A method of producing a cooling channel piston for an internal combustion engine having a cooling channel in its piston crown, wherein a piston lower section with piston bosses, piston pin bores and piston skirts attach to the piston crown, wherein a piston blank is first produced with a circumferential collar radially projecting in the area of the piston crown, wherein the collar is then formed over, wherein, a seating area for the collar is formed in a transition zone between the piston crown and the piston lower section and the collar is formed over in such a way until its outer radially circumferential edge comes very close to or butts completely against the seating area to form a closed cooling channel.

Method of producing a cooling channel piston for an internal combustion engine

The invention relates to a process for manufacturing a single-piece cooling channel piston, where a piston blank produced by forging is furnished with a circumferential ring-shaped recess between the piston skirts and the piston crown and with an open-bottomed cooling channel in the area of a piston ring belt, where to increase the surface guidance area of the piston skirts it is envisioned that a component extending this piston ring belt is welded on below the piston ring belt.
