Abstract:
A hermetic type compressor that includes a cylinder having a compression chamber with a cylinder head coupled to the cylinder to seal the compression chamber. A fastener fastened to the cylinder couples the cylinder head to the cylinder. A fastening hole is formed in the cylinder into which the fastener is received. A bush may be disposed between the fastener and fastener hole. The fastener may be made of a material having a thermal expansion coefficient less than that of the cylinder. Additionally, the bush may be made of a material having a thermal expansion coefficient greater than that of the cylinder.
Abstract:
A rotary vane compressor having features for reducing sound emitted from the compressor during operation. The sound reduction features include and relate to specific components of the compressor. Specifically the features relate to (1) the compressor motor; (2) a non-vented motor housing and back or closure; (3) the inlet ring; (4) the bearing system; (5) the rotor and vane positioning and vane weight or mass; (6) the mass of the body within which the rotor and vane rotate; and (7) a shroud which surrounds the body which is solid and non-vented solid and may be formed of a laminated material having a sound dampening core layer.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a bearing cover (1) for a crankshaft bearing of an internal combustion engine comprising a bearing shell (2), two screw columns (3,3null), which are located on both sides of the bearing shell (2) and provided for mounting on a bearing block, and comprising a reinforcement (4) of the bearing shell (2) extending between both screw columns (3,3null). The aim of the invention is to optimize a bearing cover (1) of the aforementioned type with regard to its shape whereby attaining a high level of stability with a low weight. To this end, the reinforcement (4) is comprised of two braces (6,6null), which extend diagonally from the area of the upper ends (5,5null) of the screw columns (3,3null) to the bearing shell (2) and which have an essentially constant cross-section over the length thereof, and comprised of a rib (7) extending on the upper side of the bearing shell (2) from one brace (6) to the other (6null).

Abstract:
A crankshaft supporter having a bearing holder molded in aluminum alloy and having a bearing for supporting a crankshaft. A preform member is cast inside of the aluminum alloy. A screw hole having one opened end is formed in an outer surface of the bearing holder. A concave recess section is formed in the preform member to accommodate a bottom of the screw hole. An introduction passage is provided in the recess section to introduce molten metal therein during casting to prevent blowholes.
Abstract:
Abstract of DisclosureA main bearing cap (20) for an internal combustion engine consists of an aluminum alloy with an iron alloy core (10). The cap has a supporting surface (22) for a bearing shell. The iron alloy core has a central portion (13) with two spaced apart through-channels (15) filled with an aluminum alloy (24) forming a coherent mass with an aluminum layer (23) the outer limiting surface of which forms the supporting surface (22).
Abstract:
Abstract of DisclosureA method of high pressure die casting in iron alloy reinforcements for main bearing scantlings in an aluminum alloy engine block for an internal combustion engine. Prior to casting, reinforcements (1) having bores (6) for main bearing screws are placed in a die cavity (21), so that cores for main bearing screws protrude into the bores in each reinforcement on one side of the reinforcement. Then the reinforcements are fixed in the die cavity by placing a cylinder liner core (25) against a surface (27) of the reinforcement on the opposite side of the reinforcement.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a modular internal combustion engine assembly that includes a closed-dome cylinder liner having solenoid actuated intake and exhaust valves supported within the dome portion of the cylinder liner. The engine assembly also includes a crankshaft having a series of discs joined together in a spaced parallel relationship by a plurality of crankpins, that is supported at the lower end of the cylinder block by bushings adapted to receive the crankshaft, such that the crankshaft rotates within the bushings in response to piston power strokes.
