Abstract

See full text

A piston of an internal combustion engine includes a top part produced from steel and a bottom part, which are integrally bonded in the region of a contact geometry via joining webs by a friction weld to form a structural unit. At least one cooling duct permeated by a coolant is integrated in the piston, wherein a lubricating oil of the internal combustion engine passes as the coolant into an inlet opening via a free jet of an injection nozzle, flows through the cooling duct and leaves the cooling duct via an outlet opening. For the introduction of the coolant into the cooling duct, the inlet opening is assigned a flow pipe which is inserted in the bottom part and protrudes from a cooling duct base, the opening of the flow pipe being arranged above the weld beads of the friction weld.
