Disclosed is a crosshead component of a large diesel engine. The crosshead component consists of a crosshead pin (1), slide blocks (2), wear-resisting plates (3), sealing covers (4), and a sleeve (5), and has a structure with H-shaped cross and longitudinal sections. The crosshead pin (1) is a cylinder provided with petal-shaped through holes. The slide blocks (2) are respectively fitted on and connected to outer circles of left and right ends of the crosshead pin (1). The sleeve (5) is inserted in and connected to the petal-shaped through holes (112) of the crosshead pin (1) to form oil inlet/return way cavities. Left and right end surfaces of the crosshead pin (1) are respectively connected to the sealing covers (4) for sealing the oil way cavities. Front and back ends of the slide blocks (2) are respectively connected to the wear-resisting plates (3). The crosshead component has excellent interchangeability, economy and convenience.

A linear drive assembly configured for use within a power end assembly. The linear drive assembly is configured to interconnect a crankshaft and a pony rod and comprises a crosshead assembly attached to a connecting rod assembly. In one or more embodiments disclosed herein, the connecting rod assembly is configured to attach to opposite sides of the crosshead assembly so that no portion of the connecting rod assembly is disposed within an interior of a crosshead included in the crosshead assembly.

A pair of wear grooves for a linear drive assembly. One wear groove is disposed on a wear plate attached to a crosshead. This wear groove is on a front edge of the wear plate, and does not intersect any lubrication groove. Another wear groove is disposed circumferentially about an inner wall of a crosshead guide. Each of the wear grooves is observable to an operator without fully disassembling the crosshead and the crosshead guide, and each is observable from a single side of the crosshead guide. Should the wear groove not be observable, the associated component should be replaced. Should the wear groove be observable, the remaining life of the component can be determined from the groove's depth.

A system, in certain embodiments, includes a composite piston. The composite piston comprises a piston body made of a composite material, wherein the composite material comprises a reinforcing material distributed in a matrix material.

A system, in certain embodiments, includes a piston clamping system including a piston rod comprising a piston rod shoulder and a piston rod nut coupled to the piston rod, wherein the piston rod nut and the piston rod shoulder are configured to axially capture first and second body portions of a piston therebetween.

An internal combustion engine has a uniblock that defines a blind cylinder bore that terminates within the uniblock. A piston is inserted into the cylinder bore from a bottom end of the cylinder bore. Parallel first and second vertical planes extend along first and second lateral sides of the cylinder bore. A cylinder zone being defined between the first and second vertical planes. A crosshead is coupled to the piston. A first crankshaft has a first crankshaft axis that extends parallel to the first vertical plane and that is positioned outside of the cylinder zone. A second crankshaft has a second crankshaft axis that extends parallel to the second vertical plane and that is positioned outside of the cylinder zone. The first crankshaft is coupled to the crosshead with a first connecting rod and the second crankshaft is coupled to the crosshead with a second connecting rod.
