Definitions

  • the invention relates to an internal combustion engine piston, particularly for diesel engines, with a bottom part consisting preferably of light metal providing the piston skirt and the gudgeon pin mounting, and, connected separably thereto, a preferably steel upper part comprising the piston crown and the ring zone, the upper part being supported by two concentric annular ribs standing out from the inside of the piston crown.
  • the invention is based on the problem of finding a construction inwhich both the annular ribs projecting from the inside face of the piston crown are rigidly bolted, but in which the lower part nevertheless has to accommodate but few screwed anchorings.
  • this problem is resolved in that between the lower part and the upper part there is an intermediate ring consisting preferably of castiron and of bifurcated cross-section, the base part of which is bolted to the lower part of the piston while its two form parts are bolted to the annular ribs projecting from the inside face of the piston crown.
  • FIG. I is a partial longitudinal section on the line I-I in FIG. 2 through a piston according to the invention.
  • FIG. 2 is a partial cross-section through the piston, on the line II-II in FIG. 1
  • the lower part consisting of an aluminium alloy, is generally designated 1 while the upper parts, made from steel, is identified by reference numeral 2. It consists of the ring zone 3 and a piston crown 4, from the inside face of which projects two concentric annular ribs 5, 6. Through the lower part 1 pass strong screws 7, the ends 8 of which are screwed into the base part 9 of a cross-sectionally bifurcated intermediate ring 10 made from cast-iron.
  • the fork parts 11, 12 of the bifurcated intermediate ring 10 are bolted to the annular ribs 5, 6 which project from the piston crown 4 by means of expanding screws 13, 14 which pass through tubes 15, 16 formed on the fork parts ll, 12.
  • the cavity 17 formed by the bifurcated intermediate ring 10 and the annular ribs 5, 6 is connected to the coolant circuit by transfer ports l8, 19.
  • An internal combustion engine piston including a lightweight metal lower part comprising the piston skirt, a piston crown connected with the piston skirt and comprising the upper part of the piston, which piston crown is formed from steel, two concentric integral annular ribs projecting from the inside face of the piston crown, a piston ring zone surrounding the piston crown, a cross-sectionally Y-shaped bifurcated annular intermediate ring of cast iron located between the upper and lower piston part, said ring including fork parts mating with said annular ribs respectively and a base part mating with said lower piston part, at least one tube formed on each fork part of the ring, an expanding screw provided in each tube for bolting the two fork parts of said intermediate ring to the annular ribs, and further screws in a single circular arrangement located in the piston skirt and connected to said base part for bolting the base part of the intermediate ring to the lower part of the piston.
