FIG. 1 shows an embodiment of the present invention. As in the reciprocating engine shown in FIG. 4, a piston 2 having a piston ring 4 fitted in a groove 3 on the outer peripheral portion is provided in a cylinder liner 1. In a configuration in which the cylinder liner 1 is reciprocally accommodated, temperature measuring ends 6 are attached to a plurality of circumferential positions (two facing each other in the embodiment) of the cylinder liner 1, and the temperature measuring ends 6 are connected to the cylinder liner. 1 is connected to a computing unit 7 which detects the temperature distribution based on the wall surface temperature measurement result and detects the circumferential displacement of the piston ring 4, and the fixation of the piston ring 4 can be monitored by the circumferential displacement of the piston ring 4.

As shown in FIG. 2, the piston ring 4 always has a gap (cut) 4a due to its assembly structure, and the combustion gas leaks from this gap 4a.
The temperature of the wall portion of the cylinder liner 1 corresponding to this becomes high. On the other hand, it is known that the piston ring 4 normally causes circumferential displacement with respect to the groove 3 of the piston 2 and the cylinder liner 1. Therefore, if the position of the highest temperature portion of the wall surface of the cylinder liner 1 is known, the position of the mating port 4a of the piston ring 4 can be known, and if the position of this mating port 4a stops in the circumferential direction, the piston ring 4 will be fixed. Can be detected.

A concrete procedure for monitoring the fixation of the piston 2 based on the above construction will be explained. For example, as shown in FIG. 3A, the combination of the cylinder liner 1 and the piston 2 is made into an X-axis and a Y-axis which are orthogonal to each other. When the temperature measuring ends 6 are located at the points A and B on the inner wall of the cylinder liner 1 on the Y-axis and the points A and B have the same temperature, the piston ring 4 It can be seen that the abutment 4a is at point C or point D on the X axis. On the other hand, when the temperature at the point A is higher than that at the point B, the mating port 4 of the piston ring 4
It can be seen that a is in the quadrant I between points A and C or the quadrant IV between points A and D. Therefore, by measuring the temperature at the points A and B, the temperature transition as shown in (B) of FIG. 3 is obtained, and the temperature distribution between the points A and B is obtained by the computing unit 7 by this measurement. The moving state of the abutment 4a of the piston ring 4 is grasped from the moving state of No. 4 and the presence or absence of the sticking of the piston ring 4 is determined.

In the above, since the measurement is made at two points, the position of the abutment 4a of the piston ring 4 cannot be discriminated between the I and IV quadrants and between the II and III quadrants, but it should be measured at three or more points. For example, the position can be specified over the entire circumference. That is, if there is one temperature measurement point, it cannot be determined in a short period of time whether the temperature has risen due to seizure or the temperature has risen due to the passage of the mating port 4a of the piston ring 4, so if seizure has occurred. Will be a serious accident. If there are two temperature measurement points, 1
Although a phase shift of 80 ° cannot be discriminated, it is possible to discriminate the presence or absence of circumferential displacement of the piston ring 4 with respect to the groove 3 and the cylinder liner 1 by passing through the highest temperature portion. Furthermore, if there are three or more temperature measurement points. For example, the position of the abutment 4a can be specified over 360 °.

Therefore, from the above temperature distribution, it is detected that the piston ring 4 is stuck and the circumferential relative motion with respect to the cylinder liner 1 is stopped, and when this period is longer than the preset period, the cylinder liner 1 As a sign that the lubrication state of the piston ring 4 will change to cause a seizure accident, a warning is issued to stop the engine and take appropriate measures. As a result, before the abnormal wear actually occurs, it is possible to detect the presence or absence of the abnormality without requiring a skilled person.

As described above, according to the sticking monitoring device for a piston ring for a reciprocating engine of the present invention, it is possible to obtain the temperature distribution based on the transition of the wall surface measured temperature at a plurality of circumferential positions of the cylinder liner. With this configuration, it is possible to catch the stop (sticking) of the circumferential movement of the piston ring that occurs before the seizure occurs between the cylinder liner and the piston ring. Since various measures can be taken to prevent serious accidents from occurring and the judgment can be made based on the change in temperature rather than the absolute value of temperature as in the past, it is possible to predict the occurrence of seizure without skill. It has an excellent effect such as being able to reliably detect
