  • Table 1 shows an example of general characteristics of an aluminum alloy (a base metal of the piston body 2) and carbon (graphite or carbon black).
  • Carbon (graphite or carbon black) in the low heat conducting portion 3 is a low heat conductive material and has a lower thermal conductivity than an aluminum alloy that is a material (base metal) of the piston body 2. Therefore, the low heat conducting portion 3 is located between the combustion chamber 11 and the piston body 2 and functions as a heat insulating layer.

To suppress. Therefore, the thermal efficiency of engine 100 can be improved. Carbon has a smaller heat capacity (product of specific heat and density) per unit volume than the aluminum alloy that is the material of the piston body 2, in other words, volume specific heat. In general, the temperature conductivity of a solid is inversely proportional to the volume specific heat. Therefore, the low thermal conductivity portion 3 has a property that the temperature conductivity is less likely to be small (even if the thermal conductivity is low) compared to the piston body 2.
  • the temperature conductivity of the surface of the piston head 4 in contact with the gas in the combustion chamber 11 (low heat conduction portion 3) is large, the surface temperature easily follows the temperature of the gas in the combustion chamber 11. Thus, the heat loss in the cylinder 10 (combustion chamber 11) can be reduced by reducing the difference between the two temperatures.
  • the low heat conduction part 3 has a gap 31 inside.
  • the air gap 31 has an extremely low thermal conductivity and an extremely small volume specific heat. Therefore, since the heat conductivity is lower as a whole (on average) in the low heat conduction section 3, heat transfer from the gas in the combustion chamber 11 to the piston head 4 (piston body 2) can be further reduced. . Further, since the specific heat of the volume of the low heat conducting portion 3 as a whole becomes smaller, the temperature conductivity of the low heat conducting portion 3 can be made larger than that of the piston main body 2, thereby the surface temperature of the piston head 4 and the combustion chamber 11. The difference with the gas temperature inside can be made smaller. Note that the size of the gap 31 is arbitrary. The number of voids 31 is arbitrary, and may be one, for example. In this embodiment, since there are a plurality of gaps 31, the above effects can be improved.
  • the carbon in the low heat conduction part 3 includes graphite.
  • Graphite has a layered crystal structure in which carbons of SP2 hybrid orbitals are bonded to each other, and is excellent in lubricity. That is, graphite is generally used as a solid lubricant because it has an anisotropic layered structure with a low bonding force between crystal planes and is easily sheared by friction. As is clear from this, even if a part of the low heat conducting portion 3 falls into the cylinder 10, the graphite in this part functions as a lubricant, and the cylinder 10 and the piston 1 (piston body) 2) Wear can be suppressed.
  • the low thermal conductive portion 3 is formed of a high hardness material (for example, ceramic such as zirconia).
  • the ratio of the graphite in the carbon in the low heat conductive part 3 is arbitrary, for example, may be less than 50 volume%.
  • carbon contains 50% by volume or more of graphite. Therefore, the above effect can be improved.
  • carbon has high heat resistance represented by melting point and is excellent in durability. Therefore, the durability of the low heat conduction part 3 can be improved.

  • the function of the low heat conduction part 3 By improving the strength of the low heat conduction part 3 and suppressing the chipping and collapse thereof, the function of the low heat conduction part 3 can be maintained for a longer period of time. Engineering plastics have high heat resistance. For this reason, the durability of the low heat conducting portion 3 can be further improved.
  • the low heat conductive part 3 does not need to contain a binder. Even if the low heat conducting portion 3 is chipped or collapsed and falls into the cylinder 10, wear of the cylinder 10 and the piston 1 (piston body 2) is suppressed as described above.
  • the gap 31 is between a plurality of carbon chunks (and binders). Since the average particle diameter of the carbon lump is 20 ⁇ m or more, a relatively large void 31 is formed. Therefore, since the heat conductivity becomes lower and the volume specific heat becomes smaller as a whole of the low heat conducting portion 3, the above effects can be improved. Since the average particle diameter of the carbon lump is 100 ⁇ m or less, the contact area between the solid materials is suppressed from becoming excessively small. Therefore, the strength of the low heat conducting portion 3 can be improved and the chipping or collapse can be more easily suppressed. Since the average particle size of the lump is 50 ⁇ m or less, the above effect can be improved.

  • it is not necessary to provide a drying process in particular the coating film may be naturally dried). In this manner, the void 31 can be easily formed by mixing the vaporizing component (substance) in the forming material.
  • Some of the plurality of voids 31 are closed on the combustion chamber 11 side in the low heat conducting section 3. Air or solvent gas is confined in the first gap 311. Since convection hardly occurs inside the first gap 311, the heat insulating property of the low heat conducting portion 3 is improved. Further, intrusion of unburned fuel from the combustion chamber 11 into the first gap 311 is suppressed. Thereby, deterioration of exhaust gas performance is suppressed.

  • the piston main body 2 is installed so that the piston head 4 is on the lower side in the vertical direction, preferably without leaving an excessive interval. Specifically, the crown surface 400 is directed downward in the vertical direction.
  • the adhesive penetrates into the coating film through the opening of the gap 31 (second gap 312), and is cured by moisture in the coating process in the process. Since the piston head 4 is on the lower side in the vertical direction, the adhesive stays on one side in the axial direction of the coating film (on the combustion chamber 11 side) due to gravity and hardens at that position. Adhesive cyanoacrylate is polymerized on the combustion chamber 11 side of the coating film to form a coating film (sealing film) while leaving a gap 31 on the other axial side of the coating film (piston body 2 side). The opening on the combustion chamber 11 side of the gap 31 is closed with the sealing film.

As described above, the second gap 312 can be reduced and the first gap 311 can be increased. Since the gap 31 is on the first layer 301 side, the thermal conductivity of the first layer 301 is lower than that of the second layer 302. In other words, the thermal conductivity on the combustion chamber 11 side (second layer 302) is higher than that on the piston main body 2 side (first layer 301) of the low heat conducting section 3.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un piston pour un moteur à combustion interne, permettant de réduire au minimum l'usure du cylindre ou du piston. Le piston pour un moteur à combustion interne comporte un corps principal et une partie à faible conductivité thermique. Le corps principal, en alliage d'aluminium, comporte une tête de piston, un bossage de piston et une jupe de piston. La partie à faible conductivité thermique est située du côté chambre de combustion de la tête de piston, et comprend du carbone, et/ou du nitrure de bore, et/ou du disulfure de molybdène. La partie à faible conductivité thermique présente un espace vide à son intérieur. Le piston pour un moteur à combustion interne est muni d'une partie corps principal en alliage d'aluminium. La partie corps principal comporte une partie tête de piston, et une partie bossage de piston et une partie jupe de piston disposées du côté de la partie tête de piston opposée à la chambre de combustion du moteur à combustion interne. Le piston est muni en outre d'une partie à faible conductivité thermique disposée du côté de la tête de piston adjacent à la chambre de combustion du moteur à combustion interne ; ladite partie est formée à partir d'un matériau à faible conductivité thermique contenant du carbone, du nitrure de bore ou du disulfure de molybdène, et elle comporte un espace vide à son intérieur.
