Abstract
A play-free oil scraper ring has a cross section with a running surface leg having at least one scraper web that is situated on a running surface, an upper piston ring flank leg that is connected to the running surface leg, and the upper surface of which forms an upper piston ring flank. A lower piston ring flank leg is likewise connected to the running surface leg, the lower surface of which forms a lower piston ring flank. The upper and/or the lower piston ring flank leg are/is elastic, taper(s) inwardly in the radial direction, and their/its piston ring flank(s) essentially form(s) a conical surface in an uninstalled state. The uninstalled piston ring has an axial height that exceeds a width of a piston ring groove for which the piston ring is intended.
