  • Patent number: 9670869
    Abstract: An assembly for a combustion engine may include a piston and a connecting rod. The piston may include a piston crown, a piston skirt, and respective portions for accommodating a piston pin through which the piston is intended to be supported on the connecting rod. The piston skirt may have a completely closed bottom part and apertures may be provided in the portion for accommodating the piston pin. The apertures may seal against the piston pin to enclose a bottom part of the piston crown as well as the piston crown portion for accommodating the piston pin. The connecting rod may have a fork shape in an end facing the piston.

  • Patent number: 8978612
    Abstract: In a piston (1) for combustion engines are included a piston crown (2), a piston skirt (3) and portions (4A, 4B; 13) for receiving a piston pin (5) by means of which the piston is pivotally supported on a connection rod, whereby a protection (7) covering a major portion of a bottom side of the piston crown is supported on the piston pin. The protection is fitted in sealing engagement with a first inner portion of the piston skirt, forming an uninterrupted gap in relation to a main portion of the piston crown and with at least a portion of the protection being provided at a distance inside a second outer portion of the piston skirt.

  • Publication number: 20140345561
    Abstract: In an assembly (1) for a combustion engine, consisting of a piston (2) and a connecting rod (17), the piston includes a piston crown (3), a piston skirt (4) and portions (10, 14) for accommodating a piston pin (6) through which the piston is intended to be supported on the connecting rod. The piston skirt has a completely closed bottom part (15) and in its portion for accommodating the piston pin has apertures (16) sealing against the piston pin but otherwise completely encloses a bottom part (12) of the piston crown as well as the piston crown portion (10) for accommodating the piston pin. The connecting rod further has a fork shape in its end (19) facing the piston. A piston and a connecting rod, respectively, for use in such an assembly are likewise provided.

  • Patent number: 5647304
    Abstract: The invention is directed to a method and a device for improving combustion in combustion processes and to achieve cleaner emissions. An oxidizer in gaseous form is introduced to metal-containing surfaces or surfaces onto which oxidizers can deposit in the combustion area or its proximity so that a direct convergence with the fuel feed and its admixture with air is obtained. The regulation of the flow supply is effected with an engine feedback control system. The following are also effected by the control system: the gaseous flow, the flow speed and concentration according to the engine load, motor speed, temperature, fuel consumption and gaseous emissions.

  • Patent number: 5495904
    Abstract: A power system for wheelchairs is described, in particular for wheelchairs of the foldable type with quick-release wheel axles 1, the power system having two compact drive units, which are affixable and removable without the use of tools. The drive units connect vertically to complementary mounting brackets fixed to the wheelchair frame. The drive system also includes a control unit 51 for controlling power supply to each drive unit from batteries 41 held in underslung battery tray 42. The power system is retrofittable to existing wheelchairs, and is designed for easy removal.
