Abstract

967,046. Piston packing. MUSKEGON PISTON RING CO. April 9, 1963, No 14119/63. Heading F2T. A piston ring expander-spacer 10 comprises circumferentially spaced spacer elements of generally rectangular tubular cross-section interconnected by webs 16. The expander-spacer 10 is formed from a sheet metal blank 12, Fig. 1, comprising webs 16, tangs 18 and loops 14 which are bent laterally along the lines 24a, 24b, 26a and 26b so that the edges 28a and 28b abut one another and the loops form tubular spacer elements having open ends 30 as shown in Fig. 3. The radial portions 22a, 22b of the spacer elements form seats for split rings or rails 40, Fig. 4, which are urged outwardly into contact with the cylinder wall 48 and against the sides of the ring groove 43 by the inclined ends 34 of the tangs 18. In a modification, Fig. 7, the connecting webs 116 are on the outer peripheral surface and the ends 123a, 123b of the spacer elements are on the inner peripheral surface of the expander-spacer. In a further modification, Fig. 11, a small space 221 is left between the ends 223a and 223b.
