  • the present invention is aimed at elimination of above shorcomings, i.e. at the realization of an improved piston ring device ensuring better sealing between the piston and cylinder for a much longer life than the known solutions.
  • the piston ring device described in the introductory part was used as starting point, machined as a split circular ring which when built in, sits by way of self-tensioning in the piston's ring groove and tightly fits the cylinder wall.

  • the piston ring device has a triangular central split ring element the outer cylinder mantle of which tigtly fits the cylinder wall, while its upper and lower tapered surfaces coact with the tapered surfaces of the second and third ring elements by forcing the external ring element radially ourward, furthermore, the end-faces of the second and third ring elements rest on the upper and lower front walls of the ring groove.
  • the two split ring elements are identically shaped and turned opposite each other in built in state, and a prestressed elastic element e.g. an end ⁇ less annular coil spring is built between the opposite tapered surfaces of the ring elements.
  • the two ring elements are axially spaced from each other, or in given case pro ⁇ vided with ducts to clear away the oil. This simiplifies the manufacture and building in.

  • Fig.2 and 4 present the lower ring element 11, while Fig.3 and 5 the upper ring element 10.
  • Comparison of Fig.2 and 3 reveals, that a gap 15 formed when splitting the lower ring element 11 was selected much bigger than a gap 14 of the upper ring element 10 in order to facilitate the building in.
  • Partition of the lower ring ele ⁇ ment 11 before building in is shown with dashed line in Fig.l). It is evident that the ring elements 10 and 11 are elastically deformable in the process of building in.
  • Fig.4 and 5 Comparison of Fig.4 and 5 reveals that the ring elements 10 and 11 in this case have the tapered surfaces 12 and 13 of identical cone angle 16, where the constituent in radial section is straight.

(The same thermal expansion gap exists between a lower end-face of the ring element 10 and the lower end plate 8 of the ring groove 3 as mentione in connection with the ring element 11) .
