The invention relates to im pistons, particularly for use in pumps and kindred devices, althoughthe piston may be used in amo-dified form in som'eftypes of engines. a
My invention has for its primary object the provision of a novel compressible sheet metal piston member, adapted to expand from pressure and bear against the Wall of the Cylinder in which said piston is used.
Another object in my invention. is to proyide a metal piston adapted to prevent the lay-passing of pressure between the cylinder Welland-piston Without the use of piston rings or kindred devices.

The piston is of cup-shape, being pressed from suitable metal and having a flared rim. Thelcompression of the metal of the rim prouces minute or microscopic folds, as suggested in Fig. 8, and the outer surface of the rim is machined oil on the line 11, as'indicated in Fig. 3, so as to remove the outer folds. The machined surface 2 is substantially cylindrical to it the Wall of'thecylinder, and the rim has a feather edge 3 that bears snugly against the cylinder wall. The metal'is pulled across thesplit portions by the drag 'oflthe machining tool, so that the severed edges of the folds of m-etalare actually interlapped; This not only seals the edge of the piston against leakage. but assists the expansion and provements' in ption proceeds, and the piston is y the drawings, in which,
