Abstract: A piston for an internal combustion engine, for example a diesel engine, including a body delimited laterally by a skirt and configured to collaborate with walls of a cylinder of axis of revolution C in which the piston can slide along the axis C, the piston including a transverse face including a central pip, a peripheral ring, and a bowl of axis of revolution B that extends from the central pip towards the peripheral ring to which it connects at a lip of thickness Ep, the bowl including, in substantial vertical alignment with the lip, a torus in profile, for example of dome-shaped, of maximum radius capable of guiding fuel injected under the lip in the region of a re-entrant zone towards the central pip. The tip of the central pip exhibits a flattened region centred on the axis of revolution B of the bowl, of a width Lt ranging between 0 mm and 5 mm, or substantially equal to 2.5 mm.
