Abstract: An assembly for cooling oil for an internal combustion engine may include a piston having a piston head and a piston skirt. The piston head may include a piston crown with an undersurface having an outer region configured as a guiding surface for the cooling oil, a circumferential ring part, and, in a region of the circumferential ring part, a circumferential cooling channel with at least one feed opening for the cooling oil. The assembly may also include a first oil spray nozzle for creating a first cooling oil jet directed at the feed opening, and a second oil spray nozzle for creating a second cooling oil jet directed at the guiding surface such that the second cooling oil jet may deflect and flow along the guiding surface in a direction of the undersurface. At least the first oil spray nozzle may be positioned below the piston skirt.

Abstract: A cooling channel cover for a piston of an internal combustion engine may include a body having mutually opposite end faces. At least one supply element for a coolant may be received in an opening disposed in the cooling channel cover. The supply element may include an inlet region and an outlet region, and may be held on the cooling channel cover via a clipped-in latching connection. A spring tab may be disposed on the inlet region of the supply element, and/or a latching element may be disposed on the outlet region of the supply element. The spring clip may engage one of the end faces and the latching element may engage the opposite end face.

Abstract: An annular cooling channel cover for a piston may include an elastic material body having opposing end faces. At least two opposing end regions may provide a joint gap and at least one feed element for a coolant may be received in at least one opening disposed in the cooling channel cover. The feed element may include an inlet region and an outlet region, and may be held on the cooling channel cover via a clip-on latching connection. Spring clips may be disposed on the inlet region of the feed element, and/or latching elements may be disposed on the outlet region of the feed element. The spring clips may engage one of the end faces and the latching elements may engage the opposing end face. A closure element may engage into the joint gap to close the same.
