PATCHgOF RiroN, wisconsm V msmon" fba ipncatioil mea riip 'ae, was; Serial leg-373m i i This invention relatestofa composite pis ton and particularly to, such a'pi'ston which maybe used; in internal combustion engines. {It hashe'retofore been; proposed to" construct pistons for internal" combustion en'- gines in which the" main body of thepiston is made of "some of the lighter metals such as aluminum and agnesium, or alloys of these metals; Because of their light weight and high coeflicient' of heat conductivity such metals or alloys have certain advan-' tagesovfercast iron and other heavier Inetf als in such pistons; *However', those advan tagesare atleast partially ofisetby the fact that the lighter metals are: generallyfsofter and aresubject to rapid wear when work ing in a cast iron engine cylinder. To over come this disadvantage to the "use'i'oif light V. as their 7 alloys, is considerably greater than that of cast iron andother he'ayy, we r-resistiii'g metals, it has frequently happened i i flm qee l. pe i xfl e t the changes in temperature to which fpijstons of, internal combustion engines are isjubj ect' ed; either one 'or the other of the partsg'or corn damaged. i
