Abstract:
A piston for an internal combustion engine has a piston crown, a circumferential fire land, a circumferential ring part having annular grooves, and a piston skirt, which comprises two skirt walls and two box walls set back from the ring part and connecting the skirt walls in such a way that an exposed underside of the ring part is formed in the area of each of the box walls. The box walls are provided with pin bosses having pin bores. At least one support element is arranged between each exposed underside of the ring part and the box wall associated with the underside of the ring part.
Abstract:
The invention relates to an assembled piston (1) for an internal combustion engine, said piston consisting of an upper part (4) and a lower part (5) that are interconnected by means of an internal hexagon screw (6) consisting of an upper half(37) and a lower half (38). The upper half (37) of the internal hexagon screw (6) comprises an external thread (39) which is parallel to the external thread (40) of the lower screw half (38) and has a larger lead angle than the same (40). The lead angle resulting from the difference between the lead angles of the two external threads (39, 40) is very small and contributes to a high strength of the screw connection.
Abstract:
A piston for an internal combustion engine, comprising a piston head having a piston crown, a circumferential top land, and a circumferential ring belt having ring grooves. At least one ring groove is provided with a ring insert. A circumferential depression is provided in the top land, above the ring belt.
Abstract:
A piston for an internal combustion engine with a separate head and skirt which are joined by a piston pin. The ring belt extends downward from the head and terminates above the pin. The space between the lower edge of the ring belt and a section of the head defines a cooling oil ring space. A depression is formed in the head and is partly defined by the section. The section has a thickness of between four percent and seven percent of the piston diameter, corresponding to an angle of zero to sixty degrees of the section with respect to a vertical longitudinally extending line. The thickness of the head above the space is six percent to twelve percent of the piston diameter. The top of the space is below the top ring groove. Above the second ring groove, the ring belt has a thickness of greater than two and one-half percent of the piston diameter.
Abstract:
A piston for an internal combustion engine has a piston crown, a circumferential top land, and a circumferential ring belt having ring grooves, as well as having a piston skirt that has two skirt walls disposed on the major thrust side and the minor thrust side of the piston, and two box walls, set back with regard to the ring belt, that connect the skirt walls. The box walls have pin bosses with pin bores. The skirt wall disposed on the major thrust side is shorter, in a circumference direction of the piston, than the skirt wall disposed on the minor thrust side.
Abstract:
A piston with a cooling channel having a basic piston barrel made from forged steel and a box-shaped shaft, bosses and boss supports and connecting walls between the boss supports as well as a combustion trough. The piston increases the rigidity of the ring part. To accomplish this, the piston has a wall extending all around above the boss bores. A structural component is welded in between the wall and the piston head and limits the cooling channel. This design increases the rigidity of the ring part in pistons.
Abstract:
The invention concerns a method of producing a one-part piston which, in the region of the piston ring zone, has a closed cooling duct and a recess between the piston ring zone and the box-shaped piston body. The method comprises the following steps: a piston blank is produced by a forging process; the annular recess is produced by machining, the axial height of the recess corresponding at least to the axial height of the cooling duct; the cooling duct, which is open at the bottom, is produced by machining; hub bores are formed and the outer contour of the piston is finished; and the cooling duct, which is open at the bottom, is closed by a two-part cover ring.
Abstract:
A piston for an internal combustion engine has a piston head that has a circumferential cooling channel as well as a combustion bowl having a circumferential bowl wall that makes a transition into a piston crown by way of a bowl edge region. The combustion bowl is formed at least in part by a piston base body and the bowl wall is formed at least in part from an insert. The insert is connected with the piston base body by means of beam welding. A lower weld seam is configured in the bowl wall, which seam encloses an acute angle with the piston center axis (M) and ends in the lower half of the cooling channel. An upper weld seam runs from the cooling channel ceiling to the piston crown and is disposed centered or radially offset toward the outside, with reference to the clear width of the cooling channel.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a piston (10) for an internal combustion engine, comprising a piston crown (13), a circumferential fire land (14), a circumferential ring part (15) having annular grooves, and a piston skirt (16), which comprises two skirt walls (17) and two box walls (18) set back from the ring part (15) and connecting the skirt walls (17) in such a way that an exposed underside (25) of the ring part (15) is formed in the area of each of the box walls (18), wherein the box walls (18) are provided with pin bosses (19) having pin bores (21). According to the invention, at least one support element (26a, 26b) is arranged between each exposed underside (25) of the ring part (15) and the box wall (18) associated with said underside of the ring part.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a piston (10) for an internal combustion engine having a piston head (11) and a piston skirt (16) with piston hubs (17) which are each connected to a hub bore (18) for receiving a piston bolt, wherein the piston hubs (17) are in the shape of a trapezoidal or step-shaped support in which the inner faces (19) of the piston hubs (17) include an acute angle (αa) with the central axis (M) of the piston. The invention provides that each hub bore (18) is embodied as a shaped bore which is widened at least in its inner area in such a way that the widened portion increases in size in the direction of the inner end (18′) of the hub bore (18) forming facets (120, 220) on the lateral surface (18) of the hub bore (18), and that the facets (120, 220) include an acute angle (αa, β) with the central axis (M) of the piston.
