Piston for internal combustion engines, produced by means of a multi-orbital friction welding method
A method for producing a piston of an internal combustion engine, designed as a one-piece cooling channel piston. The piston includes an upper part and a lower part supported by corresponding circumferential joining bosses together forming a joining zone. In order to produce a bonded joint of the upper part and the lower part, the joining bosses are connected by means of multiorbital friction welding in the region of a rotationally symmetrical or rotationally asymmetrical joining zone.
1. A method for producing a piston of an internal combustion engine, designed as a one-piece cooling channel piston comprising an upper part and a lower part that are supported by matching joining bosses together forming a joining zone and bonded by means of a friction weld, characterized in that multi-orbital friction welding is carried out to join the joining bosses of the piston that run rotationally asymmetrically.
2. A method for producing a piston of an internal combustion engine, designed as a one-piece cooling channel piston comprising an upper part and a lower part that are supported by matching joining bosses together forming a joining zone and bonded by means of a friction weld, characterized in that the piston comprises at least two joining zones spaced apart radially from each other and running one of rotationally asymmetrically whose joining bosses are joined by means of multi-orbital friction welding.
3. The method of claim 2 wherein a welding bead resulting after the friction weld is completed is left at the joining zones.
4. The method of claim 2 wherein a cooling channel of the piston is closed during the multi-orbital frictional welding process.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the joining bosses have different wall thicknesses.
6. The method of claim 5 wherein the joining zone disposed circumferentially in the piston has a vertical offset “v”.
7. The method claim 5 wherein a vertical offset is provided between two joining zones of the piston located radially offset to each other.
