    摘要: A piston includes an upper member having a crown and a combustion surface extending radially inward from the crown. The upper member includes concentrically oriented first and second upper connecting surfaces integrally formed on the bottom side of the upper member. At least one of the upper connecting surfaces includes a curvilinear and/or multi-arcuate cross-sectional profile. The piston also includes a lower member having a pair of opposing skirts, each skirt defining a bore. The lower member also includes concentrically oriented first and second lower connecting surfaces integrally formed on a top side of the lower member. The lower member is integrally connected to the upper member by friction welding. The curvilinear and/or multi-arcuate profile enables a shortened distance between the top surface of the crown and the bore centerline of the bore. Methods of manufacturing the piston are also disclosed.

    摘要: A pre-finished piston part is disclosed that may be used to form a piston assembly. A pre-finished piston may include a lower part defining a piston axis, the lower part having a skirt and forming a lower surface of a cooling gallery. The lower part may include a radially inner bowl surface defining a lower part radially inner mating surface. The pre-finished piston assembly may further include an upper part having a radially outer bowl surface meeting the radially inner bowl surface at a radially inner joint. The upper part may include a radially inner wall defining a radially inner upper part mating surface. The radially inner wall may define a radially inwardly facing surface that defines a non-parallel angle with the radially inner bowl surface where the radially inner bowl surface meets the radially innermost edge of the radially inner mating surface.

    摘要: A piston with a cooling gallery containing an open cell radiator is provided. The radiator has a large thermally conductive surface area that acts as a heat-sink to remove heat from the piston. Heat from the piston is transmitted from the radiator to cooling oil that enters the cooling gallery via an oil inlet formed in a floor of the cooling gallery and exits the cooling gallery via an oil outlet. The piston comprises a piston body including an upper part presenting an upper combustion surface and an undercrown surface. A ring belt depends from the upper combustion surface, and the cooling gallery extends around the piston body beneath the undercrown surface radially inwardly of the ring belt. The radiator includes a plurality of fins extending annularly around the cooling gallery. The fins of the radiator are spaced from one another by gaps extending annularly around the cooling gallery.

    摘要: Exemplary pistons and methods of making the same are disclosed. An exemplary piston may include a crown defining a combustion bowl and a ring land extending circumferentially around the combustion bowl. Exemplary pistons may further include a skirt supporting the crown. The skirt may include a pair of pin bosses defining a pin bore configured to receive a piston pin, and two opposing skirt supports defining surfaces configured to slide along a cylinder bore surface. The skirt supports each define a different radial stiffness.
