The purpose of this study si the development of a lathe which can cut any pistons of oval shape with high seed, accuracy and precision by CNC (Computer Numerical Control) method. Yaxis which is the position determinating mechanism with high speed response was added to the CNC lathe and the ovality and profile was cut under the control of C-Y-Z axes at same tile. In the case of ovality of $\Phi$ improved up to 2500rpm(Y axis : 83Hz) by high speed cutting than modeling method. Since a personal computer is used, it is easy to change the shape of piston and can be applied promptly to many types of piston shape by only changing data files.

Friction between piston-ring assembly and cylinder wall of a spark ignition engine was evaluated under various engine operating conditions utilizing a grasshopper linkage system. The friction force was estimated by the force balance relation at the small end of connecting rod. Three forces were chosen to be measured for the objective. They were gas pressure inside the cylinder, inertia force of the piston-ring assembly, and the force exerted by the connecting rod. These forces were measured by a piezo type pressure sensor, an accelerometer and strain gauges, respectively. Comparisons were made with the frictional force evaluated by the conventional method where the assumption of constant rotational speed of engines was adopted. Due to the variation of rotational speed of engines, the conventional method was found to lead to a large error in the evaluation of the frictional force.

The rolling piston type rotary compressor has been widely used for refrigeration and air-conditioning systems due to its compactness and high-speed operation. The present analysis is part of a research program directed toward maximizing the advantages of refrigerant compressors. The study of lubrication characteristics in the critical sliding component is essential for the design of refrigerant compressors. Therefore, theoretical investigation of the lubrication characteristics of a rotary compressor being used for refrigeration and air-conditioning systems was investigated. The Newton-Raphson method was used for a partial elastohydrodynamic lubrication analysis between the vane and the rolling piston of a rotary compressor. The results demonstrated that the vane thickness and the center line position of the vane significantly influenced the friction force and the energy loss between the vane and the rolling piston.

To increase the efficiency of the hydraulic axial piston pumps, it is need to know the various characteristics in the sliding contact parts of them. Especially, friction characteristics between the cylinder block and the valve plate in the hydraulic axial piston pumps plays an important role to high power density. In this paper, we tried to clarify friction characteristics between the cylinder block and the spherical valve plate in bent-axis-type axial piston pump in experimentally. Results are arranged as follow; (1) friction torque between the cylinder block and the spherical valve plate has a proportional relation to weight or rotational speed, and is strongly affected by temperature. (2) Friction torque strongly depends on force balance ratio in valve plate. (3) In this experiment, lubrication condition between the cylinder block and the spherical valve plate is under hydrodynamic lubrication.

The friction loss between piston rings and cylinder liner is due to the tension of the piston rings. Lubricant is usually supplied to reduce the friction. However, the sliding speed of the piston varies during the reciprocating cycle and is very low near TDC(Top Dead Center)/BDC(Bottom Dead Center), where the hydrodynamic lubrication cannot be sustained. Since the lubrication regime is shifted from the hydrodynamic to the boundary lubrication near TDC/BDC, wear particles are easily generated so that the friction loss becomes bigger and bigger due to the plowing effect of wear particles. In this study, for the purpose of reducing the friction loss, an undulated surface is adopted to the cylinder liner to trap wear particles. The friction force variations, which are measured by strain gaged, show that the concept of undulated surface is one of the promising methods to effectively reduce the friction between piston rings and cylinder liner.

Pressure fluctuation in the cylinder is one of the major sources on noise emission in oil hydraulic piston pumps. This paper reports an experimental study of pressure fluctuation characteristics in the cylinder of oil hydraulic piston pumps. We measured pressure fluctuation at BDC with delivery pressure, rotational speed. Because the pre-compression and the V-grooves in the valve plate is known of noise reduction, we investigated also the effect of pre-compression and V-grooves at the ends of the kidney ports with four types valve plates. We found that the pre-compression and the V-grooves in valve plate could reduce the noise of oil hydraulic piston pumps.

This paper investigated design requirements for piston pumps, which were used as the power source of light rescue vehicle, and designed a piston pump satisfying such requirements. In order to satisfy the driving specification of the rescue device, the pump needs to be designed using the displacement volume of 110 cc/rev, the pressure of 350 bar and the rotation speed of 2,200 rev/min. The design was verified by flow and structural analyses respectively. The shape of the piston pump was optimized in terms of both flow characteristics and structural stability. A test equipment was also fabricated to verify the developed piston pump and test conditions were established. Finally, the developed piston pump was tested for its performance and operating temperature.
