ignition delay without adversely affecting volumetric efficiency and NOX emission.
Fig. 3 shows one way in which the insert 26 can be held in place. It is known to provide in a piston an insert 28 to support the top piston ring. As shown in Fig. 2, the materials of the insert 28 can be the same as the material of the insert 26, and these two inserts can be linked through suitably placed bores in the top of the piston so as to form connecting legs 30. The inserts 26 and 28 are thus formed in a single casting operation, together with the legs 30. This provides an effective means of securing the insert 26 in the bowl 18.
The invention is applicable to any form of direct injection chamber shape including re-entrant type bowls, and also extends to injectors with any number of holes.
