Abstract
A method for treating with treating liquid the inside surfaces of cylinders of a work such as a V-shaped engine having cylinders with at least two different axial alignments, characterized in the steps of rotating the work in such a way that each cylinder in another axial alignment is aligned with a longitudinal passage-forming member provided in a workstation; and repeating the same operations on said cylinder at said workstation, thereby allowing for easy operations without interruption.
Claims11
A method for treating with treating liquid the inside surfaces of cylinders of a work having at least one first cylinder and at least one second cylinder, said first and said second cylinders having at least two different axial alignments, comprising the steps of:
- (a) aligning said at least one first cylinder with a longitudinal passage-forming member for supplying treating liquid to the inside of said at least one first cylinder, provided in a workstation;
- (b) placing said at least one first cylinder on a work-supporting base provided in said workstation to sheathe the length of said longitudinal passage-forming member with said at least one first cylinder;
- (c) supplying treating liquid to the inside of said at least one first cylinder via the passage formed inside said cylinder by said longitudinal passage-forming member, thereby treating said inside surface of said at least one first cylinder with said treating liquid;
- (e) rotating said work in such a way that said at least one second cylinder is aligned with a longitudinal passage-forming member provided in a workstation;
- and
- (f) repeating the same operations on said at least one second cylinder at said workstation.
