A piston rod includes a piston end that is removably attached to the piston rod body. A sleeve extends around the piston rod body and interfaces with a seal disposed within a pump. A ring extends from the piston end defines at least a portion of a socket formed in the piston end for connecting the piston end and the piston rod body. The ring has a cylindrical ring exterior and the sleeve rests on the cylindrical ring exterior such that the shank, the ring, and the sleeve radially overlap each other.

The present invention provides a piston of an internal combustion engine capable of reducing a deformation amount of a piston head. A piston of an internal combustion engine includes a piston head, a pair of piston pin boss portions, a pair of skirt portions, and four apron portions connecting each of the pair of piston pin boss portions and each of the pair of skirt portions. Each of the four apron portions includes a bent portion, a boss portion-side portion positioned on one side where the pair of piston pin boss portions is located with respect to the bent portion, and a skirt portion-side portion positioned on an opposite side from the pair of piston pin boss portions with respect to the bent portion. A distance between an axis perpendicular to both an axis of a cylinder of the internal combustion engine and an axis of a piston hole and the boss portion-side portion is increasing according to an increase in a distance from the axis of the piston pin hole.

Disclosed are a piston and a method for a ring groove support structure thereof. The piston includes a piston head and a piston skirt connected with the piston head; a cooling oil cavity is arranged in the piston head; a position of the bottom of the cooling oil cavity close to the piston skirt is an open end and the open end is sealed through a supporting member; a cooling oil inlet and an oil drain port are arranged on the supporting member; the cooling oil inlet is in communication with the cooling oil cavity and an oil inlet channel of the cooling oil arranged in the piston skirt; the oil drain port is in communication with the cooling oil cavity and the oil drain channel arranged in the piston skirt; and the open end and the supporting member are welded.

A setting tool that sets a packer or bridge plug in a wellbore using an improved piston rod design.

The present disclosure provides a sealing ring assembly with one or more piston-integrated gap cover features, configured to seal a high-pressure region from a relatively lower pressure region of a piston and cylinder device. The sealing ring assembly may include two rings which each may include one or more ring segments. The one or more gap-cover features, which may be in the form of protrusions in the piston ring groove, may engage with corresponding flat sections of the ring segments. As the sealing ring wears, the gap-cover features may stay engaged with the ring segments, thereby maintaining a seal.

Provided are a disc brake and a piston whose weights can be effectively reduced. A disc brake includes a piston configured to press a pad against a disc. The piston includes a body member formed into a bottomed cylindrical shape and including a cylinder portion and a bottom portion. The cylinder portion and the bottom portion are approximately equal in wall thickness. The piston further includes a plate-shaped member fixed to an external bottom surface of the body member and disposed within a range of the external bottom surface and in a region including a center of the external bottom surface.

The invention relates to a piston of an internal combustion engine, having an upper part with appended piston bosses and load-bearing skirt wall sections, wherein the load-bearing skirt wall sections are arranged in a self-supporting manner on the upper part without any attachment to the piston bosses, and wherein a rib extends from the underside of the upper part in the direction of the inner side of the load-bearing skirt wall sections.

A thin-walled piston having a multi-part construction for a brake caliper, the piston having a one-piece design with the form of a pot, which is open on one side, a longitudinal axis, a wall and a piston floor, and which can be applied in the region of the piston floor with an axial contact surface to a brake lining, wherein a tubular insert with a cone is fixed in the interior of the piston, the insert forming a bearing for a bushing.

An internal combustion may include a cylinder having a first combustion chamber at one end and a second combustion chamber at an opposing end, first and second cylinder heads located at an end of the first and second combustion chambers, respectively, and a double-faced piston slidably mounted within the cylinder. The piston may be configured to move in the cylinder in a work stroke from one end to another. The work stroke may include an expansion stroke portion, a momentum stroke portion, and a compression stroke portion. The engine may further include first and second piston rod portions extending from opposite faces of the piston. Passageways in the piston rod portions may be configured to communicate gases between a combustion chamber and a location outside the cylinder.

The piston may be configured to move in the cylinder in a work stroke from one end to another. The work stroke may include an expansion stroke portion and a non-expansion stroke portion. The non-expansion stroke portion may include a momentum stroke portion, and a compression stroke portion. The engine may further include first and second piston rod portions extending from opposite faces of the piston. Passageways in the piston rod portions may be configured to communicate gases between a combustion chamber and other locations.
