Cylinder block
14. Roger C. Montepio
Cylinder liners
Removable cylinders - Cylinder liners or sleeves can be
classified as:
Dry type – serves as the inner lining and cylinder
wearing surface
- usually much thinner and easier to replace
Wet type- serves as the entire cylinder wall and
comes into direct contact with the coolant
16. Roger C. Montepio
Cylinder head
Its function is to cover the upper end of the
cylinder
Is a part where the valves and rocker arms
may be housed
Contains the pocket or space above the
cylinder and piston called combustion chamber
17. Roger C. Montepio
Component parts?
1. Surface – plane surface that presses the gasket against the
surface of the block for purpose of sealing
2. Combustion space – part of cylinder head surface directly
over the piston surface

pump, oil filter, generator, starter motor and ignition
part
Oil pan – the lower part of the crankcase
- serve as reservoir for the lubricating oil
- components are base, baffle plate, drain plug
and depth stick guide
20. Roger C. Montepio
Piston
part of both the 2-
stroke and 4-stroke
engines that receives
the energy from the
combustion
transmit power to the
crankshaft
21. Roger C. Montepio
Piston
Piston moves (acceleration) from TDC to BDC
or vise versa at 50mph (80kph) at the
midpoint from stop, then decelerate to stop
again
Piston head subjected to pressure in excess
of 1000psi (6895 kPa)
Piston head is subjected to temperatures
well over 600˚F (316˚C)
22. Roger C. Montepio
Piston
Construction materials-weight is the
primary consideration in designing
a. gray cast iron – used in heavy duty engines and low
speed, more wear resistant
b. Cast steel – used in heavy duty engines and low
speed
c. Aluminum alloy- suitable for high operating speed,
best material for piston construction
- disadvantage: high coefficient of expansion,
23. Roger C. Montepio
Piston
Piston- has built-in
features to help them control
expansion
a. Piston crown – is machined
to a diameter approx. 0.03-
0.04 in (0.762-1.106mm)
smaller than skirt area
b. skirt area – has slot cut up
on the side
24. Roger C. Montepio
Piston
c. Skirt area has T-slot, an
additional horizontal slot to
retard heat transfer
d. Piston aluminum has steel
braces cast into the piston
25. Roger C. Montepio
Types of Piston
1. Trunk or standard – (strut, skirt, plain)
2. Crosshead -
26. Roger C. Montepio
Types of standard
Strut-type aluminum alloy – has struts
embed made of steel or invar to control
piston expansion and strengthen the piston
Split skirt aluminum alloy
- the purpose of piston skirt is to keep the
piston from rocking in the cylinder
Plain cast iron
27. Roger C. Montepio
Purpose of partial skirt
Lightens the piston
Reduces the contact area with the cylinder wall
Allows the piston to be brought down closer to
crankshaft
28. Roger C. Montepio
Piston structure
Ways of making piston strong
and lighter:
a. Piston heads are made
as thin, to keep strong,
additional ribs are cast
into underside
b. Piston pin is reinforced
called pin bossing
29. Roger C. Montepio
Treatment applied to the piston to
add strength and more wear
resistant
Piston is coated with tin w/c will work into the
cylinder wall
Piston is anodized to produce harder outside
surface… making the metal surface to aluminum
oxide
30. Roger C. Montepio
Terminologies
Anodizing – is the process that produces a
coating on the surface by electrolysis
Piston clearance – is the space between the
piston wall and cylinder wall (0.0005 inch when cold)
-aluminum alloy requires about twice as much clearance as cast
iron
-Too much clearance will cause loss of compression, oil pumping,
and piston slap
-Too little clearance will cause piston to stick when hot
31. Roger C. Montepio
Piston Rings
What is its functions?
To retain compression, or provide seal
Reduce the cylinder wall and piston wall contact area
Control of the oil and cylinder lubrication, or prevent
lubricating oil from bypassing the piston
Control of transmission of heat away from the piston
and the cylinder wall or provide solid bridge to conduct
heat from the piston to the cylinder wall
One-third of the heat absorbed by the piston passes to
the cylinder wall through piston rings
Ring-like part inserted around the groove of piston
33. Roger C. Montepio
Classed of piston rings
Compression ring – usually plain
one-piece ring
- always placed in the grooves
nearest the piston head
Oil ring – grooved or slotted
- Located either in the lowest
groove above piston pin or in a
groove near the piston skirt
38. Roger C. Montepio
Configuration of Piston rings
Number of rings varies from 3 to 5
Ordinary engines have 3 rings per piston
Diesel engines have 5 rings per piston
39. Roger C. Montepio
Purpose of 2nd compression ring?
To hold back any blow by
that may have occurred at the
top ring
Assembled in 60 degrees
offset
41. Roger C. Montepio
Inner rings or expander – special, flexible,
spring-steel bands placed in the ring grooves
under regular rings – purpose of creating better
contact between ring and wall
Piston ring clearance – space at the joint of
the ring

Piston pin
Made of casehardened alloy steel
Function is to join the connecting rod to the
piston
Kept the piston from axial movement by
internal spring lock ring or circlips
Lubricated by splash from crankcase or by
pressure
44. Roger C. Montepio
Methods of anchoring
Piston pin
The pin is clamp to the connecting rod by means
of a clamp screw or setscrew
The pin is anchored to the piston by means of
setscrew and the bearing is in the connecting rod
The pin is allowed to float and is held in place by
means of snap rings at each end of the pin
45. Roger C. Montepio
Connecting rod
Made of drop-forged steel
Rod like part of the engine that connects the
piston with the crankshaft
Type are:
conventional type – one having a halve cap for
crankshaft crankpin
crosshead type – design to minimize eccentricity of
the crankshaft, usually used in diesel engine
46. Roger C. Montepio
Parts of connecting rod (I-
beam type)
1.Wrist pin boss
2.Bushing
3.Body
4.Oil hole
5.Cap bolt
6.Cap
48. Roger C. Montepio
Crankshaft
Made of drop-forged steel
The main turning part of the engine having the
eccentric arm
The connecting rod is attached
Takes or receive the downward thrust of the piston
and connecting rod when air-fuel is burned
50. Roger C. Montepio
Flywheel – absorb the violent thrust of power stroke
and then release the energy back to the crankshaft
- provide additional power to the engine to run
smoothly and helps overcome increased load
- Contributes uniform rotation of crankshaft
Lubrication system – provides a constant supply
of oil to the engine
- to lubricate and cool the moving parts
Engine Accessory System
51. Roger C. Montepio
Engine Accessory System
Fuel system – supplies the engine
with the properly proportioned
fuel and air mixture
-regulates the amount of the
mixture supplied to the engine to
control engine speed and power
output
52. Roger C. Montepio
Ignition system – ignites the fuel and air
mixture in the combustion chamber at the
precise moment needed
Cooling system – removes the excess heat
from the engine, generated by combustion
