Abstract (en)

[origin: WO8804724A1] The technical problem is to reduce the operating noise of such a piston. It is solved by means of a piston having the following dimensions: a) A = (0.45-0.65) D; b) H = (0.25-0.4) D; c) A = (0.3-0.4) D; d) A greater than or equal to B; e) T = (0.45-0.8) D; f) the piston ribs between the annular grooves (2, 3, 4) and the rod region with a very narrow operating clearance have, in the case of a hot operating piston, approximately the same clearance in relation to the cylinder operating path. An additional improvement consists in inserting an annular jacket in the piston head in the radial region behind the annular grooves, said jacket consisting of a material having a thermal expansion factor less than that of the basic piston material. In a hot operating internal combustion engine, the piston has, in the region of the ribs, a clearance which, in the direction pressure/counter-pressure reaches approximately only 3-5 times the clearance in the very narrow clearance region of the piston rod.
