Abstract:
A device lubricates a connecting rod bearing on a crankshaft of an internal combustion engine. The device has a piston having an internal piston cooling fluid channel, and an outlet channel in fluid communication with the fluid channel. The device has a connecting rod, which is connected to the piston in an articulated, in particular pivotable, manner, and has a large connecting rod eye and a connecting channel. The large connecting rod eye is formed for receiving the connecting rod bearing. The connecting channel forms a fluid connection between the outlet channel and the large connecting rod eye so that a fluid, in particular a cooling lubricating fluid (e.g. oil), can be fed, or is fed, from the fluid channel to the large connecting rod eye via the outlet channel and the connecting channel. The connecting rod bearing can be lubricated by cooling oil from the fluid channel of the piston.
Abstract:
Embodiments are directed toward an engine. In some embodiments, the engine includes a water pump and a balancer shaft. In some embodiments, the water pump has a plain bearing. In some embodiments, plain bearing is supplied with pressurized oil. In some embodiments, the balancer shaft drives the water pump as well as cam shafts.
Abstract:
A captive screw spray nozzle comprising a screw for holding the spray nozzle on a support, the screw comprising a screw head engaging with a holding member, secured to the spray nozzle, and forming a stop for retaining the captive screw on the spray nozzle.
