Abstract (en)

[origin: US2009151556A1] A two-part piston for an internal combustion engine has an upper part that has a pin having an outside thread on the underside of its piston crown, and has a lower part that has a crown part, onto which an expansion sleeve that can stretch elastically in the axial direction is formed, radially on the inside. A pin is introduced into the sleeve in order to screw the upper part to the lower part. The expansion sleeve is stretched in the axial direction. In order to improve its strength, the material of the expansion sleeve has a higher stretching limit as compared with the rest of the piston material. The increase in the stretching limit is achieved by permanent stretching of the expansion sleeve in the axial direction, by approximately 1% of its length.
