    Abstract: A powder metal main bearing cap has integral dowels at its adjoining face around bolt holes and tooth projections surrounding the dowels. The dowels are force fit into counterbores in the engine block and the teeth bite into the metal of the block around the bolt holes to inhibit fretting wear. Elongated bolt holes can be formed in the main bearing cap to accommodate a splayed joint, with the bolt head supporting face of the cap at an oblique angle to the hole. The bearing cap can be first pressed into the engine block so as to assure indentation by the teeth and insertion of the dowels, followed by bolting.

    Abstract: A crankcase for an internal-combustion engine is constructed with a crankcase top and bottom sections made of a light-metal material. Bearing points for a crankshaft and at least one cylinder space are provided. In the region of the bearing points for the crankshaft, respective parts are cast into the crankcase bottom and top sections. The cast-in parts are constructed of a material with a higher modulus of elasticity and a lower coefficient of thermal expansion than the light metal material for the crankcase bottom and top sections. The cast-in parts are constructed for each bearing point as separate, spatially mutually separated members.

    Abstract: A bearing arrangement which assures positive geometrical centering between two separately produced bearing components, preferably in internal combustion engines, includes a first bearing component provided with projections extending beyond a parting surface between the components and a second bearing component of lower hardness than the projections so that the projections displace the material of the second bearing component during assembly of the bearing arrangement.

    Abstract: A reinforcing insert for an engine block formed of a lightweight material is provided which is positioned in the bearing saddle area of the block for increasing the strength and stiffness of the bearing saddle area to ensure a secure connection of the main bearing cap throughout engine operation thereby ensuring proper crankshaft support and operation. The reinforcing insert is formed of a material having a higher modulus of elasticity than a modulus of elasticity of the lightweight engine block material. The insert includes a lower transverse surface for positioning at a lowermost position in the engine block, an upper surface positioned farthest from the crankshaft, a first and second linear side surfaces for positioning on opposite sides of the crankshaft. The linear sides extend from the lower surface along respective planes in nonparallel relation to each other. The linear sides may extend either in a converging or a diverging manner from the lower surface. Alternatively, the insert may include two cylindrical inserts positioned in bores formed in the block on opposite sides of the crankshaft. These insert designs provide strengthening and stiffening of the block over an optimum area while permitting secure attachment of a main bearing cap to the lightweight block.

    Abstract: The crankshaft bearing for an internal combustion engine consists of two bearing sections bolted together, in which an insert made of a ferrometallic material is embedded in a casting made of a light metal alloy. The inserts consist of shaped molded parts with openings and thickenings as well as a semicircular carrier that receives the respective part of the bearing bore. The inserts are traversed by the bearing bolts, which on one side abut the outer bolt surfaces on the casting of one bearing section and are bolted into the casting of the other bearing section.

    Abstract: A bearing insert for being cast into an aluminum alloy engine block is made by a ferrous powder metal sintering process to make a skeleton structure which is permeable to the molten aluminum alloy in the block casting process. The insert is made of a material having a similar composition as the bearing cap so as to equalize machining and thermal expansion properties of the cap and block so as to provide improved roundness of the bearing in the machining operations for forming the bearing support and in operation of the engine.
