Definitions

  • ABSTRACT A multi-piece piston assembly including a skirt defining portion and a head defining portion which interfit to provide wrist pin bores in registry for receiving a wrist pin, the skirt defining and head defining portions being composed of a metal having good thermal conductivity such as an aluminum alloy, together with a bridge member which is anchored in the skirt defining portion in the region of the thrust faces to provide thermal expansion control at the top of the skirt portion and to provide additional mechanical strength.
  • the present invention relates to a piston assembly composed of a skirt defining portion which has opposed thrust faces and a separate head defining portion including a crown, a ring belt and grooves therein for receiving piston rings, the skirt defining portion and the head defining portion being disposed in interfitting relationship to define a wrist pin bore extending through both the skirt defining and the head defining portions.
  • a bridge or strut member has its ends anchored in the opposed thrust faces and has a medial portion in confronting relation to the under side of the crown, the bridge member having a coefficient of thermal expansion less than that of the skirt defining portion.
  • the marginal edges of the medial portion of the bridge member are spaced from the interior of the crown portion, and one or more apertures are provided in the bridge member to permit oil to come into contact with view being taken looking through the wrist pin bore; and
  • FIG. 2 is a cross sectional view taken in a plane 90 from the view of FIG. 1.
  • the head defining portion 10 and the skirt defining portion ll are preferably composed of a lightweight, heat transmitting metal such as an aluminum alloy.
  • the head defining portion 10 includes a recessed crown portion 12 having a conical portion l3'centrally thereof as is common with some types of heavy duty pistons.
  • the head defining portion 10 includes a ring belt area 14 into which piston ring receiving grooves 15 and 16 are provided in the usual manner.
  • the uppermost piston ring may be received in a groove 17 provided in a ring groove reinforcement 18 composed of cast iron or the like.
  • such piston ring groove reinforcements may be received within a circumferential groove 19 in tight mechanical engagement, with the junction between the reinforcement 18 and the groove being substantially devoid of metallurgical bonding.
  • the reinforcement ring 18 may also include non-planar opposed faces including raised portions thereon and having an area to weight ratio of at least square inches of ring in contact with the piston per pound of ring, thereby reducing the temperature differential between the reinforcement l8 and the piston in service.
  • the crown portion of the piston head has an upwardly bowed underside indicated at reference numeral 20 in the drawings. It also has a depending portion 21 formed.
  • the skirt forming portion 11 includes a skirt 23 and a wrist pin bore 24 which is coaxial with the wrist bore 22 of the head forming portion when the head forming portion and the wrist forming portion are placed in interfitting engagement as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2.
  • Grooves 25 and 26 are provided in the wrist pin bore 24 for receiving the locking rings (not shown) of the wrist pin assembly itself.
  • a circumferential groove 27 is provided between the head forming portion 10 and the skirt forming portion 11, together with a space 29 to accommodate relative movement between the two parts.
  • a port 30 is provided to provide escape for oil wiped off the cylinder wall by the piston rings, the oil finding its way to the engine oil sump through the clearance provided between the two parts of the piston.
  • a bridge or strut member 31 having an upwardly bowed medial portion 32 along which are formed a pair of upwardly extending flange portions 33 and 34 as best seen in FIG. 2.
  • the bridge member 31 is composed of steel or other material having a coefficient of thermal expansion lower than the aluminum alloy of which the head and skirt forming portions are formed.
  • the extreme ends of the bridge member 31 may be provided with fingers or tabs 35 to facilitate anchoring the ends of the bridge member 31 in the metal through which a partial wrist pin bore 22 is of the skirt forming portion 11, in the vicinity of the thrust faces'36 and 37.
  • the fingers 35 are held in position by having the front of the skirt cast around them.
  • the bridge member 31 is also provided with one or more apertures 38 so that upon each downstroke of the piston, oil enters a cooling chamber 39 provided between the top of the bridge member 31 and the underside of the crown portion of the piston. On each downstroke of the piston, oil enters the chamber 39 and is thrown against the underside20 of the piston head. On each upstroke of the piston, the oil, which has absorbed heat from the piston crown escapes through the spaces 40 existing between the upturned medial flange portions 33 and 34 and the confronting side wall of the piston head.
  • the bridge member 31 with its lower rate of thermal expansion than the aluminum piston body restricts the amount of thermal expansion of the aluminum piston skirt.
  • the reduced skirt clearance thus provided reduces the noise generated when the top of the skirt contacts alternate sides of the cylinder bore when the side thrust loads reverse direction.
  • the reduced skirt clearance also reduces the .rate of cavitation erosion which occurs on the'outer diameter of wet cylinder liners of the type used in heavy duty engines.
  • the bridge member 31 also provides additional strength at the top of the skirt to enableit to carry the side thrust loads encountered in mounted engines without excessive deflection orfailure.
  • the head forming portion and the skirt forming portion are retained in their proper working positions with respect to each other by the wrist pin and the cylinder bore, but each element is free to rotate about the wrist pin to the extent permitted by the clearance between the cylinder bore and the outside diameters of each of the elements.
  • the presence of the bridge member further provides the strength required to resist the side thrust loads and provides thermal expansion control at the top of the skirt while also providing additional strength.
  • a two-piece metal piston assembly comprising a skirt defining portion having opposed thrust faces thereon, a separate head defining portion-having a crown and depending wrist pin bosses and having grooves for receiving piston rings, said skirt defining portion and said head defining portion being aligned to provide a wrist pin bore extending through said portions, and a metal bridge member having its ends anchored in said opposed thrust faces, said bridge member having a coefficient of thermal expansion less than that of said skirt defining portion, said bridge member having a large surface area and having oil-retaining upturned marginal edges facing said crown and being in closely spaced relation to the crown and to the inner, opposing faces of the wrist pin bosses, the space between the bridge member and the underside of the crown defining a cooling chamber, said bridge member having an aperture therein permitting entry of oil into said cooling chamber upon the downward stroke of said piston.
