Abstract:
In the manufacture of plastic articles, particularly thermoset plastic sheets having good optical properties, by a process which involves forming the article on a surface to which the article tends to adhere, numerous and important advantages are realized by using, as a release agent which facilitates removal of the article from the surface, a salt of an addition product of a lower alkylene oxide which can be prepared by the fixation of a lower alkylene oxide on an organic material having a group reactive therewith, such as, alcohols, acids and amides, and subjecting the resulting product to esterification and neutralization.
Abstract:
A constructed piston 1 is comprised of an upper part 2 produced from forged steel, and a bottom part 3, said parts being joined with the expansion screws 4. The bottom part 3 consists of a forged part 6 produced from steel, with the bosses 7 and an approximately tubular shaft extension 5 consisting of an iron material, said extension being joined with the part 6 by welding. In the lower zone of the shaft extension 5, the latter has a collar 8 that can be worked for the purpose of adjusting a piston weight within the tolerance range.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a clamping device for a piston to be mounted, said clamping device being actuated mainly in the direction of pressure/counter-pressure, whereby the whole initial pressure is increased, resulting in greater anti-loosening safety. To that end two screws are placed very close to each other on each side of the piston, one pair being on the pressure side of the piston and the other pair on the counter-pressure side. Both screw pairs have on each side a common pressure member.
Abstract:
The piston for use in an internal combustion engine, more especially a diesel engine, is provided with a piston barrel consisting of light metal and a head plate which consists of a metal having a lesser thermal conductivity but a greater high-temperature strength, for example steel. The head plate is fastened to the piston barrel with the aid of retaining screws, which extend parallel to the piston axis and are preferably designed as expansion screws. The head plate is supported against the piston barrel only by a ring-shaped rib along a narrow ring rib through which the retaining screws pass. A radially outwardly widening gap is left free between the opposite faces of the ring-shaped rib formed on the head plate and the ring rib of the piston barrel at room temperature and when the retaining screws have not yet been tightened. The surface of the ring rib of the piston barrel is convexly curved in the radial direction.The proposed curvature of the surface of the ring rib of the piston barrel has the advantage that the adjoining ring rib surface of the head plate finds for each oblique position an areal seating on the ring surface of the ring rib of the piston barrel.Due to the proposed curvature of the lower gap surface, a smaller gap dimension can be chosen over the entire radial gap length than in the case of a gap consisting of plane surfaces.
