[Prior Art] In order to improve the combustion efficiency by insulating the combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine, ceramics are used for the piston, as disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Application No. 55-6479, for example. It is known that a piston crown made of ceramics is stacked on top of a skirt part made of ceramics with a heat insulating sheet sandwiched therebetween, and the piston crown part is joined with bolts. However, since the heat capacity of the piston crown is large and the contact area with the skirt is large, if the combustion chamber becomes high temperature due to insulation, the heat load on the skirt will also increase, which may cause seizure of the piston rings. be.

Moreover, in the one disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 58-25552, the piston is composed of a piston crown, a holding member, and a skirt, and is separated into two upper and lower stages between the piston crown and the holding member. Two flat and wide seal members, an inner and an outer one, are interposed on the overlapping surfaces. A gap is formed between the two seal members by an annular groove formed on the lower surface of the piston crown, but since these seal members have a large contact area, heat transfer from the piston crown to the holding member is difficult. It cannot be said that it is sufficient to suppress the Further, the above-mentioned piston has a complicated shape and is difficult to mold, and stress concentration and thermal stress are likely to occur due to the tightening of the bolts that connect the piston crown to the skirt, resulting in problems in terms of strength.

[Means for Solving the Problems] In order to achieve the above object, the structure of the present invention is such that the outer circumference of the piston crown made of ceramic is attached to the outer circumferential upper surface of the skirt portion made of metal and the pillar protruding from the central upper surface. The end wall of the cylindrical part provided on the lower side surface and the lower center surface are overlapped to form an annular heat insulating air layer between the skirt part and the piston crown, and between the column of the skirt part and the end wall of the cylindrical part. In this method, a heat insulating gasket and a spacer ring having an annular groove on the upper surface are stacked one on top of the other, sandwiched between them, and fastened with bolts and nuts.
