Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device (50) for inspecting a running surface (35) of a cylinder liner (25) of a combustion engine (10) comprising an inspection tool (65), a control device (55) and connection means (60) for power supply and transmission of measuring data and control signals. The inspection tool (65) comprises a bearing rail (70) and mounted thereon a rotary table (80) and tools (90, 96) for measuring the inner diameter (d) and running surface (35) of the cylinder liner (25) and for visual inspection of the surface condition. The inspection tool (65) has a size that allows its introduction into the cylinder liner (25) through an aperture (30) in the cylinder liner (25) to be inspected. The invention is particular suitable for the inspection of a cylinder liner (25) of a reciprocating piston combustion engine (10).
Abstract: The invention relates to a measurement device (10), to a measurement method, to a monitoring apparatus (1) and a monitoring method for monitoring a state of wear of a component of a reciprocating piston internal combustion engine (2) including a cylinder (3) having a cylinder cover (4) and a running surface (51) provided at a cylinder wall (5) of the cylinder (3), in which cylinder (3) a piston (6) is arranged moveable to and fro in an axial direction (A) along the running surface (51) between a bottom dead center and a top dead center such that the piston (6), the cylinder cover (4) and the cylinder wall (5) form a combustion space (7) in the cylinder (3) for the combustion of a mixture of a fuel and air, wherein an oil collection device (8) is provided for the collection of lubrication oil (9) from the cylinder (3) so that a predetermined measured quantity (91) of lubrication oil (9) is suppliable from the cylinder (3) to a measurement device (10).
