Abstract
A galleryless steel piston for an internal combustion engine is provided. The piston comprises an exposed undercrown surface, a ring belt with ring grooves, pin bosses, skirt panels, and struts. The piston further includes an inner undercrown region and outer pockets extending along the undercrown surface. The inner undercrown region is surrounded by the skirt panels, the struts, and the pin bosses, and each outer pocket is surrounded by a portion of the ring belt, one of the pin bosses, and two of the struts. The piston includes a plurality of oil slots extending through the back wall of one of the ring grooves, typically the third ring groove, to the inner undercrown region and/or the outer pockets to allow drainage of cooling oil. Each oil slot typically has a diameter ranging from 30% to 100% of an axial width of the ring groove.
