Abstract
In a piston for piston machines comprising a hollow body, open at least at its free end, having an axial cavity in which there is a filler piece at least partly filling the latter and consisting of a material of lower specific gravity than the material of the piston, said filler piece being secured in the cavity and being held axially in the cavity by a locking element arranged at the free end of the hollow body and a spring arranged between the locking element and the filler piece, the filler piece is inserted axially and the axial securing and locking is effected solely by the spring, which is pretensioned by the locking element to such an extent that it acts against the filler piece with a spring force greater than the maximum inertial forces of the filler piece acting against the spring to be expected when in operation.
