US Patent:
7204224, Apr 17, 2007
Filed:
Mar 14, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/375428
Inventors:
Gary J. Hazelton - White Lake MI, US
Franz Decarli - Garden City MI, US
Scott M. Kociba - Clarkston MI, US
Christopher W. Zwolensky - Grand Blanc MI, US
Assignee:
GM Global Technology Operations, Inc. - Detroit MI
International Classification:
F02F 7/00
F01M 5/00
F01M 1/00
US Classification:
123195C, 123196 R, 123196 A, 123196 AB
Abstract:
An internal combustion engine includes a crankcase and an upper oil pan. The crankcase includes a plurality of main bearing caps extending between a pair of side walls, with openings in the main bearing caps and in the side walls. The upper oil pan is configured to sealingly engage the crankcase, and includes openings therethrough, which align with the openings in the main bearing caps and the side walls when the upper oil pan engages the crankcase. Fasteners structurally tie the upper oil pan to both the crankcase side walls and the main bearing caps. The engine may further include a lower oil pan defining a sump and attached to the upper oil pan. The upper oil pan preferably includes an oil filter manifold, an oil scraper, and a plurality of oil passages, while also providing a windage tray.

US Patent:
7836571, Nov 23, 2010
Filed:
Aug 22, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/843153
Inventors:
Brent Kemmer - Clarkston MI, US
Marc L Huffman - Clarkston MI, US
Scott M. Kociba - Clarkston MI, US
Christopher W. Zwolensky - Grand Blanc MI, US
Quintin A Wilson - Commerce MI, US
Assignee:
GM Global Technology Operations, Inc. - Detroit MI
International Classification:
B25B 27/14
US Classification:
292811, 292815, 292816
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for installing a piston and connecting rod assembly in a cylinder of an engine block includes a frame, an installation rod and a guide defining a channel complementary to the rod. The frame is disposed about an opening at the bottom of the engine block and the guide is positioned on the frame in alignment with a cylinder. The installation rod is coupled to the connecting rod and the rod and the piston and connecting rod assembly are slid into the cylinder. The installation rod is received within the guide channel and maintains the connecting rod perpendicular to the crankshaft and away from the cylinder wall. As the connecting rod moves toward the crankshaft, the guide and rod move the connecting rod into proper alignment and contact with the crankshaft.
