Method for producing a piston

摘要

The invention relates to a method for producing a piston (1) for an internal combustion engine, characterized by the following method steps: producing an upper piston part (2) and a lower piston part (3) having one or more recesses (4, 4′) for forming a closed cavity (5); introducing a heat transfer medium (6), in particular one or more alkali metals, that is solid or paste-like at ambient temperature and liquid at the intended operating temperature of the piston, into the recesses (4, 4′) of the lower piston part (3) and/or of the upper piston part (2), wherein the heat transfer medium (6) is provided in order, during the operative state of the piston (1), to effect heat transport within the piston (1) by convection; closing the recesses to form the closed cavity (5) which encloses the heat transfer medium (6); and connecting the upper piston part (2) to the lower piston part (3). This enables the piston (1) to be produced in a simplified manner.

1. Method for the production of a piston (1) for an internal combustion engine, comprising the following method steps:
producing an upper piston part (2) and a lower piston part (3), wherein the upper piston part (2) and/or the lower piston part (3) has/have at least one depression (4, 4′), introducing a heat transfer medium (6) that is solid or a paste at room temperature and liquid at the operating temperature of the piston into at least one of the depressions (4, 4′), closing the at least one depression (4, 4′), with the formation of at least one closed cavity (5), which contains the heat transfer medium (6), and connecting the upper piston part (2) with the lower piston part (3), wherein said heat transfer medium is composed of at least two alloy elements that are introduced, in differing composition, into at least two spatially separated regions of the at least one depression (4, 4′) of the lower piston part (3) and/or of the upper piston part (2), and are enclosed together within the at least one closed cavity (5) during the step of closing.
