the joint between these two different sized liners under the action of heat and friction developed within the combustion chamber being avoided. The springs 32 are merely illustrative of one form of resilient means for urging liner 8 toward liner 4. Obviously equivalent resilient means can be employed.
Fig. 2 shows a construction in which the liner wall thickness than the liner with the larger diameter, and yet be resiliently pressed without harm against an intermediate connecting mem ber. In this figure the water jacket is shown at 42, in which liner 44, of small diameter and little wall thickness, is axially aligned with liner 46, of larger diameter and greater wall thick- The two liners are interconnected by intermediate member 48 which is freely and longitudinally slidable within jacket 42 and which normally bears against an annular flange 58 projecting inwardly from the inner wall of jacket 42. Liner 44 is provided with an annular flange 52 which slidably bears against embossment 54 on the inner surface of jacket 42. Springs 56 extend between the end wall of the jacket 42 and the flange 52 for urging the flange and the liner 44 against connecting member 48. In a similar manner liner 46 is provided with annular flange 58 which slidably bears against embossment 68 on the inner surface of jacket 42, said flange and liner being resiliently urged toward intermediate member 48 by springs 62. Springs 62 are made stronger than springs 56 so that intermediate member 48 is normally tightly engaged against flange 50. In this construction, the connection between the ends of liners 44 and 46 and the intermediate member is made in the nature of a ball and socket joint, the cylindrical surfaces having center points C and C, respectively, which lie on the longitudinal axis of the liners 44 and 46, and respectively directed towards the ends of the liners away from the connecting member 48. This allows displacement of the liners transversely of the longitudinal axis thereof without breaking the joint between the liners and the intermediate member 48. Longitudinal movement of the member, of course, is provided for through the resilient action of the springs 56 and 62, respectively.
Fig. 3 shows a construction which is similar to Fig. 2, except that instead of using the mov able intermediate member 48, a fixed intermediate member 12 is used. Member 12 constitutes a diaphragm integral with jacket 42, said diaphragm being bored at its center to make an opening continuous with the liner 44. On the surface of diaphragm l2 and surrounding the boring centrally thereof is an annular wall 14 which provides a means for holding the liner 44 andthe packing 16 in place. face of diaphragm 12 a similar wall 18 holds liner 46 and packing 80 in place. Thus the resilient pressure applied to liners 44 and 46 is independent of the pressure applied to the other liner. The fundamental requirement lies in the selection of a suitable packing for 16 and 88. These liners must be exactly aligned in the beginning so that no displacement transversely of the longitudinal axis can take place through distortions under the heat of the combustion On the opposite toward said end wall.
chamber. In this respect, the walls "and El ensure that the longitudinal alignment of the liner is maintained.
The invention provides a very simple construction in which the liners of an internal combustion engine ,employing pistons of different size can be kept sealed with respect to each other and with respect to the fluid contained in the cooling chamber.
Havingnow described the means by which the objects of the invention are obtained;

1.
