    摘要: A piston assembly and method of construction thereof for an internal combustion engine are provided. The assembly includes a piston head having an upper combustion wall with an undercrown surface and a ring belt region. The piston head has a floor with an upper surface and a bottom surface. The floor is spaced beneath the upper combustion wall in radial alignment with the ring belt region. A substantially enclosed, annular cooling gallery is bounded by the undercrown surface and the floor. A pair of pin bores depends directly from the floor of the cooling gallery. The assembly further includes a pin having ends configured for oscillating receipt in the pin bores. A pin bearing surface extends within the pin bores and between the pin bores in the lower surface of the floor. The assembly includes a connecting rod with an end fixed to the pin for conjoint oscillation therewith.

    摘要: A galleryless piston for an internal combustion engine and method of construction thereof are provided. The piston has a monolithic piston body extending along a central longitudinal axis. The piston body has an upper wall forming an upper combustion surface with first and second portions, with the first portion extending annularly along an outer periphery of the upper wall and the second portion forming a combustion bowl. The upper wall has an undercrown surface on an underside of the combustion bowl directly opposite the second portion of the upper combustion surface. The undercrown surface has an openly exposed 2-dimensional surface area, as viewed looking along the central longitudinal axis, between about 35-60 percent of an area defined by a maximum outer diameter of the piston body, thereby providing an expansive area against which oil being splashed or sprayed can freely contact to cool the piston.

    摘要: A three section steel piston for two-stroke engines is provided. The piston is provided with an upper section, a middle section and a lower section. Piston ring grooves are formed into the upper and lower sections, and pin bosses with openings and skirts are formed into the middle section. The middle section has relatively thinner walls as compared to the portions of the upper and lower sections at the piston ring grooves to reduce the mass of the piston. A closed cooling gallery may be formed adjacent an upper combustion surface of the piston with the cooling gallery being defined at least partially by the upper section.

    摘要: A piston assembly, piston therefor and methods of construction are provided. The assembly includes a piston head and connecting rod operably coupled thereto via a wrist pin. The piston head has an upper crown with a combustion bowl and an undercrown surface. The lower crown includes axially aligned pin bores receiving the wrist pin. An upper wall of the lower crown has an oil inlet, an oil outlet and a concave, saddle bearing surface that bears against the wrist pin. A toroid-shaped outer cooling gallery is formed between wall portions of the upper and lower crowns, wherein the outer cooling gallery surrounds an inner cooling gallery. The connecting rod is fixed to the wrist pin for conjoint oscillation. The connecting rod has an oil passage in fluid communication with a through hole in the wrist pin to allow oil to flow therethrough into the inner cooling gallery via the oil inlet.

    摘要: A piston for an internal combustion engine and method of construction is provided. The piston has a robust, lightweight monolithic piston body including an upper wall forming a combustion bowl depending radially inwardly from an annular, uppermost combustion surface. An undercrown surface is formed on an underside of the combustion bowl, with at least a portion of the undercrown surface being bounded by diametrically opposite skirt portions, pin bosses and strut portions connecting the skirt portions to the pin bosses. The bounded undercrown surface has an openly exposed surface area, as viewed looking along a central longitudinal axis along which the piston reciprocates, providing an expansive area against which oil being splashed or sprayed can come into direct contact with to enhance cooling the piston while in use. Through channels extending over upper regions of the pin bosses can be provided to further reduce weight and facilitate cooling.
