Description
Cylinder Liner (Wet Liners)
The cylinder liner of an internal combustion engine includes a wet-type upper portion and a dry-type lower portion. The upper (wet) portion of the cylinder liner is formed to include alternate thinner and thicker portions, the thicker portions strengthening the liner in the wet area and enabling the overall thickness of this portion of the liner to be smaller than would otherwise be possible.
Further, the shapes involved by this construction provide a plurality of parallel annular flow passages by which the cooling fluid is directed in parallel paths around the upper portion of each of the cylinders from one side of each cylinder to the other side thereof.
Cylinder Sleeve (Dry Liners)
A Cylinder Sleeve or dry cylinder liners has a flange at the outer circumference of the upper part of a liners barrel, and also has a grind relief groove formed below the flange at the outer circumferential surface of the liner barrel.
The upper surface and the lower surface of the flange are coated with a coating film comprising a heat resistant resin containing a solid lubricant. The coating film may also be applied to only the lower surface of the liner flange.
