Abstract
A scraper ring for a piston includes a top surface, a bottom surface, an inner surface, and an outer surface. The top surface has a first planar portion and a first angled portion. The bottom surface has a second planar portion and a second angled portion. The second angled portion is configured to slidably contact the first angled portion to adjust a diameter of the scraper ring. The inner surface connects the top surface to the bottom surface. The outer surface is opposite to the top surface and is configured to form 360 degrees of contact with a wall of a cylinder to substantially limit an amount of oil entering a combustion chamber of the cylinder.
