Abstract
A cylinder for reciprocable internal combustion engines with a top section fixedly connected to the cylinder into which a cylinder bushing is inserted in dry condition. One end of the cylinder bushing extends with slight radial play into an annular flat groove provided in the top section of the cylinder and having its inner circumferential surface form an angle in excess of 70.degree. with that portion of the top section which faces toward the interior of the cylinder.
Claims1
A thin wall cylinder for reciprocable piston internal combustion engines, which includes in combination:
- a top section fixedly connected to said cylinder and provided with a relatively flat annular groove open in the direction toward said cylinder, a cylinder bushing installed dry into said cylinder without seal and extending in substantially continuous contact with the wall of said cylinder and directly into said annular groove, the inner circumferential surface of said groove defining with that surface of said top section which faces toward the interior of said cylinder an angle in excess of 70.degree. with said inner surface spaced from said bushing an amount less than the expansion of said top section in said bushing to close said gap, said top section being connected to said cylinder along a plane through the bottom of said groove along an electron beam weld seam which also includes the end of said bushing in said groove.
