摘要:
A bearing cap (10, 110, 210, 310, 410, 510) made from sintered powder metal has integrally formed tapered bosses (40, 140, 240, 340, 440, 540) surrounding its bolt holes (26, 126, 226, 326, 426, 526) which extend into counterbores (L) in the engine bearing bulkhead structure (B) and produce plastic conformance between the bosses (40, 140, 240, 340, 440, 540) and the bulkhead (B) when the boss (40, 140, 240, 340, 440, 540) is seated in the counterbore (L). The bearing cap (10, 110, 210, 310, 410, 510) can then be removed from the bulkhead (B) for installation of the crankshaft and reinstalled in the identical preformed position. The bosses (40, 140, 240, 340, 440, 540) are tapered, a moat (44, 144, 244, 344, 444, 544) surrounds each boss (40, 140, 240, 340, 440, 540), and the boss (40, 140, 240, 340, 440, 540) may be provided with axial splines (160, 460) and/or be oblong (540) in the axial direction. Voids (V1-V4) may also be formed in the planar surfaces of the feet (T, 22, 522) which abut the bulkhead (B).

A piston for an internal combustion engine includes an insert defining an air chamber opening into the combustion chamber. The insert is preformed to a desired configuration and the piston cast around the insert thus providing a means of securing the insert within the structure of the piston. The insert may be located wholly within the piston or may have a flange part which extends over an outer surface of the piston.

摘要:
Present day diesel engines having aluminum piston assemblies are limited to combustion chamber pressures of approximately 12,410 kPa (1,800 psi) whereas the desire is the increase such pressures up to the 15,170 kPa (2,200 psi) range. To reach such levels the instant piston assembly includes a steel piston member having an upper cylindrical portion defining a top surface, a depending tubular wall and an annular cooling recess having one or more machined surfaces or revolution about a central axis. The cooling recess is located beneath the top surface and juxtaposed to the top ring groove for removing heat away therefrom in use. The piston member is preferably forged and subsequently machined to precisely controllable dimensions. Moreover, the piston assembly is preferably of the articulated type and includes a forged aluminum piston skirt connected to the piston member through a common wrist pin.

This pre-chamber type engine is provided with pre-chambers (2) formed in the cavities in piston bodies (8), and head plates (4) consisting of a material of a high thermal resistance the thermal expansion coefficient of which is substantially equal to that of the piston bodies and fixed to the piston bodies. The fuel injection nozzles (10) project into the insert bores (7) made in the head plates when the pistons are in positions in the vicinity of the top dead centers. The communication ports (9) formed in the head plates extend in the portions thereof which are around the insert bores diagonally with respect to the axes of cylinders, and are spaced from one another in the circumferential direction thereof. The communication ports are formed so that the axes thereof are inclined in the direction opposite to the direction in which the swirl currents in the main chambers flow with the direction in which the gaseous mixture is ejected from the pre-chambers into the main chambers in agreement with that in which the swirl currents in the main chambers flow. Accordingly, the ejection currents from the pre-chambers into the main chambers enable the mixing thereof with fresh air to be promoted by utilizing the swirl currents in the cylinders.
摘要:
A hydraulic brake piston (11) is formed of a clay based ceramic or conventional ceramic material, such as a kaolin based ceramic with a low thermal conductivity. The piston (11) may be incorporated in a disc brake assembly comprising a caliper body (10) provided with a cylinder which receives the piston (11). Hydraulic brake fluid is introduced under pressure into the space (12) within the body (10) to displace the piston from the body and into contact with a disc pad (14). The ceramic piston retards heat transfer from the disc pad into the brake fluid thus reducing the cause for vapour lock.
