The piston skirt is connected to the pin bosses attached to the piston head. Inexpensive manufacture together with improved cooling and good form stability of the piston is achieved by providing the cooling channel with holes spread over its circumference towards the piston crown and spaced such that the piston material present between such holes forms supporting ribs for the piston crown.

Abstract: A one-piece piston comprises a piston crown made of steel and a bottom component made of forged steel, and a cooling channel that is formed by welding the crown and the bottom component of the piston together. The cooling channel is located radially behind the annular grooves. The crown and the bottom component of the piston jointly form a central cooling chamber whose lower limiting wall is forged as one piece with the bottom component of the piston. The welding seams joining the crown and the bottom component of the piston are friction welding seams. The piston provides for superior cooling of the crown of the piston and simplifies the production of the welding seams.

Abstract: The invention relates to a piston with a central cooling chamber. The cooling chamber is located beneath the piston head and is impinged upon by oil. At least the lower wall of the cooling chamber is formed by a plate. The purpose of the invention is to provide a means of fixing the plate to the piston as easily as possible. To this end, the piston has at least one second pin or clamping sleeve situated above the piston pin. The second piston pin or clamping sleeve has a smaller diameter, extends approximately in the direction of the piston pin axis, and is connected to the piston. The plate which forms the lower wall of the cooling chamber is supported against the second piston pin or clamping sleeve.

Abstract: A mushroom-type pin retainer for a pin having a central bore and which connects a piston and a piston rod of an internal combustion engine. The pin retainer is comprised of a mushroom head connected to a shaft. The shaft has a section of larger diameter for insertion into the bore of the pin. This section is no longer than 2 mm in an axial direction and is located remote from the mushroom head, so that the pin retainer may swing by a limited angle during mounting in the bore. This configuration makes the assembly simple to mount, even if it is manufactured by an imprecise manufacturing process such as injection molding.

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 cooled multi-component piston is provided in which the hollow annular space in the piston head for the cooling oil is closed off underneath. This is achieved with a sheet-metal ring with a collet which fits in a recess in the piston-ring wall, the sheet metal ring being biased via a retaining clip against the shaft bush.

Abstract: The invention relates to a piston for an internal combustion engine. The piston has a longitudinally extending axis and ring grooves for receiving piston rings, and a separate piston head having a top and an annular cooling oil duct. A ring belt extends downwardly from the top of the piston head to define an outer border of the annular cooling oil duct and forms a first support facing in an axial direction. Bosses define an inner border of the annular cooling oil duct and form a second support facing in an opposite axial direction. The cooling oil duct has an opening and an annular plate supported on the first and second supports by spring tension. The annular plate closes the opening of the annular cooling oil duct to retain oil therein to cool the piston.
